HOME BREADBAK :
MURDER, BAKER SAYS
Housewives Produce Soggy
Article; Ruins Stomach.

That the modern housewife who at
tempts to bake her own bread produces a
soggy article and is committing murder
in allowing it to be eaten, was the state
ment made by Paul Schulze, of Chicago.
Master Bakers.
This country is full of housewives who
are proud of their cooking and who think
they are doing their duty by baking at
home" Mr.. Schulze said. The long-suf-
fering stomachs of their families continue
to pay the penalty of this mistaken sense
of duty.
The American housewife-the Ameri-
can mother of to-day-is an earnest and
sensible individual, but very set in her
ways She is still influenced by the
working methods adopted in her girl
hood. The kitchen fire, however, is still
inadequate.
"One thing which we bakers in the
larger cities see most plainly to-day is
the absolute necessity of educating the
housewife to quit baking at home. Let
us come forward. Let US show these
women that home baking is wrong. Let
US show them the overwhelming benefits
of buying of bread baked in a sanitary
bakery"
Finds Bread Unbaked Dough.
Mr. Schulze told of a Chicago woman
who had built up a business selling
health bread" the home product. She
brought him a loaf and wanted to sell
the formula.
Il cut into the loaf" said Mr.. Schulze.
Il saw that the center was unbaked
dough. l have been wondering since
what effect that woman's health bread
h. f,, Cho
vas unquestionably committing murder"
The modern baking machinery has
taken the place of the old negro mann
my"-the cook-in most Southern homes,
and corn bread and biscuits have lost
sher prestige of the early days.

He crushed her to him once. as

LITTLE BOW LEGS TELL A PITIFUL
STORY OF TOO MANY CHILDREN
By FRANCES L. GARsIDE.

The boy was thrust out of his mothers
arms by the baby that came too soon
and there was no one to carry him. He
couldn't remain in one place all day; if
he had, his little limbs would have failed
to develop, so he pulled himself up on
his little feet and began to walk, and
there was no one to see the danger of
his weak little legs supporting a weight
too heavy; there was no one to restrain
him, for the reason that his mother bore
another baby in her arms.
She was doing her best to avert the
doom hanging over this great nation and
which can only be averted by the women
having babies So said the great man,
who used his prominence as a mega
phone. --
Another baby comes, and the Oldest
bow legs has company in his barrel
hoop means of locomotion in the sec
ond child, and sometimes the oldest
child is given the care of baby almost
as large as he is, and his legs bow more
and his back bends in the demands
made upon him by the parents, who
seek to ward off the doom that threat
ems this country.
The little girls who play in the streets
with little sisters and brothers hanging
to their skirts, and who carry heavy
