Turn out onto a bread' board and roll very thin. Cut with a cookie cutter and bake in a hot oven for perhaps 15 minutes--or till brown." : F. A, H--"Sourdough Bread:-- To begin the process, make a sponge as for ordinary yeast bread, using either or compressed yeast. Let this dough or sponge set to rise, and after it rises let it set to sour for three days, in a rather warm place At any time after the ferment takes place, take @ part of the sourdough and put it in your mixing bowi: add enough water to make the amount of dough youn desire, then salt to suit the taste and add a small amount of sugar; set this iu a warm pldce to rise and sour again (from time to time, as need requires, add to the first sponge, always keep- ing a quantity of the first sponge to act as a starter. It is a good plan too, to add a small amount of yeast to keep up the life of the first sponge, or starter). "Flour must be added to each n'x- ing--one can soon judge as to the amount required (more needed for biscuit than for a batter). Baeh time a new mixture is done, use en- ough salaratus, or baking soda, to sweeten the mixture, If the sour. dough mixture seems to lack 'life' or 'lightness,' add a teaspoon of baking powder--but usually the bak- ing soda is sufficient)."

MACKEY'S BREAD PHONE 834, jets from the same famously harmless synonymous with style, selected sa suit of the boyish tailored order from .a great collection of novelties of both tailored and softer concep- tion and is concentrating ou fit. Here the appehl of the new suit is explained in part by the fitted linuy chiefly, implying as it does, a closer kinship to the custom taplored suit. The particular feature of the sult typifying the mode is its curved nt and square shoulders, all condue. ive to a tapered waistline effect. One of the important qualities or the new tallormade 1s that it re- tains a feminine identity. There is a far cry from the '"'mannhish™ char. acter to the "boyish" in the taflor- ed suit. The chief difference is that, whila the mannish term conveys a feeling of objectionable masculinity fn a woman's garb, fostered by broad lines, heavy accessories and a gen. eral imitating of wearing men's clothes, the boyish description desig nates the type that fs merely bore rowed, preserving altogether the feminine appeal. Not a little of the charm of the new tailleur is gleaned from the ae« Cessories that are launched impote tantly with the mode.
