The Fascinating Fisheries Exhibit

In no structure within the Fair
grounds is the outward expression
30 sympathetically reflective Of It's ar
chitectural purpose as i'll the Fisheries
Building. Itself reflected in the blue
lagoon, in its architectural functions
and sculptural ornament it in turn re-
fleets the lacustrine life of the waters,
which not only almost lave its founda-
ton walls but actually pour into its in
terror in fountain and cascade and
gigantic aquaria. AS we follow around
these green translucent walls within,
our passage lit only from the diff1lsed
light transmitted from above the water
we can almost fancy ourselves walking
on the actual river bed, ogled by IA
miliar forms of sun-tish, perch or
pickerel; or perhaps wandering as in
q dream among fair ocean caves
Gbloom with brilliant sea-anemones, and
EMPOWERED with mimic groves of
branching corals and all manner of
softly swaying sea weed-graceful
crimson laminaria reaching to the sur
face of the water, responding i'll SER
pentine grace 30 the soft invasion
of waving fin. Rare living gems Of
fishes, very butterflies of the deep,
float past flashing in iridescence with
every subtitle turn of their painted
bodies. Star-fsh, at first apparently
stationary, as though in midwater,
glide across the illusive plane Of glass,
with their thousand fringy disks of
feet. Strange crabs and mollusks and
bivalves sport on the pebbly bottoms,
and portentous monsters, with great
gaping mouths, threaten us as they
emerge from their nebulous obscurity
and steal to within a few inches of our
faces.-Scribner.

The Dwarf Palm,

The dwarf palm, which furnishes
considerable quantities of fibre, grows
in great profusion in Algeria, and is
of the principal obstacles to the
clearing of the land, SO thickly does it
grow, and so difficult is it to pull up ;
it's roots, in shape resembling carrots,
penetrate into the ground to the depth
of a yard or more, and when it's stem
is only cut it sprouts out again almost
Immediately. AS its name indicates,
this palm is very small, and can only
attain a certain height, when pros
tected, as in the Arab cemeteries, for
example.-New York World.

avoids the long period during which
the yeast made dough must stand in
order that the starch may ferment and
there is also nAkneading necessary.
The two matHials used in the Royal,
cream of tartar and soda, are perfectly
harmless, even when eaten. But they
are combined in exact compromising
weights, SO that when chemical action
begins between then they practically
disappear, the substance of both hay
ing been taken up to form the carbon
ic acid gas. More than this, the
proper method of using the powder
insures the most thorough mixing
with the -four. The proper quantity
being taken, it is mixed with the -four
and stirred around in it. The mix
lure is then sifted several times and
this insures that in every part of the
-four there shall be a few particles of
the powder. The salt and milk or wa
ter being added, the dough is made up
as quickly as possible and moulded
into the loaves.
These are placed in the oven and
baked. But the very moment the
warmth and moisture attack the mix
ture of cream of tartar and soda, these
two ingredients chemically combine
and carbonic acid or ~leavening gas is
evolved. The consequence may be
seen at a glance, the bread is raised
during the time it is baking in the
oven, and this is the most perfect OF
oil conceivable methods of raising it.
Here, then, there is no chance for
germs of disease to get into the dough
and thence into the stomach, more
than that the bread is necessarily as
sweet as possible, there having been
no time during which it could SOU.
This involves the fact that the bread
so made will keep longer, as it is less
likely to be contaminated by the germs
hat affect the souring process.
It will be strange if the crowds of
visitors to the Worlds Fair do not
greatly increase the number of con
tsgious diseases, which we will have to
treat. Under these circumstances is
it not folly of follies to open a single
channel through which these germs
mayreach us? Is it not the part OF
wisdom to watch with the greatest care
all that we eat and drink, and to see
that none but the safest and best meth
DDS are employed in the preparation
of our food? To me it seems as
though there could be but one answer
to questions like these.
I have shown the danger of using
the yeast raised bread, and with this I
have shown how that danger may be
avoided. The ounce of prevention
which in this case is neither difficult
nor expensive is certainly worth many
pounds of cure, and the best thing
about it is that it may be relied on al
most absolutely. Those who eat bread
or biscuits or rolls made at home with
Royal baking powder may be SUR they
have absolutely stopped n channel
through which disease may reach
them. ".
NorE.-Housekeepers desiring informa-
ton in regard to- the preparation Of the bread
which, for sanitary reasons, DR.. Edison 50
strongly urges for general use, should write
to the Royal Baking Powder Company, New
York.

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
emit theory held by scientists Of germs
and the part played by themin disease.
The theory of disease germs is merely
the name given to the knowledge had
o those germs by medical men, a knowl-
edge which is the result of innumera-
BILE experiments. Being this, the old
term of a 'theory" has become @ mis-
homer. A germ of a disease is a plant,
so small that I do not know how to ex-
press intelligibly to the general reader
its lack of size. When this germ is in
troduced into the blood or tissues of
the body, its action appears t. be an
alogous to that which takes place when
yeast is added to dough. It attacks
certain elements of the blood or tissues,
and destroys them, at the same time
producing new substances.
