The testimony Of the girl was so

ment for Canary

An odd story OF bird friendship,
Vouched for as true, was told by a
friend the other day:
MY sister" said the friend. "has a
canary. Every day, when the weather
is fine, she puts its cage out on the
porch where IL can enjoy the sunlight
and the air. She has kept this up for
so many months, putting the cage al.
ways in the same place, that the
canary has made friends with tn.
sparrows who live near by.
I'm nesting time, myself have
seen the canary tear bits of paper
from the floor OF its house and push
them out to the sparrows, who use
them In building their nests. When
the winter is at It's height, and food
Is scarce, I have seen the sparrows
hop Familiarity up on the outside of
the canary's cage, and help themselves
from Its seed cups. In return they bring
bits OF string and horsehair which
they have gathered, and push them
through the wire bars to the canary.
These are quite useless to the little
yellow singer, but It seems to an.
preciate the spirit in which they are

nized that some white flour so COM
monty used is so lacking in nutriment
that they have forbidden any more to
be turned out at the mills. Be care
tul that you do not buy any of the old
stock.
Then, too, If you are just learning
TO Keep house, you may not know that
there is a bread -four and a some
what more starchy and less glutinous
pastry flour. Be sure to buy the
bread flour. You may distinguish it
both by its slightly yellowish appear
ance, and by its granular, rather than
powdery feel. Then, too, it does not
cake when squeezed in the hand, as
does the pastry -four.
Many excellent compressed yeasts
can now be had, and it is perhaps not
worth while for a woman who can get
1t fresh to make her own. You will
require one pint of scalded milk, one
tablespoonful of sugar, one teaspoon
hi of salt, one-third cake of CON-
pressed yeast, and, OF course, enough
-four to make a stiff dough. Be sure
to measure the milk after IL has been
scalded
Put the sugar salt and scalded
milk into large mixing bowl or
bread pan, stir un:il the sugar Is dis
solved and The milk lukewarm; then
add the yeast which has previously
been softencd IN little water Final
ly, stir in the -four until you have q
doughg stiff enough to fold easily.
Now mold it for a minute or two to
give it shape. as well as to more thor
oughly mix the ingredients, and then
set it to rise in room OF 70 degrees
Fahrenheit. Cover it closely with an
old tablccloth, that the top may not
dry out, and leave it in peace for
eight hours. Most people like to put
their bread to rise over night, mixing
it late in the evening and baking 1t
the first thing in the morning. Or one
can mix it In The morning and bake 1t
just before diner.
II it has not risen sufficiently in the
allotted time 1t is sign that the room
was not warm enough during some
portion Of the time of rising. On the
other hand, too warm a room or too
long a period of rising will sour the
dough. The proper amount of rise Is
just double the original bulk.
Before baking, knead the dough for
five minutes OH bread board, to dis
tribute the large bubbles and so make
the bread finer grained. Mixing
knives are now mere generally used
than ones fists FOR this operation.
Lastly, shape 1t into a loaf by doubling
the edges under again and again until
you have smooth. oblong mound,
place it in an oiled baking pan, let 1t
rise quickly in warm place until 1t
again doubles itself, and bake in an
oven which is hot at first, but which
gradually decreases In temperature,
for all hour and a quarter.
The recipe 7 have given Is for one
very large loaf. 1t is easy enough to
double or treble it If you want to
bake more at one time.
The kneading should be done very
gently. If you knead it too hard, the
bread will be heavy.-Boston Herald.
