 Try to have absolutely no left overs to work up. During the interm ediate week servo an old-fashioned boiled dlnner You might even attempt a dinner of herbs,' anything to whet the appetite and bring contrast to the rich and 'dressy" affairs that tradi- tion demands and that come so close ly together.
 If you have a bird of some sort to grace the first feast order an espec- tally fine roast for the second. If the size of your family will warrant it get whole roast pig. There's noth~ ing more luscious than a six-weeks- old piggy stuffed and roasted. Let him make his appearance with glowing red apple in his mouth. We stuff our porkling the day before and send him to a bake shop to be roasted New Years morning.
 After all it's the feeling ill our hearts rather than the extrava gant and dainty dishes on the table that makes the holidays a success. Christmas Dinner Menu.

II every person in the United States
saved nickel in one day it would
mean that at night the people would
be just five million dollars richer. And
then suppose the people kept this up
for one month? 1t would mean that
at the end of thirty days they would
have saved one hundred and fifty mil

Why not keep it up for the rest Of
1919? What would be the result? One
billion five hundred million dollars.
Sounds like lot of work for onerl little
nickel to do, doesn't it, yet there are
scores Of industries in the United
States which are paving big dividends
on the little nickels gathered day by

This immense sum If invested in
War Savings Stamps would earn for
