Different Ways OF Making 1t
Quite Appetizing.

Odds and Ends.

Toastlng is the most common
method for making stale or partly
stale bread attractive. hut II is by no
means the only one. If prrtly stale
bread is put into very hot oven for

Such warmed-over bread is not as soft

therefore. when bread has lost its
freshnesss. is TO cut or what will be
needed at n meal and place the slices
In hot oven for few minutes just
before serving. In this way bread can
be used on the table which would or
dinarily be considered too stale.
'"Twice-baked bread" which Is cut

in a pan on the back of the stove and
allowed to dry out slowly until 1t is
slightly brown and crisp throughout,
offers still another way of making
stale bread attractive. II desired. this
twice-baked bread may be crushed
with a rolling-pln and used like the
ready-to-eat breakfast cereals. In
some localities this dish has long been
known under the name of rusks.
The little fried cubes of bread called
croutons. which are served with soup,
may be made of odds and ends of
bread. To save time. bread simply
broken into small pieces may be fried
either In deep fat or in pan (sauteed)
and used for the same purpose. Some
times bread crumbs fried in pan are
used as n seasoning or sauce for meat.
French cooks frequently put pieces Of
stale bread in soups just long enough
before serving for them to soften; the
well-known one, "crust in the pot"
(croute au pot). is simply thin soup
with bread in II.
There are many ways of using stale

be pressed very carefully; in fact,
sometimes hanging n silk dress over
tub of steaming water will remove
wrinkles without actual ironing.
Washable white silk garments should
be washed and rinsed in lukewarm
water. wrapped in towel, and pressed
with warm, not hot, iron. Handled
In this way they will not turn yellow.
Shoes more than many other articles
of clothing, need to be thoroughly

ration from rotting the lining. Keep
ing shoes on shoe trees or stuffed with
paper when not In use preserves their
original shape, and Is especially neces-
sary If the shoes have become wet.
Intense heat is likely to crack leather;
therefore wet shoes should never be
dried under the stove or on a register

Cleaning Hats and Gloves.
A hat that is worn day after day
needs special care to keep it looking
neat Careful brushing or, in the case
OF straw -ats, wiping with cloth
dipped in denatured alcohol will re-
move dust and freshen it. A new
band on a mans hat may postpone the
necessity of buying new hat for
months. Trimmings on women's hats
that become loosened by wind or wear
should be sewed into place as follows:
Thread long needle with coarse
thread or silk. of an inconspicuous col

side through the hat beside the loos-

Of thread on the wrong side; pass the

.Jeweler Held
Without Bail as
Attacker of Cert
Pincus Says Insurance Man
Was Jostled by Crowd and
Fell Against a Pillar;
Denies Blow Was Struck
Money Believed Missing
Son Said Father Had Large
Sum When He Left Hotel;
$50 Found at Hospital

Solomon Pincus, of 1878 St. Johns
Place, Brooklyn, the young jeweler who
is accused of striking l.. A. Cert, gen
eral agent for the Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance Company, causing him
to fall in such way as to fracture his
skull, was held without bail yesterday
in Tombs police court on a short affi-
davit charging him with felonious as
sault. His examination was set for
to-day.
Dr.. Alfred Savage, in whose care
Mr.. Cert is at Broad Street Hospital,
said that his patient was suffering from
a serious fracture of the skull and
would be confined to his bed for at
least six weeks. The fracture ran
from the forehead to the right side of
the head, he said. There is danger CT
the formation of clot Of blood on the
brain, which would make an operation
necessary.
Friends of the insurance man were
puzzled by the report made at the tos-
pital that Mr.. Cert had only $40 in his
pocket when he reached there. His
son, Louis Cert, told the police that
his father left the Plaza Hotel with a
large sum of money in his possession
Mr.. Cert has been unconscious most of
the time since reaching the hospital
and has said nothing of how he re-
ceived his injury.
Pincus, his alleged assailant, said
that Cert was jostled by the crowd at
the entrance of the Hudson Terminal
Building and fell, striking his head
against a pillar of the elevated struc-
ture. He had the names of many per-
sons, he said, who could testify that no
one struck the insurance man.
1t was said at the hospital that Mr..
Cerf's identity was known from papers
in his possession as soon as he was ad-
mitted to the institution, and it was
only the difficulty of getting in touch
with his family which prevented his
whereabouts being made known at
once. The police had been asked to
look for Mr. Cert some hours before
his friends learned that he was at the
hospital.
Pincus is employed by Adolph Roscn-
berg, jeweler, of so Columbia Street,
Newark. He lives with his widowed
mother, Mrs. Rose Pincus, and a sister,
Anna. The mother, when seen yester-
day morning, said that she had not
heard of her sons trouble. She insist
ed she had never heard him mention
