Bread In Bags.

The handling Of bSad by bakers and
their assistants is ons of those things
which people who are particular in re-
gard to what they eat are constantly
discussing, with a view to getting a
change made in this direction in what
they regard as cleanliness, but it must
be confessed with little if any success.
In Berlin, however, the public agita-
ton Oh the subject has resulted in a
solution Of the difficulty which pre-
cludes the possibility Of unelean hands
touching the loaf. This consists in using
paper bags made to fit the shape of the
loaf, but rather larger. As 0 0 as the
loaf is taken from the oven it is at once
put into the bag, the ends Of which are
twisted, thus preventing the possibility
of its contents being defled either by
dirty hands or by gathering dust in its
transit through the streets, or from be-
ing allowed to fall on dirty pavements,
as SO frequently happens with careless
boys who deliver the daily loaf at our
doors. The idea might be fifty emulated
by bakers in this country, for paper
bags are cheap.-Chieago Times-Herald.

Another Chicago woman, Mrs. Flor

it in life. Her marriage proved unhap-
Ply, and when she sought to get along
alone her child was abducted by agents
Of it's father. She fought for the little
fellow in the courts, but lost her case.
Lately she has been doing chamber
maid work in a hotel. It was a polices
man who looked Mrs. Frost up and told
her that her cousin, s. McC. McPhers
son of New York was searching for her,
and that she had fallen heir to 5000, 000.
When Mrs. Frost heard the news,
she tossed her cap and buster on the

In the game for team work team two
