JELLIED CHICKEN.
Cook six chickens in a small quantity of water, until the meat will part from
the bone easily; season to taste with salt and pepper; just as soon as cold
enough to handle, remove bones and skin; place meat in a deep pan or mold, just

nearly full. To the water left in the kettle, add three-fourths of a box of
Coxe's gelatine, dissolved in a little warm water, and boil until it is reduced

cut with a very sharp knife and serve. The slices will not easily break up if
