So much has been said and writer
about the unhealthiness of eating hot
bread that it's lovers will be comfortcd
to know that the doctors do not all
talk the same way about it. DR..
Troitzki, writing to Russian medical
Journal, says that after careful exam
ination he has found that new and un-
cut bread contains no nitro-organisms,
Us the heat necessary to cook the bread
has destroyed them all. After bread has
been cut and allowed to stand around
for awhile it quickly collects bacteria,
as it is an excellent medium for them
to thrive on. Wheat bread. he thinks,
gathers bacteria faster than rye. as the
latter has more acidity. Now all pco-
pie who love hot bread can cat it with
the comfortable feeling that. while it
may not be quite as digestiblc as stale
bread, it is free from the bacteria,
which are making the world so uncom-
Portable in these days. A little dys-
napsia Is better than tho chN'ora.

Effective spreads, pillow snams, scarf

small pieces of unbleached muslin or
cheesecloth, which usually find their
way to the family rag-bag. A glance
at the accompanying illustration will
give a general idea of the result
achieved. If muslin is used, it should
not be too firm and heavy, A sheer
quality will make prettier daisies. Cut
from paper pattern in the shape of
q circle. five inches in diameter, using,
perhaps. plain saucer as guide.
Then cut number of circles from the
cloth turn the edge Of each, and with
needle and strong thread gather this
outer edge, fatten down the ball thus
formed. and secure the gathering in
center. To do this take needle-

of stitches crossing this center gather

cient number have been made. fasten
the edges together by sewing upon the
wrong side for distance of about half
an inch. The spaces which are thus
left betwe-n the daises are to be filed
in with unoleached linen thread with
the spider stitch which will be famil-
lar to anyone who has done lace work
of any sort. II the stitch is worked
from the under side or back of the dai-
sizes. a better opportunity for securing
the thread will be given. First catch the

where two daisies are fastened to-

fastening and catch through, twist the
thread back around the first thread to
