THREE FAAlOUS THANKSGIVING DISHES

Select a plump hen turkey Weighing
ten or twelve pounds; SINCE. draw and
wash it. Prepare the following dress
ing: Put into bowl one quart of
grated stale bread and a cupfdl Of
cream or milk. Cover and allow 10
stand for perhaps an hour Add to
/ this one teaspoonful of chopped pars-
ley. half teaspoonful of pepper a
level tablespoonful of salt, two tea
spoonfuls of finely chopped onions, four
.ablespoonfuls of butter and two well
beaten eggs. Mix well together and add
a pint of whole oysters. Stuff the crop
and body of turkey, but not too solidly.
Now, If one does not mind a very little
extra trouble for the sake of an in
comparable dish on Thanksgiving day
treat the national bird in the following
manner. Make a paste of flour and
water OF consistency to roll out easily.
Roll out into good sized sheet, take
the turkey that has been stuffed and
well tied into shape, and cover it with
this paste and then sew into a tight
blanket of cheese cloth. Put this into
a Kettle, just cover it with water and
smother it for two hours. not allowing
II to come to the boil. Do this in the
early morning; then set it off the stove
and leave 1t i'll the water until entirely
cold. Then take the turkey out of its
blanket, gently rub the paste off, and
rub the whole surface with butter, pep
per and salt. Place the turkey on it's
back in a pan and put in a cup of hot
water; then put into a fairly hot oven
and roast for about one hour and a
half. or until it is a rich tender brown.
Baste continually. A wine glass of wine
added 10 the water in which it is baked
gives delicious flavor. Little linked
sausages grouped around the sides of
the platter make a delightful garnish:
or sausages alternated with little
groups of mushrooms or sweet potatoes
that have been boiled and fried.

For this delicacy a quart of cream. n
pint of milk, a pint of oyster LIQUOR
are necessary, with two tablespoonfuls
OF butter. two tablespoonfuls of flour
teaspoonful of salt. a saltspoon of
white pepper, q dash of cayenne and
two good full stalks of celery.
Put the cream and milk in a double
boiler and set over the stove. Put the
oyster liquor on to scald, and chop the
celery to very fine mince and put over
the fire in cold sailed water When
the oyster liquor is at boiling point put
seventy-five large selected oysters into

them out and throw into ice water and

and then stir this mixture into the

THANKSGIVING TID-BITS.

A dainty to serve with one course of
the Thanksgiving dinner is alligator or
arveado pear. 1t may be served with
the traditional roast pig, which by the
way, now has small ear of red corn in
its mouth, instead of a lemon.
Alligator pears ase imported and ex-
pensive-perhaps 20 cents each-but
they are of no mean proportions, and
one goes long ways. This point is one
of the new things we acquire with our
West and East Indian possessions.
Cut the pear across in thin slices and
lay on a glass dish: dress with oil, salt
and tarragon-a French dressing, and
there you are You both please your
guests and astonish them, If the morsel
has not before been tasted by them,
and it will be quite safe to offer a small
KlondilSe as a prize for the one who
can tell what he is eating.
If afternoon tea is served before din
ner, this pear may here be used with
great success for sandwiches-indeed
its mission seems to lie in this direc-
ton. Butter thinnest slices of bread
but do not spread it thick Have a
paste prepared of the mashed alligator
and spread this upon the bread, but do
not forget to add a trifie of nutmeg.
Cut the sandwiches in diamonds, stars
or squares, and serve with your cup of

court there is still another very ia
nous vine called the Red Hamburg
1t produces on an average 1900 to 1000
branches and the number has even been
known to amount to 2,200.
Another remarkable fact concerning
this vine is, that its age is equal to

growth may be reckoned in its prime.
