Freshly made bread is more indi-
gestible than stale bread because it is
more moist and becomes more solid
in the mouth; hence more impenetra-
bic TO the saliva and the gastric juices.
For the same reason bread crust is
more digestible than what is beneath
it, being drier Bread may be unfit
for use from being made of adulterat-
ed or too old -four, by turning sour or
developing 9 bitter taste from the
yeast, from getting moldy and from
insufficient fermentation in the rising
process, which leaves it too heavy for
the digestive fluids to act we'll upon.

CATS SUCKING BREATH.
An Old wfve~' Fable That uns served
Good Purpose.

| An Old Wives Fable That Hns Served
Good Purpose.
Can cat really suck the breath of a
| child?
| We have always heard that ii could
Away back in early childhood we dis
tinctly remember frequent warnings
TO look out for the cat. Do not allow
the cat to get into bed with you, espe'
| cially to get into bed with the baby, az
1t is liable to suck the baby's breath,
which would cause the baby to die.
Is there any foundation for such a
notion as this? We never could discov-
er any real meaning to the belief that
cat can suck the breath of child.
Indeed the sentence is totally unintel-
ligible.
What is meant by sucking the breath !:
1t may be true that the cat, attracted
by the breath of child who had re-
Gently been nursing, might attempt to
interfere in some manner with the
chlld's mouth. In young cats the i'm
pulse to nurse might be excited by the
smell of the child's breath 1t is bare
ly possible that the cat might be seized
with desire to bite or to devour the
child's lips or tongue, lured on by the
smell of milk. We are not in posi-
ton to deny these possibilities. Maybe
they are true.
But not any of these suppositions fur
nish basis for the statement that the
cat is liable to suck the child's breath
We have always heard this statement
with a shudder of horror. 1t seems to
convey some weird, horrible tragedy
that can hardly be imagined. But it is
Il mere fancy, the origin of which is
hard to explain.
Yet we would advise mothers to be
careful about leaving the infant with
cat. We do not favor the idea of
cats sleeping with children, nor do we
favor the practice of children playing
with cats, handling them, hopping
them around the floor, fondling them,
dressing them up as dolls 1t is not
good for the cat; it is not good for the
child. Neither cats nor dogs ought to
be treated in this manner. They are
al! right in their place. but they are
not fit for playthings.
III the superstition that a cat can
suck child's breath has operated as
preventive to mothers allowing their
children to play with cats, it has served
very good purpose, but such childish
notions are hardly compatible with ma
ture reflection. 1t is one of the old
wives fables which may have served
a good purpose, but it is too ridiculous
for repetition. There are other and
better reasons why the cat and baby
should not be left together than the
vague, unintelligible fear that the cat
wiz suck the child's breath.-Medical
Talk.

POLITICAL GOSSIP.

Information comes from Newton to
the effect that Senator Maytag. declin-
ed to indicate that he would not sup
port Governor Cummins for member
of the national committee on resolu-
lions, on account of his views on Cana
dian reciprocity. and for that reason
the delegation was not instructed for
him.
His address to the county convention
as it's temporary chairman, touched in
part on the tariff question and was
very satisfactory all around, it is said,
but it also is reported that when the
question was asked of him if he would
vote for the governor for member OF
the platform committee from Iowa in
the national convention, he declined to
say.
The Colfax delegation was anxious
to get away from the convention and
to get home on the 5 o'clock train
Therefore, the motion to adjourn car
ried, although after it was made and
properly in order for decision by the
convention the attention of the dele
gates was called to the fact that the
interests of Senator Maytag as a can
didate for district delegate had not
been considered or protected.
The delegation to the convention was
selected by a committee ofsthe conven-
ton. The convention plainly was in
the hands of the stand patters, for
Postmaster McCord was chairman OF
the committee on resolutions, which
declined to bring in a report recon-
mending a resolution instructlng for
