•.Banane, Salad.—Peel and out the
bananas in hall lengthwise. Lay
each half on a lettuce leaf, cover,
with mayonnaise dressing, and,scat-
ter ft few chopped nuts over.
• A Hint on Choosing a Goose.---
When a go•ese its old the bills and
feet are red, yellow when freshe
killed. The feet of a goose get stiff`'
when kept too long. Geese are
smiled "green" when they are un-
der four months old.
Make Pink ,Sugar, which is, so
pretty as a, garnish, by beating a
few drops of cochineal into granu-
lated sugar, '.Chen dry the sugar in
a Slow oven. Store in a. tin.
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.
Orangeade is made thus : Make a
syrup of one pint of water and
twelve ounces of loaf sugar; steep
the thin rind of three oranges in it;
;squeeze the juice of twelve oranges
through a hair sieve into a bowl;
add the syrup and three pints of
cold water, mix, and •cool in ice for
an hour. Place in glass jags on the
refreshment table at a party.
Christmas Date Pudding.—Take
one cupful and a half of stoned and
washed dates, and cut them into
pieces., with acupful of walnuts,
also chopped. Make a nice light
suet pudding mixture, add half a
tea•spoon£ul of carbonate of soda
and three ounces of brown sugar.
Add the dates and nuts. Place all
into a greased mould, and boil at a
gallop for four hours. Sift caster
sugar over to serve.
Icing the Christmas Cake.—Be-
fore making the icing see that the
top surface of the cake is quite flat.
With a sharp knife trim it and
grate off any blackened pasts. It
is difficult to give the •exact propor-
tion of icing, as some people like
a thick layer and others a, thin. As
you spread the icing over the cake,
dip the knife constantly into a jug
filled with hot water, which makes
either .almond paste or sugar icing

Gingerbread Recipe for Juvenile •
Cooks.—Put one pound of flour in
a, basin, adding as teaspoonful of
ground ginger and half ateaspoon-
ful of mixed spice, warm three-
quarters of a pound of treacle and
three ounces of brown sugar. Work
four ounces of Food beef dripping
into the flour. Dissolve a teaspoon-
ful of carbonate of soda with a little
warm mills, add it to the flour and
treacle. Beat the whole well with
a wooden :.boon. Plage in a
greased tin, and bake in a moderate
oven.
Christmas in Russia.
• The trayeller iu this land of
. snowy steppes will be most struck
at Christmas -time by the little
amount of stir the feast day makes
, among the peasants—for the reas-
1 on, chiefly, that Easter is really
the time of most rejoicing in Rua-
; sia, and nut Christmas at all. How-
: ever, on the Geh of our January, a
little unusual bustle will be des-
cried in the market -places in most,
Russian villages, where small and
large Christmas -trees are sold, the
former costing only four cents, and
the latter—some that scrape the
ceiling, too—being bought for a
matter of a. few 'cents. Then are
taken home ; bust there is very little
excitement manifested over them,
and until quite recently, when Rus-
sia has been influenced by the Ger-
man "Weihnachtsmann" (Santa
(lane), the Russian children did not
dream of hanging up their stock-
ings, nor did they receive the 'nu-
nereus presents 'that .English child-
ren expect at this season of the
. year. 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. After this they return home
to regale. themselves with perk,
ham, and sausages, arriving back
at church, where, after another
Mass, a solemn thanksgiving is giv-
en for the deliverance .of Russia
from the French in 1812.

thing else, that which is done too

When you shop kabundantly and
hastily don't negle'et keeping tab of

difficulty or delay in returning the

The Perfect Present.
At Christmas the 'present should
be complete. There's a happiness
in giving, and a joy in receiving and
using. If one ha•s to wait until the
shops re -open after the holidays be-
fore they can use a present, the joy
is halved, especially with children.
The following examples—it is ion
pi seible to give mere—will guide
you. A boy loves a box of tools.
He wants to begin using them at
once. No wood.'no nails, no iserew••s'!
Send with the tools a pound of mix-
ed French nails, two dozen screws;
and a dozen short pieces of wood,
Then he's happy. With that new
acetylene lamp put in a half -pound
tin of carbide. See? With the au-
tosnatie lighter, send ---in a tin,
carefully closed—a little methy-
lated spirit or petrol. With a doll.,
undressed, send a selection of those
bits of silk, flannel, etc., which de-
light a child who makes her own
dolly's clothes. With skates, don't
forget the straps: With n. goose,
send the materials for stuffing!
Before you begin to paolc your.
presents, think over eaoh carefully,'
and make them complete.
