Lay the first slice of bread on a plate over two or three lettuce leaves, put the oysters on the bread, a grating of horseradish on each oyster; cover with the graham or rye bread; on this lay the chicken or turkey cut in thin slices, season with salt and pepper, put on the bacon, and cover with the other slice of bread.

On top of the sandwich lay a slice of lemon cut square, and about this dispose the pickles and radishes, to form a star.

Serve the tomato on a lettuce leaf at the side.

Cut out the hard centre from the tomato and fill the opening with sauce tartare.

In making this sauce, add to mayonnaise or boiled dressing, onion, olives, sweet pickles and celery, chopped fine and squeezed dry in a cloth.
