OF oLpTiMe oAiNTies.
Made From Ordinary Bread Dough-
SUNDAY Pudding" Another Con-
feetion Worth While--Nut
Bread Recommended.

Bfeadcake is an old fashioned spicy
md delicious cake with an entirely
iiferent flavor from cakes raised with
baking powder. To make It take three
aeaping cupfuls Of ordinary bread
dough and to II add two cupfuls of
sugar. two eggs. two-thirds OF q cup
.ul OF soft butter and lard mixed, one
small teaspoonful each Of Glove and
cinnamon. half q nutmeg. and small
.easpoonful Of soda dissolved In
little water. Beat all together by
hand until smooth and perfectly
mixed. and then add two cupfuls or
less, according to taste, OF fruit
raisins. currants and citron. This
amount will Hll two bread pans. Let
II rise by the FIRE one hour. Bake In
moderate oven. This cake keeps
we'll.
Another old recipe is for a Sun
lay pudding" prepared from bread
Tough. Add two cupfuls Of soft bread
aougb-ordinary bread dough may be
used with the addition OF a spoonful
smooth and then add one cupful Of
sugar. one egg, little nutmeg, and
4 piece OF butter the size Of an egg.
Beat all together until perfectly
smooth and then edd one cupful of
raisins, previously boiled whole In as
little water as possible. Bake about
three-quarters of an hour In a mod
crate oven after II has risen half an
hour. When you wish to use It place
In a steamer. loosely covered, sprinkle
with water and set In the oven until
heated through. Eat with foaming
sauce. which is made by beating the
whites Of two eggs until foaming. add
ing one cupful Of sugar. beating again.
:hen adding one cupful OF scalded milk
and the Juice OF one lemon. Water
may be used instead OF milk, and the
sauce can be made yellow by using
the yolk as well as the white OF the
eggs.
Another variety for baking day Is
nut bread. appetizing and nourishing.
Unlike the foregoing recipes the ordi-
nary bread dough is not used for this.
The recipe is one cup o. sugar. one
egg. one and oneQuarter cupfuls of
milk. four cupfuls OF -four. four tea.
spoonfuls OF baking powder, one and
one-half cupfuls Of nuts; first mix su-
gar ard egg In a bowl.

baking powder to the -four. then al
ternate in adding the milk and -four
to the sugar and egg. After these
are mixed add the nuts. Walnuts are
nice for this. They can be ground
by putting them through a meat chop
per or by rolling them on the bread
board with the rolling pin.
After the ingredients are we'll
mixed. put the latter In two pans. The
pans must frst be we'll creased with
ard. Bread pans are preferable.
Let the bread rise for 20 minutes.
Then put in a moderate oven and
bake for 40 minutes
This nut bread makes a delicious
substitute for cake In the refresh
ments used at an afternoon or eve

The Demurrage Statute Is Held
To Be Unconstitutional.
Court Recesses without Action
on IntermOuntain Rate Cases.

Warrington. May 21.-The supreme
court today annulled the Interstate
commerce commissions order in the
tap line cases.
The court upheld the commerce
order. on the ground that it acted ar
bitfarily in holding that allowances
could not be granted ON freight OF in
terests owning both the lumber and the
tap lines but could be granted on
freight Of other interests shipping over
the tap lines.
Justice Day in announcing the
courts decision. said that the decision
did not. however. prevent the commits
sion from striking down divisions Of
through rates, il such division were
used to grant actual rebates. The court
held, in effect. that the mere division
was not to be regarded In and Of itself
as rebate. The decision was unani-
nous.
Trunk line railroads. in the yellow
pine districts of Missouri. Arkansas and
Texas and Louisiana had Cancelled Joint
through rates on lumber shipped over
the tap lines and the trunk lines. The
commission held that the tap lines
were not entitled to have the Joint
rates restored and that any allowances
or divisions from the trunk lines to 81
OF the tap lines were unlawful The
commission held further that where the
tap lines were owned by a lumber com
pany such an allowance was in effect
a rebate.
Since the tap line cases reached the
supreme court the commission had
ordered reconsideration Of it's orders
1t has been said that this reconsider.

As q result OF q decision today b,

rage law was annulled as unconsti.
tuttonal by the court on the ground
that the Oklahoma court had held II
applied to interstate commerce az
well as state commerce.
The court recessed until June 8
without announcing q decision in the
fntermountain rate case.
1t will render decisions on June 8
and Juno 15 and adjourn on the lat
ter date until October, unless the
docket at that time justifies differ

The court held that the liability OF
the Oceanic Steam Navigation com
pany against the $13,OOO.OOO in
claims against 1t as owner Of the tt
tanfc is limited in suits in the United
States by the American limited liza
bflity law Of 1851, to the value of the
salvage recovered and the freight and
passage money received on the Titan
les voyage. That amounts in all to
about $4,000. The decision in no
way affects suits brought against the
owner in other countries. Justice

Colonel Roosevelt's visit to the
White House will be his first since
1910, and the second since he left the
executive mansion as president. On
his former call he did not see Presi-
dent Taft. who was out Of the city.
While there are no indications that
Colonel Roosevelts visit has any 9TH
er aspect than purely scientific one,
there is great deal of undisguised
interest among all parties in congress.
Those managing the eight hours of
the colonels stay Tuesday say his
program leaves no time for politics
at which he will be present will be
abandoned.
A Political Mission.
oyster Bay, May 25.-The trip
which Colonel Roosevelt is to make
to Washington tomorrow took on new
Significance when it became known
today that the former president
would hold an important conference
with Progressive leaders there. On
his arrival at the capital Colonel
Roosevelt will go direct to the Pro-
gressive headquarters, where he ex-
pects to see all the Progressives in
congress. From them he expects to
the course of events in Washington
during the last few months. This
conference will determine in a large
measure plans to be followed In
starting the ball rolling for the fall
campaign.
Colonel Roosevelt has Eeen urged
by many of his supporters, since his
return from South America, to lose
no time in taking issue at once with
President Wilson, without waiting for
the formal opening of the campaign
He said a few days ago that he de-

as possible until after his return from
Spain. But recent events have caused
him to consider the question OF jump
ing into the fray at once.
He has already expressed briefly
his opposition to the Wilson admins
exemption act and to the proposal tc
nav $25,OO,O0O to Colombia It ii
understood he will make his severes1
attack upon the administrations for
eign policy and the operation of the
Underwood tariff law.
Republicans Stealing . March.
It has been suggested to the colone
that by remaining silent he is permit
ting the Republicans to steal a march
on the Progressives, by getting frs
into the field with the criticism Of the
wilson policies. This suggestion hal
had considerable weight with the for
mer president and it is not improb-
able that before he sails for Europe
at the end of this week. he will fire
the opening gun in what is expected te
be the hardest fight of his career.
Another possible outcome Of thu
Washington trip is a meeting betweeT

The Right Hon. James Lowther.
the speaker took an early opportunity
today Of applying balm to the sores
left by the violent incidents of ThurD-
day last. He frankly admitted that he
should not have used the expression
he did when he asked Andrew Bonar
Law, leader of the opposition. whether
he approved of the disorderly demon
stration by the unionist members Tho

give the house some information re-
garding the bill to be introduced after

tions Of the people of Ulster.

In response to the speakers p1eA,
Premier Asquith announced that the
amending bill would give effect to any
agreement which the government was
still hopeful might be reached. He
said that II. at the time Of the intro
duction Of the Irish home rule bill to
the house Of lords, no such agreement
had been reached the amending bill
would embody the substance Of the
proposals outlined by him on March
., in the hope that after a discussion
an agreement might be secured.
On March 3, Premier AsQuith told
the house Of commons that before
the bill became operative q poll would
be taken Of the parliamentary electors
OF each county Of Ulster to decide
whether those counties should be ex-
j cluded from the provision Of the Irish
home rule bill for a period Of six
years from the first meeting of the
Irish parliament. II the majority Of
the voters were In favor Of the scheme
the county would automatically be e.
cluded for the prescribed period.
