Sng an increase of $22. 836,865 over

be cooked in a separate dish. basted
with the drippings from the pan and
served with the dinner. The amount
suggested above was sufficient to
stuff a turkey weighing a little over
six pounds before being drawn.
The turkey may be started in an
oven temperature $50 degrees f. IL "a
double roasting pan is used. If it is
young and tender 1t will be done in
one and half hours. during the latter
part of which the temperature may be
slightly reduced. A large, heavy, or
old bird will require considerably
longer baking. Keep the bottom of the
roasting pan well covered with water
during the roasting so hat the tur-
key will not dry out. The use of a
blanket" of biscuit dough spread
over the entire turkey will insure u
juicy, tender bird. With a blanket
the top of the rooster is omitted. To
make dough enough for a small
6-pound turkey 2 cups of flour were
used, with l teaspoon of salt, 4 tea
spoons of baking powder and enough
water to moisten for rolling out thin.
Shortening was not used because dur
ing the basting the dough absorbed
sufficinet fat. This blanket will be
crisp and quite hard when the turkey
is done and the skin underneath will
be well Drowned. The blanket is good
to eat with gravy.

A THANKSGIVING TURKEY
HAS NO REAL SUBSTITUTE
Plenty of Turkey and No Frlls Best Please the
Holiday Guest.

A Thanksgiving dinner should have
an air of festivity. but at the same
time it should not be too heavy or in
yolve too much work in its prepa-
ration. IF a turkey is to be the prin'
cipal feature. the family will be i'm
patient to see the big platter brought
in; 1t is likely therefore. that courses
such as fruit or oyster cocktails,
or soup, preceding the hearty part OF
the dinner, will not be fully appre-
ciated. In some households it may
seem advisable to include a light
soup, like tomato or consomme, TO
make the turkey go farther" but the
family is perhaps justified in feeling
that as Thanksgiving comes but once
a year the rules of economy may well
be laid aside. A good stuffing adds to
the attr~activeness of the feast without
causing extra cooking or dishes to
wash.
A SIMPLE THANKSGIVING MENU
Roast stuffed turkey with giblet gravy
Candied sweet potatoes
Dreamed Whole Cauliflower
Cranberry ice
Beet or green tomato pickles
Rolls
Individual pumpkin pies
Coffee.
The above menu can be prepared
easily from materials obtainable In
most parts of the country at Thanks
giving season. Mashed white potatoes
or rice could be used instead of the
sweet potatoes, and some other cream
ed green vegetable may be substitute
ed II caullflower is not to be had. Gran
the same time add to the holiday as
pect OF the dinner. Ordinary muffin
tins may be used to make individual
shells for the pumpkin pies, which
are attractive when "dessed up" with
whipped cream or a spoonful of
meringue.
Stuffing the Turkey
9 cups finely broken stale bread.
2 teaspoons salt.
2-3 teaspoon pepper
IA teaspoon thyme.
1-2 teaspoon ground sage.
3 teaspoons baking powder.
Ia pound butter.
1-2 onion, minced

BY FORBES W. FAIRBAIRN

LONDON, Nov. 11.-Mrs. Smith
Wilkinson, hailed in Paris and on
the Riviera as the worlds greatest
spender, transformed herself into
the worlds greatest splendor Thurs
day night for the famous Victory ball
at Albert Hall.
Mrs. Wilkinson blazed her way
into the Prince Of Wales box, a lit
eral walking diamond mine. At
tired as the Queen of Sheba," she
absolutely stopped the proceedings
at London's most famous armistice
celebration.
Members of the royal family, peers
and peeresses and Europe's most ia
nous f%ashionables stood aghast at
the marvellous display of wealth on
the gown of this stout Nottingham
matron.
Insured for $4,000, O00.
The gown was manufactured by
Reville, the famous dressmaker, and
was insured for $4,000, 900. 1t con-
tains more than $4,000 diamonds and
pearls. She wore a cuirass of fine
diamonds over a skirt of silver lace
embroidered in pearls.
Her shoes were of silver cloth with
high Louis XIV heels covered with
tiny yellow diamonds.
The most startling feature of the
whole bizarre costume was the head
dress, which was SO inches high. 1t
was a loose cap laced with diamonds,
with three ropes of wonderful pearls
of graduated length draped from the
ends of the cap at the ears and fall
ing below the chin. From the top
of the diamond cap stood three white
peacock feathers studded with dia-
mOnds. These were guarded on
either side by wonderful birds of
paradise.
Most Wonderful Dress.
Mrs. Wilkinson also wore long
diamond earrings and a magnificent
chain of diamonds around her neck
and dropping to the waist. Wonder
full rings, each worth a kings ran
som, with diamonds, pearls, emerald
bracelets and armlets, completed the
astounding Oriental costume, which
1t is safe to assert that the queen
of Sheba never saw the like of in
her palmiest days.
ut is the worlds most wonderful
dress" declared Reville. "The like
of it was never seen before. In her
presence the most magnificently
gowned women were outshone like
a queens robe in a poor house"
Mrs. Wilkinson is staying at the
kitz for the season and wears a diff
ferent gown every evening. She is
planning to go to America soon, with
her gold bathtub and other convent
ences as announced last summer.
