WHEN Is BREAD GOOD?

The cost of bakers and homemade bread does
not differ materially when the hOusekeeper counts
labor and fuel In estimating the of making
the bread at home. But when the fuel would be
BAKING bread without extra expense. that item
should hardly be counted in the cost Again. when
labor Is hired by the week in the of the
cook or general house worker the time of the
worker Is available for bread making and does
not mean loss OF time which could he more
prontabiy employed. Hence the item for labor
may in these cases be eliminated Taking out the
cost of both labor and fuel only the cost of
terlals remains. This averages 2-942 cents pound
OF bread, and may be reduced has been shown.

on the other hand. in cases where the house
keepers aim is 10 put out of the house much
work possible. the reduction of service secured
element in reducing the expense for labor. Pro-
vided a satisfactory article be secured il
would probably be economical to buy 1t ready
made.
That the quality Of bakers bread is not better
Is due In part 10 ignorance on the part of the
consumer well TO the baker. There is no
common and accepted standard of what really
good bread is, and naturally. in the absence of
SUCH a standard, the baker has developed the
making OF bread purely in the commercial spirit
OF making the greatest quantity with the least
expenditure of energy and money. 1t cannot be
expected that the baker will of his own initiative
attempt to make more nutritious bread until he
feels the pressure of / general demand. Yet IL ia
OF the general housewOrkers' production, baker
bread present Is of at least good quality
as the bread prepared in many homes.
The purchase of bread outside the home offers
Most housekeepers find it more convenient to make
several ioaveS of the same kind each baking.

WOrkmen's Old-Age Pensions.
ON the New York World

Following the example Of Germany the
French government Is about to esta bliSh
state pension system for old and dsa-
bled wOrkingmen. Like the system found
ed by Bismarck, 1t Is based on compulsory
saving on the part of the workingmen
themselves So much for every week they
are at work is kept back by their employ
ers and turned over to the pension fund.
The state adds so much more. and guaran-
tees certain pension for the balance of
his life to every workman who reaches the
age of retirement (SiXty-fve) or becomes
disabled before. The French france min
lister states the ultimate amount which the
state will contribute to the pension fund
at $33 100000 year. Assuming that the
workmen to whom old age and disability
pensions are assured contribute the same
amount. 1t will cost in all 500. 600 900 to in
sure every workingman in France from
want. The United States is disbursnE
nearly two and half times that sum for
war pensions alone. Meantime 1t Is inter-
esting to note that while the European
plan of state pension funds for workmen ia
not adapted to American conditions. yolun-
tary pension systems established by agree
ments between railroad and other corpora
lions and their employees are growing more
numerous in this country. The Illinois
Central railroad has just retired 200 of it's
veteran employees on old age pensions The
Pennsylvania railroad has an admirable
pension system. Boston has voluntarily
created pension system for her public
school teachers. and nearly all cities have
police pension funds. The idea Is steadily
advancing.

He and Mr.. Randle are old friends. and
the latter tells IN interesting story of an
unusual incident which occurred during tho

General Hooker. he says. was a confed-

States exported over $1O,OOOOOO worth OF
domestic farm produce. A total of s40S,-
100000 was purchased by the united king
DOM, while Germany bought $1S4. 00O. 600
worth. The agricultural exports of the
country to the united kingdom during the
year We're the greatest on record except
ing those of the year 1898, when a total
value of $4:s9, 100000 was reached. In regard
to Germany, the exports show an increase
Of about 100 per cent in the five-year ne
riod. Following the countries above named
come others in the positions indicated:
The Netherlands, $50. 900 00O these figures
being exceeded only in 1899 by less than

Public Baths.
From the Kansas City Star.


There ought to be more public baths in
Kansas City 1t is Just, as proper that the
municipality should build, and operate them
as it is to pave the streets and maintain
parks. When the rule Is once established
that the creation Of free public baths is a
municipal obligation. and not a work OF
private benevolence. the people will use
them, just as they accept popular education
and the protection Of the police and fire
department and the public library 1t
is curious thing that modern cities do
not have generally these adjuncts of an
ctent metropolitan life. Kansas City ac-
quires public water works. a vast assembly
hall and free public bath and is praised
for Its enterprise in securing things which
were customary thousands Of years ago. 1t
has been emulated by other cities In its
convention hall. and no doubt the free pub
lie bath will have the same effect. Even
the greatest cities do not have free public
baths on scale making them generally
available to the people. When the city
comes into its own that Is to say, when It
has attained the right to use its fine credit
and raise the public revenues equal to its
resources. then 1t can have free public
baths on large scale in all parts Of town.

GOV. ALLEEs RETURN.
Old Rumer Of Hif rntsndeA Resis.a-
tfon Hevisea.

tfoM HeviSea.
The State Depart Ment has been notified
by Governor Allen 7of the action of the
Porto Rican Legislature Id adopting the free
trade resolution. BY, maj, came an advance
copy of the resolution before it was acted
upon, and the cablesrami received by Act
ing Secretary Hill informed him that the
resolution. as mailed. had been adopted.
One Of the para graphs lin the resolution
requests Governor Alberto present them
in person to President Mckinley. and it is
the understanding that Che governor will
do this The MayftowerS his station shin.
which has been on the Venezuelan coast
for the past month, looking after American
interests In that quarter, has returned to
San Juan. and she win convey the COVER
nor. probably accompanied by q legislative
committee. to Hampton Roads. whence
they viii come to Washington and execute
their mission, even IL this involves a visit
to Canton. Inasmuch. as the resolution
requests that free trade go into effect on
the 18th of the present month, and it is
desirable that mail copies OF the Presi-
dents proclamation notifying the public
of that fact shah be promulgated In ad-
vance Of that date simultaneously in the
United States and Porto Rico, 1t will b..
seen that little time is available for tho
work to be done, and the Mayffower prob
ably will start northward in day or two.
The approaching return of Governor AL
len to the United States has had the eff
feet Of reviving the old rumor Of his in
tended resignation as governor of Porto
Rico. 1t is a fact that Governor Allen was
induced to return to Porto Rico on the
last occasion by President Mckinley under
the special plea that he shn,Ild bring to a
fitting conclusion the task he had assumed
of installing a complete autonomous and
self-supporting system Of government.
Therefore. it Is conjectured that upon the
governors own opinion as to the complete
ness of the work Will depend his return to
Porto Rico. Meanwhile his friends here
and the officials with whom he has had
communication declare that he has not
notified them of q fresh intention to re-
sign.
