too.
Here's idea for hanging the traditional
Xmas stocking.
Last year the hostess of large holiday house
party in the country originated a unique way of
treating an old, old custom, that of hanging the
Christmas stocking.
number of trihes were purchased by the
hostess and wrapped in paper, many of these
being characteristic of the person for whom they
were intended. Then the men and girls of the
party were each given a number of gifts, and
one by one, after the clock had struck twelve,
they entered the library alternately and depos-
tied a gift in each stocking, the names appear
ing over each, but no one was allowed to see
their stocking, this being removed from view dur
ing their presence in the room
Wierd surprises contained in the stock
ing, and the merry-makng that followed proved
conclusively that the hostess had struck a very
responsive cord when she originated this clever
scheme.
Miniature autos, footballs, bowling alleys.
champagne bottles, toy horses, tiny card decks
books, sail boats pictures of actresses, paper
mache telephones and other articles were found
in the stockings, suggesting the pet fad or fancy
of the recipient.
DECORATIONS FOR DINING TABLES
Several attractive tables are shown which will
give the home decorator d few timely sugges
tions.
One for a chlds party, is quite simple, but
effective and sure to captivate their playful fan
ces.
A large square pasteboard box is realistically
painted to form the red and white bricks of
chimney; over the sides are placed shreds of
white cotton. sprnkled with diamond dust. A
little toy Santa Claus is placed within the top.
The chimney stands upon pieces of cotton, also
touched with the sparkling dust. At the base
of the chimney is a toy sleigh, with reindeers the
whole decoration being surrounded by border
of holly
All sorts of miniature trees and oddy-shaped
bushes are smart this winter for table decoration.
They are placed in green wooden boxes and in
brass and copper pots. As decoration they
are quaint and effective Some of these novel
ornaments are in the form of bon bon boxes; the
little trees, with their imitation lid, may be lift
ed out and Just beneath repose the sweet meats,
chocolate waters, French gum drops or any small
candies.

Her family claim her at Christmas time, but her
New Years belongs exclusively to poor and less
fortunate creatures. She provides New Year din
ners for sef-supporting women and girls who
have no homes they can call their own.
To those who cannot afford the broadening in

subscriptions to magazines. She supplies old
ladies in nomeS with needle work, children in hos

faculty of choosing those whose pride prevents
them from seeking charity, but who are made
none the less the happy recipients OF her gener-
osity.

quaintances just such people, but it requires grace

An individual Christmas pie simply little
cake about four inches high and three inches

Several novel ideas for small cakes are given.
A white cake is decorated with haved peanuts
and so arranged as to form the initials of each
little guest. Either a square or circular cutter
may be used. A fanciful cutter is in the form

appropriate for either occasion. Bells fashioned
of crepe paper or immortelles, colored bril-
liant scarlet, suspended from the chandelier
on slender wires, these being bound with sprigs
of holiday greens. From each bell capper may be
extended streamers of scarlet ribbon green's
to each cover and attached to a little metal
bell, to which is attached the name card.
Bells are frequently attached to a wooden
hoop which it suspended wires, one large
bell from the centre. This scheme is easier to
follow than the previous one.
The last table is very simply decorated with a

'of holly leaf. The ic.ng is colored with
green vegetable mixture and little red tea ber-
ries or ball-shaped candies a brilliant scarlet

Another idea which appeals directly to the
little recipient is to make little cakes soft or
crisp, dainty iced and the initials dove in choc-
oate icing.

1t is the unexpected holiday remembrance and
the thought that prompted it, rather than the
mere perfunctory exchange of gifts, which be
tokens the genuine spirit.

1t was Alexander Dumas who declared that
French cookery owes its superiority over that
of other nations only to (the excellence of Frenchl
bouillon." So here let us pause for recipe Of
Frances famous court bullion.
How to Prepare Court BouiIIon
Take one pint of water, one quart of white
wine tablespoonful of butter, bunch of fresh
parsley, a few young onions, one Glove of gar
lie bunch of thyme, one bay leaf, one carrot
and blade of mace-truy formidable collection
of herbal ingredients. Boil the prepared fish in
this bouillon, which may be used several times.
Choose any variety of fish to prepare in this
manner such as trout, salmon, sheepshead or
carp Lobster boiled in court bouillon is especi-
ally rich and savory
The French Revolution improved the condi-
ton of the lower classes, and with this revived
the use of the old domestic meat soup, the pot
au.feu. This had the effect of making the taste
of the nation swerve to the stronge spices and in
cline to a simple, finer diet.
The French cook or chef puts all sorts of tasty
tidbits into the soup pot-bones, remnants of
meat fish, pot liquor, water in which onions
have been boiled, in fact all waters save those Of
beans and potatoes, and the result is that the
Gaelic cook offers the most savory soup imagin'
able.
The French housewife starts her pot-aufeu
soon after breakfast, adding the ingredients grad
