Cover one-half box of gelatin with one-half cup of cold water and let soak at least ten minutes. Place over the fire in a double boiler one pint of milk; separate five eggs, beat the yolks, add to them three-quarters cup of sugar and beat again until very light; stir these into the scalded milk, stir a moment, remove from the fire and stir in the softened gelatin, continue stirring until it is dissolved. Turn into a basin, set this in another basin containing chipped ice. Stir until quite cold, then add one cup of orange juice and continue stirring until it stirs heavily, then fold in carefully the stiffly beaten whites of five eggs. Turn into a mould and place on ice for three hours.
