WHOLE WHEAT BREAD.
How to Make This Most wholesome and
PalatabIe Food.

How to Make This Most Wholesome and
PalatabIe Food.
Whole wheat bread should be used al
most to the entire exclusion of that made
from fine white -four. which passes
through so many processes that all the
most essential properties are extracted.
The albuminoids and phosphates in this
whole wheat are retained, the hull be-
ing only excluded. After experimenting
with the different recipes, it is con-
cluded the following makes the better
bread: Three pounds of flour, cake
compressed yeast, 2 tablespoonfuls lard,
2 of sugar, of salt, mixing either with
milk or water, will make three loaves
about the size Of orr bakers 5 cent loaf.
First put your -four in basin, then mix
through it thoroughly the lard, salt and
sugar. Now use wooden spoon for stir
ring in lukewarm water or milk, being
careful to pour III slowly, as it must be
SO thick spoon can scarcely stir. Should
you have it too thin, your bread would
be sticky and soggy. Last put in the
yeast, which has been dissolved in half
a cup of lukewarm water. Now stir it
for ten minutes. when it will be ready
to stand in warm place to get light,
which will not require the length of
time of other bread. When light, put
into pans, letting stand to rise again,
which will be but short time. Then
bake one hour III an oven not hot enough
to burn. It will come out a lovely brown.
All housekeepers are no doubt aware
that bread made in small loaves is bet
ter than the large ones, for the reason
that when loaf is cut and the air
reacte it it will soon dry. But as each
LOAF is cut it seems fresh. Keep wrapped
III a coarse towel and in a tin bread box.
I: also makes lovely toast.
IF children are given this bread rather
than SO much of the fine white, they will
not want to be eating all the while, as
this supplies the necessary food quail
ties the bones and nerves require.

NOSE BLEEDING.
How 1T Is Caused and the Best Means Of
Checking 1t.


Noseblead in children is commonly
supposed to indicate nothing more than
that the child tires easily or is overac-
tive. says The Youths Companion. Yet
even these terms express more than is
obvious upon a casual reading of the
words
If a child tires easily, or, in other
words, if the least overexertiOn at play
or at study results in more or less
severe attack of nosebleed, the child
must be in weakened state, while, on
the other hand, if he is accustomed to
allow his play or his studies SO to alb
sorb his interest as to make him forget
his fatigue, he is placing an injudicious
strain upon his constitution.
In either case he will be benefited by
curtailment of work and an increase
i'll the amount of time allotted for rest,
until his body is more fully developed.
No child s mind can be developed fast
er than the body except at the expense
of health.
Nosebleed occurring in middle life
aud old age is a more serious thing, as
it indicates a graver condition OF affairs
1t is usually coincident with disease OF
the liver, heart Or kidneys. It's cure is
of course dependent upon the restoration
of the organs to normal condition. In
elderly persons the disorder sometimes
appears to result from weakness, which
in turn it aggravates
It is a common saying that in full
blOOded persons an occasional nOSebleed
is beneficial, and this may in a certain
sense be true, inasmuch as the nasal
membranes are thus relieved of conges-
tion. But it is safe to say that bleeding
from the nose is never anything but a
sign of weakness.
The treatment of an attack of nose
bleed consists in absolute rest and cool
applications to the head. The extremi-
ties should be warm. The head should
not be held down over basin, as this
favors the flow of blood. One of the
simplest and most effectual methods Of
stopping an ordinary attack is for the
person to stand erect, with the head in
the usual erect position and the hands
extended at length directly over the
head

How to Make an odd Sofa Pillow.

Make the covering of green plush.
Roses should be cut from white china
silk. These are buttonholed to the plush
with pink Roman floss. Stems and leaves
are outlined with the same material to
form design which has been previous
ly stamped on the plush. Around the
edge is a green, hemstitched rutf1e of
china silk, and over it narrower one
of pink silk, also hemstitched with
Asiatic honiton lace silk. The under
covering Of the pillow should be of green
plush.

How to Improve Defects In the Hands


SEARCHED linen should be placed next
to only those skins that have the firm
ness and perfect texture of youth.
White, starched linen is fatal to almost
any woman S charms. If elderly women
would have their sleeves finished at the
wrist with narrow frill instead of
that stylish cuff and allow ruffle OF
yellow lace to fall over the hand, what a
difference it would make!
The fullness would conceal the awful
wrist bone, the lace would veil and
shadow the hands, and the yellow hue
would make the skin seem white by
comparison.
Cuffs, in the sense of linen folds, are
generally to be tabooed. Any straight,
sharp, abrupt sleeve ending should be
avoided by women whose arms are not
prettily rounded and tapering. Frills
are the salvation of all who have defects
to conceal Women with long hands
should wear the tab style Of cuff, that
falls well over the hand, concealing half
it's blemishes.
Not one woman in hundred should
wear sleeves which reveal the elbow, for
it is generally ugly. Not one woman in
a thousand should go about with really
hare arms-at any rate not until she
has cultivated a state Of absolute
smoothness and marblelike firmness by
scrubbing and massage.
Until then she should indulge in
chiffon undersleeves, which make the
arms beneath them seem beautiful. And
no one whose wrist is not tapering and
smooth should ever wear bracelets.

How to Care For Fuel.

When the fire is burning, small

you let the coal in the latrobe all get

the room with heat, but it will all burn
to white ashes in an hour, when by feed

YOUR SUMMER SKIRTS.
How to Rnaew Petticoats Which Have
Seen Service.

! How to Rnaew Petticoats Which Have
Seen Service.
The wear and tear of warm weather
leaves only too visible traces in the
wardrobe, and petticoats in particular
have hard time of it.
On damp, muddy or dusty excursion
the dress is raised out of harm way,
but the petticoat takes its own share OF
hardship, with the addition Of what be-
longs by right to the dress skirt. Tt is
spotted by water, stained by mud and
grass, permeated by dust, and, how
ever carefully it may be brushed daily,
unless it is of kind that can be wash
ed it's beauty is soon thing of the past.
Silk petticoats suffer most in the cam
paign, although delicate shades of al
paca and moreen do not come forth
scathless.
AS for lace trimmed ones, they ought
to be kept from the outset for house and
piazza wear. The delicate, bell shaped,
much beruff1ed pettiooats of lawn or
cambria that have figured SO well under
sheer organdie gowns will answer quite
as we'll for evening wear during the
winter if they are carefully laundried,
provided that the lace has not been torn.
If it has, it should be replaced, tor
chon or valenciennes being the most de-
sirable variety to use. The frayed and
discolored ruf1es of the silk petticoat
may be ripped off and replaced by fresh
ones, not necessarily of the same color,
the garment itself well shaken and
pressed with warm fatiron before the
new frills are added.
These may be of plain silk if the skirt
is figured, or vice versa if harmony of
color is preserved. Moreen and alpaca
petticoats must be we'll shaken, brushed
and aired and the edges rebound or
freshly faced. If the material has been
wet, it should be pressed.

How to Make a Bureau Scarf.

A bureau scarf which will be nov

linen, cut just little smaller than the
bureau top. This was finished with a
very elaborate cut work pattern, but the
work was done with butter colored ro-

was used over pad Of blue sateen, the
edge of which was trimmed with the
narrowest of butter colored lace, which
was visible outside the cut work edge.

How to Tell the Quality of Drinking Water.

A simple test to ascertain the quality
of drinking water can be made by filing
a decanter half full, tightly corking it
and then violently shaking it for min
ute or more. On uncorking it, if the
slightest disagreeable odor develops,
there is some kind of pollution in it.

Work Being Resumed-

In spite of the dull times and polit
ical agitation manufacturers in some
lines appear yet to have confidence in
the return of prosperity, and are start
ing the wheels going in their estab.
lishments. The dispatches announce
thac-the iron mills Of Ohio will resume
operations at once, putting not less
than 10000 operatives at work, and
from Salem, Or, comes the word that
the new machinery, of the Thos. Kay
woolen mills will be set In motion this
week. 1t cannot reach its full capacity
for few weeks yet. but the carding
process will start up at once, spin
ming and spooling will begin this week,
and within 10 days weavers will begin
to throw the shuttles.
The new Kay wooden mills consist of
20 Knowles looms, including Set of
worsted machinery. The worsted ma
chinery is the only thing OF the kind
west of the Rocky mountains, and
higher grade of cloth will be manu-
tactured than has yet been turned out
On the coast. The weaving of blankets
here will be dispensed with, the COM
pany having decided to make specially
of blankets at the Waterloo mills,
while the Salem mills will manufacture
cassimeres and worsted cloth. The
mills will be kept going night and day,
and, as soon as yarn enough Is made
ahead and the broachers for all the
looms filed, about 100 hands will be
kept employed at the new factory.

Bryan Is Opposed to the Formation of
Trusts and Combines.
James Creelman, a special cores
pondent of the New York World, has
been in Lincoln5. Neb., looking up the
record of Mr.. Bryan, and among other
things says:
When MIR. Bryan was in congress he
was urged to vote against the anti
trust bill kilograms were sent from
the east to Mr.. Talbot asking, him to
urge his partner'to vote against the
bill. Mr. Talbot promptly telegraphed
to Mr.. Byan on the subject, and the
young congressman replied that the
Interests of the common people de-
manded a law protecting them from
the encroachments and com mbinations
of corporate power, He told his part
ner that it was necessary for the life
and prosperity OF the nation that the
competitive principle should be kept
alive, and that anything interfering
with it should be restrained.
He has constantly said that the fail
ure to enforce the antitrust laws
was due to the apathy of the admins
tration at Washington, and he looked
upon the selection of Mr.. Olney for the
Office of attorney-general as a part Of
the general scheme for controlling the
government and rendering popular op-
position to unjust corporate power
futile.
He has said many times that the
attorney general should zeafously
press the anti-monopoly statutes, so
that if they should prove defective
congress should promptly perfect them.
He holds that rich mans property
is as sacred as poor mans, but no
more so, and that the government
should be able to protect it's weakest
citizen against the expressions of the
most powerful corporations.

How Engineers In India Overcome an q

How Engineers In India Overcome an OBJ
stacle In Railroad Building.
On the Calcutta and Southeastern
railroad Of India an unusual construc-
ton has been successfully resorted to -
carry the double-tracked railway lines
over very soft, wet ground, which was
too unstable to support ordinary filling,
says the Indian Engineer. At the
point where the railway crosses the
Pilallee the river flows in an artificial
channel. It formerly made bend at
this point, which carried the stream
about four hundred feet to the west Of
its present course, and 1t thus became
necessary to carry the embanlment
which forms the western approach Of
the bridge across the old channel, the
bottom Of which was sixty feet below
high-water mark and eighty-three feet
below the level Of the line. Accord
ingly the new cut having been exca-
vated, and the lower end Of the old
bed bundled with sand bags to faciH-
tate sitting, the embankment was COM
menced by throwing in earth from the
western bank.
The soil of the locality, like that Of
the Sunderbunds generally, however,
is a soft loan, highly absorptive Of
water, so that the earth thrown in
speedily formed a semi-1uid slush,
which flowed out on both sides, filling
up the old channel, and then flowing
out at one or both ends into the river.
No efforts could succeed in raising the
embankment above the level of high
water, and a quantity Of bamboos
which were laid down with a view to
impede the lateral motion of the earth,
after settling together with the en-
bankment, reappeared after few
weeks some two hundred feet of on
the line of outflow. At length the en-
gineers, finding that there was no hope
of the earth attaining sufficient solidity
to bear the weight Of the emban kment
as hitherto attempted, adopted the ex.
pedient Of constructing a great float
on the same elementary principle, al.
though differently applied in construc-
ton, as that adopted with so much
success by George Stephenson 1t tls
Chat Moss.
