Danny Sees the Last of His Old
Home.

How Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse
did stare down from the haymow at the
merry huskers stripping the coverings
from the ears of yellow corn in Farmer
Browns barn! Never before had they
seen anything like that. It was all so
strange and those people down there
made such a racket that it frightened
them. And yet they could not remain in
hiding Ever so many times they ran
back under the hay, frightened by sud-
den shouts of laughter. But in a few
minutes they would be back again with
little eyes stretched as wide as they could
be stretched that they might miss moth
ing of what was going on below.
SO it happened that they were looking
down when Farmer Browns Boy held
up something. See, what I've found!''
he cried.
What Is ito Oh. isn't it cute?" cried
a pretty girl, quite the prettiest girl, if
Farmer Browns Boy is to be believed.
"Oh, Danny whispered Nanny. "Oh
Danny What do you suppose they'll do
with it,
Il haven't the least idea, but there is
one thing / do know and that is that
I'm glad we took Cousin Nibbler's advice
and built new home" replied Danny.
What is it?' cried the prettiest girl.
ITS the nest of a Meadow Mouse"

Roasting the Goose.

When it comes to goose roasting we
of the past generation or SO have no
cause for Dragging. for, in spite Of all
our superior culinary knowledge. our
grandmothers knew more of the gentle
art of preparing a goose for the table
than we, and a cook Of 100 years ago
could roast the Christmas bird better
than the average cook of nowadays.
To begin with, the cid method was to
hang it in the feathers for three nights
before dressing it. 1t should be thor
oughly picked, singed and washed both
inside and out, and should then be stuff
ed with the following mixture: About two
cups of hreadcrumbs. two spoonfuls of
cream. two beaten eggs. a few table,
Spoonfuls OF shredded beef suet with the
finely shredded goose liver and favoring
Of lemon peel, nutmeg. salt. pepper and
parsley. Sew up the breast after the
bird has been stuffed, and place in a
roasting pan, rubbing a little butter over
the breast. Add a few tablespoonfl!s OF
water to the pan and baste frequently.
The old-tine way to make apple sauce
for roast goose was to place the sliced,
pared apples in a stone jar with a little
water and stand the stone jar on the
hearth. When done they were mashed
to q pulp and sweetened with brown
sugar Having no hearths nowadays, we
cannot follow this rule exactly. The same
results would be obtained by placing the
stone jar in a large saucepan of water
or in d freless cooker. The brown sugar
gives the sauce n delicious flavor. espe-

Tops matching the costumes in both
shade and fabric are popular, but the
white-topped shoe with black patent
leathes tip has not lost n bit of its
several seasons of popularity, and it is
shown and favored this year in both
the buttoned and laced styles.
One very popular shoe is the black
patent leather toe with upper of gray
glazed kid. buttoning at the side with
white buttons. Tan shoes with white
buckskin uppers are worn with tai
lored suits and frocks. and tan shoes
having beige or gray buckskin uppers
are also well liked. These usually
have quite low. or at least sensible
heels. and may almost be classed with
sport shoes, inasmuch as the term

braces a wide range of garments
This seasons evening slippers are
extremely elaborate. Fabrics embroid-
cred with beads or colored silks are
employed. and satin slippers match
ing the gown with which they are worn,
and ornamented with rhinestones are
popular. The puttee slipper continues
popular, especially with the younger
set. and the bracelet slipper Of satin
is also a favorite.

Special Correspondcnece of The Star.
NEW YORK. December 1S-The edict
that has gone forth from the French
government that the women in the
audience of Paris theaters must not
wear evening gowns does not extend
across the footlights. The French ac-
tresSes, whatever their private grief
or sorrow. are producing new plays in
France and are being dressed for their
roles by the great couturieres.
This is a matter of joy to the Ameri-
can buyers and reporters who are al
ready in Paris to catch Inspiration and
get the news of midseason fashions,
In the seasons before the war there
was never week of dullness in the
sartorial world of Europe. because its
fashionable people demanded such a
variety of new clothes for variety of
recreations. When one reads in future
history of the wave of humanity that
spreads itself over Europe, first to the
south then to the north and then to
the east and west in great hordes, 1t
will sound like chapters on prehistoric
times, when multitudes migrated to
different places to escape the glacial
periods.
We think that the present day is the
only one in which people try to es-
cape the climate, but the trick has
been going on for 100000 years, the
geologiSts tell us.

FASHIONS

The monogramed shoe is one of the
latest conceits of fashion. 1t must, of
course, be made to order, and this ad-
nlits of a wide choice in the design, size
and color of the letters, besides MAX
ing 1t possible to have the monogram
placed as high or as low on the shoe
upper as is desired. Fashion has au-
thorized longer skirts this season than
last. and a few of her followers have
obeyed the mandate, so that not always
is the very top stitching of the shoes
visible, as was almost uniformly the
Ease last year
The monogram is usually only ap-
piled to shoes combining two contrast
ing colors-a dark vamp and light up-
per-and the lettering, placed wherever
desired on the upper, matches the
vamp.
Due to the scarcity of leather cloth
is again largely employed in the de-
velopment of shoes, and it is used in
shoes of fine quality and high price,

OF the husking party and chorus of little
shrieks.
Danny was puzzled. "They act as If

ny. What do you suppose aiis them?
What anybody as big as one of those
great creatures needs to be afraid of is
more than I get through my head.
1t certainly is
What do you suppose Danny would have
said If he could have known that all that
fright was caused by the mere mention
of his name? Perhaps it is just as well
that he didn't and couldn't know. I am
afraid that he would have been SO puff
ed up by the idea that he. who. out on

anybody bigger than. big grasshopper
in all his life, could actually make one
Of these great giants afraid that there
would have been no living with him.

isn't il dear little house," she cried
How do you suppose those dear little
Meadow Mice ever made it? 1t looks
just as warm and coZy as can be It
seems too bad that the poor little things
should have lost their home. Where do
you suppose they are now?'
Probably they are down on the Green
Meadows with new home,'' replied
Farmer Browns Boy. They must have
built this nest in one of the shocks when
they were standing in the cornfield
guess they heard us coming for the corn
and scampered away. II was rather hard
on them TO lose such a nice home. They
hust have thought themselves in a sort
of mouse paradise with all that corn
about them. I am afraid they will have
to work harder for a living than they
had planned"
If Danny could have understood that
he would have been tickied all over Rich
as they felt in the cornfield. they felt
richer still here in Farmer Browns barn
Not only was there al the corn from the
cornteld, but there was also such a yari-
ETY. OF other good things, oats. wheat.
clover seed and other grass seeds, dried
strawberries in the hay and up in dark
corners wasps that were asleep for the
winter and which were really very good
eating. spiders and other things Farmer
Browns boy started to toss the nest over
with the corn stalks from which the ears
had been stripped
May 1 have it?' asked the prettiest
girl
OF course. you rnay!" cried Farmer
Browns Boy.
And SO when the husking was over
late that night Danny and Nanny saw
the last of their little old home as the
prethest girl went out of the barn with
IT. And | suspect that right down in his
heart Danny was glad that II was the
prettiest girl who had it. I know 1 would
have been, Wouldn't you?

Since the war migrations have stop
ped. There was SO much else to with
stand that a factor so negligible as
the climate was forgotten. Paris has
made a few gowns in the midseason
for Monte Carlo and Deauville. for
Evian and San Sebastian. but there
was not enough of them TO assist the
American trade. The sellers of wom-
ems apparel over here have been cry
ing aloud for new things to stimulate
new waves of buying. The enormous
importationS of French clothes brought
over in September have been offered for
sale at constantly reduced prices since
the third week Of November, and the
millions who earn their living through
contributing to women's clothes feel
that they cannot wait for Inspiration
until the last of next March.
Therefore the opening of the French
