The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan's
paper, will be especially inter-
esting and instructive during the
present session of congress. The
action of this congress will prob
ably determine the issues upon
which the next presidetial cam
paign will be fought. The Com
moner proposes to carry on
campaign of education and or
ganization to the end that demo-
cratic principles may triumph.
In addition to the editorial de-
partment, which receives Mr..

Commoner contains Current
Topic department, wherein a
partisan discussion OF topics
of timely interest and other valu-
able information will be found.
The Home Department is con-
Quoted by a experienced woman

of household topics and who is
an authority on the art of cook

The department alone is worth

all interesting and ably conduct
ed, among which is a summary

Materials For Bread.

Some Of the many materials used
for bread have been brought to mo-
tice by Paul Combes, says the Phila-
delphia Ledger. Beans, peas and
other leguminous seeds, as well as
maize and other vegetable sub
stances, require mixing with wheat
or rye, or the bread will be soggy
and indigestible. Mashed potatoes
with wheat or maize flour give pala-
table bread, which, however, attracts
moisture. Rice -four makes fine yell
low bread, agreeable both to sight
and taste, and the chestnut bread
that forms the chief food of the
Corsican mountaineers is healthful,
agreeable, digestible and keeps ff-
teen days or longer. Bread has been
made from acorhs. Moses, dried
and powdered, are still esteemed for
bread by Norwegians. The roots Of
bryonia, eolchicum, iris, serpentaria,
mandragora and hellebore and the
leaves of!aconite are. among the 9TH
er substances Of which bread has
been madein time Of great need.
