A New York merchant is
quoted as saying " Wanna
makers on the right track
telling the truth about
goods. We've all got to
come to it yet"
Reminds us OF the ostrich
hiding his head in the sand
and feeling secure as If hid
all over.
Do merchants imagine
that nobody catches then

That was an innocent
speech though! We'v,

STALE BREAD.
Various Ways in Which 1t May BE Util'
lied to Good Advantage.

Various Ways in Which 1t May lie Util'
lied to Good Advantage.
A great deal of bread is thrown away
by those who can i'll afford it, from lacl
of knowledge how to utilize it. On tie
farm, in most instances, of course, stale
bread is not wholly lost, for if wet lit
tie it makes good food for the poultry,
or may be given to the pigs, but this is
not the best way to make use of it even
by those who have poultry and pigs.
There. are many ways to utilize stale
bread. 1t makes delicious griddle-cakes
when soaked in cod water. Three small
slices with water enough to cover them
should be sufficient when the milk and
flour are added, to make two quarts Of
batter. Some prefer to put in one egg,
while others like them fully as well
without. When the bread is soaked
soft, make it fine with spoon, add the
milk and sufficient flour to stillen
enough 80 that the cakes can be easily
turned If sour milk is used add to the
batter one even teaspOonful OF soda. If
YOU do not use sour milk use twice as
much cream of tartar as soda. French
toast, always favorite dish with chill
dren, can be made of thin slices cut
from a stale loaf and moistened in milk
and eggs-twO eggs to pint of milk
and then fried on a griddle with mix
ture of butter and lard or butter and
beef drippings, and may be eaten
with sugar or syrup, like griddle-
cakes. Pieces of bread which are not
too hard can be made into a resem-
blance of turkey dressing Cut the bread
into dice, and if you have quantity of
gravy from which fat can be taken, left
! from any kind of roaSt-though piece
| of butter will do as well-thOrOughly
grease the bottom of a spider, put in
the bread, with some little chunks OF
butter and plenty of seasoning; then
pour enough boiling water on &c
moisten it, cover tightly, and, in mo-
ment, it will steam through and you can
stir it, and either brown a little or have
it moist like dressing. 1t should bt
eaten with gravy over it, and is a gooC
substitute for potatoes, The little dry
hard pieces and crusts which always ac
emulate can be put in a pie-tin in al
oven that is just hot enough to dry anC
make them light brown, then rol
them fine and put away to use in max
ing croquettes, frying fish, etc. Ever
these slightly Drowned crumbs max
excellent griddle-cakes with the addition
of one egg and handful of flour an,
m TX to a batter. Stale bread may b
utilized in making a custard puddinI
also The fact is, that where econom
is the rule bread will not be throw
away.--ChicGg0 News.

banks to light the men at their work,
and the passengers found it very pleas
ant to ramble about in the edge of the
canebrake by the dim light of the fires
OF course, they soon began to talk
about what they would do if they should
see bear, and every one was going to
do something very brave and dar.
ing One big, burly fellow said
if he should come across bear,
he would catch it by the ears
and kick its bowels out. Among the
hands on the boat was an Italian, who
acted as porter, eking out his meager
wages by means of certain entertaining
tricks for the performance, of which he
received small donceurs from the pas
sengers. He had been an attache of
various side shows, and was a tolerable
juggier in small way, and pretty
good ventriloquist in smaller way.
That is, he could initiate the snarling
and swapping of dog ut a mans heels,
or the caterwauling of cat in some
ones hat, and various small tricks of
that kind. Hearing the boasts of the
passengers as to what they would do il
they saw bear. he concluded to have
little sport at their expense, even at
the risk of getting a chance shot from a
revolver. Downing a buffalo robe he
slyly made detour from the boat to
the rear of where the cotton was being
handled, and as he drew near COM
menced making jumps, Stimulating as
nearly as possible the Looping of bear
| through the brake. The passengers as
well as the boat hands soon got
glimpse of him, and then such a scam
pering took place as has seldom been
seen, every one seeming to forget the
brave things he had promised to do
The man who was going to take the bear
by the ears was the worst scared of any,
and in his haste to get on the staging
missed his footing, and would have
gone down the bank but that his cloth.
ing caught in the jagged hook before
mentioned and there he hung suspend
ed, uttering the most fearful shrieks,
The hook had torn his flesh little and
he thought himself in the grasp of the
bear. While he was still hanging there
| the porter came stalking on board with
the big buffalo robe wrapped around
him, la big injun, and appeared to be
quite curious to learn what the row was
about. He had some trouble to make
his peace with his irate victims, but sue
ceeded in persuadng them that it was
entirely unintentional on his part and
that he had not the least idea of being
mistaken for a bear.

Sharp-Witted and Ciose-Fisted.

This is one of the latest stories in
connection with the Scott act: Some
time ago citizen ordered barrel of
cider from a manufacturer not dozen
miles from Guelph. The cider was not
delivered at the time appointed and a
few DAYS afterward the buyer asked the
seller why he did not fill the order. The
answer given was to the effect that he
would like to be paid his money first
The reply was that the money was all
right and to deliver the cider at once.
The seller accordingly went to the resi-
dence Of the purchaser few days after
ward with the cider. He would not de-
liver it until he had received the col
lateral. After some talk the purchaser
handed the man s. bill. As soon as
the order was taken from the wagon
the purchaser remarked: Now, YOU
have PLAYED a pretty sharp trick on me,
doubling my honesty, now | will have
my turn. If you do not pay me back
that s. | will inform on you for selling
contrary to law" The deliverer of the
cider was in fix, SO to speak, but be
was equal to the occasion. After gen.
eral talk. in which it was understood
that the receiver should pay for the
cider at convenience, the matter was
apparently settled. The deliverer then
asked all hands to have a drink, which,
was served. when he Immediately asked
for his So, remarking that he was
not the only man who would be COM
PEELED to pay fine of $50. 1t is need
less to say that the cider was paid for
rthwith.-GUelps (Can.) Mercury.

Hereditary Diseases.

a fallacious notion has somewhere
crept in that an intellectual man must
be below par physicaIy. and that the
one faculty is necessarily cultivated at
the expense of the other. The old pro-
verb, mems Sdna IN corp0re Sdno, has
been fiouted as an absurdity. So much,
very briefly, for the first cause of race
degeneration; the second. and the one
to which this paper would direct atten-
ton, is the influence of hereditary dis
eases. This factor has never received
TIE attention it should have had at the
hands of the writers on social science.
The races Of which We have oeen speak
ing had little of this element to contend
with. The weaklincs were either de-
hberately exposed and lett fo die, as in
the case of the Spartans. or if they at
tained maturity they were held in such
low esteem that they willingly kept in
the background Look for moment
at our modern civilization, and mark
its diametrically opposite tendency.
Every day hospitals are being erected to
nurture the diseased and imperfect
specimens OF our race, and every year
thousands of children are by skill and
care saved from the death to which Ma
tare would consign them. All this ac-
cords with our enlarged notions of
humanity, and reflects great credit on
the zeal of the philanthropist and the
science of the physician, but it exerts q
baneful effect on the race. To one who
has had access to any large city hospi-
tails. it is pitiful sight to see the multi
tude of children who are tided over 2
few years, and sent out into the world
branded with an hereditary taint. to
propagate their wretched breeds. The
limits of this paper will not allow any
extended statistics, nor the nature of it
warrant q special discussion of heredi-
tary diseases, but there are two whose
effects are apparent to all, consumption
and insanity. The former, consump-
ton, using the term IN its widest sense,
has for ages produced the most fright
full ravages For example. in England,
from 1887 to 184l, of the total number
OF deaths from all causes sixteen per
cent were from consumption. In Phila-
delphia. from 1910 to 1849. the death
rate was one of consumption to six and
half from all other causes, or about
fifteen per cent.-Dr. George j. Preston,
IN Popular Science Monthly.

Mr.. TilGen'S GaIlantry,

The late Mr. Tilden was celebrated
for his chivalry. One day, shortly be-
fore his late illness, young lady called
to see his nieces. Mr.. Tilden came into
the room and insisted upon her remain
ing to dinner. Her seat was beside the
host and there were several guests pres
ent, all in elaborate dinner costume and
adorned with beautiful flowers. When
Mr.. Tilden noticed that his young friend
had no corsage bouquet, he quietly gave
orders that flowers be brought The
servant soon appeared with a bunch of
exquisite flowers, more beautiful than
any at the table, and Mr.. Tilden hand
ed them to the young girl with one of
the charming speeches for which he
was famous.-Heg1 York Commercial
