  16      ounces        Dark cherries; canned -- pittd
                        Water
   6      ounces        Cherry jello

Boil apple juice; add jello and dissolve. Drain cherries reserving syrup.
Halve cherries and set aside. Add enough water to reserved syrup

 Remove 2 cups and set aside; keep at room temperature. 
Chill remaining jello mix until partially set. Fold in cherries,
 walnuts and celery into partially set jello. Pour into 6-1/2 cup ring mold.
 Chill until almost firm. Gradually add reserved 2 cups jello to softened
 cream cheese, beating until smooth. Add applesauce.
Spoon mixture over cherry jello mix. Chill until firm.
