acceptably it is not possible for her

The Prince of Peace will never

women, and for one pray without

DRESSING FOR
THE TURKEY

Covering the pan when fish is
frying is apt to make the fish soft.
A solid, firm meat, that is at the
same time flaky, is what the good
cook likes.
1t is new wrinkle to serve
marshmallows with hot chocolate.
When the candies are dissolved a
pleasant flavor is given to the
chocolate.
Turkey dressing should be care
fully made. Put the scraps of
bread into pan: stale bread
makes good dressing. Pour water
over it and Immediately drain it
offs. Break the bread lightly, but
do not crush 1t into a soft pulp.
Mix with the broken bread two
eggs, salt and pepper, and a little
sage. Put sufficient butter to sea
son 1t into skillet and when hot
enough, cook one small onion in
the butter. IT onion is objection
able, use sage as a seasoning. Turn
the bread into the skillet and stir
the butter through it, or else pour
the melted butter over the bread.
1t is best, however. to stir it in the
skillet until the bread is warm. Fill
the fowl lightly. DO not add much
salt to any bread dressing, as the
salt which Is in the bread, together
with what is absorbed from the
meat drippings, will season it thor
oughly. BY sailing to taste at first
it Is liable to be too salty.

to know that folded cloth, wet in

Change cloth several times to keep
