PREPARING THE FEAST.

 

C

a nun. Method wui- Lighten on. d...
0‘ (looking tho Thanksgiving Dinner. .

,, . This said that the very sound of these
' words causes our mouths to water, but it
will be very necessary for the housewife to
he systematic in her preparations for this
event if we would have the dinner a per-
fect success. It is not our intention to
state here the proper methods of serving
an elaborate dinner in the most approved

style, but to char suggestions to help the pore

onthmiaatio young housekeeper to enjoy
to the utmost the delightful responsibility
of preparing and presiding over the dinner
which is to be served on this day.

This is the day when the best that is in
us and about us is brought forward and
made the most of. The true Thanksgiv-
ing spirit should pervade the home atmos-
phere, the family, so far as possible, in
all its branches should be brought togeth-
er, the treasured old blue china and an-
tique Moons set forth, and the various
precious heirlooms made to serve their dif—
ferent purposes.

As much aspossible of tliodinncr should ‘

hpropared before Thanksgiving day. The
mince meat should be prepared the week
before it is wanted, as it. becomes more
thoroughly seasoned after standing several
days, and it should be made into pics the
day before they are used and the pies kept
in a cold place until it is time to reheat
them before serving. While making the
mince pies make enough crust for the
pumpkin and all other pics and place this
prepared crust in the cellar, and it will be
ready to roll out quickly the next morn-
ing, when every moment will count.

Have the soot for the pudding chopped
the day before and the hard sauce made
for it and put in a cool place. The cran-
berry sauce and that for the pics can also
be prepared and ready for use beforehand.
The nuts may be cracked the night before,
and last, but by no means least, the tur-
key should be cleaned and stuffed the day
before.

This will leave for Thanksgiving morn-
ing, first, the pics to be baked, but as the
crust is all ready to be rolled out and the
cranberries and stowed pumpkin prepared
this task can boroadiiy disposed of. Then,
when the turkey is in tho oven, the pud-
ding and scalloped oysters may be pre.
pared for the steamer and oven respective-
ly. Then the potatoes may be boiled and
mashed for the potato croqucttos, if they
are desired, and the other vegetables pre-
pared early, so that they may be ready
when it is time to cook them.

A little forethought and method in pro-
paring such a dinner will usually save
hours of work.——Exchange.

 

Chestnut Stating.

. The best chestnut stoning, according to
“eminent French authority, is made for
one turkey according to the following pro-
portions: Chop a good sized Bermuda on.
ion very fine and brown it in a quarter of
I-pound of butter. Add to this the well
cleaned liver of the turkey chopped like
the onion and mix with half a pound of
bread that has been smked in milk or
beef gravy and squeezed almost dry of all
liquid. The remaining ingredients are a
half pound of sausage most, a handful of
minced parsley, the yolks of ii raw eggs.
salt and white pepper to taste. a table-

ful of thyme, l of sage and then the
touts. The nuts, a pound of them,
need first to be meted until their shells
may be taken off, then boiled in just
enough water to cover them, with a little
nit, a tablospmuful of sugar and one of
butter. When tender, these must be mlx‘
ed with the stuffing. Tho chestnut filling
ismoro highly to be recommended than
any more elaborate preparation with trnf«
hes, though these latter can be used with
tests in larding the handsome roast, add-
ing thereby ornament and much flavor.

To fulfill the chief end of its being there

Suggestions For an Entertainment In the
Style of Ye Olden Tyne.

Buillciently in advance to allow your

friends time for preparation send out in-
vitations to ye olden tyme Thanksgiving
days froiiok, and intimate therein that
appropriatccostuming, in strict simplicity,
is expected. The young women should
wear print gowns and aprons and add the
slight touch necessary to turn the prevaii‘
ing tone of hairdressing back one loaf
farther in quaintness. The men must
copy in dress Brother Jonathan’s portraits.
Have merely a violin, the “fiddle" of early
days, for music and dance gay country
dances—the quadrille, Dan Tucker, Vir-
ginia real, and so on, with calling off.
The‘ brighter the people that can be
brought together and the better the acting
of the parts the greater the success of the
entertainment of course. .
' Cover the drawing room carpet with
crash, not only to assist dancing, but also
to give an impression of bare floor primi-
tiveness. Move away or cover up all elab-
orate bric-wbrac and sumptuous furni-
ture. Decorate with corn-talks, cedar
boughin pumpkins and strings of red pep-
. A barrel or two of bright apples
standing about would also add to the gen-
eral effectiveness. In a conspicuous posl~
tion place a table holding a tray of mo-
lasses and a large plain white pitcher of
sweet cider for the guests' occasional rc-
freshment. If there is an open firepm in
the room, popping corn there might prove
a pleasant change from the dancing, the
operation forming a pivot upon which to
hang amusing old time stories and “sing-
in schuie" songs, both in solo and chorus.
All this intersperse with the eating of
popcorn and apples and the drinking of
elder.

Rolllcking dancing should end the oven-
lng whatever the other diversions intro-
duccd may have been. And the old time
“groaning board" must be spread in the
dining room with early day favorite dishes
—roaet turkey and little pig served whole,
baked beans and brown bread, Indian
pudding, hot biscuits and ranks, cucumber
and mango pickles, pot cheese, apple but-
tor, dnmson preserves, fruit and pound
cake and doughnuts, notice with rich
crtuiin and glasses of milk.

Those iiiuts followed in barost outline
will make a novel and pleasing entertain—t
mout. liut ouch extra effort in detail will
tell just» so much in the general attractive-
ness of the result. Every touch of realism
in tho liostcss’ arrangements, every quaint
bit of phrnscclogy or manner in the guests,
will add greatly to the charm of the ovont.

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

Thanksgiving Dinner Menu of Olden Time
and of Recent Date.

The old fashioned Thanksgiving tabla
groanod beneath asupcrabundancouf good
things. In the country edpecially there
was enough laid before the holiday guest
to keep a‘ small family well supplied with
food for a year. To express the plonltudo
of tho larder seemed to be the guling pas-
sion for the time being, and to paruikolib—
orally was tho highest compliment one
could pay to the host and hostess.

In the and of tho cl‘iillli’)’ days an old
fashioned Thanksgiving table would fill
'us with feelings of distrust. We buvo grown
more dainty, or perhaps it is more dyspep-
tic, and We tempt our appetites with the
chops in lace paper frills and sandwiches
tied with pink ribbon. In the days of the
good old 'l‘liiinksglvinga ill?” spread table

at the fire meeting, last Thursday night,

The reason given is that four citizens

to do so, as that district was never legally.

which is the fire district, as notice of the

Hindley, who représeuts $100,000 worth of
property in the fire district, has announc-
ed his intention of refusing to pay any
tax that may be laid, on the above
grounds. It is possible the idea of laying
and collecting a tax may be abandoned,
and a snbscription‘ paper started instead,
as a means of raising money to purchase
fire apparatus.
