Some Prime Mover in one of the many New Thought Cults recently advised her disciples to "get off into silence once in a while.
 Whether they obeyed her, and with hat results I do not know.
 But
 I do know that the advice is worth considering.
 It is a. good thing to get off to our selves once in a while.
 I don't mean by this that you have tc seek some vast wilderness.
 Don't you know that you can be just as isolated in the midst of a turbulent crowd as if you were a hundred miles away from everything?
 Just plunge into associating with yourself for few days, and you'll find there are very few of us who would not be surprised If we saw ourselves as others see us.
 The reason we don't know ourselves better Is because for the most part we associate less with ourselves than with anyone else.
  car ride all by yourself?
 Just getting on and riding to the ond of the line?
 The fresh air Is good for you these beautiful golden, autumn days and the glimpses you get from the car window of the crimson topped trees and the little running streams are like a quaff of Brown october Ale.
 You are by yourself we have taken for granted, and suppose when you get nearly to the end of the car you just step off and discover that hill over there or that dimpling. dipping valley set like an emerald in the cup of two mighty lodges.
 You don't have to sprain your brain trying to get up enthusiasm over your surroundings, understand, but just sink down upon some nice, soft gray rock and let Nature unadorned-the peace fulness of her sink down into your town-weary soul, and when you get ready to leave you'll be surprised to know what delightful companion you have been for yourself and how much more refreshed you feel than if you'd taken somebody along to chatter, chat ter all the afternoon.
 This is only one suggestion out or myriads of getting off into silence effects.
 Do you recall the clever story or Mrs. Wharton in which she told us about the Professor who 'eloped with an idea?"
 He had the most satisfying time ycu could imagine.
 You might try that sort of thing too. if nothing else comes handy, only "get off into silence once in a while and take a Mental Inventory or Lile and things
 Haven't you been in some crowded oafe and recall the senseless, ceaseless chatter and chat about you and after the lunch hour was over you foiloweo numberless ones in the crowd to a Matinee? ..-. They caekle and laugh and gab Just

Family Bread

Would you kindly send me a good recipe for plain white bread, one that could follow closely and be able to make light bread with? I have had no expe- rience in bread or pie making, although 1 have always been successful with cake. I stand in fear and trembling at the thought of baking bread.
 MRS. E. A. S."
 Family Bread-Sift two quarts of flour into a bowl with half teaspoonful or salt and teaspoonful of white sugar Heat to scalding a pint Of milk with a heaping teaspoonful of butter; ada pint of boiling water and let the mixed liquids get lukewarm. Then pour into a hole made in the middle of the flour. Now stir in hard and well half cuptul of lukewarm water in which half cake of compressed yeast has been thorough ly dissolved. Work this in with wooden spoon and you will have soft dough: Turn out upon a kneading board ana knead faithfully for 10 minutes pefore you set 1t to rise in a bowl with per forated cover, in warm corner.
 In six hours it should be ready to make into loaves. Divide into three equal parts and knead each well for five minutes, un- til the dough rebounds from blow with the fist and almost instantly regains it's former size and shape. Put into well greased pans, cover with a clean cloth, and let them rise for another hour
 Bake covered, until the loaves have risen to double the original bulk. Then brown.
 This Is the simplest way of making good. sweet, wholesome bread that have ever tried. .I have taught inexperienced cooks to turn out-plump, delicious loaves after two attempts-sometimes at the first experiment-by following these directions exactly.
 You must have the best family four and if is well in damp weather to sift it half an hour before mixing the bread and set it near the fire to dry out thor oughly. Much poor bread owes it's evil quality to damp flour that never becomes elastic.
 You may dismiss fear and trembling" if you will practice the few and plain rules here set down.

Good Corned Beef

When I was young they used to dish Eup such good corned beef. It had a bright
 red color and fine flavor, and the fat
 was as good as the lean. Nowadays it
 seems impossible, at least in this part of the country, to get good corned beef at the meat markets. When cooked 1t has a muddy color and the flavor. is
 wretched. You would greatly oblige & regular reader of your department if you
 will tell how to prepare corned beef in
 small quantities at home. and how to cook it to get the best results. in the old fashioned way. W. 5. NJ
 I sympatilize most heartily and sadly with your lament over the disappearance from market and from table of such corned beef "as mother used' to set before our gloating eyes and watering mouths. One reason of the decadence of that you describe so feelingly that my heart acres with yours is that in these degenerate days the butchers corn only inferior icuts of the better portion pe aeFH far
