ESSEN'S BAKERY.

Concern In the World.

Said to Be the Largest Breadmaking
Concern In the World.
The largest bakery in the world is
located in Essen, Prussia. the home Of
the great Krupp gun factory. It is q
vast building, in which seventy work
men, divided into two shifts, work
night and day. Everything is done by
machinery, says the London Post. A
screw turns increasingly a kneading
trough, into which are poured some
water and ten sacks of -four of 200
pounds each.
This machine makes about 10000
pounds Of bread each day, in the shape
Of 25,OOO small lOaves and $4,000 large
loaves, produced by 230 sacks Of -four
Of 200 pounds each. All the operations
of breadmaking are performed In this
colossal bakery. The wheat arrives
there, is cleaned, ground and brought
automatically to the kneading trough
by a series of rising and descending
pipes.
There are thirty-six double ovens,
and the workmen who watch over the
baking of the bread earn from s to
10 cents an hour. making an average
of 80 cents a day for eleven hours
on duty. They have coffee and bread
free; also the use of a bathroom, for
they are required TO keep themselves
spotlessly clean and must wash their
hands eight times a day.

VARIETIES IN CHEESES.
Hard Cheeses' Lasting QuaIities-Par-
mesan Is So Hard That Cutting
Is Practically Impossible.

The difference in cheeses is some
times confusing to those who have not
access to q large market. Edam, pine
apple. Parmesan and ROquefort are
hard cheeses. Neufchatel, cream and
cottage cheeses soft. Genuine cream
cheese is made from a rich cream
thickened by sOuring or from sweet
cream thickened rennet. Neufchatel
is a soft rennet cheese made from
cows milk either whole or skinned.
Cottage cheese is made from sour milk
without the use Of rennet. ROquefort
Is a hard rennet cheese made from the
milk Of sheep. the name being derived
from the village of ROguefOrt, in the
southeastern part of France. where the
cheese is ripened in caves or natural
caVerns. Edam is a hard Tennet
cheese produced in Holland and is
made from unskimmed cows milk.
Parmesan is an Italian cheese known
for centuries in that country as Grana,
the term referring to the granular con-
ditiOn of the cheese. 1t is so hard cut
ting Is practically impossible. and we
get it in this country grated in bot
ties. This cheese is made from skim
med milk. Pineapple cheese is said to
have originated in Litchfeld county,
Conn, and is a hard rennet cheese
made from cows milk. The flavor of
different cheeSes is given by the meth
cd Of ripening due to the action of
bacteria.

SPARE THE Old THINGS.
A Plea For the Preservation of Tokens
of Love and Reminders of
Days Gone By.

Most everything is being sacrificed
nowadays TO the spirit of practic bill
ity. Old love letters are destroyed be
cause desk room is needed. The
spreading oak that marked for dec
ades the turn of the road is sacrificed
to give room to a modern electric sign
that tells the same story The baby's
first pair of shoes, wee, dainty and soft
as they are, are thrown in the trash
pile that there may be room IN the top
drawer for the powder box.
All of this destruction Of ''auld lang
gyne' sentiment and the basis Of remi-
niscence is chuck full Of wrong. The
most interesting place in or near
Washington Is Mount Vernon. The
most magnificent square in Philadel-
phia is Independence hall The most
valuable spot in Texas is the old
Alamo at San Antonio. Such places
as these contain the story Of Ameri-
can history, and the citizen who views
and thinks while viewing-and no one
can view without thinking-beCOmes
Instantly a patriot, likewise a better
husband and a better father.
Keep the old love tokens. Don't de-
stroy the "old gray bonnets." Treas
ure the little shoes. Save youths love
letters. And we may not have as
much room, but we will have more
sweetness, and there will be more
heart in the wOrld-Wichita Beacon.

HISTORIC LOVING CUP.
It Changed Possessors Frequently, Be.
ing Owned In Turn by Goldsmith,
Garriek, Dr.. johnson and Burke.

The famous literary society Of Lon
don called the Savage club has tradi-
tional connection with Wills coffee
house and the Mermaid tavern Of ear
IL days. The reader of Mr.. WatsOn's
volume OF history and anecdote relat-
ing to the club viii come across in its
pages incidental mention of things that
recall names that are famous In our
literature. How rich in associations a
simple drinking cup may become is
shown by the following:
In 1902 there was brought to the
club a most remarkable relic Of which
the lord mayor OF London had recently
obtained possession. This was a low
ing cup holding pint OF a little more
which. as certain inscriptions testified,
was at one time the property OF Oliver
Goldsmith. On GOldsmith's death it
passed into the hands CT David Gar
rick and thence to the possession Of
one of the literary and artistic clubs
Of the day.
Then after an interval it passed into
Dr.. JOhnsOn's hands, for one Of the In
scriptions engraved on its silver rim
records that it was presented to Burke
by his friend Samuel Johnson, doctor
Of letters, as a mementO Of Johnsons
visit to Beaconsfeld, which was
Burke's home. The date Of the pres
entation was 1779, five years after the
death Of Goldsmith and five before the

BAKING A PICTURE LOVER.
A Cynical and Caustie Fling at the
English Art Patron.

A Cynical and Caustic Fling at the
English Art Patron.
The general art patron in England is
a brewer or distiller. Five and forty
is the age at which he begins to make
his taste felt in the art world. and the
cause of his collection is the following
or analogous reason. After a heavy
dinner, when the smoke cloud is blow
ing Justify, Brown says to Smith: Il
know you don't care for pictures, so
you wouldn't think that Leader was
worth Et,500. Well, I paid all that
and something more, too, at the last
academy for it." Smith, who has new
er heard of Leader, turns slowly
round on his chair, and his brain, stu
pef1ed with strong wine and tobacco,
gradually becomes aware of village
by river bank seen in black silhOu-
cite upon a sunset sky. Wine and
food have made him happily sentimen-
tai, and he remembers having seen, a
village looking very like that village
when he was paying his attentions to
the eldest Miss Jones. Yes, it was
looking like that all quite sharp and
clear on a yellow sky, and the trees
were black and still, just like those
trees. Smith determines that he. too,
shall possess a Leader. He may not
be quite as big a man as Brown. but
he has been doing pretty well lately.
There's no reason why he shouldn't
have a Leader. So irredeemabie mis-
chief has been done at Browns dinner
party. Another nve or six thousand a
year will exert its mighty influence in
the service Of bad art.-George Moore.
