Recipe for Good Bread.

Choice white winter wheat is best,
but good spring wheat will do. Grind
80 as to have the bran cut fine. Use no
bolt or sieve. Mix the meal with pure
soft water, so thick that it will lift
heavily with a spoon. Use cast-iron
bread pans, such s are readily to be
had at large hardware stores they are
shallow, oval cups, about a dozen cast
in one plate. Heat the pan well, then
put in the batter, and bake in a quick
oven, say, in twenty minutes. The
cakes, sometimes called "gems', will
be light, taste good, and be healthy,
and may be eaten warm with perfect
IMMUNITY. The heat Of the oven and
pan suddenly coagulates the gluten OF
the outside, which retains the steam
formed within separates the particles
into cells and the mass remains po-
rous and digestible. When a little old
the bread can be renewed by steaming
or it may be thoroughly dried, and then
ground to rusk, to be eaten with milk,
or made into buildings. For common
family use, this form of bread is 'su'
perior.

GunpoWder in the arts of Peace.

The application Of gunpowder to the
process Of pile driving has come into
considerable use in England, its work
ings have demonstrated that consider
able saving is effected both in time and
cost, IA compared with the ordinary
method Of pile driving.
This apparatus is described as an or
binary pile-drivin engine, having a
ram from the upper and under side of
which Il plunger projects. The ram is
fitted with mn arrangement by which it
may be retained ut any desired height
above the pile head. A cast iron cap,
having II hole in its centre, into which
the lower plunger of the ram will fit,
is placed on the top of tho pile to be
driven, and in the hole is inserted n
small charge Of powder. On the ram
being released, the lower plunger enters
the hole in the cap, COMPRISING the all
within, generates heat, which ignites
the gunpowder.
The force of the explosion is utilized
partly in driving the pile downward and
partly in throwing tho ram upward, the
latter being detained Mt the required
height, ready for the next blow. Should
the ran be thrown too high, the upper
plunger enters M air cylinder, com.
pressing the air and cushioning the
blow. A seIf-acting feeding arrange
ment supplies ammunition automatical
ly after every shot.

The OLD TESTAMENT FOR CHILDREN.
The literal Scripture addresses the
sense of the sensuous mind, the COM
mon historical understanding its sup
port is concealed its Significance is
suggested it conveys truth, but does
not tell it in plain speech. Doctor
Wilkinson of London, one of the most
enthusiastic and brilliant expositors of
Swedenborg, says, in the preface to his
biography of him, that children ought
to be everlastingly grateful to the Swe-
dish seer for presenting the Old Testa-
ment to them as n book Of fairy tales (;
for that, he says, is precisely what the
literal Bible is Il book for children. II
you wish to get at the soul Of it, the
book for men, that is another thing.
Only spiritual people can apprehend
that. Spiritual things must be spiritu-
ally discerned /; the letter Of it which
peruse with the outward eye is SYM
bolic, of little moment. Scriptures
that have no spiritual sense have no
sense worth making out.

A Despicable Mule.

Tho negro and mule are inseparable
companions in the southern cotton feds,
and, like the Hiawathen string and bow,
useless each without the other. The
lazy Indifference and careless cruelty of
the one, nnd the wonderful power of
endurance of severe labor, bad treat
mcnt, and neglect of the other, com
pleto tho compatibility of the two races
necessary for the production of four
millions of bales. A characteristic
anecdote may be relished by those who
have had experience Of the two. The
spectators had taken refuge from the
suns perpendicular rays under the
shade Of n spreading beech, and lay en-
Toying the titful breezes and the sombre
frothiness of the country newspaper.
Along the dusty road came Jogging n
negro, mounted on n mule, both appa-
rentlyfast asleep. Asthe somnolent pair
approached the spot, some wicked sprite
Of the place gave the paper n flirt, which
was no sooner seen and heard than the
mule, rs mules only know how, instantly
"swapped ends" and leaving the negro
sprawling in the dirt, took his departure,
under full sail. The negro, half raising
himself, and wiping the dust from his
eyes and mouth, watched the retiring
mule for some time in silence, but ut
length, unconscious of an auditor, gave
expression to this philosophic s~oliloquy:
Oats what makes me 'spise a mule !"

CALIFoRNIA's BIGGEST NUGGET. How
much we owe to California Her pre-
cious metals have enriched thousands
of our fellow-citizens, and have proved
the main stay of America in times of

ers. She is the land Of promise to the
fortune seeker. But the Golden State
has lately sent us n new treasure. Her
last nugget is DIR. Walkers California
| Vinegar Bitters. The health-giving
principles contained in this curative are
a more precious boon than gold. In all
affections of the liver and stomach, re-
mittent and intermittent ~fevers, rheu-

be relied upon. As a blood depurent
and invigorant it is u%nequaled, purify

no other remedy that can accomplish
this. It's entire freedom from alcoholic
spirit, which retards and neutralizes the
effect of any medicine, and which forms
the basis of many Of the pseudo bitters
and %tonics, doubly enhances its value tc
the sick. The papers of the United

honor to DR.. Walker. We. too, add
