Model of Abdominal Supporter.

| am sending with this @ tiny model of an abdominal supporter. l made the original for member of my family. with the help of our doctor. It can be made so easily that almost any one can afford it. thought you could pass 1t on to some the Cornerites. It Is more trouble to make than may at first appear, as it has to be fitted carefully. The belt l send is for man. but few slight alterations would make it suitable for woman. The maker should not be discouraged if the belt does not seem to fit at first. but should just keep on trying, as the comfort attained will amply compensate for the effort.
 MRS. w. NJ. S.
 The little model lies before me as I write. so carefully fashioned that it must have required much time and pains to make it, and appreciate the kindly spirit that prompted the deed and also the letter of explanation which accompanied it. I hold both to be sent to any one who will write for them. Let me express my hope that the recipient will hold them in trust. so to speak. and be ready to pass them on to some one else who may be helped by them. While the pattern is only mina- ture, no one accustomed to sewing should. have any real difficulty in making larger supporter by the use of the model and the clear directions which accompanied 1t.

Good Recipe for Bread.

Will you please send me good recipe for making bread? made my first batch today. and while it was not failure, 1t was not what I want. need every de- tail in the making, as never made bread of any kind before. and I would like to use yeast cake for it. wish more on this subject because I feel that good bread is a meal within itself. Please tell me how hot the oven should be to start with MRS. w. D. O'B.''
 Bread recipes have been given SO often on this page. both by myself and by con
 tributors. that I rather grudge the space required for the repetition of the direc tions. But cannot turn deaf ear to this appeal. and so give the following outline. which Is one of the simplest meth ods I know and also one of the best. Sift two quarts of flour into bowl with half a teaspoon of salt and one teaspoon of white sugar. Heat a pint of milk almost. but not quite, to scalddng. with heaping teaspoon of butter; put with this pint of boiling water and set aside until the mixture becomes lukewarm. Make hole in the slfted flour. pour in the tepid mix ture. to which has been added half a yeast cake QlSSoAFeu III udik A cup oi warm water until it is smooth, Work with a spoon to soft dough. then turn out upon a fioured bread board and knead hard and steadily for ten minutes. Set 1t then to rise in bread bowl with perforated cover and put this in warm corner of the kitchen. The dough should rise for six hours. or until twice its origi- nal bulk. Divide the dough then into three parts, work each on the bread board for five minutes. make into loaves. and put in the well greased pans, throwing a cloth over the dough to protectit from the dust. It should then stand for an hour to rise before baking. The oven must be of even temperature and the stove replenished with fuel, 50 that you may not have to put in mde while the bread Is baking. Test the heat of the oven by setting pan with a little flour at the back of the oven before you put in the bread; If 1t colors lightly in five or six minutes the oven is ready for bak- ing. Do not open the door for fifteen minutes after the bread is in and then only cautiously. If the tops of the loaves have begun to brown lay . sheet of un- printed paper over them and leave this

spoon of other fat, like lard or suet, and cream well. Put in then the milk and soda. three cups of twice sifted flour to which has been added half a teaspoon of baking powder, one tablespoon of coco. half teaspoon each of cinnamon, nut meg and allspice, then last of all pour in the raisins and water and stir well. Bake slowly. This makes either one large cake or two small ones and it keeps nicely. M F. H.
