2 oranges, unpeeled and thinly sliced
1 tsp. salt
1 (15 1/4 oz.) can pineapple chunks, undrained
1 (16 oz.) can sliced peaches, undrained
1 (16 oz.) can pear halves, undrained
1 (16 oz.) can apricot halves, undrained
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. white vinegar
3 (3-inch) sticks cinnamon
7 whole cloves
1 (3 oz.) pkg. cherry flavored gelatin

Cut orange slices in half. Combine oranges and salt in a large saucepan; add water to cover. Bring to boil, cook 5 minutes; drain well and set aside.

Drain canned fruits, combining and reserving enough juice to measure 2 1/2 cups, adding water if necessary. Set fruit aside. Combine reserved juice, sugar, and remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring until gelatin dissolves; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes.

Layer canned fruits and orange slices in a large bowl. Pour gelatin mixture over fruit; cover and refrigerate 8 hours. Stir and serve with a slotted spoon. Yield 8-10 servings.
