MARSHMALLOWS (100)

1 envelope Knox sparkling gelatin
1-1/4 cups water
2 cups fine granulated sugar
Few grains salt
1 tsp vanilla

Soak the gelatin in half of the water for five minutes. Put remaining water and sugar in saucepan, bring to boiling and let boil until sirup will spin thread when dropped from tip of spoon. Add soaked gelatin and let stand until partially cooled; then ad salt and flavoring. Beat until mixture becomes white and thick. Pour into granite pans thickly dusted with powdered sugar, having mixture 1 inch in depth. Let stand in cool place until chilled. Turn onto board, cut in cubes and roll in powdered sugar. Nuts, chocolate, fruit juices in place of part of water, or chopped candied fruits may be added. Dates stuffed with this confection are delicious.
