It is a lizard, known as the tuatara, and it lived among pterodactyls and other animals whose existence is as- eertainable by fossilized remains, According to R, A.

Here is a sugestion for that week's menu;:-- . 'Monday, Salmi of Turkey; Baked sweet Potatoes; Cranberry Jelly; Green Peppers with Vegetable Stuff- ing; Fruit Cup; Cakes; Coffee. Tuesday, Casserole of Beef with Macaroni; Fried Sweet Potatoes; Green Tomato Pickles; Graham Muf- fing; Cocoanut Bread Pudding; Coffee, Wednesday, Scalloped Turkey; Stuffed Baked Potatoes; Buttered Car- rots; Coffee Gelatine; Wafers; Tea. Thursday, Turkey Soup; Corned Beef Hash; Buttered Beets; Apricot Tapioca Pudding; Coffee. Friday, Codfish Puff with Egg Sauce; Scalloped Tomatoes; Spinach; Individual Chocolate Puddings; Tea. Saturday, Baked Beans; Boston Brown Bread; Pickled Beets; Head Lettuce Salad -- Thousand Island Dressing; Cinnamon Apples with Cream; Coffee. For the Monday dinner make a sauce of the gravy, adding one small onion, chopped. If there is left-over dressing it may be added to the gravy --about a cup and a half--then add three tablespoons of sherry seasoning for every cup of sauce and heat slices of turkey in it. Do not let the turkey cook as this toughens it. It shofild merely be heated through. Serve on thin slices of toast and garnish with toast points. Prepare the green peppers as usual for stuffing by removing the seeds, and par-boiling them ten minutes. Make a filing of the left-over vegetables mixed with bread crumbs, and season- ed rather highly, Stuff the peppers, put buttered crumbs on top and set in the oven to brown the crumbs. The fruit cup may be either the re- mains of the Christmas fruit cocktail or other fruit cut up. Sugar may be added, if desired, to make it a sweeter dessert. Serve with it snmiall cakes. Tuesday's Dinner. The casserole supplies not only the meat, but also the vegetables. A two pound piece of beef should be suffici- ent for six people and a rather tough piece can be made tender and delici- ous. Cover the meat with strips of salt pork and put it In a kettle with two chopped onions, four cups of peas, and set over a low flame. Let it sim- mer three hours, season with salt and cayenne. Have ready cooked half a pound of macaroni; lay it in the bot- tom of a deep dish, then add a layer of the above mixture, then a layer of grated cheese; continue until the dish is full; put in the oven and bake one hour, For the cocoanut bread pudding use two. cups of bread crumbs, four cups of milk, one tablespoon melted butter, two egg yolks, two-thirds cup sugar, one teaspoon baking powder, one and one- half cups cocoanut, two egg whites, and one-half teaspoon of van- illa, Heat the milk, stir in butter and sugar, add crumbs and other ingredi- ents, and last the egg whites beaten stifly.

Season well with salt and pepper. Curry powder may be added if desired, Turn into a buttered casserole, cover the top with crumbs, and bake half an hour in a moderate oven. Again enough potatoes should be cooked for two meals. Select large ones for Wednesday night and when baked cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out the inside and mash. Beat until creamy with butter, salt and hot milk. Refill the shes and sprinkle with.paprika. Return to the oven and bake ten minutes longer.

Cover with cold water, bring slowly to the boiling point and simmer two hours. Strain, remove fat. and season with salt and pepper. One or two outer stalks of celery may be cooked with the carcass to give additional flavor. Serve with salted crackers, 'While the best hash undoubtedly comes from freshly cooked corned beef, canned corned beet will make an acceptable dish, Put the potatoes, corned beef and onions (if you like them), through the meat chopper, and to two cups of chopped potatoes add two cups of the chopped meat and onion to taste.

Codfish Puff. Allow one cup of codfish, cut small, to three cups of diced raw potato. Cover with bofling water and cook below the boiling point until the po- tato is tender--about fifteen minutes. Pour into a strainer, drain thoroughly and return to the kettle. Mash well, add one-half tablespoon of butter, one- eighth teaspoon of pepper and beat. Add enough milk to make of the con- sistency of mashed potatoes. Heap on a buttered glass baking dish, leaving "points" standing up as in meringue, Put in a moderate oven to brown. While it is browning make a medium white sauce, using four tablespoons of flour, and two cups of milk. Season with salt and pepper and add two hard-cooked eggs which have been sliced. Serve with the cod- fish puff. (Note--If the codfish is very salt it is advisable to freshen it slightly before using). For the cinnamon apples make a syrup of two cups of sugar, ope-half cup of water and one cup of red cin- namon candies, Let it boll three min- utes and then add firm apples which have been pared and cored ,and cook until tender, Serve with plain cream or whipped cream as preferred. Hope On! Hope on, though darkest night comes down, And stars refuse to shine, Though heavy clouds of sorrow frown, And all your joys decline, For sgon the darkness flies away | And ushers fn a day. Hope on when ways are long and drear, And feet and fortune fail, When in the gloomy vale of fear E'en faith can scarce prevail, For longest roads bring rest at last, When. doubt and danger's overpast. Hope on when life's short day de- clines, And evening shadows fall, For in the west the promise shines That this life is not all-- That, though the sun may set to-night, A few brief hours bring back the light. --A.B.C,, in Tit-Bits. eee ei. Wet Paint She was very haughty and consid- ered herself one of the "upper ten." As she was walking in the park she saw a laborer apparently approaching the same seat as she herself had cho- sen to sit upon. She decided to hurry and get there before him. "Hey, lady!" he called, just as she was about to be seated. "Don't, don't!" a . She tilted her nose in the air and decided to ignore him completely, She sat down, The laborer accepted defeat. - "All right, lady," he said, "sit theve, but I'l be hanged if I'll paint that seat again today!" 5 _ That's That It is annoying when one goes to the theatre and has one's views obstruct- ed by the hat of a woman in front. Nobody has much sympathy for those who choose to wear their largest hats while seeking amuse- ment, but, on the other hand, there is the crusty old man who finds fault with everything, and pretends he is unable to see the stage even when the hat in front of him is of the small est variety, \ One of these was at the theatre when, after fidgeting for some time, he growled In a loud voice to the girl in front of him: "Do you mind remov- ing your hat? I can't see through wood." The girl turned and looked at him quietly for a moment. Then she said, calmly: "Very well, change seats; I me re ee Qe.

"And what," was Willie's 198th ques- tion, "are houses made of?" "Houses," replied the stout man, "are made of bricks." : "And what are engines made of?" "Engines, my little fellow, are made of iron." 'And what is bread made of?" "Flour." Then, as the anticipated light step and soft rustle of Willie's sister sounded outside, he added, "Now, Wille, I can answer only one more question.' Willie declded that it should be a good ome. After a pause, he asked: "Well, what are we made of?" "Dust and earth, my son!" ~My word," sald Willie, "they must have made a whacking big hele when they took you out!"
