Turkey Dishes for
the Day After Christmas

After your Christmas dinner you
will find probably that you have a
goodly portion of turkey left. This
has happened a great many times be-
fore, and as a result many ways have
been devised for preparing these left
over scraps of turkey meat. This
does not mean the meat can be simply
arranged on a platter and eaten as it
is.
A salad made of the white meat OF
turkey is as good, if not better, than
chicken salad. Take one cup or
turkey meat, rather coarsely chopped;
one cup of celery, also rather coarsely
chopped; the whites of three hard
boiled eggs, also chopped. Put the
yolks of the hard-boiled eggs into a
bowl and mash them over, and then

The above advertisement In a Lon
don PAPER was the talisman which
drew ms 20 Sea Vale.
-hc Knoll was a low, iTresul-r Suilt
house. ivy-clad, and nesting at the
foot Of a larch-crOwned hill. The in
side OF the house proved exceedingly
comfortable. although the entrance
was somewhat mean, there being only
a small hall, with the foot of the
stairs close 10 the door on one side,
and a long. narrow window on the
other. This was exactly opposite the
diningrOOm door. which room was or
rather unique shape. having an archsd
alcOve facing the door. Had the
alCOve been at either end of the room
it would have given length, but so
placed it seemed meaningless and use
less. except for the purpose OF keeping
out Of the way a high, cumbersome,
antique cabinet, which otherwise
would have greatly trespassed on the
very limited space.
The Knoll was the property OF Mrs.
Marsh. but she had not cared to live
there since the death OF her husband
five years ago.
The absurdly low rent and the dis
Covery that The Knoll had changed
tenants zine times within FIVE years
made my father dubious whether this
seemingly charming haven OF rest
might not prove defective in the
matter OF drains or water supply.
We went In at midsummer, and by
Christmas were so well satisfied that
we had fallen upon a bargain that my
father was about making arrange
ments for purchasing, when an in
Cident occurred which altered our
desire TO possess this picturesque
cottage.
IL was Christmas eve. I and my
sister. Madge. were putting up ever

shadowy form of the dead man. The
agent took one glance, and, putting up
his arms to ward off the dreadful
sight, exclaimed in husned, Mortified
tones:
1T is he, sir, il is Mr.. Marsh!"
Explanation there was none. Sleep
in that house another night not one of
us would. Late though it was, we
walked into Sea Vale and took rooms
until such time as we could remove
our belongings. The agent wrote Mrs.
Marsh a full account of what he
himself witnessed.
The following day brought him a
letter from Mrs. Marsh, who COM
menced by expressing her thankful
ness to have at last discovered the
reason why she could not keep a
tenant. Having no portrait of her
husband she had a cast taken after
death and a bust executed by a we'll
known sculptor This bust she felt
sure was not a thing strangers would
care TO have about. Therefore when
she let The Knoll furnished, it was
placed on the top of the oak cabinet
facing the dining-room door. That
it was the reflection of this bust
thrown upon the hall window she had
but little doubt. She requested the
agent to ask my father to go with
him to The Knoll and see for himself.
We are still living at our beautifui
cottage, and often we congratulate
ourselves upon the fortunate dis
covery of an optical illusion, which,
upon the removal of the bust. happily
freed us from the presence of "The
Man at the Window"
