LauGs Hoine-Baked Loaf.

In Farm and Fireside, Jessie V. x
Burchard writes an article entitled
Breads Made With Yeast" III which
she gives number of recipes. Fol-
lowing is an extract from her general
comment:
In these days of bakeries on every
corner in town, and travelling bread
wagons through the country, the fine
art Of breadmaking is degenerating. 1t
is too much trouble to mix and knead
and bake the beautiful brown loaves,
the spicy buns, the tempting rolls. The
best bakers bread is far inferior to
the homemade. product, and / rejoice
that breadmaking, as well as stocking
darning, is being taught in more pub
lie schools each year.
The bread-mixer makes the process
SO easy and simple that almost any
one can succeed in the first attempt"

Suns First Visit in Days.

Look, mister! What's that?" ex-
claimed caddy to solitary golf
player on the links, relates the Indian
apolis News.
The player, who was addressing his
ball, knowing that the caddy must
have had good excuse for violating
an infexible rule of the links by
speaking when a player is preparing
to drive, looked up and saw a huge,
fiery bali, dimly poised, in the south
west
"Oh, it's the sun, can see it now, -
said the caddy, as a cloud of mist
rolled away, ct was just streak of
red when | first saw it"
The sight was really phenomenal,
for all the sky seemed to be clouded
except one small place that had been
penetrated by the suns rays Almost
as the caddy spoke the veil of mist
shut out the ball of fire, and the suns
first visit in days had ended.
