1 1/3 cups sugar sifted 7 times, 1 cup flour sifted 7 times, whites of 7 eggs, yolks of 5 eggs, 1/3 tsp. cream of tartar, 1 tsp. lemon extract. Using a wire egg beater, beat whites until light, add cream of tartar, then beat in very slowly the sugar. Beat the yolks until very thick and add slowly to whites. Flavor and fold in the flour. Bake in ungreased pan 45 min. The success of this cake depends on the oven which must be very slow. The cake must rise to the top without browning, in the 1st 20 min. Invert pan and allow to drop out when cold. - Mrs. J. W. Kassel.
