Sometimes 1t will be that she has
found herself too weak for service or
that Illness at home detains her. What
ever IT may be, the plea is never con-
tested, but accepted as final and new

weeks have passed, very likely after
taking a fresh place, the old servant
will turn up one day, express her

Notwithstanding their differences Of
opinion, Mrs. Stanton and Greeley
were personally friendly until the New
York constitutional convention Of 1868.
\ woman suffrage clause was strenu-
ously pressed upon that body and as
vigorously opposed by Mr.. Greeley.
One day after the Tribune editor had
made some particularly rasping re-
marks upon the subject, George Will

present petition in favor of the wom-
an suffrage amendment signed by Mrs.

cribed the appearance OF the memorial
at that moment to Mrs. Stanton.
"Why did you not put my wife's
maiden name on that petition and call
her Mary Cheney Greeley" he de-
manded the next time they met
Because" said Mrs. Stanton, Il
wanted all the world TO know that
Horace Greeleys wife protested against
her husbands report on the suffrage
amendment"
"All right" retorted the editor. Here
after you shall always be spoken Of in

death, although the name of Elizabeth

Of thousands who could not identify

HEAT IN THE OVEN.
How the Bakers Determine IL by the
Mere Touch of the Hand.

Mere Touch OF the Hand.
Bakers have a curious way Of tell
Ing Just what the temperature OF the
oven Is" said baker who has been in
the business for more than quarter
Of century, "and they can tell, too,
with almost marvellous accuracy. You
take a man who is an expert In the
business, and he can tell what the tenn
perature OF the oven is by simply
touching the handle Of the oven door.
In nine cases out Of ten he will not
miss IL 20 the fraction of a degree.
Bakers have other ways, OF course, OF
testing the heat Of the oven For in
stance, when baking bread they some
times throw piece of white paper in
TO the oven, and If II turns brown the
oven Is at the proper temperature, or,
when baking other things, they will
throw little cornmeal -four into the
oven I'm order TO test the heat. But
the bakers fingers are the best gauge,
and when you come TO think OF the diff
ferent temperatures required In bak-
ing different things it is no small
achievement TO even approximate the
heat of the oven by touching the han
die OF the oven door.
Bakers figure that during the rising
time OF a loaf OF bread, after II has
been placed IN the oven, Il ought TO be
in temperature Of 10 degrees +. Dur
ing the baking process, In order TO cook
the starch, expand the carbonic acid
gas, mir and steam and drive off the al
cohol, the inside Of tie loaf must reg.
lister at least 220 degrees In baking
rolls, buns. scones, tea biscuits, drop
cakes, fancy cakes, New York cakes,
mullins, pun cakes and things OF that
sort the oven must show heat OF 45O
degrees or higher. When the oven Is
at 400 degrees, IL is tit for cream puffs,
sugar cakes, queen cakes, rock cakes,
| jumbles, lady ingers, rough and ready
and jelly rolls. At $50 degrees wine
cakes. cup cakes, ginger nuts and
snaps, pies. gingerbread. spice cakes,
such as raisin, currant, cltron, pound,
bride and so on, may be baked. 1t
requires still lower temperature to
bake wedding cakes, kisses, anise drops
and things IN this class But, what
ever temperature the old baker wants,
he can tell when he has II by simply
