the Christmas punch bowl wreathed
with holly. The scarlet Christmas bells
made of tissue paper add to the bright
and CHEEKY appearance of the room.
One of the most decorative ways to
finish a table is with ribbons strung
from the chandelier in such a way as
to reach the plates. To the end of each
ribbon can be attached a gift, if it be
no more than a rose.
When the company is seated-and in
the seating there should be the same
attention TO couples as at an ordinary
dinner-then comes the serving of the
feast.
1t is a time honored custom to place
the turkey on the table before the
guests come in or to set forth the
ducks, the geese, the roast of beef or
the loin of pork-whatever may be the
Christmas bird.
But in these later and more pamper-
ed days the stomach rebels against the
sudden plunge into the roast, and the
palate demands a relish-oysters, soup,
fish and goodness knows what all!
The roast zones later, fanked with a
green salad and with vegetables and
with the mound of cranberries.
If the turkey must be present from
the beginning to the end, it is a wise
plan to place him upon a side table.
Here he can be carved and distributed.
Upon the table he is always in the
way, and there is no room nor COM
fort for the arver He, if he so please,
can exhibit his skill from a side table,
and the guests can be served by a serv-
ing maid, who will carry the plates
around.
Every Christmas dinner must have
it's touch of holly.

1t is the custom on Christmas day to
present the stomach with a substantial
gift.
Like other Christmas tokens, 1t should
be well selected, not too rich, certain
~ not oppressively so-a gift that wiz
be well received on sight and pleasant

comes around.
Just as the materials are arranged in
a room, Just so should a Christmas din
ner be planned. Nothing should
crowd, nothing jar. Harmony in
choice and in setting should be dis
played. In a room the furniture occu-
pies the substantial positions, those of
weights; the next strata may be the

pointments to fill in where needed.

yours, like so many others, to be re-
ceived with Indifference or worse, and
ten days after Christmas to be cast
aside and forgotten.
You take no such chance in giving
The Youths Companion for a year.
Did you eve know of a home in
which it came amiss, or of one in
which it was not conspicuous on the
library table or in some ones hands
all through the year?

that sort, and it is worth while to re-
ceive it, too, for The Companion IL

life in its stories and sketches, up
holds the best standards in its arti-
Giles and other contributions, and com
bines the practical and informing with
the entertaining and blood-stirring.

~ balanced, substance and fluff well
combined, acids cut the sweetmeats,
and the drinkables assist all. That is
an ideal dinner.
An American gentleman, visiting a
~Scotchman, partook of dinner at the
latter's shooting box. After the meal,
though no one had drunk much, there
was such a feeling Of fullness that no
one could rise.
"Oh, the shame of it!' said the
American. MY chef would have died
of modification had such a thing hap
pened at my table,"
Below are given recipes for this well
balanced dinner menu:
Celery and Roquefort.
Select short, tender stalks of celery,

Roast Turkey.
Dress, clean, truss and roast a twelve
pound turkey. Remove to hot platter
and garnish with celery tips.

Chop cooked giblets very fine. Split
sixteen common crackers and spread
with butter, allowing one-fourth table
spoonful to each half. Pour over two
and three-fourth cupfuls of stock in
which giblets were cooked. When
crackers have taken up stock add chop.

THE CHRISTMAS DINING ROOM.
How to Decorate It So That the Family
and Guests Alike Are Pleased.

How TO Decorate 1t So That the Family
and Guests Alike Are Pleased.
It goes without saying that holly and
mistletoe nus enter into your scheme
of Christmas decorations. A pretty
idea is to hang the chandelier of the
dining room with green's and holly and
from that carry loosely long ropes of
ground pine to each corner of the room,
thus making a canopy for the table. A
bit of mistletoe skillfully introduced
where all will have to pass under it in
leaving the may add to the fun.
In the center of the table lay a reflec-
tor or FURNISHED copper tray and on
this a glass or copper bowl of holly,
frosted, as though it had just come In
from the wintry fields.
For the favors to be laid down by
the place cards there are tiny earthen
pots with miniature, decorated Christ
mas trees or cute little snow boys, like
the one in the illustration, that may be
bought very reasonably. If candles
are to light the table use red shades
with a bit of holly gummed on each.
Trim your plum pudding with holly,
putting II sprig in the center. Just be-
fore bringing into the ROOF pour a lit
tie brandy around the pudding and
light at the moment of entering. Have
