THE BREAD-MAKERS.

HOW THE VARIOUS KINDS ARE MADE TO SUIT ALL TASTE8.

Steam Bakeries and the Bread They Make "Boston Brown," "HomeMade," and Other Varieties—

Bread and People.

[Philadelphia Times.]

There are about twenty-five varieties of bread made nowadays and this does not include the light, nutrition* loaves that our grandmothers knew so well bow to bake, nor tho crude, doughy flr*t efforts of Vassar graduates. Over 1,000,000 barrels of flour are sold annually for home consumption and two-thirds of this is made into bread. The 1,300 bakers in the city use 800,000 barrels. A barrel of good flour will make from 270 to 280 5-cent loaves, and the best flour is the cheapest to use. Philadelphia bakers, as a rule, use choice brands and mix four grades to get the right alloy, so to speak—two "Minnesota springs" and two "Indiana winters." Some bakers, particularly those who make the best brands of bread, only use one grade of spring wheat and two of winter. Iti tho olden time yeast was made of malt, potatoes and bops, and it is still largely used. The bakers of fancy breads use a patent yellow compressed yeast.

STEAM BAKERIES.

There are seven large steam bread bakeries in the city, giving employment to 300 or 400 hands. -One large establishment manufactures the different varieties of Vienna bread exclusively. It i* made of the best flour and milk instead of water is used to mix the flour. The baking is done in airtight ovens and the steam generated in baking settles back on the bread instead of escaping. This makes the outer crust thin and tender and gives the bread a peculiarly rich taste and pleasant aroma. Vienna bread is sold at a better prioe than the ordinary water bread and many families will use no other.

A recent invention in bread is what is known in the trade as ''steam." It is made of the very b**t flour aud baked in airtight pans that enclose it on all sides. It is thus baked in its own steam and has a flue flavor. The tins mould it into a symmetrical loaf about twelve inches in length, perfectly round and squared at the ends.

VARIOUS TRADE NAMES.

Only two bakers in the city make Boston brown bread, which is composed of yellow oorn and rye meal sweetenei with molasses or brown so ar. One baker devote* his attention to what is known as aerated bread. ThLs is manufactured altogether by steam and is peculiarily light and spongy. While in course of preparation the dough is charged with carbonic acid gas. whioh renders the bread light without detracting in any way from its nutritious qualities. Dyspeptics can eat it without inconvenience.

One of the most popular breads is a round compact loaf, which is kuown in the trade as "home-made." A small quantity of white corn meal is mixed with the flour, which makes the bread firm and moist and render* it possible to keep it several days in a fresh condition.

The Schwartz and Kimmel bread, which fc found on the lunch counter of every beer saloon and is much price! and almost exclusively eaten by the Germans, is made of lilaok rye. Its manufacture is confined to the small German bakers. Two or three Jewish bakers make the wafer-like Passover bread, which is eaten by the faithful Jews during the great feast from which it takes its name.

The large bakers have a variety of trad* names for their goods, such as Vienna, steam, cream, cream French, cream Vienna,

home-made,

bran and rye, breakfast roils,

Anger rolls, Vienna rolls, kaiser snmmol and ktpfel«. Among the bakers of cheaper broads thoir goods are classed as rolls, twists, box and brick. The long and square Vienna loaves and their various imitations are most eaten.

THE BAKERS* HARVEST.

During the fall and spring months is the bakers' harvost time. In summer people eat less an I thousands leave the city. In winter hot cakes for breakfast and muffins for tea are made at home and many bake their own bread.

There have been many improvements mado in bake-ovens of late years and several attempts to devise a machine that would knead the dough. These latter have been failures and the dough is still kneaded by hand. "When I first entered the business, years ago," said an old baker, "there was a great prejudice against baker's bread. It used to bo charged, I remember, that the bakers kneaded the dough with their feet. These silly and baseless stories have long since been forgotten. Most bakers pride themselves on their cleanliness and will employ no man who uses tobacco. It used to be charged, and is now by people who know nothing about the business that we whitened our bread with alum. I never saw any used for that purpose and I have been in the buainea for forty years. We don't adulterate, either. There is no cheaper adulterant than flour and tho best you can buy is the cheapest"

BREAD AND PROPUS.

New Knglanders are very fond of brown bread, which they eat with their Sunday morning dish of baked bean*. During the week they eat the ordinary grades of bread and are particularly partial to fresh teabiscuit at ni*ht The southerners eat corn bread, smoking hot, and their wheat bread is usually small, flat soda bi.«cuita, which aro not palatable when rold. Strange as it may seem, the negro never eats corn broad if be can help it and prefers his wheat bread warm and spongy.

The English and Irish are fond of a paouliar bread baked on the hearth in round loaves. They like their bread cold and do not object if it is stale. Americans as a class prefer wheat bread as white and fresh as possible. The Germans eat rye bread almost exclusively and are particularly food of the kimmel orseed bread.

The Italians and Chinese eat stale bread exclusively," said a baker, "and I never yet beard an Italian or a Chinaman suffering from dyspepsia or the toothache."

LULLABY-TIME.

O. the lullaby-time, the lullaby-time! With its comforts of nestling, it song and its rhyme The soft rfinglng arms, and the little lips red Hie plump baby tonn, and the round golden bead Hie little low rocker, the dainty crib near— O the lullaby-time, all so happy and dear! What tho? daytime be busy, perchance ful of care, When in sunlight and shadow each mother must share What tho' pleasures be many, or troubles increase. There's a sweet hoar coming, with soothing and peace Tig the lullaby-time, O the lullaby time. With its comfort of nestling, its song, and its rhyme. O, we mothers are sorry for those who don't know The rest that creeps in with the twilights soft glow. That rest tnat is l»rn of the lullaby-time. When the carei of the day fly before the low chime That comes welling from depths where the mother's love springs, And charms into slumber the baby that clinsp, And re-ties, and cooes, till dreamland at last The little dream-angels are holdidg her fast.

THE ROMAN FEVER.

Exaggerated Reports That Have Been Circulated Concerning It. [Rome Cor. San Francisco Chronicle^

The Italians amuse themselves in theii simple and rational way during the summer, and seem to be exceedingly comfortable, though, as in Egypt, they wear heavy broadcloth or other stuffs that would be thought unendurable in the northern cities of America. The nights are always so coo! that a parson can take moderate exercise during the evening and sleep well under thin covering. It is said that the nights in Rome are unhealthy that persons must not go about evenings, and must even exclude the air at night by jealously closing the windows. I have taken none of these precautions. I have invariably slept with my windows open, and during my two weeks of stay have been invariably in.the streets and places where there is usually music until a late hour without feeling the slightest inconvenience. On the contrary, there has seemed to be a healing quality in the night air that restored the ill effects of the heat at midday.

Yet the Roman fever is held up as a mortal terror to Americans who might like to «isit Rome during the warm season, and Henry James has made Daisy Miller, one ef bis most interesting heroines, die of the Roman fever, because she indiscreetly went to hear the band in tbe Place di Colonna. There was, of coure, no reason why the life of a heroine like Daisy Miller should have been protracted, for she certainly had little excuse for being, but there was less reason why her untimely end should be laid at the door of one of the healthiest climates in the world, and to a city whose death-rate, even at this season, does not exceed, and, I believe, does not equal, that of San Francisco. The mortality of Rome, whioh has a population of over 850,000, is not at this moment more than 100 per week, and doei not soy season greatly excead that. It is truo that persons get sick at Rome and die of some malarial trouble that is called the Roman' fover. But so they die also in America of malarial fever of many kinds, and of diphtheria and throat diseases which sometimes become epidemie.

There is little doubt that the fevers oi Rome may generally be attributed to the indiscretions of the people that have them. Peoplo come to Rome after weeks of travel, during whioh they have been in constant motion, stopping a day or two in a place, eating all sorts of food, sleeping in all sorts of bsds, and suffering all manner of exposures. Rome is the goal. They arrive with the expectation of spending several week', and during these weeks of course they are in a state of rest compared with the period of active travel through which they have just passed. They do a good doal of sight-seeing in cold picture galleriet and drafty churches, passing abruptly from one extreme of temperature to the other, and from excesses of fatigue to intervals ol repose.

In the leisure thus afforded the malarial troubles and other physical disturbances that have accumulated and been unnoticed during the period of more rapid travel and greater excitement have opportunity to ap pear. Local causes may favor their development, but the seed has undoubtedly been sown elsewhere. I have asked many Romans if they had had the fever, and they invariably replied no, and almost always with a sneer. There were occasional cases, they said, in the low parts of the city, near the Tiber, but on the slopes of the Pincian and Quirinal hills it was nevez heard of.

Why People Die. [San Francisco Chronicle.]

They were discussing the topic of the hour, the death of Gen. Grant and the decorations and the parade. Tbe young hopeful of the family, who it still "only 5 years old," owing to tho exigencies of tbe car transportation, was listening as hard as the discussion of sundry pieces of pie and things would permit He had got through, and concluded he would take an oar himself. "Mamma," he said, "what makes people die. any way "Everybody's got to die," said mamma, in the usual evasive way in which people answer children's question* "If God made people what does He mean by making them diet" "My child, you forget that people mast die to tnaks room for the children that are always being born. There would not be room for the new people if noboiy died" "That's 10," said the Uttle fellow contemplatively "and then there's so many pet dog*"

A Touching Instance. [Exchange.]

A touching instance of insect instinct has just been sent to us. The writer says: "1 found a cockroach struggling in a bowl at water. I took half a peanut shell for a boat. I put him into it and gave him two wooden toothpicks for oar* and left him. The next morning I visited him and he had pat a piece of white ootton thread oa one of the toothpicks and set the toothpick oa an end as a signal of distress. He had a hair

There are 235 words here which are frequently mispronounced.]

Geoffrey, surnamed Winthrop, sat in the depot at Chicago, waiting for his train and reading Tbe Tribune, when a squadron of street Arabs (incomparable for squalor) thronged from a neighboring alley, uttering hideous cries, accompanied by inimitable gestures of beinons exultation, as they tortured a bumble black-and-tan dog. "You little blackguards 1" cried Winthrop, stepping outside and confronting them, adding the inquiry, "Whose dog is thatf "That audacious Caucasian has the bravado to interfere with our clique," tauntingly shrieked the indisputable little ruffian. exhibiting combativeness. "What will you take for him?" asked the lenient Geoffrey, ignoring the venial tirade. "Twenty-seven cents," piquantly answered the ribald urchin, grabbing the crouching dog by the nape. "You can buy licorice and share with the indecorous coadjutors of yoar oondemnable iruelty," said Winthrop, paying the price and taking the dog from the child. Then catching up his valise and umbrella he hastened to his train. Winthrop satisflei himself that bis sleek protege was not wounded, and then cleaned the cement from the pretty collar, and read these words: "Leicester. Licensed. No. 1880."

Hearing the pronunciation of his name, the docile canine expressed gratitude and pleasure, and then sank exhausted at his new patron's feet and slept.

Among the other passengers was a magasine contributor writing vagaries in Indian literature, also two phrsioians, a somber, irrevocable, irrefragable allopathist, and a genial homcetpathist, who made a specialty of bronchitis Two peremptory attorneys from the legislature of Iowa were discussing the politics of the epoch and the details of national finanoe, while a wan, dolorous person wearing concave glasses alternately ate trochas and almonds for a sedative, and sought condolence in a high, lamentable treble from a lethargic and somewhat deaf and enervate comrade not yet acclimated. Near three exemplary brethren (probably sinecurists) sat a group of humorous youths and a jocose sailor (lately from Asia) in a blouse waist'and tarpaulin hat was amusing his patriotic juvenile listeners by relating a series of the most extraordinary legends extant, suggested by the contents of his knapsack, which he was calmly and leisurely arranging in a pyramidal form on a threelegged stool. Above swung figured placards with museum and lyceum advertisements, too verbose to be misconstrued.

A mature matron of medium height and her comely daughter soon entered the ear, and took seats in front of Winthrop (whorecalled having seen them one Tuesday in February,in the parquet[of a theatre). The young lady had recently made her debut into society at a musical soiree at her aunt'a She had an exquisite bouquet of flowers that exhaled sweet perfume. She said to her parent, "Mamma, shall we ever find my lost Leicester

Geoffrey immediately addressed bar, saying as he presented his card— "Pardon my apparent intrusiveness but prithee, have you lost a pet dog?"

The explanation that no had been stolen was scarcely necessary, for Leicester, just awakening, vehemently expressed his inexplicable joy by buoyantly vibrating between the two like the sounding lever use 1 in telegraphy ((or to neither of them would he show partiality), till, succumbing to ennui, he purported to take a recess, and sat on his haunches complacently contemplating his friends. It was truly an interesting picture.

They reached their destination ere the sun was beneath the horizon. Often during the summer Winthrop gallantly rowed from the quay with the naive and blithe Beatrice in her jaunty yachting suit but no coquetry sbone from ths depths of her azure eyes. Little LJSS, their jocund confidante and courier (and who was as sagacious as a spaniel), always attended them on these occasions, and whene'er they rambled through the woodland paths. While the band played strains from Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Bach and others,they promenaded the long corridors of tbe hotel And one evening, as Beatrice lighted the gas by the etagere in her charming boudoir in their suite of rooms, there glistened brilliantly a valuable solitaire diamond on her finger.

Let us look into the future for the sequel to perfect this romance, aud around a cheerful hearth we see again Geoffrey and Beatrice, who are paying due homage to their tiny friend Leicester.

Deciding the Choice.

N

[Louisville Courier-Journal.]

A party of young people were out for a walk. Among them were two sisters, who were in doubt as to whom the attentions of an exceedingly desirable parti were directed, for up to this time he had been provokingly impartial. The young folks suddenly came to a place in the road that had been rendered swampy by recent rains, and three or four of tbe girls lost their shoe*. This was in the days long gone by when low shoes were worn without fastenings.

Among the unfortunate losers of shoes were the wo sisters. As it happened, their errant belongings were restored by the gallant admirer. But in putting the shoes upon the maid MIS' feet be notice! that on the toe of the *tocking of one sister there was a rough, coaurse darn, while the stocking of the other, which was also darned, had been mended so skillfully that the repairs were scarcely to be distinguished. Tbe halting lover no longer vacillated. Tbe good darner was chosen to be tbe mistress of "tower and halL" People were sorprlssd, for the other sister was more beaatifal bat the husband always said that tbe excellent darn decided the choice, which be bad never regretted.

GWIN AND M'CORKLE'S DUEL.

Alter Tearing Each Others Clothes a Startling Discovery Was Made. [St. Louis Republican.] "An event which excited national interest was Senator Gwin's duel with Congressman Joe McCorkle. McCorkle represented a California district, and foil deeply in love at Washington with a Tennessee girl, but if he had any affection for him it was alienated by Mr. Gwin, who was a beautiful and accomplised woman, and a superb diplomats. McCorkle's animosity was aroused against Gwin in cousequenoe, and the feeling between the two California representatives was so intense that the Washington papers at the time published a great deal about the affair. There was then only one ship a month to the Pacific slope, and Gwin and McCorkle, although so hostile, went out home together. On board their relations were very stiff and stilted. "When the ship touched at Santiago I went aboard and accompanied them to San Francisco. I was a friend of both men, and endeavored to bring about a reconciliation between them, but as soon as we landed at San Francisoo McCorkle challenged Gwin to a duel, and Gwin accepted. "I called on Gwin tbe day after the challenge. and he, having heard that I had agreed to second McCorkle, exclaimed: 'My Godl major, are you, my old friend, going to turn against mef I assured him that I would take no part in the affair. The sheriff, however, interfered and prevented the duel at San Francisco. Fin ling they could not meet for tbe purpose there tbey decided to go to Monterey and have the duel at a place about fifteen miles out from the town. "All the preliminaries being arranged for a week prior to the time of the enoounter, each of the principal's practiced assiduously with the rifle, and there were a number of spectators of tbe practice shooting. Each man, too, had his friends among the witne sees of the other's practice, and thus got ideas of his opponent's skilL Their shooting in these rehearsals was magnificent, and everyone thought that one or both of them would surely fall in the actual encounter. ?On the appointed, day Gwin and McCorkle, accompanied by their seconds and friends, repaired to the selected spot, and the dreaded duel was fought They were fifty or sixty yards apart, and blazed away with rifles. They tore each other's clothes, but after firing seven shots bai drawn no blood. This did not satisfy them, and they called for more ammunition. Then a discovery was made. The ammunition hod been exhausted, and tbey were fifteen miles from Monterey, and about 1,000 miles from anywhere else. It was plain that tbe duel was over for that day. In great disgust, but still as venomous as ever, tbe parties departed for San Francisco. The differences between McCorkle and Gwin were afterward adjusted. This bloodless duel became historical, and is one of the the most famous in dueling annaR "Gwin soon left California, and I never saw him afterward."

Matrimony In the Keystone State. [Philadelphia Times.] Getting married iu Philadelphia after the Istof October will require some careful deliberation to answer tbe searching questions under oath, as required by tho now law.

Old Rome's Bostra. [Boston Budget]

It is now possible to form a very distinct notion of what tbe Rostra, in old Borne, looked like it was a long, rectangular platform of gleaming white marble, decorated with rich but simply designed mouldings at the top and bottom, and having its front wall studded with tbe bronse beaks of ships, no doubt thickly gilt, and each fastened to a bronse pilaster which divided tbe long marble wall by a series of vertical lines. These bronse pilasters wars repeated along tbe end walls, tfaoagb her* tbe beaks were absent

Tbe upper platform, also of white marble, had its crowd of. honorary statoea, probably raised upon pedestals so as to lift them above the screen of marble lattice work. Tbe central space was probably left free for the orator* and their supporters, and in the middle the figure of tbe speaker was visible from head to foot through the gap left in tbe marble screen. It is thus possible to form a vivid picture of some oi tbe moat stirring scenes which ever occurred even in that great center of historical interest, tbe Forum Romanum. W#''

Life of a Variety Actress. [New York Graphic.]

To such young persons as may be in danger of fascination by the stage the following sketch of tbe daily life of a variety actress is submitted. The lady in question is much envied by reason of the good salary she earns and the easy life she is supposed to enjoy. At noon she attends rehearsal, which lasts until the performance at3, which, after a short interval, is fol lowed by the eve uing performance. After midnight there is a ride to tbe ferry and twenty minutes' walk before home is reached at 2 a. m. Her coming is looked for nightly at the ferry dook by the habitual passengers on tho frete trips, and with them there is always waiting her invalid husband, who. however tired, is almost always bright and cheery.

A few night ago she was dull and de pressed. "I am afraid," she said, "to meet my husband with uews of baby. She's very low. It made me heartsick to leave her but I bad to go to business or lose my place, and so for baby's sake I went Ob, how I hated the noise, tbe music, the lights, the crowd, the shiny dresses and the stale jokes to-nightr Tbe next night our little actress was brimful with pun and chaff "be cause baby's better, thank God!—going to got well, you know." Such Is the life of the successful on the stage—fifteen hours a day of monotonous toil and travel, well or in* disposed, full at care or free from care.
