THANKSGIVING TURKEY.

How to Prepare che nlFd for the Oven
Toothsome Dressing.
Draw the turkey and rinse with sew
eral waters. Prepare q dressing Of
bread crumbs, mixed with butter, pep
per, salt, thyme and wet with hot
water or milk. Add the beaten yolks
Of two eggs. Mince dozen oysters
and stir into the dressing, and, il you
are partial to the taste, wet the bread
crumbs with the oyster liquor. FIJI
the body Of the turkey, and sew it up
with q strong thread. Dredge It with
-four before roasting, and haste often,
say every fifteen minutes; at first with
butter and water, afterward with tho
gravy in the drippingpan. After lay
ing the turkey in tho pan. put in tea
cup Of hot water. Many roast always
upon grating placed In the pan. In
that case the boiling water steams the
under part Of tho fowl, and prevents
the skin from drying too fast or crack
ing. Roast to . fine brown, and II it
threatens to darken too rapidly, lay a
sheet Of white paper over it until the
lower part Il also done. Stew the
chopped giblets in just enough water
to cover them, and when tho turkey is
lifted from the pan add these with the
water in which they were boiled to the
drippings. Thicker with . spoonful Of
Drowned flour, wet first with cold wa
ter to prevent Jumping; boil up once
and pour into the gravy boat If the
turkey is very fat. skim the drippings
well before putting in the giblets.
Serve with cranberry sauce. Some al
ways lay fried oysters in the dish
around the turkey. In roasting. II
your fire is brisk, allow about ten min
utes to pound; but it will depend
largely upon the turkeys age whether
or not this rule holds good.-Home.

THE NAPOLEON REVIVAL.


why the Emperor IL the Most Popular
Character In History.
Within the past year there has been
q revival of interest in the career of
Napoleon Bonaparte that il almost
phenomenal. In literature he has fig
ured in the pages of memoirs and REM
iniscences by those who came into
more and less intimate contact with
him. In art not only has he been po-
tent inspiration to modern painters
and sculptors, but he has made price,
less all pictorial records Of his time. In
the drama he poses rs the most pictur-
esque figure that has been brought
upon the stage within the century.
Personal relics Of the man are held as
sacred and beyond all price. As Paul
Bourget aptly says, Napoleon has
hypnotized the French people again. !"
In France the sting of defeat after
the Franco-Prussian war turned the
thoughts Of all to their period of great
est glory, and 50 it needed but time to
see Napoleon enshrined as an idol. An
equally logical explanation is found
for the most notable feature Of the Ma
poleon revival in this country.
The Csntury's life of the emperor was
projected five or six years ago, before
anyone could have foreseen the pres
emit attitude Of the public mind. It
was undertaken solely with the idea
that Napoleon was one Of the greatest,
most forceful and picturesque charac-
tiers in the entire range of history, and
that hitherto he had been inadequate
ly represented. For that reason Prof.
William NJ. Sloane, the greatest Amer
lean student Of French history, was
commissioned to write the life. and
his years Of study among unpublished
archives have brought out his COM
pleted labor at the most opportune mo-
ment. And Prof. Sloane shows us .
new Napoleon, devourer of books, an
unsuccessful literary aspirant, an inef-
iectual Corsican political agitator, but
the new Napoleon certainly makes the
old Napoleon more easily compre-
hended-

There b considerable difference Of
opinion rs to the necessity to the health
Of sleeping In bed placed north and
south. The old-fashionedi idea that the
currents Of electricity going from pole
to pole affect the sleeper Is now sup
posed to be superstition.
Yet tho habit that most OF rs have
acquired Of placing our beds wherever
it Is possible with the head to tho
north will probably cling to us. One
thing, however, that il Of importance
Is that the bed should not be placed
against the wall, but should be accessi-
BILE on both sides. The old fashion Of
placing the bed In an above, which
cannot be ventilated as well As . large
room, is considered to be an unhygienic
one. An excellent reason why : bed
should not be placed against the wall
Is that the person who sleeps At the
rear OF the bed Is likely to have his
face, during sleep, 80 near the wall
that his breath. striking the wall, will
be rebreathed again.
So large q portion Of existence II
necessarily spent In sleep that the To-
cation Of the bed, the bed covering and
bedding and the furniture Of the bed.
room should be the subject Of consid-
Grafton and thought. As It is, too
often this is the last room considered.
In many families q good-sized closet,
with no opening into the outer air, Is
considered good enough for . bedroom.
Not only should the bedroom be thor
oughly ventilated and exposed to the
rays Of the sun, If this Is possible, but
the bedclothing should be taken Of
and hung In the air and sun for several
hours before the bed is made up. Tho
fashion Of the double bed is rapidly
passing out of use. Where two per-
sons occupy the same room two single
beds, or twin beds placed side by side,
take its place, for two persons can
rarely sleep together without ono Of
them feeling i'll effects. It Is a most
injurious practice for child to sleep
with an adult, but it is equally bad for
strong, vigorous child to sleep with q
delicate, nervous one. The stronger
person may sometimes draw strength
from the weaker, but usually this il
reversed, and the more vigorous person
is the sufferer.-N. Y. Tribune.

We will be q healthier and happier
race when the double bed Is banished.
The light iron or brass bedstead, with
a mattress that can be easily aired and
kept clean. is the bed that ought to be
generally used. And the heavy COM
forter ought to be banished with the
double bed. for 1t belongs to the log
cabin and the back woods. The bed
covering par excellence is . light
weight blanket that can be frequently
washed and kept soft and white. Tuck
ing the bedclothes tightly in is anoth-

arctic wilds. The practice Of making

tight is as unhealthy Is It Is unclean.
