 Turkey without stufiing is an inno- walton slow to win the approval of con servative housewives, but 1t is claimed by the best authorities on cookery that turkey. like game. should never he stuffed If its finest flavor Is to be pre- served. Dress as usual and place a large spoonful of butter upon the breast. Put ln a very hot oven for thirty minutes that the outside may scar over at once and retain the juice. Diminish the heat and haste often with the butter and fat that cooks from the fowl. allowing twenty minutes cooking to each pound of turkey, not counting the first half hour. Should 1t be ncces. sary to turn the turkey while cooking use towel. Never stick 1t with fork or allow the juice to escape. Sprinkle with salt when nearly done. For the gravy put the gizzard. heart and liver on the fire in n quart of wa ter and cook until tender; then rem ,yS and chop finely. When the turkey is done. remove 1t to the serving dish pour all but tablespoonful of fat from the pan. add a tablespoonful of fiouI and cook for three minutes; then add the water In which the giblets were cooked, of which there should be q pint.

Mrs. Blake's
 Thanksgiving

"Oh. dear me. suzi If that hain't too badr Mrs. Betsey Blake cried in al- most fearful vexation as she stepped backward from the stove and with a rueful face regarded a thin stream of water trickling from a crack low down on the side of the wash boiler and sputtering into a cloud of steam on the hot stove. "John." she called in a voice full of trouble. "the Oilers leakin' like mad. an it looks as if just nothin' short of tinker could stop it."
 Her husband came into the kitchen from the woodshed at leisurely pace and with an air of confidence in his ability to cope with any number of leaky boilers. But as he examined the irregular Assure his face took on a puz- zled and then a more serious expres- sion.
 Maybe you might stick rag into it," he suggested.
 "No. not in such shaped hole as that" she said decisively and began dipping the water out into a pail You've got to take it to the village an have 1t soddered. an that's all there is about 1t. It'n just spoil the day. so I can't wash afore tomorrow, an thatll put back my Thanksgivin' work. Hain't it too bad? Dear me, l most wish we hadn't asked father an mother an Abigail to come"
 Well, I'm sorry it's happened so, but never mind. You'll fetch things round all right. You gen'ally do," said he. so confidently that her spirits rose above the present disappointment
 'T can do some of tomorrow's work today an be so much ahead" she said, and before he was on his way she had half pumpkin pared and stewing in the place of the boiler.
 Next morning the mended boiler was reinstated. By noon the delayed wash ing was completed. and Betsy Blake looked out complacently from her be- lated dinner upon the long array of spotless clothes futtering from the swaying line like triumphant banners. In the afternoon part of the ironing was done. and the next morning she

THANKSGIVING DINNER.
How the Good Housewife Prepare,
 1t In Olden Times.

How the Good Housewife Prepared
 1t In Olden Times.
 Thanksgiving dinner In the olden times made unusual demands even up- on the most efficient housewife. and the serving of dinner to a family party of from twenty-five to fifty persons in a large kitchen of the old fashioned farmhouse was no light task for the mistress. But the result was worth all the trouble entailed In the getting up of such a dinner. and the recollection of the roast turkey. chicken pie, baked Indian and rice buildings, pumpkin and mince pies baked in the old fashioned brick oven, with the other accessories of the Thanksgiving dinner. has proved powerful enough to bring back year after year to such homestead the sons and daughters, the grandchildren. the aunts, uncles and cousins who had gone forth from It to enter into the larger life of the great cities. The brick oven has practically disappeared, but the culinary skill of the New England housewife has not, and Thanksgiving dinner Is much the same as of old. Even city folks who prefer course dinner 364 days In the year really well come a return on Thanksgiving to the older style of serving dinner. and It Is this way which generally prevails on this day.

HOW TO COOK THE TURKEY

Some Practical Advice Given by a
 New York Chef.
 There is a chef In one of the large hotels of New York who is famous for his roast turkey. Turkey under his hands comes out not only a beautiful brown, but of a delicious flavor quite different from any other turkey that ever was seen. The turkey meat Is positively rich, and even the white meat that is generally dry has moist. spicy taste. This Is his recipe for roast turkey:
 Clean the turkey with as little ham, ding as possible and rinse with wa ter in which a little baking soda has been dissolved. Now break up about half pint of bread crumbs. and into the crumbs chop two links of pork sausage. Stuf the turkey with this mixture and just before putting into the oven bind salt pork on the breast of the turkey. Remove the pork just before the turkey Is taken from the oven. When the meat is carved. its flavor will be found very superior. This is particularly to be recommended for the Thanksgiving turkey. which. with so many other dainties rivaling 1t, must be very appetizing to be enjoyed.

BILLS THANKSGIVING.
He Thought He Had a Great Deal C
 Re Thankful For.


 "waal. Bill, what hev ye got to be thankful fur todayg asked Grizzly George as he ran across Wild Bill In the Prairie Dog saloon on Thanksgiving day.
 What hev got to be thankful fur?" echoed Bnl, looking at the others in as tonishment. Why, fur lots of things in course. an should think ye orter know 1t too. Hain't the sheriff at this minit got a warrant fur me in his pock. ct, butts afeord to arrest mel"
 'Yaas, reckon that's so, Bill"
 "Waal, then. hadn't orter be thank ful to hev sich reputashun as bad man? Then look at my record, will yer? I've held up forty-two stages, bin sent to jail ifty-six times. escaped twenty-one times, shct four sherifrs, licked scores of galoots an robbed more stsres in the state than ye kin count. Hain't 1t sunthin' to be thank full fur to be alive today to enjoy sich a grand reputashun an own sich a bewtiful recordE"
 "Yaas. that's so. Bill-that's SO"
 "Then take a look at my family, win ye? Thar's my son Joe. who's 'sarvin' five vars fur hoss stealin'. Haln't 1t sunthin' to he thankful fur to be the father of sich promIsln' boyT'
 ''It sartinly ar. Bill." agreed Grizzly George. ...

an not keep Thanksgivin' in her own home? That's ridic'louser."
 "Why, Mis- Blake, she's keepin' 1t to- day at her own home," said Mandy, staring with still wider eyes at her hostess. ''rhis is Thanksgivin' dayr'
 "lt hain'ty' Mrs. Blake made this assertion stoutly, but she was begin nlng to feel sickening qualms of doubt. Ut sartin Is, Mis- Blake, cause mas roastin' three chickens an we're all to home. an oh. my, you'd ought to smell 1t to Deacon Adamses as come byw

  'tain't his folks! There's mince an ap- pie pies enough. Mandy. you git one of each kind an take lem home. But what shall I doT'
 She put on a brave face to mask her modification as she went out to meet her guests, whom she wished to see away in spite of her longing to see them. But when she invited them in- to the unready house and tried to make joke of her mistake and saw the look of disappointment steal over the faces of her sharp set travellers her feigned laughter broke into genuine sobs.
 Just then John Blake suddenly ap- peared in the midst of the depressed group bearing the borrowed turkey which in the nick of time made a joke of the mistake and turned fasting to feasting.-Forest and Stream.
