The yeast employed by the ancients
in making bread was probably of the
same kind as the ISraelites of the days
of the great Pharaoh the OppreSSor
used. calling it heaven" This was
what is known nowadays as wild
yeast. its germs or spores being afloat
evCryWhore in the air.
\ bit Of dough was preserved out of
each batch prepared for the ovens. and
when this WAS added to the next
dough the yeast contained in it quick
~ spread through the whole, only a lit
tie being required to heaven the whole
lump" But when the people of Israel
were wandering in the wilderness they
did not always have yeast handy. and
so were obliged TO eat unleavened
bread.
The best examples of old Roman
bread have been found at Pompeii. a
town that was destroyed by an erup-
tiOn Of VCSuviuS in the year 80 A. ID.
Forty-eight loayeS were dug out of one
OakcShop. These SpecimentS markedly
reSembled those found in the Egyptian
= tombS and were originally composed Of
ground barley.
The ancient cliff dwelers Of the
Southwest raised Indian corn and
made their bread of it. Once in a
while a loaf Of it is discovered in one
OF their deserted houses. and specula-
ton is naturally INDUCED as to the
degree Of IFS antiquity. Perhaps it is
800 Or 500 years Old. In that extreme

Bushmen Dwell in Nests.

Several travellers who have return
ed from the heart Of Africa and the
AustraIasian continent tell wonderful
stories Of nest-building people who in
habit the wilds Of those countries.
The bushmen of Australia are, per
haps, the lowest order Of men known.
They are so primitive that they do not
know enough to build even the sim
rIest form OF hut for shelter. The
nearest they can approach to it is to
gather a lot Of twigs and grass and,
taking them into a thicket or jungle.
build u nest for q home.
The nest is usually built large
enough for the family, and if the lat
ter is very numerous then the nests
are of large size. Sometimes the toli-
age above will form Il natural cover
ing, but there is never any attempt ut
constructing Il protection from storms.
