from a brother or a friend Make a cushion exactly to fit the hollow which held the pipe or a little larger as it must be well pushed Into the case the hollow being covered beforehand with glue The cushion should be stuffed with sawdust or anything soft and cov ered with some pretty velveteen or silk the color being carefully chosen to match or contrast with the case A pale brown or fawn color looks well as a rule Of course the pipe case will be double being open and one side can if desired be left as it is or util ized as a cushion for needles A rib bon bow of color to match must be added at the top to hang it up by Hovr to Prepare Turkey Salad For the supper table Christmas night chicken or turkey salad in a cranberry mold is delicious Make the cranberry jelly and mold in a ring Turn
