A GROUP OF SWEET BREADS.
This Is the time of year when cakes
of various kinds may be made and
kept for weeks, improv
ing with age. A store
of good things is as
much a source of com
fort as a bank account
for a rainy day. The fol
lowing recipes are some
old and some new, but
are all worth keeping in
reserve. For an ordi
nary loaf two cupfuls of sponge and
any variety of fruit, spice and flavor
ing to suit the taste, may be added.
Caraway Loaf. Take one-half cup
ful of sugar, two tablespoonfuls of
shortening, one cupful of raisins, one
tablespoonful of caraway seeds, one
egg and two cupfuls of sponge. Mix
the sponge with the ingredients, add
ing as little flour as can be handled
to knead ; make into a loaf, and when
double its bulk bake In a moderate
oven. The flour may be stirred In
without kneading, and If well mixed
so that the yeast plant is distributed
in all parts of the dough, the bread
will be even grained, light and ten
der. When a rolled dough is desired
more flour will be needed. The fruit
and spices may be added to the loaf
as It is ready for the oven, or spread
over the top, rolled and baked either
In a ring when very light, or cut In
smafl slices.
Fig Loaf. Is prepared as above, us
ing onehalf cupful of figs finely
chopped, one-half cupful of walnut
meats and one-half teaspoonful of
grated nutmeg. The figs tdke the
place of the raisins.

ins, two tablespoonfuls of poppy seeds

citron. If the poppy seeds are not
agreeable, try cardamon seeds.

ful each of raisins and orange mar
malade with the other ingredients as

As A General Store
We would carry them all
and everhthing between. But
as a matter of fact we carry
nothing of the kind. We most decidedly are NOT a general store. Each of
the above four items are all right in their place. But this store is a
FURNITURE store, and one of the best equipped in this part of the State.
Every inch of our space, including warehouse room and basement, is crowded
with furniture and hous furnishings goods. We have never carried such a huge
assortment, or such excellent material as this Spring. We invite you to look
our stock over; call for what you want and we can supply you. Our goods are
priced with the times; and we sell on cash or credit.
