Vespasia's second child, Sabinus, named
for his father, flourished and rose to be
perfect.
The third branch grew like q tree.
This led Sabinus, the elder, to predict
that his third child, also a boy, would
become Emperor of Rome.
Little Vespasian's gran d m h e r

Flavians were of humble descent. They
boosted no proud ancestry.

In his young manhood, while he was

public lands, buildings, etc., Caius
Caesar became angry through his fail

VeSpasian's gown with dirt. This was
construed by some persons as q sign
that the government, being trampled
under foot and deserted in some civil
commotion, would fall under his pro-
lection, and, as it were, into his lap.
The words are those Of SuetoniuS.
On another occasion, while he was
dining, a strange dog, a street-wan-
derer, brought the right hand of a
man and laid it under the table. The
right hand being the symbol of SOW
ereign power, those who witnessed the
incident predicted great things for
Vespasian.
Other wonderful things happened.
While Vespasian was at supper, a
plow-ox threw the yolk of his neck
and broke into the room. All the at
tendants, frightened. ran away, but
Vespasian did not stir from his couch
and suddenly the beast fell down at his
feet and hung down its head.

The difference between thoughtful

that the thoughtleSs draw no distinc-

they do not bother about solving any of
them.

ton. One Is that q family may be
30 small that the Thanksgiving bird
however little 1t may weigh, Is too big
Turkeys are rather large for q family
of two or three. The second reason is
the cost. Many homemakers find they
should buy some meat that Is not listed
among the delicacies. Then there is a
third reason, seldom found, that is
counted as exceptional, namely an ac-
tual dislike for the bird
The following meats are used as SUBJ
etitutes: Chicken and duck Especially
recommended for small families, the
less tender but very palatable poultry,
called fowl, owing to the age, and veal
All these substitutes are either birds
or white meat somewhat approximating
the meat of fowl and turkey. The
chicken, duck or fowl can be stuffed
with the same dressing that would be
ter in this particular. The flavor Of
the meat will differ, although the tex
ture win be similar.
The most inexpensive cut Of veal
that can be used satisfactorily Is the
knuckle To make 1t as much as pos
sible like turkey, use the turkey dress
ing of bread crumbs, seasoned with
sat pepper er o chopped e,o celery fnely
snop either areen or s red sss

Have the knuckle bone removed and
stuff the cavity to capacity, sewing In
dressing securely.
Put the veal on a rack, in a kettle
with q tightly fitting cover. Pour in
enough water to cover the rack. Steam
the veal until nearly tender, and put
It in the oven in a baking pan. Basic
with the water from the kettle, adding
little melted butter to the liquid, and
brown the meat. Make a rich brown
gravy. In some places chicken giblets
can be bought without the chicken. A
few Of these boiled in a little water
until tender and then chopped, not too
fine, can be added to the gravy to in
crease the semblance of the flavor to
that of a bird. Put the gravy in q
boat and serve separately.
