PUMPKIN oENTERPIEeEt OF GRAPE PAPER
For a thing Of apparently so stolid
a nature the pumpkin lends itself to
an astonishing number of decorative
effects. Inventive hostesses are con-
stantly finding new uses for it at
Thanksgiving festivities. One young
married woman used a middle sized
specimen last year as a foundation for
a lovely centerpiece for her table.
There were fifteen guests. These
and her husband and herself made
seventeen at table. She cut seventeen
tiny holes in the pumpkin and in each
hole stuck a long stemmed yellow
chrysanthemum, pushing 1T in SO that
the flower rested on the pumpkin rind.
The centerpieee looked like an inn
mense fluffy chrysanthemum and was
much admired. II fewer flowers are

chosen. Very novel and effective is the
pumpkin ~centerpiece e In the Illus
t~ration. Grape paper and artificial au-
tunan leaves are the materials en-
ployed. A wooden standard not unlike
those used for holding Christmas
trees is the base from which arises a

table TO the chandelier, twined with

GHosTLY BUTTERFLIES.
A Species In British Guiana Whose
Wings Are Transparent.

A Species In British Guiana Whose
Wings Are Transparent.
In sfOur Search For a Wilderness
Mr.. William Beebe of the New York
geological park describes his first
sight of the transparent butterfly
Hoetera piera-of British Guiana, an
insect through whose outstretched
wings any substance on which 1t rests
can be clearly seen.
AS we crossed q swirling creek on
the trunk of a mighty fallen tree
something fluttered ahead. We could
not see what 1t a Closer we came,
and still the object remained indis-
tinct. We seemed to see u butterfly,
and yet that appeared impossible. AT
last we marked 1T down on a fern
frond and crept up until our eyes
were within two feet of it. Nothing
was visible but the graceful lacework
OF the frond until a slanting beam Of
sunlight struck it, and there, close
before us, was the ghost of a butter
fly.
1t spread fully three inches, but was
wholly transparent, save for three tiny
spots of azure neal the margin Of each
hind wing.
AS we looked it drifted to a double
headed flower of scarlet, and when 1t
alighted the scarlet of the flower and
the green Of the leaf were as distinct
as If seen through thin mica, and the
faint gray haze of the insects wings
vas marked only by the indistinct
yenation.
The appearance of this ghostly but
terfiy amid the silence and awe inspir-
ing stiffness of the reeking jungle was
most impressive.

WHAT TO EAT.

Salmon, canned, or Il ono Ia for
tunate enough to live where they may
be procured fresh, are one OF our
most satisfactory fish. They are SO
many nice ways of serving 1t that a
few may be reminders. AS a salad
with q chopped pickle and a bit OF Gel
cry and dressing 1t is universally liked.
Salmon L~oafs--Shred with q fork
a can of salmon, pour off the oil and
set aside. Add n egg, three-fourths
of a cup Of milk. salt, two tablespoons
fuls of butter, and three-fourths OF q
cup of bread crumbs. Mold In a loaf,
put into a pan and pour over the oil:
bake half an hour and serve with to-
mato sauce. A cup of strained tomato
seasoned with red pepper, cloves and
onion. Pour around the leaf and
serve.
When the fresh fish Is ~obtafnable,
which i, Of course, so very superior
to the canned, try broiling a salmon
steak. Dry 1t well, and dredge with
-four, then lay on a wellbuttered
broiler or gridiron. II using An iron,
turn with a broad-hladed knife and
an egg whisk on top to prevent its
breaking. When cooked to q light
brown, lay on q hot platter, season
with pepper and salt and serve at
once.
Salmon corquettess-These may be
made from leftover salmon when 1t
has been served plain. To half 9 can
| of salmon add a cup of bread crumbs
and pepper and salt. Mix two mashed
| potatoes with the salmon and the
white of an egg, we'll beaten. Roll
In egg and crumbs and fry in deep
fat.
Salmon served with maearoni makes
a good dish; also with rice.
Baked Salmon--Take a small can OF
salmon, three eggs and two tablespoon
fuls of butter. Drain the salmon.
| flake carefully, season with salt and
pepper and mix with the three eggs,
~hard-cooked and chopped fine. and n
and a fourth cups OF bread crumbs,
Soften with a half cup Of milk or
water, add the butter and torn into
