Mince Pie Pastry, made as fol- lows, will delight my readers. Take six ounces'of flour and rub into it three ounces of -mixed butter and • lard, ateaspoonful of baking pow- der, a teaspoonful of caster sugar, the yolk of <me egg, and three des- sertspoonfuls of ioold water. Roll out three trines and use.

The Russians spend most of their Christmas Day in church at Mass. They begin with a service at two o'clock in the morning, which lasts till four o'clock in the after- noon.
