HOW TO MAKE YEAST.
Tie Home Preparation of This Essential
Ingredient In BreadmalSing.

Tie Home Preparation of This EssCnIiai
Ingredient In Breadmalsing.
In the preparation Of yeast absolute
cleanliness of all the utensils used iBnec-
essary TO success. For this reason it is
letter to prepare the yeast in porcelain
lined saucepan ,'nd set It to rise in
stone pot. The best yeast for family use
will keep for two months in the winter
andin the summer also il kept III a good
refrigerator. TO make this measure out
a cupful Of dry hops, pour pint of boil
ing water over them and let them sim
mer in porcelain saucepan for 25 min
utes.
The saucepan should be kept fof this
special purpose. as it win be strongly i'm
pregnated with the flavor of hops Strain
the boiling hot hop water over a pint Of
hot mashed potatoes, stirring it in grad
ually. Add q cupful Of sugar, a cupful Of
salt and q cupful of flour, mixed to-
gether. Beat this mixture thoroughly 50
rs to remove all Jumps. It's just as well
to mix the dry ingredients with the pota-
toes before pouring ON the hot hop wa.
ter When q thin. even batter is formed,
add 4 quarts of boiling water. Let this
mixture stand till it is barely blood
warm. Then add good cake of grocer's
yeast.
After homemade yeast has once been
started no grocer's yeast is needed. Two
cupfuls Of it will be sufficient to start u
new batch, and should be saved each
time for this purpose. Set the yeast over
night behind the stove or in some place
where it will be kept at uniform tenn
perature Of about 80 degrees. 1t is not
strictly necessary that this temperature
should be maintained all night, but it is
desirable that the yeast should be kept
in quite q warm place for at least six
hours in order to start the fermenta-
ton. The yeast should be carefully COW
cred after it is set to rise, and in winter
ii should be wrapped about with warm
cloth and thick newspapers, if nothing
else is convenient, in order to keep in the
heat.
In the morning the yeast should be
well covered with beads Of foam. Bent
well, and let it rise IL hours longer, beat
ing several times. When ready to put
away, it should be thick mass of white
foam, Put in two stone jugs holding a
gallon each and tie the corks down with
strings for a week or two, advises the
New York Tribune, authority for the
foregoing. With this yeast uso only
teaspoonful of salt for four loaves Of
bread.

these % cut of the wool.
Fourth Row-One row of 30 double
crochet, on which 10 single crochet to

The hood is made Of 70 rows of double

the IL rows are done, double the work in
two on the wrong side, putting the first
double crochet Of the twelfth row against
the last Of the same row, and sew up the
10 double crochet on each side; work the
hood on TO the cape by arrow of frightened
stitches, which is also done on the two
extremites of the cape notcoyered by the
hood. On this row an intermediate space
is left by the separated double crochet

things useful, but not always agreeable
to look at.
The old time screen was cumbersome
affair, composing often eight or ten
leaves and standing feet or more i'll
height. Modern screens afford an infinite
variety Of kinds, embracing light and
heavy screens, small and large, costly
and inexpensive. The japanese screens,
with their light weight frames, rank
among the popular sorts.
Screens are in favor for dining rooms,
where they are placed to cut off drafts or
conceal the buffers pantry beyond, The
most simple are covered with reddish
brown from Japanesepapers ofincompar-
able decoration. There are other screens
made Of light white wood with panels,
the lower part of which is simple. while
the upper part is windowed with little
mirrors rather square than rectangular,
the wood generally covered with white
lac.
Very comfortable are the screens in
vented for the hearth. These envelop
the front Of the fireplace, and an OPEN
ing in the lower part Of the principal
panel permits one to warm the feet with
out feeling the heat of the Goals III the
face. Then there are little table screens,
with three glazed leaves, which, without
interrupting the view, protect the head
against the drafts that escape from open
doors and permit us to work or to dine
in the shelter of the zephyr provokers Of
neuralgia,

That of the very lean meat or Goldfish
consists mostly of what are called i'll
chemical language protein compounds,
or flesh formers substances which
make blood, muscle, tendon, bone, brain
and other nitrogenous tissues.
That of the bread contains but littl9
of these and consists chiefly of starch,
with little fat and other compounds,
which serve the body as fuel and supply
it with heat and muscular power. The
nutritive substance Of oysters contains
considerable of both the flesh forming
and the more especially heat and force
giving ingredients. Oysters come nearer
to milk than almost any other common
food. Their values for supplying the
body with material to lsuild up its parts,
repair its wastes and furnish it with
heat and energy would be pretty nearly
the same,

Household Hints.

For scalds from hot water or stoves
there is nothing more apt to be handy
than baking soda. Wet it up soft and
apply freely. If the burn is superficial
or of slight extent, binding it up with
this is all that will be necessary.
No matter how large the spot of oil,
any carpet or woolen stuff can be cleaned
by applying buckwheat plentifully and
faithfully, brushing it into. a dustpan
after q short time and putting ON fresh
until the oil has disappeared.
A lump of camphor in your clothes
press will keep steel ornaments from tar
nishing.
Strong tepid soda water will make
glass very brilliant; then rinse in cold
water and wipe dry with linen cloth
A goblet of hot water taken just after
rising, before breakfast, has cured thou
sands Of cases Of Indigestion. and no sim
pie remedy ia more widely recommended
to dyspeptics.

Women phrslcians In Turkey.

Judge Terrell, the United States min
lister, has just gained u notable diplo-
matte victory. For several years the
number Of female physicians in Turkey
has been increasing, Notwithstanding
the fact that Turkish law refused to
recognize them as legitimate practition-
ers. Foremost among them have been
the American missionaries, who have
repeatedly won the highest praise for
their self denying work. They have,
however, been greatly hampered by the
fact that they could not secure regular
Turkish diplomas, and the various for
eign embassies have been very earnest
in their efforts to gain for them official
recognition. Hitherto they have failed
entirely, but at last Turkish conserya-
tism has yielded, and to the American
embassy belongs the honor Of securing
what neither Russian, French, British
nor German ambassadors could gain.

Physic is proverbially nauseous, and
in some cases a little may be done to dis
guise the taste, Castor oil is best taken
in milk, coffee or brandy. 1t may be
made into a tasteless emulsion by adding
q little cinnamon water OF orange flower
water and a dropor two Of oil of lemon.
This is as palatable as milk if properly
made. Epson salts may be disguised by
peppermint water, Quinine or cinchona
by milk, senna by cloves and aloes by
liauorice.

THE REVIVAL OF SCREENS.
Being Decorative, Protective and othe

Being Decorative, Protective and othes-
wise Useful, They Are Very Welcome.
The Decorator and Furnisher is au-
thority for the statement that there is a
revival of screens. Housewives general
ly, and everybody in particular, ought
to be glad, for there is nothing more
charming, more intimate, more conf
Dental, more decorative, than pretty
screen, with its elegant games and large
leaves embelhshed by exotic decorations
or original arabesques. Formerly the
screen was looked upon as an indispen-
sable and protecting article of furniture,
being an ingenious and practical obstacle
to the drafts Of air that cause such fire.

Urging the use Of oysters as food, an
exchange says: Speaking roughly, quart
of oysters contains, on the average, about
the same quantity Of actual nutritiye
substance as quart of milk, or pound
Of very lean beef, or pound and half
of fresh Goldfish or two-thirds Of a pound
Of bread. But while the weight Of actual
nutriment in the different quantities Of
food material named is very nearly the
same the quality is widely different.
