fun out of your persistency in doing
this. But you are not bound to amuse

SOME SANITARY ASPECTS OF
BREAD MAKING.
By CYRUs EDISON, NJ. D.,

Health Commissioner. New York City.
1t is necessary, if one would under
stand the sanitary aspects of bread
making, to fully comprehend the pres
ent theory held by scientists of germs
and the part played by them in disease.
The theory of disease germs is merely
the name given to the knowledge had
of those germs by medical men. a
knowledge which is the result of in
Vulnerable experiments. Being this,
the old term of a theory" has become
d misnomer. A germ of a disease is a
plant, SO small that | do not know
how to express intelligibly to the gem
eral reader its lack Of size. When this
germ is introduced into the blood
OF tissues of the body, its ac-
ton appears to be analogous to that
which takes place when yeast is added
to dough. 1t attacks certain elements
of the blood or tissues, and DESTROYS
them, at the same time producing new
substances.
But the germs of the greater part of
the germ diseases, that is. of the infec-
tlousa and contagious diseases, will de-
velop or increase in number without
being in the body of a human being.

HOW INSECTS MAKE MUSIC.
katydids Rub Their Shoulder Blades and
Gra~sshoppers strike Their Wings.

Kstydids Rub Their Shoulder Blades and
G~rasshoppers Strike Their Wings.
Everybody is familiar with the music
of the katydid. Here, again, says the
Washington Star, it is the male that
has the voice. At the base of each
wing cover is a thin membraneous
plate. He ~elevates the wing covers
and rubs the two plates together. If
you could rub your shoulder blades to-
gether you could initiate the operation
very nicely.
Certain grasshoppers make a sound
when flying that is like a watchman's
acknowledgements, very rapidly re-
peated. There are also some moths
and butterflies which have voices. The
deaths head" moth makes a noise
when frightened hat strikingly re-
sembles the crying of a young baby.
How it is produced is not known,
though volumes have been written on
the subject. The mourning cloak
butterfly-a dark species with a light
border in it's wings-makes a cry OF
alarm by rubbing it's wings together.
The katydids, crickets, Grasshoppers
and other musical insects are all ex-
a~ggerated in the tropics, assuming
giant forms. Thus their cries are pro-
portionately louder. There is an East
Indian cicada which makes a remark
ably loud noise. 1t is called by the
natives 'dundub." which means drum.
From this name comes that of the
genus, which is known as dundubia.
This is one of the few scientific terms
derived from the Sanskrit.
The 'deathwatch" isa popular name
applied to certain beetles which bore
into the walls and floors of old houses.
They make a ticking sound by stand
ing on their hind legs and knocking
their heads against the wood quickly
and forcibly. 1t is a sexual call. Many
super5titions have been entertained re-
speeding the noise produced by these
insects, which is sometimes imagined
to be a warning of death.
Entomologists have succeeded in re-
cording the cries of many insects by
the ordinary system of musical nota-
ton. But this method does not show
the actual pitch, which is usually sew
eral octaves above the staff. 1t mere
ly serves to express the musical inter
walls. 1t is known with reasonable GER
talnty that many insects have voices
so highly pitched that they cannot be
heard by the human ear. One evidence
of this fact is that some people can dis
tinguish cries of insects which are not
audible to others.

sweet as possible. there having been
no time during which it could sour.
This involves the fact that the bread
SO made will keep longer, as it is less
likely to be contaminated by the germs
that affect the souring process.

mechanical. The dough, which was
before a cl~ose-grained mass, is now
full of little holes, and when cooked in;
this condition is what we ordinarily
call light. This porous quality of
bread enables the stomach to rapidly
and easily digest it, for the gastric
juices quickly soak into and attack it
from all sides. The fermentation of
the dough, however. uses up a portion
of the nutrient elements of the loaf.
If it be possible, therefore, to produce
a light porous loaf without this de-
struction and without the ''kneading"
process. which fills the dough with
germs and filth. and without the long
period during which the raising process
goes on. the gain in food and the gain
in the avoidance of the germs is ex-
ceedingly plain.
But while we car easily see the dan
gers which attend the use Of yeast it is
certain hat the vesiculating effect
produced by it on the dough is to the
last degree perfect. By this | mean

its little bubble of gas and that there

doubt that could we trace back some
of the cases of illness which we meet

that the heat has not been sufficient to
