THE ANTIQUITY OF BAKING.


Breadmaking n Prehistoric Art-Egyp
tians as Bakers and Their Skill
The origin OF baking precedes the period Of
history and is involved in the obscurity OF
the early ages of the human race Excava-
tons made in Switzerland gave evidence that
the art of making bread was practiced by
our prehistoric ancestors as early as the stone
period. From the shape of loaves it is
thought that no ovens were used at that
time, but the dough was rolled INTO small,
round cakes and laid on hot stones being
covered with glowing ashes. Bread is men
toned in the boo; Of Genesis. where Abra-
ham. wishing TO entertain three anrels Of
ferel 10 fetch a morsel Of bread Baking
is again referred to where Sarah has instruc-
tions to ''mal;e ready quickly three measures
of fine meal knead it, and make cakes upon
the hearth Lot entertained two angels by
giving them unlesyened bread. The mere
mention Of unleavcned bread shows that
there were two kinds Of bread made even at
that time
Tho art Of baking was carried TO high
perfection among the Egyptians, who are
said 10 have bakei cakes in many fantastic
shapes, using several kinds of -four. The
bakeries were numerous on the streets Of
Rome. In England the business Of the baker
was considered to be one so closely affecting
the interests Of the public that in 1865 an act
OF parliament was passed regulating the price
to charged for bread This regulation con
tluued in operation until ls21 in London, and
until 1896 in the rest Of the country. The
art of making bread las not vet reached
some countries in Europe and Asia In the
rural parts Of Sweden no bread Is innde. but
rye cakes that are baked twice a wear and are
as hard as flint 1t is less than a century ago
that bread was used in Scotland, the Scotch
people Of every class living on barley ban
nocks and oaten cakes.
Owing 10 the fact that bread is sold very
cheaply in Great Britain. the bakers of that
country are poorly paid class of laborers.
For years the employers made use Of child
labor to such an extent that parliament in
1868 passed law making it criminal of.
tense to employ young person under the
age Of IS years to work in a bakehouse be
tween the hours of 3 O'Clock p. M. and {
o'clock a. m. As most Of the work done BY
bakers is in the night, this statutory law ir
Great Britain virtually prohibits child Labor
in bake houses. In all countries of the worlC
wheat flour is the principal material for max
ing bread although rye Is used largely among
the peasantry in some parts Of Europe. tn,
price Of bread has always followed the mar
ket price Of wheat very closely. aud a recen

A Statement That Puts Young King in
Bad Light.

A Statement That Puts Young King in a
Bad Light.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. ia Cleveland
o. special to The Times regarding the
woman Beechler, who killed Harry W King
in Omaha, Saturday, says that her parents
live in Cleveland, and that Mrs Maggie
Beechler, mother of the murderess, yester-
day told the chief of police the following
story of her daughters life and downfall:
My daughter Lizzie Beechler first met King at
a country hotel near Cleveland, where she was
working. He was dashing young fellow. and it
was case of mutual admiration. Soon after the
girl went with him to Chicago, from whence she
wrote to her mother, saving that she had married
King, Her letters were frequent, and always
spoke of King in loving terms
About two years ago she paid visit to her
! family in Cleveland King came for her
and she returned with him to Chicago,
| taking with her a younger sister and her 9
| year-od brother. Last spring Mrs. Beech
| Ter paid her daughter a visit and found her
| living in splendid style and apparently
| happy. The tone of her letters never
changed until week ago, when Lizzie wrote
home saying she had had some trouble with
| her husband. The next news the mother
heard was the story of the murder. Mr..
| Beeehler, Lizze'S father, is poor man liv-
| ing in Cleveland
