speech at Atlantic City is a genuine
expression of his spirit He was

place by lawlessness and corruption

mean things about Mr. Bryan, and

Senate of Samos

The Second Chamber of Samos must
be about the smallest in the world
Four persons, representing the four
districts of the island, constitute the
Samian senate. They are chosen by
the prince from list of eight annual
ly submitted by the National assem-
bly,, and their qualifications are 80
years of age and ability to read and
write.
A debate in the Samian senate can
not be a very tremendous affair But
we recall that it was to Samians over
1000 years ago that the Spartans gave
a lesson against verDosity. Having
heard the eloquent tale Of the Samian
exiIes, they said: I'VE have forgot
ten the first part of your speech, and
do not understand the rest" Then
the Samians brought an empty wallet
and said, Our wallet has no meal in
it, your wallet is superfiuous," said
the Spartans, meaning that either the
actual wallet or the word was unnec-
essary.

POOR CREAM MEANSPoOR BUTTER
It is Important That the SKINNED

The question of making good butter
is question of knowing how to care
for cream.
It is simple thing to produce a good
grade of cream. The first important
thing is to keep it cool. This is be
cause cream is a most excellent food
for bacteria, and they multiply very
rapidly If the temperature Is above 20
degrees. Some of the bacteria pro-
duce an acid in the cream which less

Many cellars and caves are not cool;

sion of GOODNESS If the cream is kept
in a well, spring or tank of cold water
it would be much better, according to

GREATEST POWER IN NATURE
Force of Waves Of the Ocean Is Some
thing That Is Almost Beyond
Common Belief.

The average inland American who
has never seen the ocean has no idea
of the force Of it's waves. He reads
about the storm, of boats being car
ried away and buIwarks stove. But
mer blows that may be struck by mere
water.
A recent storm on the British coast
received the official designation of a
storm of extreme force" A picture
taken in Hastings harbor shows the
conclusions with which the waves
struck the sea wall, sending spray,
apparently higher than the buildings
along the street. Blocks of concrete
and iron railing were torn from the
new parade extension at Caroline
place and tossed back into the road
way as if they had been bits of plank.
Timber work that had withstood the
stress of years was torn apart and
carried away. Easements were food
ed along all the seward face of the
town
Such storm when it sweeps over
a ship will sometimes carry away
everything on deck. Deck houses are
often smashed and the life boats are
often stove in and ruined
Various attempts have been made to
devise motors to develop power from
the force of the wares. The amount
of energy wasted through their lack of
success is beyond estimate. If the
power of the sea could be used it
would drive machinery for an unIim-
tied number of plants.

handle. In order to get as good light
bread from the straight flour as from
the patent she has to work harder
with the dough and as she has more
than enough to do already she does not
like that flour. 1t is different with the
baker. He has his machines run by
powerful engines.
The housewife uses her flour for a
variety of purposes. She, as a rule,
does not have a convenient place to
store more than one kind of wheat
flour. The flour she finds easiest for
bread she also uses for her pastry
work and cooking in general, and here
the patent grade suits her best. For
the same reason that it is easier to
handle in the bread dough, il, is easier
to handle in the cake batter Besides
it espOnds better to the action of the
soda and baking powder Many house
wives have found that flour sold as
pastry flour is the best for all kinds
of pastry.

be divided into two large classes, the

or bread made with yeast. The soft
wheats make flour best suited for MAX
ing hot breads or biscuits and all kinds
of pastry. This does not mean that
light bread cannot be made from soft
wheat flour and that hard wheat flour
cannot be used for pastry House
wives in the West and Northwest. who
use flour ground in the local mill, use
hard wheat flour in all their cooking.

pounds of wheat the miller makes one
hundred pounds of flour. Seventy-f1ve
pounds of this viii be good enough to
class as patent. Twenty pounds, or
the next best, will be classed as clear,
and the last five pounds will be cIassed
as low grade If the seventy-five
pounds of patent and twenty pounds
of clear are mixed together it will
make a straight flour Besides the
flour there will be about thirty-seven
pounds of feed, called bran and shorts.
Three pounds will be lost as dust and
evaporation of moisture
The number of pounds put in the
patent varies with the different mus
and market conditions. Some millers
will, out Of these hundred pounds OF
flour, put eighty-five pounds in the
patent; others will put only sixty-five.
1t is evident that the less number of
pounds put in the patent, the better
the grade, both of the patent and of
the clear, provided the quality of wheat
and the milling are the same. The
difference in practice has led to the
classification of patent flours into the
long patent and the short patent The
latter being IS per cent, or below and
the former above IS per cent. Some
times the term patent is not true to
name. There are flours on the mar
ket which are called 95 per cent pat
ent. These should be called straight,
as they are the same as those nours.
1t is unfortunate that the term patent
is not restricted to the class Of flour
for which it was originally designed.

Story of Suffering and Sorrow
of Two Lovers in Play.

Arthur Langdon had gone into the
theater quite accidentally; he had
been dining with a friend who was
suddenly called away, and, passing
homeward to his lodgings on Forty
third street, he had stopped and found
himself gazing with passing interest
at the poster representing Miriam
Grey in THE Looking-Glass." Under

bearing the words Opening night
Langdon looked at the picture with
increasing anger and disdain- He i'm

Torrance began, and Langdon, sitting
in his seat, prepared to satiate his
chagrin and contempt.
He had devoted five years of his
life to play writing, and every effort
had come back to him with the barest
formality of a reply. So he had
abandoned that field to reap a fair
success as a story writer. But the
failure of his earlier efforts had en-
Uttered him against those whose
struggles had been rewarded.
Yet when Miriam Grey came on and
captivated the attention Of the au-

gradually began to make it's way into
the hearts of the audience; when sObs
