 woodcocks, mousse and truffles and roasted on wire stand so that the juices of the bird may drip down upon a large fried toast spread with forcemeat made with the pheasant's liver, chopped bacon, anchevies and truffles. When beautifully cooked, the pheasant will be served upon this crouton and surrounded with slices of orange.
 For every good American, however Vermont turkey, cooked none theless carefully. There will be one of the popular stuffings such as chestnut, oyster or celery stuffing or perhaps for change we may give the bird a very special one which is well known to French cooks and can easily be made in the home. It is a tasty recipe which combines sausage meat mixed with cooked chestnuts.
 French Chestnut Stuffing
 Shell quart or more of large French chestnutS. Put them in hot water and cook until the skins are softened; drain and remove the skins. Place the chestnuts in boil ing water and cook again until soft. Remove a few at a time and put through a potato ricer, while they re still hot. Add to the mashed chestnuts 8 cup of well-seasoned sausage meat crumbled in fine piec- es., Season the stuffing with a tea spoon of salt, two tablespoons of butter and moisten lightly with a little turkey stock.

 But that was because his wife knew how to MAKE rice pudding. Not the congealed, cement like sort you sometimes find in res- taNants, but creamy, caramely, cr,sty pudding that simply melted in the mouth.
 She used two full quarts of milk, we remember, with cream left on, a half cup of washed rice, and sugar to taste. This she put in . big pudding bowl and set it in . slow-to-medium oven to bake until a light brown crust was formed. Then she turned the crllsts under and let the milk gather a new one. Four times she turned the crusts under, mix ing the rice well with the milk; the fifth time she let the crust remain. By then the pudding was a delicious cross between sweet cream and caramel and the rice was floating gently in the custard.
 To make pudding in this way requires two and a half or three hours of baking time, and fre- quent peeps into the oven to see that the crust is turned under be- fore it scorches, or the pudding runs over the side of the dish, But oh, the goodness of the pud- ding well deserves the attention it demands.
 Young, old, or medium man never tastes this delicious dessert without registering instant rapture. Even those who find the usual rice pudding oistasteful are wild over it when made this way.

mand the attention of the cook at the time when she is filling her role as hostess.
 The deIectable beef roast for com pany meals will be either stand ing or rolled rib roast in all prob- ability, as these are the choice beef cuts for cooking by this method. They should have good fat cover ing and show flecks of fat through out the lean, known as marbling. The roast may be of any size desired although one should not choose one too small, because large roast not only cooks to better advantage, but also makes a better appearance at the dining table. Usually a two or three rib standing roast is chosen, and if any is left after the meal, it can be used for sandwiches or in combination with other foods in a casserole.

important points involved in the dressing and cooking of a turkey. We spare ourselves, of course, the task of drawing and cleaning the bird in these days, when butchers take care of those details for US. But there is still the job of trussing the fowl after it is washed, singed, pluckled of all pin feathers, stuffed and ready for the oven.
 To truss a turkey press the wings close against the body and fold the pinions under, crossing the back and holding down the skin of the neck which has been drawn smoothly down and under after Stuffing the cavity and sewing up the rent. Press the legs close to the body and sip them under the skin as much as possible. Thread the trusting nee dle with white twine, which should be doubled.
 Push the needle through the wing by the middle joint, run through the skin of the neck and back and come out at the middle joint of the other wing. Go back through the bed of the leg at the second joint, through the body and out at the same point on the other side. Draw the cord tight and tie it at the wing joint. Now thread the needle again and run it through the fowl at the thigh bone and back at the ends of the drumsticks. Draw these bones close together and tie the ends, and the ends of the cord on the same side as before When the bird is roasted, cut the cords on the opposite side and pull them out by these knots. The bird that is properly truss ed comes out shapely and well Drowned with no burned spots as when wing-tips and leg bones are allowed to stand up in the air.

Sunday Breakfast
 Morning

For 8 long time, early Sunday morning weddings have been irl popular vogue, and perhaps it is an outsrowth of this that Sunday morning has become a preferred time for entertaining ones most in- innate friends at breakfast. But even If Sunday morning is reserved for 8 leiSurely breakfast with the family, we like to have something special for it, so Inez s. Wilson, home economist, suggests meats which are good to serve on this occasion.
 Creamed Sweetbreads
 Cook pair sweetbreads for twen- ty minutes in boiling water to which a little vinegar is added. Plunge them into cold water to make them firm. Melt 2 tablespoons butter, combine with 9 tablespoons flour, gradually add cup milk, and cook until tkickened, stirring to prevent Jumping. Dice the sweet breads into half inch cubes and add to cream sauce. Add button mush- rooms, too, if desired. Heat this and serve on baking powder bis- cults, toast points or Chinese noodle nests.
 Egg and Salami Omelet
 Beat egg yolks and season. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into yolks. Place bacon drippings in pan and melt, so that sides and bottom are covered. Pour in the beaten eggs. Cook slowly until firm. Cover top with several slices of salami. Roll and serve immedi- ately.
 Bacon CriSps
 Bacon is an old standby for breakfast and a very good one, too. Put g spoonful of bread dressing on 6 bacon slice, roll and broil for a breakfast tempter.
