This is just the time OF year that
we are tempted to so into the
kitchen and do some extra bak-
ing-but there are so many things
to be done-gifts to make and
Christmas shopping-we think we
cannot possibly spare the time.
Most of us overlook the fact that
several kinds of bread can be made
with little additional time or trou-
BILE. while we are making the plain
white bread The utensils and ma
terials are all out. and we are lin
the humor" for it.
Three or four delicious breads
can be made-thc nut OF raisin
bread can be made 10 take the
place of cake, the rolled oats bread
is nutritious. and If pure leaf lard
is used for the shortening you may
be sure the breads will keep moist
for at least week. You will have
a splendid variety Of bread to serve
your family. and the white bread
will last longer. For both qualitys
and fiavOr's sake, be particular to
use a strictly pure leaf lard Can
excellent quality is advertised in
the columns of this paper from
time to time.)
Rolled Oats Bread.
Scald one cup of Quaker Oats in
one pint of boiling water and let
stand on the back Of stove for one
hour. Add one level tablespoon of
pure leaf lard and put aside 10 cool.

Striking or colliding with a buggy
in which j. r. Duncan, of a cold stor-

torcycle driven by Marcellus Cook, a
negro, who had two of his little boys
on the luggage seat, caused much trou-
bic and endangered the safety of all
in the accident As it was, no one was
hurt but both vehicles were damaged
TO some extent. Cook, charged with
fast and reckless operation of the ma
chine, was fined $40 and costs in the

The buggy was going west on
Chase street Wednesday evening at
$50 o'clock when the motorcycle, GO

accident was nothing of consequence,
and told the court that he grabbed the
shaft and would have gotten out of the

of the buggy caught his machine. The

was stated, was quite beyond the linn
