Mother Still
Bakes Bread

The word lady" traced to its
Anglo-Saxon derivation, means "a
kn.ader of bread" and the o75 women
WHO baked 975 loaves in a prize conf
pc tition at Philadelphia gave literal
illustration of what used to be the
paramount distinction of the house
wife never too proud to, cook. And
the first prize for the downtown dis
tict went to Mrs. Robert Bird, at
1880 South Rittenhouse square, in a
region where people are supposed to
lie able to send to the bakeshop round
she corner when company comes
without breaking into the baby's
bank.
To bake loaf OF bread properly is
a triumph of culinary science. The
finished product placed on the table
was a thing taken for granted till
hotels began to charge for it, and few
who devoured it--though the chief
morning prayer OF the race begins
with a request for it--thought any
thing of the labor involved in its con-
coction. As Giotto proved himself a
capable architect by one turn of the
wrist that made a freehand circle,
and as carpenter shows that he
knows the tools OF his trade and the
way to use them by constructing a
square-cornered box, so good cook
is known by the bread she makes.
The human digestion cannot lean up
on staff Of sour dough. The Jap
anese fought the Russians on rice, the
Serbs barred the way for long time
to the Germans on bread merely. II
the armies Of peace, as we'll as those
Of war, must fight upon the stomach,
good bread is of fundamental dietetic
concern. ard those who can make it
are valuable servants OF mankind,
even though they sit on cushion
and sew fine seam" ordinarily, in
stead Of dabbling amid hot suds in the
Kitchen Philadelphia Ledger.

By ALAN RALEIGH.

If the very instant you set eyes on
him you feel some relief of your
symptoms, some slight return of con-
fidence, some faint desire to go on
living, that is the doctor for your
money.
If you feel worse, get rid Of him
at the first opportunity-at once, If
you possess the courage TODD so. He
will never do you any good.
This is no mere fancy, but sound
scientific reasoning. The best doctor
for you is the one who makes you
feel better when you see him, not the
one who is crammed to the brim with
wisdom.
There is an affinity of the mind
and an affinity of the heart; will
not add an affinity of the soul, for
that is an even more subtle and deli
cate matter, and beyond the scope
Of this article.
There is also a repulsion Of the
mind and Of the heart.
The influence of mind over matter
is a truism--almost a platitude-but
how it acts in this way is not easily
understand. Yet act it does. Let me
cite an instance.
Someone you love is separated from
you, i'll perhaps, and there is no news;
you worry and you are anxious; you
cannot sleep; your appetite is lost;
you cannot fix your mind on your
work; you lose all interest and pleas
ure in life, and you walk about with
Ilaggard steps and careworn face. Sud-
denly you get a wire, "Cheer up.
Ais we'll. Love-" or something to
that effect, and in an instant, as il by
magic, all is changed.
You could shout for Joy; your steps
trip and spring; you are eager for
work or play; your happiness infects
those around. you,
Now, If doctor were to examine
the action Of your vital organs before
and after the good news had been re-
ceived, he would find that the action
OF every single organ had been i'm
proved and strengthened.
Your brain is more active, your

heart beats more vigorously and more
steadily, the blood cireulates more
easily, the eye is clearer, the skin
acts better and the muscles are more
contracted.
You can look the world in the
face with a serene and happy conf
denee-all through half dozen
words on a sheet of paper.
And in this case the person who eff
fects the change is at remote dis
lance. What greater changes may
we not expect when eye speaks to
eye and heart to heart, when the aura
that surrounds another human be-
ing is in close and actual contact
with you.
In that way lies the success of the
true physician, the soothing pres
ence, the healing touch, he who exer-
cises in way most appropriate to
your symptoms some degree of TN
conscious and unavowed hypnotic
suggestion.
No one whose personality is hostile
to you will ever exercise this influ-
ence. There are some doctors you
know-not the one you will call in,
of course-towards whom you have
the feeling that, clever though they
may be, you would actually feel
worse if they came into the sick
room. Shun all such as you would
the plague.
There is the doctor who regards
you with a grave and anxious face
and says, in an almost sepulchral
voice: MY dear sir, you have only
just called me in time" as if to claim
the personal credit OF snatching you
from the jaws of death.
In reality he is generally prepos-
ferrous humbug, qualified charlatan
trading on human weakness. His
aura is positively harmful; every
single one of your many symptoms
Immediately worsens when he
comes in.
For, believe me, disease is not def
mite entity which can be attached and
routed out OF you as you would rout
dirt and dust out Of an engine whose
works had grown rusty.
Ordinary skill by means of drugs
we expect and generally get from ev-
cry doctor, but It is the far more sub
tie and potent influence of the man
and his individuality on your vital
energy that counts. Some people get
better in spite Of, not because Of, their
doctors.
The doctor of your choice, the doc
tor with the right bedside manner
should be the man who makes the
impression Of "shoong" away dis
ease, as woman "shoos" hens.

Indiana Republicans.

Results OF the primary last week place In
diana republicans in a condition of exceptional
preparedness and vantage for the 1916 cam
paign. For the support Of the Indiana dele
cation in the national convention, all repub-
lican factions had united behind ex-vice
President Charles w. Fairbanks as the favor
lite son" choice, but the significance of the re-
turns is that Fairbanks polled a much larger
vote than did Wilson, likewise unopposed for
the democratic endorsement.
For the two positions OF leadership on the
firing line the republicans OF Hoosierdom have
indicated their preference for Harry s. New
to win back the seat In the United States sem
ate lost to the democrats. and for James p
Goodrich to reinaugurate republican rule in the
state administration as governor The vote Of
Goodrich is ciear-cut by half again as many
votes as hts competitors for the nomination, but
that OF New, under the peculiar provisions Of
the Indiana primary law requiring a complete
majority sends his nomination to a convention.
although he is over 5000 votes ahead OF his
runner-up. The Impressions prevails that the
other senatorial aspirants will withdraw before
the meeting time OF the convention, SO as TO
leave News nomination in the form OF a unanI-
nous ratification OF the primary preference
something that would still further solidify the
party ranks Cor the clash with the democratic
opposition In the fail.
Considering the early stage of the game. the
prospects are certainly as encouraging as they
could possibly be for bringing Indiana back into
Its rightfuI place in the republican column.

that the United States has undertaken a work

OMAHA, March Ito the Editor of

portion of Senator Williams remarks on

Nebraska in getting a true perspective

williams:
There are times In the history of all
peoples, OF all administrations, and OF
all parties when men come to the parting
Of the ways. when there is an unavoid-
able conflict, and when each man must
stand as best he may for that which he
thinks to be true and right and brave
and patriotic.
I'm my opinion that time has come for
you and me concerning the proposition
which now faces us. and which has not
faced us because OF any action Of the
president of the United States, but which
he has been compelled to confront by
constant quizzing and constant expression
