FOR AN AFTERNOON AFFAIR
Nut Bread Has Become q Favorlts
Among Hostesses Who Want
Something Different"

One cup of sugar, one egg.
One and one-Quarter cups Of milk.
Four cups OF -four.
Four teaspoonfuls OF baking pow.
der.
One and one-half cups of nuts.
First mix sugar and egg in a bowl
Measure and sieve your -four. Add
baking powder to -four. Then alter
nate In adding the milk and -four to
the sugar and egg. After these are
mixed. add the nuts. Either English
walnuts or the plain American wal
nuts can be used. The nuts can be
ground by putting them through a
meat chopper or by rolling them on
the bread board by using the roller
pin.
After all your ingredients are we'll
mixed. put the latter in two pans.
The pans must first be we'll creased
with lard Bread pans are preferable.
Let the bread rise for 20 minutes.
Then put in moderate oven to bake.
Bake for 40 minutes.
The nut bread has supplied long
felt need, for upon all sides we have
been constantly hearing the com.
plants Of people who wish to elimi.
nate such rich refreshments served at
pink teas and bridge parties.
What to give at an afternoon at.
fair. instead Of the inevitable ice
cream, has been a problem.
Nut bread, which can be used In.
stead of rich pastries, has solved the
solution. A fruit salad and nut bread
can be served, and one woman rca-
soned that this Is the same as the
salad course of dinner, which, we all
agree. is the most sensible Of all the
courses. When the bread is served
1t is cut In very thin slices and plen-
tifully buttered. A good plan Is to
butter the bread before cutting the
slices from the loaf. This Is dell.
cious served with any salad.

A woman lives in Philadelphia who
has seen three centuries; who has
been an eye witness Of the changes
they have brought; who has herself
been most thrillingly affected by them.
Her name is Mrs. Kate Whitehurst,
and her century and more of life was
most OF 1t lived as slave in the South
long years before there was a dream
OF questioning seriously the rights of
slavery to exist.
Her home is at 1887 Oxford street
with her daughter, Mrs. Caroline
Mitchell. She Is still able to move
about, although feebly, for she suf-
fered a serious nervous shock few
weeks ago, when fire broke out right
In her bedroom, and she was saved
by policemen when she was not very
far from suffocation.
She is known to be in her one hun,
dred"and fourteenth year, but she may
be somewhat older, and one estimate
gave her age as one hundred and sew.
enteen. But the recollection of her
age by daughter of her old master
in the South, based on the record in
her sales papers as slave, is that
she was born at the end of the eigh.
teenth century, and she may be the
senior by a few months of Aunt Ma
hala Ayers, whose one hundre and
fourteenth birthday celebration has
been planned as an event this year
at the Home for Aged Colored Peo-
pie. Mrs. Whitehurst's own memory
Of dates in her long life carries her
back as far as 1911, when the great
comet, from whose year the most
famous wines of Europe have been
dated, was visible and gravely af-
frighting all over the world.
Il saw the great star fall" she says,
when she refers to that overshadow-
ing event in her childhood, the one
thing which could leave an indelible
impression on the mind Of girl slave
not yet in her teens, when all the
ignorant, startled throng around her
lived in terror of the great stars fall.
She still sees herself standing in
the midst of other slaves, at night I'M
der the soft southern sky, staring up
at the awful portent and wondering,
while her elders in that doubly hap
less horde argued its consequences
of pestilence and war.

HAD A MUTUAL FEAR
Bright and Gladstone Each Sus-
pected Others Sanity.
Seemingly impossible for Either to
Understand What Else Could
Have Caused the Break In
Their LONG Friendship.

1t Is not always an easy matter Tor
a man of strong convictions and ma.
tive force Of character to see and
respect another's point Of view. Will
liam e. Gladstone and John Bright
were two of the strongest men that
England Of the last century produced,
yet an anecdote shows that these
great men were quite unable--on one
occasion at least--to see more than
one side of a question. ....
Soon after the break between Bright
and Gladstone that followed differ.
ence of opinion concerning the gov
ernments foreign policy, the artist
Holl was engaged to paint the portrait
Of Mr.. Bright. He incidentally men.
toned that he was about to paint q
portrait Of Mr.. Gladstone also.
1T must be very painful thing
for you. Mr.. Bright" he hazarded,
that after all these years you should
have found cause to sever your
friendly relations with Mr. Gladstone"
Indeed it u.s." replied Bright, with
a sigh. ITO think that after we have
trodden the same path together, shout
der to shoulder and hand In hand, we
should be forced apart in the evening
Of our lives! And BY what? BY a
bogy that is reckoning him away from
duty and sense. Do you know. Mr..
Holl. seriously fear that my dear
old friends mind has become radically
undermined"
Later, when Holl was painting
Gladstone, the subject of Bright's por-
trait came up.
"Ah!" said Gladstone. with much In
terest. "And how did you find him?
1t was a cruel blow-that after life
time of mutual esteem and Of good
work undertaken and carried through
together, we should be divided on so
clear question:! Tell me, Mr.. Holp'
and here his mouth twitched, for he
was evidently struggling with strong
emotion-"tell me, did you notice any
thing in the manner Of my old friend
that would lead you to believe that
his reason was becoming in any way
unhinged?"-A. NJ. Reynolds Life
