THE COMPLETE JAM CUPBOARD. By Mrs. C. F. Leyel. (Routledge.

Is. 6d.) THIS book contains many recipes for all kinds of jams, jellies, marmalades and preserves, with an explanation of the virtues of each. Such delightful dishes as elderberry jelly, cowslip cheese, quince jelly and sloe jam take us back to the quiet places of the country where these dishes are made. The modem housewife could wish for no better guide in the choice of conserves rich with juices for her jam-making.
