QUICKER, BETTER RELIEF from use of Black-Draught *'I have taken Black-Draught, off and on when needed, for twenty five years, for it is easy to take,” writes Mr. George T. Wharton, of Petersburg, Va.

DEAD MAN GETS UP—DASHES AWAY Wichita, Kan.—He was dead; no doubt about it. His motorcycle stvuck a depression in the road. His body described an arc through the air and struck the pavement. Two men dashed1 to him. Not a muscle twitched. Not a pulse or heartbeat could be detected. "Done for,” the spectators agreed. Three ambulances were screaming through the city to the scene. Coro ner L. S. Markel was on his way. Just as the first ambulance ground' to a stop, the "dead” man stared wildly at those who were taking lib erties with his person. He got up with such dispatch as to startle the growing crowd. He dashed to His motorcycle, mounted and1 disappear ed in a rush of explosions ‘and fumes. "Didn’t even give his name,” Markel commented. BRIDE OF NIGHT KILLED IN LEAP Chicago, 111.—Bride of one night, Mrs. Eugenia Staperas, 23 leaped to death from a honeymoon suite on the thirty-sixth floor of the Morri son Hotel because her husband, Pet er, had told her she could not make him happy. Breakfast had been served in their bedroom. They had finished a long and bitter talk. Staperas told polic. He had reproached her for an affair with another man. For some time she sat silent. Suddenly she rose. "These are all I can give you, Pet er,” she said, tossing her wedding and engagement rings toward him. "Lady" in the days of old Meant a “loaf-giverI’ve been told— Mot to imply the icat a loafer Who passed her days upon the tofa, Bat one who gave oat breadquite stale For peasants to consume with ale. Ladies and Bread. THE connection that exists be tween a lady and a loaf of bread has nothing to do with a cook and the family bread supply. The first meaning of the word “lady” as different from “woman” is based, as today, on social stand ing. In the days of early England bread was baked only in the kitchens of ——rm—u . iht.t 'ITL* royalty. Its freshness on the table showed the social standing of the family. Those of royal blood had theirs when it was really fresh, the nobility had it the second day, the gentry ate theirs three days old, and finally it reached the masses. It was the duty of some woman of noble birth to distribute the stale loaves to the peasants, and since the word “lady” meant loaf giver, it came to be applied to a woman of refinement With such a system It Is obvious that most people ate stale bread which, while nutritious, was hardly as palatable as we wish it today. • As with everything else, we have speeded up and modernized our bread making until today in addi tion to yeast bread, we have the whole family of quick breads which are made as easily as a batch of biscuits and almost as quickly. j Bread has always been looked to as a valuable source of nutrition and these newest breads, when made with self-rising flour, which contains calcium and phosphate in its leavening agent, give us not only the valuable nutrition derived from j the flour and milk in the loaf, but in addition add appreciable amounts of two minerals that are of vital need in building strong bones and teeth. One of the most popular of theso breads, particularly with children. Is: Peanut Butter Bread. 2 cups self-rising % cup peanut flour butter % cup sugar % cup milk Blend the milk and peanut butter to a thick cream and add to the mixed flour and sugar. If dough seems very stiff add a little more milk. Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake in a slow oven for 46 to 50 minutes.
