1 lb. granulated sugar
1 lb. butter
10 eggs, separated
1 lb. plain flour
1/2 tsp. mace
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. lemon extract
1 tsp. almond extract
1 tsp. baking powder

Cream butter, add sugar gradually and continue beating; then add egg yolks beaten until thick and lemon colored. Sift flour, baking powder together and add gradually to mixture, beating after each addition. Then add mace and extracts to taste; lastly fold in egg whites which have been beaten until stiff. Beat vigorously for five minutes. Then put into a well-buttered tube pan (or plain baking pan which has been lined with two thicknesses of butter brown paper). Bake in slow oven at 250 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours in tube pan, or 2 hours in lined pan. (If cake seems a little too brown during last part of baking period, place a large piece of brown paper lightly on top of pan for a little while.)
