Two cupfuls pulverized sugar sifted four times, one cupful (scant) butter, one cupful sweet milk, two teaspoonfuls (scant) baking powder, three cupfuls flour sifted three times, and twice after baking powder is added; one teaspoonful vanilla, whites of eight eggs. Cream sugar and butter, adding milk and flour - with the baking powder - alternately, then the vanilla, and last, the well beaten whites of the eight eggs. Bake in three layers, or five smaller ones.

Frosting For Above Cake

Four cupfuls pulverized sugar, one small cupful hot water, whites of four eggs. Boil sugar and hot water until it threads or hairs from the spoon. Pour this over the well beaten whites of the eggs, beating until nearly cool, and add one pound of chopped walnuts, and continue beating until cold enough to spread nicely. If desired, do not put nuts in all the icing, but save enough out to cover the top and sides. - Contributed, Williams, Ariz.
