He took the great, round world in his hand, so to speak, familiarly, contemptuously, and it seemed no larger than the seed of a Maraschino cherry in a table d'hote grape fruit. He spoke disrespectfully of the equator, he skipped from continent to continent, he derided the zones, he mopped up the high seas with his napkin. With a wave of his hand he would speak of a certain bazaar in Hyderabad.
"That was an uncommon good dinner we had yesterday, ma'am," the artful Harry broke out. "Their clear soup's better than ours. Moufflet will put too much taragon into every thing. The supreme de volaille was very good uncommon, and the sweets were better than Moufflet's sweets. Did you taste the plombiere, ma'am and the maraschino jelly? Stunningly good that maraschino jelly!"
Everybody beamed upon me in the streets, and there arrived multitudinous little gifts at my house choice wines, tie-pins, game, cigars, ebony walking-sticks, confectionery, baskets of red mullets, old prints, Capodimonte ware, candied fruits, amber mouthpieces, maraschino all from donors who plainly desired to remain anonymous.
Wax tapers, set in silver candlesticks, shed their chastened brightness on the damask of the tablecloth and the remains of a cold collation of the rarest delicacy.

An extra half pint of cream may be whipped for garnish at serving time, if desired; otherwise, garnish the top with chopped maraschino cherries, and send to the table. This will fill twelve biscuit cases. Pack a two quart bomb glace mold in salt and ice. Remove the lid, and line the mold with a quart of well-made vanilla ice cream.
She felt as if she had known Logotheti all her life, as if she understood him thoroughly and was not displeased that he should understand her. They went into the next room for coffee. 'You used to like my Zara maraschino, said Logotheti to Madame De Rosa. He took a decanter from a large case, filled a good-sized liqueur glass for her and set it beside her cup.
A good fellow, and an honest servant, but so incorrigibly kind-hearted that he is always breaking our rules. I shall have to be serious with him in spite of myself." He poured out a cup of black coffee as he spoke, and set it with a bottle of maraschino and an open box of cigars at my elbow.
Do you think it could possibly have been the maraschino? 'No indeed! Logotheti laughed carelessly. 'You were tired, after the rehearsal. He put the decanter back into the large liqueur case from which he had taken it, shut down the lid, locked it and put the key in his pocket.
Rub up in a mortar one dram of potash with a teaspoonful of the liqueur; when well mixed add it, and then do the same with a dram of alum. Shake well, and in an hour or two filter through thin muslin. It will be ready for use in a a week. Maraschino. Bruise two ounces of cherry kernels and one of bitter almonds; put them in a deep jar with the thin outer rind of twelve oranges and five lemons.
