Red Apple Salad
Make apple cups of bright red apples and put them into water containing a little lemon juice and set aside until time to fill them.

Garnish with red maraschino cherries that have been drained and stuffed with blanched hazelnuts. Serve on lettuce leaves with wafers which have been spread with cream cheese mixed with tomato catsup.
New Apple Salad
Beat one-half a cup of double cream, a tablespoonful of lemon juice, and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt until firm throughout. Cook three apples cored and pared in a syrup of equal measures of sugar and water with two or three cloves and an inch of stick cinnamon, and set aside to become thoroughly chilled. Chop fine four maraschino or candied cherries and eight or ten pecan nut meats or blanched almonds. Wash three small heads of lettuce, remove the outer leaves, and cut the stalks so that the heads will stand level. Place the lettuce on plates with an apple in the center of each. Mix the nuts and cherries through the cream and pour it over the apples.
