to polish them regularly, to oil them
once or twice month with little
castor oil, and to avoid getting them
soaking wet.
The minute seam begins to rip,
the upper cracks through, heel twists
out of shape or runs down, or hole
wears through the outsole, the shoe
needs mending. If the necessary re-
pairs are put off the shoe will not be
worth mending. This is particularly
true If the welt is worn away or the
insole is worn through.
The illustration shows pair of
shoes with extremely worn soles,
which did not look worth repairing.
The uppers were good, however, and
by having complete new soles put on
for 50, the shoes were made to give
three months more service.
Rundown heels are bad for body
posture as well as uncomfortable and
unsightly to wear. Worn heel lifts"
of leather or rubber can be replaced
easily. Ripped seams in the uppers
can sometimes be hand-stitched at
home.
With modest repair kit many
minor shoe troubles can be cured by
anyone handy with tools.

ONE PRESCRIPTION
MADE FAMILY DOCTOR
FAMOUS

Seldom has any single act been
of greater benefit to mankind than
that of DR.. Caldwell in 1885, when
he wrote the prescription which
has carried his fame to the four
corners Of the earth.
! Over and over, DR.. Caldwell
wrote the prescription as he found
men, women and children suffering
from those common symptoms Of
constipation, such as coated tongue,
bad breath, headaches, gas, nausea.
biliousness, no energy, lack OF
appetite, and similar things.
Demand for this prescription
grew so fast, because Of the pleas
ant, quick way it relieved such
symptoms of constipation, that by
1888 DR.. Caldwell was forced to
have it put up ready for use.
Today, DR.. Ca1dwells Syrup Pepsin,
as it is called, is always ready at
any drugstore.

be brought to temperature below
100 degrees E. before mixing with the
yeast. The temperature should be adj
justed SO as to bring the temperature
of the dough to about 50 degrees r.
The flour, except about one cupful,
should be added to the liquid and
mixed thoroughly with spoon, the
hands, or mechanical bread mixer.
ALI the flour may be added at once If
experience has shown the amount nee
essary. 1t is impossible, however, to
tell beforehand how much flour will be
required unless flour from this lot has
been used. The dough should be as
soft ae it can be conveniently ham
died, but It should not be sticky.
More flour is required with water than
with milk. a
When the flour and liquid are thor
oughly mixed and the dough no longer
sticks to the sides Of the bowl, it is
ready to be kneaded. If bread mix
er is used, it kneads as well as mixes.
To knead by hand, turn the dough
out on clean Toured board and work
quickly with the palms Of the hands
until 1t is sNooth and elastic.
Allow the bread to rise to about dou-
BILE it's bulk in place where the tenn
perature is from 80 degrees to IS de-
grees F. The bowl may be placed in
a pan Of warm water to raise the tenn
perature of the dough If it has cooled
Of, and keep it at the right point.
Punch down, turn the ball of dough
over, and allow it to rise a second
time. Divide then into loaves, mold,
grease the top surface lightly, and
place in pans to rise again, regulating
the temperature carefully as before.
Start to bake in fairly hot oven, 400
degrees to 415 degrees r., depending
on the size of the loaf. A pound loaf
should be baked at higher temper
ature and more quickly than pound
and a half loaf. Turn the loaves
around after 20 minutes and lower the
temperature of the oven. Bake from
45 minutes to one hour. Cool the
loaves on rack as soon as they leave
the oven. Do not cover while warm.

British Monarch. Title

James wished to use the title OF
"King of Great Britain" instead Of
"King of England and Scotland" and
even went so far as to have It placed
on his coins. In 1904 he asked par
lament to consent to the new title,
but fears were expressed lest the
laws and liberties OF England might
be jeopardized and the commons
urged that some agreement as to the
terms Of union precede assumption Of
the title. James finally yielded to
the advice of his minister. Robert
Cecil. and the change was deferred.
Tie title did not receive parliament
tary sanction until the Act Of Union,
1907.

One of the important uses of the
general purpose cooking thermometer
Is in making yeast-raised bread. The
temperature of the dough should be
kept constantly at about 80 degrees
F. throughout the mixing and rising
periods. This can only be done ex-
actly when a thermometer is used.
An oven thermometer, too, will be
wanted when the bread is baked. The
following directions for making bread
at home are given by the bureau of
home economics. The materials in
dicated yield about three and half
pounds, that Is, three large or four
small loaves of bread. Hard-wheat or.
bread flour is called for. If soft,
wheat flour Is used larger quantity
is needed; also more yeast and sugar.
For the same amount of liquid about
two and half pounds or two and
three-quarters quarts of sifted soft
wheat flour will be required, and about
double the amount Of yeast and sugar.
The liquid in either case may be

I tsp. salt
With the temperature about 81 de-
grees F. bread can be made by the
straight dough method with the above
ingredients in about four hours from
the time the dough Is mixed until the
loaves are put into the oven. A small
quantity Of the liquid, about one-half
cupful, must be set aside for softening
the yeast. If milk is used, it must be
scalded first to check the growth of
bacteria, and then cooled. The part
reserved for soaking the yeast should
be cooled quickly, and the rest may
be poured while hot over the sugar,
salt and fat. Other liquids than milk
do not require heating, but often this
Is done for convenience in dissolving
and melting the sugar, salt and fat.

Broom corn is one Of those nat
ural products, like cork, that are so
perfectly adapted to the uses to which
they are put that no substitute has
been found or is likely to be found.
It is almost exclusively an American
crop. The first broom-corn market in
this country was developed by the
Shaker community at Watervliet, NY,
in 1893.
In the early part of the Eighteenth
century broom-corn raising and broom
making were largely in the hands OF
the Shakers and others in New Eng
