MATRIMONIAL RESTRICTIONS

The restrictions imposed on widows
and other legatees with regard to matri-
mony are often arbitrary and sometimes
smack of cruelty. A husband, in one
case reported recently, left his widow an
annual income of 81 900, which was to be
reduced to $500 in the event of the lady
marrying again. Another reduction of
5000 was to be made on the birth of the
first child of the second marriage. and
every additional child was to involve the
further loss of 500 a year.-Chamber's

Human Arm Kneading.

Where the kneading of dough is
performed by hand it is impossible
even under the most favorable cir
cumstances to prevent the exuding
of the sweat of the brow and more
particularly of the powerful arms
that are dived up to the armpits
into the pillows of flour and water
which they are to knead, Added
to this is the putting and blowing of
all kinds of breath, charged with
tobacco, drink, or the germs of an
impaired health, or merely the in
trinity of sneezing during the pass.

And what concourse of bacilli,

those bakers who are still obliged to
resort to this means of kneadiug
dough be it stated that there are
many people who do not mind it all.
A lady scrupulously clean in every
thing else, expressed the conviction
that all of the above named flavor
ings disappeared in the heat to
which the bread was exposed in the
process of baking. Faith is half
the cure and such customers are
quite likely to live long enough to
see out the last pair of human arm
kneaders. There must of course be
exceptions to prove rule, and the
rule is that the more the public
sees and hears of the manual pro.
cess of making bread, the more
they shrink from eating it, and the
more they patronize those bakeries
where machininery is used, and
bread is made almost untouched by
hand.
