Bread Making.

In this new country, where as
We, many OF ne raise little or no
wheat; aud are obliged to Luy our
-four it is not always casyto make
good bread. It is acknowledg ed
by all that hop yeast is much
surcr than salt yeast. The former
will "bringup" -four If the yeast is
good for any thing, almost Us soon
as will the failure OF the wheat
crop. The salt yeast can only be
made ont Of the best Of fonr, 10
my experience. | propose to
give my recipe to the friends OF
the Stars Those Of you who have
notrouble in making bread will not
be interested in it; butif perchance
there .bc an unfortunate house
keeper who has weekly to bury
bread because the hens get choked
on it; it makes the swine sick, &C.,
l venture 10 say that she will try
my recipe and shortly return
thanka. Procure Joyes & STRAIT
tons yeast cakoa ifpossible, other.
wise, Twin brothers," also pack
age Of condensed hops. They
can be procured at any store. Ii
your family is small, and four
cvmmon sized loaves are all you
nse in one week, then make one
quart Of soft yeast; and it will last
you at least two weeks. To make
It: steep, in little more than one
quart OF water one fifth Of the
package Of hops; then strain H.,
and heat again; thickcn it with
-four until it is rs stiff batter; LOT
it cool. Dissolve two yeast cakes
in half a teacup Of warm water
and while the thickened hops
water is yet warm, stir tn the dis
solved cakes. Let this stand a few
hours in a warm room, over night
perhaps, and it will raise or foam.
Throw in tablespoonful Of salt,
and when the yeast has done
foaming pour it into j.r or can
and keep tin a cool place. When
ever you use of it, throw into tho
jar q little salt, as this keeps it
sweet. When you make sponge,
use only ! teacup of tho yeast to
two quarts Of voting; with too
much yeast it will be more likely
to sour. Make your sponge at
night and it will BE- ready to knead
INTO loaves in tho morning. Keep
the sponge in warm room, but
not 100 near the fire, as too much
hca, is as bad as too much yeast.
Hop yeast must be kept rs warm
as salt yeast is necessarily kept
The bread needs TO be kneadcd
but once. 1t needs more -four
worked in than salt rising would
allow. Make it hard; work 10 flour
for about haitian hour and you will
have nice white bread. Set yonr
loavcs near the fire to raise. TO
make yeast-cake: Use two teacup-
fuls of bread sponge, one teacup Of
sugar, one half teacup of butter
one cgg("r two),onc halfteaspoon
'rul Of soda, and spice to tate. Let
it raise before baking. Mix tn W.
oughly with tho hand. If your
yeast should sour, add more than
half a tea spoonful Of soda to yonr
sponge, and your bread will be
sweet. 1 always put half a tea
spoonful oil soda IN nv sponge, il
the yeast is not sour.

A Great Time in Danbury.

THE firemen had a parade on Saturday.
1t was fine affair, but the absence of Mr..
O'Clarence was deeply felt not only by
the department but by the public. His
long and faithful services at the business
meetings and festivals, and his splendid
bearing on parade, have given Mr. O'Clar-
ence an enviable position in the hearts of
his countrymen. We are sorry he was
not present, Saturday. But an unlocked
for and very painful accident deprived
him and us Of very great pleasure.
/. The night which preceded the last an
niversary of our national independence,
he took home twenty-five dollars worth
of fireworks for splurge on the next
night. He calculated he had glory enough
in that package to fill with gratitude and
admiration every taxpayer on North
street, and his wife, after carefully cX-
aiming the lot, was equally confident
that the neighbors would see something
that would make their eyes bung out,
as she pensiveIy expressed it.
| The next morning O'Clarcncc got out
| the bundle to look il over again and feed
on the anticipation. There were these
cannon erackcrs-several packs-and
| Roman candles, and bluetire and pin
wheels and rockets and the likc-a very
| crcdit,blc assortment for any family. Mr.
| Wickford's boy from the next house was
| in. and sat on the floor holding piece o
! lighted punk in his hand, and had boil
his eyes and mouth wide open cnjoyins
| the sight. O'Clarcnce was sitting on hi
| launches, holding a pinwhccl in his hand
and explaining to Mrs. O'Clarence how
cheaply they could be made in China
and how superior in ingenuity and in
dustry were the Chinese to all other races

SIR said tall, thin man, clad in
worm very shining garb, suddenly APP
pearing in The room, Il have ventured to
call and lay before you one OF the most
astonishing inventions of modern times"
They all begin in some such impressive
way as that. A gas-burner, sir" | was
busy arranging some papers IN corner,
and having both hands full, with pen
held crossways in my mouth, l was for
the moment quite at his mercy Per
haps, sir, you are aware that in the. case
of every kind of burner but this | now
show you, gas gives off Il most noxious
etiluvium, having u peculiarly ruinous
effect upon the cycsight." BY this time
had emptied my hands and mouth, and
was advancing upon him. Fixing his
eyes upon mine, he started back in dis
lressful horror. Heaven help us, Sir"
he exclaimed, chow you have suffered
already, Your sight, sir, would not last
six months longer. This must ma be-"
Before | could say word or lift a fin
ger to stop him he rapidly glided past me
TO the table on which the lamp stood.
With nimbleness which rooted me to the
spot in apprehension, he whipped off the
shade, then the old burner. In a moment
the lamp was ruin. 1T is Il mercy of
Providence, sir, that l have happened to
CALI
stop L called. Replace everything
as it was, instantly"
"The number of cases of premature
blindness" he calmly proceeded, that l
have had the qualification of preventing
makes my labor most pleasant one"
Think ing he might be deaf, / bawlcd,
:" l don't want your burner; | won't have
it; take it off, For he was lightly twirl-
ing the new one in its place.
''Therc, sir, You will feel thankful to me
as long as you live. the only thing that
troubles me in the matter is, l know l am
running the spectacle makers"
"Do you hear" | asked. Il shall not
pay you for it,
He struck a very effective attitude
Payment of what consequence is that?

tentative is the ruin of your valuable eye

that is not my affair, though | am sorry tc
