Glasgow, Edinburgh, and the Free church of Scotland, that land of dom mating pulpits and preachers, recog- nized for fifteen years the compelling might of this great religious teacher. In 1906 he followed across the Allan tic, whither many writings of spiritual power had preceded him, a call for his bodily presence from innumerable young men waiting to claim him as sort of pastor at large in the college of America and the chair of practical theology in Union Theological semin- ary. But his influence Is by no means limited to academic and scholastic cir cles. A singular beauty of dictlon, poets vision, and the rare persuasive ness of most persuasive accent, draw to him everywhere multitudes of hear CTS who listen gladly to his word -"and they that turn many to right eousness, as the stars for ever and oyor n

Guns.

Encouraged by the valuable re-
suits believed to have been obtained
by the British Admiralty in the
spectacular sinking of the old bat
tleship Hero by modem gun fire
lately. the Navy Department has
determined upon similar expert
ment, though not one to be carried
out to the same point.
The single-turreted monitor Flor
ida is to be made a target for the
big I2-inch rifles of battleship and
the experiment will take place in
the waters of Chesapeake Bay or

purpose to destroy the monitor
which was built only about ten
years ago, but the gun FIRE will be
lirected against her one turret.
Much mechanism is contained in

ei as to the effect of actual gun fire
upon this controlling machinery.

Yeast is a Plant.

Yeast is small plant which cat

microscope, says Good Health.
There are two varieties, wild and
cultivated, for these tiny plants car

larger plants can be

market must grow these plants

taken that they do not become mix.
ed with other varieties, therefore
destroying the culture.
In some laboratories where yeast
is grown two separate buildings are
kept for this purpose. These are
both carefully disinfected, and if it
is found that the yeast becomes
contaminated in one building the
culture is started anew, and the
other building previously disinfect-
ed before moving into it.
The purest culture of yeast is
probably obtained in the compress
ed yeast cakes. These can be kept
only for very short time, and then
In cool place, which renders it
inconvenient for the warmer parts
of the country. In this case, of
course, the dry yeast cakes must be
used, which, when fresh, are, per-
haps, quite as good as the COM
pressed, except that they require a
longer Zine, and should be started
in the sponge instead of the stiff
dough.
This plant, like bacteria, requires
warmth, moisture and food. The
materials out of which the bread is
made should always be warmed,
and the dough should always be
kept in warm place, The tenpera-
ture most favorable is about that of
the body, little less than 100 de-
grees.
There is always considerable
moisture in bread and plenty of
food tor the plant. The food which
it requires is sugar. This it obtains
from the wheat, there being some
sugar in the flour, and more sugar
is also formed from the starch.
As the yeast plants feed upon
sugar they break it down into Two
substances alcohol and gas
known as carbon dioxide, or car
bonic acid gas. As the gas is FORM
ed it is held BY the gluten, which is
a very elastic substance. When the
bread is put into the oven the heat
expands the tiny bubbles of gas,
causing the bread to rise, or to be
come much lighter. The alcohol
formed, being a volatile product,
passes off i'll the baking.
