Absorb all you can hold OF the
mystery and tendernesseffer-
verse; iollity and goodwill. So
will you make, for yourself and
for your household, the sweetest,
richest Christmas your family has
ever known. It isn't money, but
sentiment, which makes the day
memorable. And while you are
building over with goodwill, dom
forget the poor, the lonely, the
aged, and the i'll.

Impromptu Hospitality

It is pleasant, when friends
drop in, of an afternoon or eve
ming, to detain them for an hour of
refreshment and hospitality. The
housewife who has a party shelf
may be always ready.
Fortunately this is a day of
canned, boxed and bottled goods
and we may stow these away
with no danger of their spelling.
If the cartons Of waters, biscuits
or tea cakes become a trifle stale,
a relocating in the oven will re-
store their crispness and bring
out their best flavors.
The tea-wagon, the proper
lunchcloths or doilies and small
lunch napkins, and dainty dishes
form the base Of preparation. The
drink depends upon the weather.
In hot seasons they will be lem
onade or other fruit drinks. In
cold weather they will be hot tea,
coffee or chocolate.
Loaf sugar, for the coffee or
tea, marshmallows for the choco-
late, and candied rose petals or
violet or mint leaves, which look
lovely floating on the surface, are
on hand for the drinks. Fruit
tablets, dissolved in the tea, give it
different flavor.
Honey, fruit pastes, nut buffers,
cheeses in pars, pans and spices
and mayonnaise make spreads
which transform almost any style
of crackers, waters, cookies or bis
cults into delightful sandwiches or
tea cakes.
Icing to dress up plain crackers
may quickly be made by stirring
canned milk into powdered sugar;
or marshmallow on top Of a
cookie may be melted and brown
ed in the oven; or sweet chocolate,
melted and poured over waters pro-
duce the same result.
Chopped nuts, added to honey,
jam or cheese-spread, increase the
mystery. Chopped olives, pickles OF
nuts are acceptable in most sand
witch filings. Powdered cloves or
allspice may be added to fruit
pastes.
For cold drinks, we may use bot
| tied fruit juices from the store OF
the same saved from canning, add
ed to prepared sugar syrup which
we keep for that purpose in our
ice boxes, and lemon juice. If we
are to serve iced tea, pinch of
salt added to the pot brings out
| the flavor. The deliciousness OF
| tea is increased by the addition OF
/ spring of mint or a piece of lem
ION or orange rind.

Christmas Sweets

Too much tempting candy about
at Christmas time keeps one nib
bling at all hours. A little care
on the part of the mother may
change a candy-stick Christmas
into happy holiday. Try to see
that the candy is put out of
sight-and reach between meals,
and let the time of indulgence be
after meals.
Plenty of substitutes for candy
is another trick which the wise
mother will have up her sleeve
Fruit gelatines in different color
ed layers; hard cookies with col
ored sugar frosting; nut-filled
dates and figs; pastes of chopped
dried fruits, especially of figs,
rolled in powdered sugar and
chopped nuts-these will fill the
holiday bill and not be so trying
on the digestion and the DISPOSE
ton. Have plenty of shining red
apples, golden oranges and attrac-
tive grapes about throughout the
festive season.
