doubt be even more enthusiastic than
even little Susie Ebert.
You can always be thankful that
you are better off than some one else,
because you can always find someone
who is worse off than you are" This
is good philosophy for Thanksgiving,
and for every day in the year. If it
We're followed by everyone there
would be fewer pessimists. The trou-
bic is that too many compare them
selves with people who are in better
circumstances. 1t is easy for all to
find these, but it is Just as easy if we
look in the right direction, to find
those who are worse off than we are"

LEAvEAED BREAD
Has Been Mans Constant Mainstoy
From rNAmo Immcmorial


Some writer has said that The firstmiller
emerging from his savage state, with no
thought save hunger, pluc!Sed the wheat
from the stock, and, using his teeth for mill
stones, ground the first grist for customer
who would not be denied-his stomach"
Thus gaining experience by test in the food
line, it would be only natural for this miller
to lay up quantity of grain against an hour
ofneed. Just when he commenced grinding
his wheat in the rude stone mortar and
moistening the flour preparatory to baking
it i'll the ashes of his camp fire, and Just
when it was found that an old piece of dough
in fresh batch made it better or "leavened'
it, is beyond the reach of historians. Ger
tain it is that though the principle was the
same thousands of years ago as it is to-day.
it has remained for the makers of Yeast
Foam to supply a yeast with all the true
leavening powers mi IS the properties that
produce sour, "runny" or soggy bread. This
is the yeast that took the first grand prize
at the st. Louis Exposition, and revolutions
ICES the bread making in every home where
it is used because much better bread can b.
made with it from any flour.
Yeast Foam is purely vegetable, being
made of the best malt, corn, hor and other
healthful ingredients. The factory is also
the cleanest and best equipped in the world.
This yeast is the only kind that preserves
in the bread all the delicious flavor and
nutritive value of the wheat The bread
made with it is always sweet and wholesome
and stays moist until used. Forty loaves of
bread can be made from one 30 package.
The makers of Yeast Foam are giving out
new book caliea Good Bread How to
Make It," This little book, invaluable in
its way, has twenty-six illustrations in colors,
and tells how to make all kinds of bread,
biscuits, buns and rolls, as well as contain.
ing other recipes which will be found in
valuable in the home. The way of prepar-
ing the different recipes is very clear and
comprehensive. The book will be sent free
to any one sending their name and address,
with request for same, to the Northwestern
Yeast Company, Chicago, Ill. Every wo-
man who bakes should secure copy.
