Instructions: Soak rasins in the rum for 2 or 3 hours. Cream butter and sugar until light, and salt and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Add flour and raisins gradually and blend thoroughly. Butter a cooky sheet and drop the dough by teaspoon, leaving an inch between cookies to allow for spreading. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 7 minutes, and re move immediately from pan to cooling rack.

Makes 35 cookies.
