Cut white stalks of celery into small pieces.
Mix the celery and scallops--half as much celery as scallops--with mayonnaise or boiled dressing, and shape in a mound.

Mask the mound with a thin coating of mayonnaise.

With large-sized capers outline a design on each of the four sides of the mound, fill these with whites of eggs, cooked and chopped fine.

Ornament with figures cut from slices of boiled beets.

Fill in the spaces around the designs with capers, and garnish with green celery leaves and white stalks of celery, fringed.

Scrape off the skin and remove the bones; squeeze over them a little lemon juice.
