You Probably Have
Decided

That you will buy a Fur Garment
this season. Having reached this
decision several other troublesome
questions arise, and with which
you will have to struggle, namely,
the kind, the price, and last, but
not least, where to buy it.
To enable you to decide these
questions promptly, satisfactorily
and inteIIigently we advise you to
CONE RIGHT HERE where your SCI
lection will not be limited to one
or two pieces of fur, but where you
will find the largest assortment OF
our own manufactured Fur Gar
ments and Fur Skins. We are the
only furriers in western Connecti-
cut that sell ready made furs, made
to order and repair.

THE THANKSGIVING DINNER

The bill Of fare must, OF course, COM
prise certain dishes. One trembles to
think what would be the fate of the re-
public If any real liberty were taken with
the menu. But the housekeeper may eX-
ercise her ingenuity in making the old
dishes have a flavor of newness without
interfering too seriously with their time
honored traits. r.. ~.
Soup or no soup at a Thanksgiving din
ner is an open question. At old New Eng
land feasts 1t did not appear, but the per-
sons who think dinner has no claim to
a soup course may serve it. 1t may be
such as one finds only in these United
States, and for which one hungers vainly
in foreign lands. But 1t must not be
eaten too freely. Room must be left
for the other joys in store. OF begin
ming with raw oysters or CLAIMS there
should not be even a thought. 49, r. q.
Whether there Is soup or not, there
should be an oyster pie-a big, generous
pie, baked in deep dish. and served
smoking hot. And just here is another
place for controversy. Shall the pie be
served as separate course, or shall it
come as side dish with the main part
Of the, dinner? The latter is more in
keeping with the style Of the dinner, but
there is one great objection to it. Will
there be room for turkey and vegetables
and pie on the same plate? 1t seems
more than doubtful. In that case, If the
idea of the pie In q course by itself can
not be entertained, there should be a
small hot plate provided that can be put

HOUSEKEEPERS' HELPS

A grape catsup very good to serve with
cold meats is still possible to make these
late autumn days. Wash five pounds Of
grapes that have been steamed before
weighing, put them in a porcelain-lined
kettle, and heat slowly till soft. Rub
through a sieve and return to the fire
with three pounds Of sugar, one pint Of
vinegar, one teaspoonful each of ground
cinnamon, allspice, and black pepper. Boil
for an hour. and bottle while hot.
Peeled, chopped tomato sprinkledt over
lettuce, the whole covered with French
dressing, makes Russian salad.
AS you value your own and your FAM
ily's digestion, don't serve tea with fish.
The tannic acid hardens the fiber and
makes 1t indigestible. 1t should not be
| offered with any form Of fish, shellfsh, or
the articulate animals like Holsters and
crabs. Iced tea and soft-shell crabs for
example, are a combination, that should
be avoided. '.-.,' '..'. *
The delicious flavor which all travellers
in France discover in the coffee Of that
country is got, it lis said, by the addi-
ton of little butter and sugar during
the roasting process. To every three
pounds Of roasting berries a tablespoonful
each of butter and powdered sugar is
added. These in melting, according to
Harper's Bazaar, spread over the beans
| in a thin coating, which holds the: aroma
and contributes caramel flavor that is
delicious and distinctive. - ~. = :
