THE LOT OF A zUNI BABY.
No Dowpy Pillows or silken Wraps
Lend Comfort to the In
fant's Days.

The Zuni child spends his early
days in a cradle. But a cradle in
Zuni-land does not mean down
pillows, silken cOverlets and fluffy
laces, writes Maria Brace Kimball,
in "The Children of Zuni," in st.
Nicholas; it is only a fiat board,
just the length of the baby, with a
hood like a dolls buggy top over
the head. Upon this hard bed the
baby is bound like a mummy
the coverings wound round and
round him until the little fellow
cannot move except to open his
mouth and eyes. Sometimes he is
unrOlled, and looks out into the
bare whitewashed room, blinks
at the fire burning on the hearth
and fixes his eyes earnestly on the
wolf and cougar skins that serve
as chairs and beds and carpets in
the Zuni home. BY the time he is
two or three years old he has
grown into a plump little bronze
creature, with the straightest Of
coarse black hair and the biggest
and roundest of black eyes. Ht
is now out of the cradle, and trOt;
about the house and the village
When the weather is bad he wears
a small coarse shirt, and always
necklace Of beads or turquoise.

}. II. Hipplegate.
Peruna is the remedy for catarrh. AL
most everybody knows that by hearsay
and thousands know it by experience.
Catarrh in its various forms is rapidly
becoming a national curse. An UNI
doubted remedy has been discovered by
DR.. Hartman. This remedy has been
thoroughly tested during the past forty
years. Peruna cures catarrh in all
phases and stages. There is no remedy
that can be substituted.
If you do not derive prompt and salts

WHY CRUST IS BROWN.
Heat Turns Starch in the Flour Into
Dextrine-Mid6le Of Loaf
Boiled.

Wheat will not grow AT sea level
within the tropics. Yet il is a
SuriOus fact that the further from
the poles within the temperate
zone the wheat field lies the better
the dOur it produces, says an ex-
change.
Wheat grown in the far north
has more starch and less gluten
than that raised in a warmer eli
mate, and that is the reason why
the latter is worth more as food.
Flour, like wine and tobacco,
improves by keeping-at least, for
q short period. If used at once
after being ground it does not
make good bread. 1t is at its best
Rhen about three months old.
Old -four which has begun to de-
teriOrate may yet be made into ex-
Oellent bread by mixing it half and
half with newer -four. Old -four
requires more water for mixing
into dough than new.
The ordinary temperature for
IN oven in a large bakery is 400
degrees to $50 degrees; but, in
spite of this high degree of heat,
it Is a fact that the interior OF a
loaf of bread is rather boiled than
baked.
When fresh from the oven it still
contains 30 to 40 per cent. of water.
The starch and gluten inside the
loaf are cooked by boiling. If the
temperature were sufficiently higl
to bake the loaf right through al
the starch would be turned into
dextrine.
1t is this baked starch which
gives to the crust its nutty-brOwI
color. Dextrine also gives to thu
crust its pleasant flavor.
Most people imagine that sal.
is used simply to make bread mOr'
palatable. But it also perform,
another duty. 1t makes the dougl
rise more freely. If, however, to-
much salt be used, it retards fer
mentatiOn, and makes the brea,
sad" New -four requires NOR
salt than old.
Wheat injured by wet weathe
during harvest may be much in
proved by kiln drying. But whea
that has sprouted in the field be
fore threshing a never max
good -four.

CATS HAVE VARIED LIKES.
Some Like Olives, Some Eat Oranges
and Others Are Fond Of
Unusual Foods.

81 see items in the papers some
times saying that all eats like this
or that article of diet" said one
who knows all about domestic
pets, reports the Portland (Mel
Press. Now those tales are true
and at the same time they aren't
true, because no two eats that l
ever saw liked the same kind Of
food.
"There are no animals thatvary
so much in their ways and tastes
and habits as eats. You take any
two dogs of the same breed and
their ways are pretty much alike.
But cats vary a great deal more
than people. This shows in the
things they like to eat.
"There's Tom and Nancy, those
two white Angoras over there.
They both like cooked meat and
milk, but after that they differ,
Tom goes perfectly daffy over
green peas; Nancy won't touch
peas, but she'll eat beans in any
form until she looks as though
she'd swallowed a baseball. Nan
cy likes green corn, too. Tom
won't touch it.
''Then Tve known a cat that
would eat Oranges-after you'd
peeled them-as long as you would
feed them to her. She'd turn up
her nose at any other kind of fruit,
I've heard of still another cat that
liked apples; and another, a pam.
pered pet in a rich house, makes
bananas and cream her staple diet.
There's a big row in that house il
her bananas and cream aren't
there when she gets up in the
morning.
"Tve known other cats that
were fond of cake and carrots ana
creamed potatoes and boiled
onions and cheese. In fact, there
isn't anything in the range of high
ly seasoned dishes that some ca
or other hasn't picked up as a 70
VOrite food.
II suppose that olives come
nearest to being liked by all cats
but there are some that won
touch olives. Even in the matter
{ of milk their tastes vary. One ca
wants cream and isn't at all mod
est about asking for it. One re
fuses cream and likes milk as THU
as possible. l had one big TONGA
who wouldn't touch his milk unit
it was warmed.
"All cats are supposed to g
dahy over catnip, but the rul'
, falls down even there. That bi,
black tom over in the corner wOulI
. never look at it. Catnip make
mOstof them crazy, you know, jus
