BROWN BREAD AS v DIET.


gentleman from Virginia writes me
tnat he has been for four weeks on an ex-
cluslVe diet Of brown bread for the cure OF
oyspeI sia, and he thinks he is not so well
as when he com nencsd The bread was
made Of graham -four, and rye and Indian
meal, cred with molasses. He was
Obliged TO send way down coast for the
rye meal"
For an irritated and sensitive stomach
nothing could lie worse than this kipd OF
bread. The meal is too rough, and the
inolasses Is pretty sure to produce fei menta-
ton. IL Is conglome alton and con-
sequ ntiy very hard t. d gest. This Is the
staple bread of the New England farmer;
aid when eaten with well prepared aud
well baked pork and beans ia not bad TO
take. But it is not so nice half an hour
later unless one is possessed OF a perfect
digestive apparatus.
A PALATABLE SOUP.
The bread. maker Of one Of our frst-class
New York hotels who is obliged TO cater to
the dyspeptic and has decided genius in
that way, gave me recipe for soup and
for rolls which / have found delicious and
strengthening. Take pound and half
or perfectly lean beef-from the round
and cook 1t until 1t is tender, with pint OF
lima beans. Have enough water to keep
the beans from burning, and cook slowly.
Add salt, a stick of celery and ur whole
without breaking, Ii possible, and then put
the contents of the pot through a colander.
Add to this milk enough 20 make
the soup proper consistency, and heat
up again. Serve in hot plates with the
rolls made as follows: One quart OF -four
sifted three times, n little sails, a tea SPOON
full OF gfanuiated sugar, and warm milk in
which a Fleischmann's yeast cake has been
dissolved, aud half cup of sweet butter
Rub the butter into the sifted Il lur, and
make soft dough. Cover and let rise.
When very light add the well beaten whites
OF two eggs, aud sift in -four enough to roll
out. Roll into strips about as thick as a
knife blade, and quarter of yard long.
Twist two OF these together. place IN well
buttered pans and let rise again. Tine thin
ner these strips can be rolled the better.
Bake in a quick oven. OF course
the roll is all crust, end so the
offensive and destructive wads Of
dough are entirely eliminated from the
delicacy. This seems like great deal OF
work, but it really is not. The rule can be
doubled, and the rolls can be beautifully
warmed up for a week. My friendly bread
chef had used the whites OF twenty eggs in
his batch the morning called upon him. I
saw some of the rolls taken out Of the oven
and despaired of attaining SUCH symmetry
in home manufacture. But those made in
| my kitchen taste just as well as tho chefs,
though must confess that the twists ard
not quite 30 regular But perfection will
come with practice.
PULLBACK DRESSES.
A Charleston lady is much exercised
about ''pullbacks.' She thinks shat
dresses which are tightly drawn tack over
the figure are vulgar and vet ''if such COS
tunes are to be worn by the beau mondeo
she feels that she cannot afr ird to disregard
the style Such confession is almost tod
| puerile for moments consideration, bat
| will answer that the attempt TO revile q
| very inconvenient and innlodgst fashion
has this time been attempted by the demf
monde. This piece Of news was told me by
| one OF New York's best designers, who was
| In o position to know exactly what he
| was talking about The simple, graceful,
| light weight, shortski is now the universal
| favorite. There is more trimming round
the bottom Of the skirt than has lately been
seen, bat this is entirely matter OF tasta
with the wearer. Dsm trains are worn al
evening receptions, and it il astonishing ia

ments for eve desc iption of skirt to be 80
fastened about the waist as to hang from
the shoulders. thus relieving the hips and
abdominal organs from all strain and
weight. ELEHoR kirk.
