Half the failures with housekeepers
in making good bread, are due to their
ignorance as TO tho proper condition
of the oven for baking. For, no matter
how perfectly the sponge may rise or
how well it is worked, if put in cool
oven it will be porous and tough, and
liable to ferment and become, sour.
When bread is ready to bake, the oven
should be very hot, as the heat will
cause it to rise at once almost double
its former size. A good test for the
inexperienced is to sprinkle little
flour on the bottom of the oven; if it
browns Immediately the bread can be
safely set in.
If bread is allowed TO rise too much
before setting in the oven it is apt
to fall and rise again, by which it will
become coarse. This can be prevented
by working the bread done, adding
fresh flour and molding in the pans
the flour will keep the bread from
souring, as it might do without it.
After a crust is formed on the bread,
the oven should be allowed to moderate
little, and be kept at regular heat
until the bread is done. When taken
from the pans the loaves should be
placed, uncovered, in such position
as will expose the surface to the air.
This will prevent the crust from being
hard, as well as permit the rapid es,
cape of gas involved in the process OF
fermentation. Ladies Home Compan.

THE CARE or sErp rorArors.


Successful growers of potatoes have
learned that TO insure good crop the
seed must be selected carefully the
previous fall. The beS results come
from making the hills rs they are dug,
choosing well-formed potatoes, free
from scab or prongs aud with smooth
surfaces. Neither the very largo nor
very small potatoes should be taken.
The first will be misshapen, and the
last will be apt to be poorly ripened.
Something depends on how the potato
has been grown. If the vines kept
healthy until the crop of tubers was
fully ripened, the very smallest make
good seed. After selection the main
point is 20 keep the seed at as low
temperature as possible without dan
ger of frost These conditions are best
secured by keeping potatoes in dry out
of doors pits. In our Northern eli
mate after the covering of the pit has
frozen over it will not thaw out again
all winter. If there is danger OF thaw-
ing too early, covering of straw will
maintain an even degree of tempera-
ture below freezing, while protecting
the potatoes from too much cold. The
tubers will come out with eyes as DOR
mant as when they. were put in the pit.
The potatoes will be harder by evapo-
ration of their moisture, while those
kept in cellars will be made soft by
starting of the eyes, which rapidly
take out the substance needed to give
the potato set its first start after being
planted. Boston Cultivator.

whom he felt the greatest respect. The
waiter said 10 tho gentleman ''wiu you

Yes, was the answer. The young mans
craving for strong drink was aroused nj the

The Pittsburg Dispatch quotes an eminent
physician, DIR. r. II. Dalton, as recommend
ing, on the ground of health, the methodi-
cal use of "cold water" as beverage and
as saying that II will prove the means OF
angmenting the chance of longevity that 1t
Is OF soundly physiological origin, and is
well supported by experience. DR.. Dalton
says that solid and dry as the human body
appears, water constitutes more than one
fourth its bulk, and all the functions of life
are really carried on In water bath, and al
though the sense of thirst may be trusted to
call for draught of water when required,
the fluid can be imbibed advantageously for
many reasons besides merely satisfying
thirst. He maintains that the habit Of drink
Ing water in moderate quantities between
meals contributes TO health, and indicates
the fact that those who visit health resorts
Tor the purpose of imbibing the wazers OF
minera! springs, might profit by staying at
home and drinking more water and less
whisky. II DR.. Dalton is right, there is GER
tainly no need of rosorting to alcoholic
beverages of any ykind.-National temperance

No boy expects to become drunkard
when he begins to drink. In fancied secur-
ity youth OF generation after generation have
embarked in the current of tippling only to
be drawn into the rapids OF appetite and an
ally plunged over the awful abyss OF drunk
enness. To prevent this and thus save the
childhood of to-day and the Nation OF to-
morrow for an intelligent sobriety, is the
first object sought by what are called the
temperance education laws already enacted
by the National Congress for schools under
Federal control and by thirty-six out OF forty
four States that constitute the United States.
In these schools are the overwhelming ma
jorities of the future, the law-making power
OF tomorrow.
Every years experience and observation
strengthens the faith in the prophecy that
ten years from the day when physiological
temperance is as thoroughly taught In all the
schools as geography and arithmetic the al
cohol question will be settled and settled
Alright in this Republic by popular intelli-
gence with corresponding habits Hard, in
deed, must be the heart of the man or woman
who could deliberately withhold the utmost
warning science has against strong drink
and other narcotics from the children under
his or her care.

scABBY LEGS AMONG CAGE BIRDS.

The cause of scabby feet and legs
among canary and other cage birds is
the same as among domestic fowls, that
is, the presence of mites, which breed
and live in the scabs or scales on the
feet and legs. The development and
multiplication of these pests is due to
want of cleanliness and thorough clean
ing of the birds cage. Your bird may
have been infested with mites when
you bought it, or they may have been
in the cage, and from it reached the
birds legs and feet. To kill the mites
and remove the scabs you have only to
anoint the bird'sle legs and feet daily for
perhaps n week with flowers of sulphur
mixed to thin paste with common
kerosene. Apply with soft hair
pencil, merely painting the feet and
legs with the mixture The scabs will
soon drop off and leave the feet clean.
The cage and roosts should also be
thoroughly cleaned with boiling hot
water. New York Sun.

IMPROVED METHOD OF rArrENNe FOWL.

ANA hONhb mhlhOp Of tAIIENlNG FOWLS.
Some time ago a method of fatten-
ing poultry practiced among the
French was described in some of the
American papers, its novelty giving
interest to il. The method consisted
in forcing the food down the birds
throat by means of pipe and sort
OF force pump, operated by the per-
sons foot, by which a certain quantity
of the soft food was pushed into the
throat. The birds were confined in
boxes in n large circulating frame,
which was turned as needed to bring
all the nests in turn in front of the
machine for feeding. Nothing came
of it, and probably the method has
been abandoned by its inventor by
this time. The method of fattening
geese in Strasburg, Germany, for the
sake of the enormously large livers
thus procured, is somewhat similar to
this. The food is rolled into sort of
pill, long and narrow, and these are
pushed down the throats of the birds,
confined in coops for the purpose.
This method has long been practiced
and still exists for producing the large
hvers, made so by disease, for the
making of very popular kind of pies
called pates de foie gras. New York

PROM MISS w1.LARD's ANNUAL ADDRESS.

fHoM MISS WILLARD ANNUAL ADDRESS.
Everything is not in the Temperance Re-

In everything.
The Temperance cause started out well
nigh alone, but mighty forces have joined US
int the long march. Science has come up
with its glittering contingent, political econ
ony displays its legions, the woman question
brings an Amazonian army upon the field,
and the stout ranks of labor stretch away as
lar as the eye can reach.
The church that within the next genera
tion opens widest doors of ecclesiastical free
dom to women will be the church OF Gospel
triumph and heavenly benediction.
The great world brain is becoming satu-
rated with the idea that It is reasonable and
kind TO let strong drink alone.
The high caste Hindoos have received the
impression that Christianity means intemper-
ance, but they have learned that the Saliva
tion Army Is teetota. and for this reason
they think more highly OF its members than
OF any other religious sect that comes to
them from the West.
Only as the outcome OF our Christian pro-
fession tends toward the greatest uplift and
truest happiness OF man, woman and child,
does ii deserve the credence of the world (;
we must not forget that under its Rgis to-day
are sheltered the liquor traffic, the opium
trade and the protection Of impurity by law.

Whoever laughs at a total abstainer shows
himself lacking in a clear mind as well as a
good heart, for to take such precaution on
ones account as a matter of prudence is
surely conformable to reason, and to take it
in order TO make II easier for Others to do
the same is eonformable to the Golden Rule
and the highest dictates OF brotherhood.
The world owes no man living, but 1t
does owe him the work by which he may
live In helpful and honorable fashion.
We shall reap what we have sown, and we
must SOW the principles of brotherhood IL
we would reap the socialism of the Gospel.

look into the cause and not deal forever
