Curious Statistics of the Blind.
The people of Russia are more terrib'y
afflicted with the infirmities of blindness
than any other rice, sect or nation on the
f.ce of the globe, the proportion being
21 to every 10,000 of population. In
1880 there'was an official c .-i sus taken
,,t the blind of Europe. These stat:s
tics show a rem rk date state of alT drs,
especially in European Russia, the Cau
usus and Poland. In tbe countries
named there was a total of 189,872 per- The
0119 who were entirely blind,
whole of the remainder of Europe (mi
mind this includes the thickly populated Spain,
: untrics of Germany, F.auce,
tinland, B Igiutn, Great Britain, etc.)
i) ly h s a blind population numbering
88,812, while the three Americas,
North, G'entiat and South, with their
•glands, have le s than 23,000 persons
who are totally bereft of sight.
In the Caucisus the women, especially li
hose of country districts, are proportion more t
ble to cecity than men, the
being about 27 to 19. I l Poland there
ire 25 blind men for every 14 blind
women, the same percentage holding

Tin- New Breud.
The favor with which the new bread,
made with Royal Baking Powder instead
of yeast, haa been received by our best
housekeepers and most expert bread
makers is really wonderful. ‘‘It aave 3
all the hard and tedious work of knead¬
ing and moulding,” writes one. “Less
than an hour from the dry flour to the
most perfect loaf of bread I ever saw,”
writes another. “Fiish bread every
day,” says another, ‘ ‘and that the lightest,
finest and most wholesome, is something
to live lor.” “We relish the bread bet¬
ter than the old kind;" “it is ahead of
any yeast bread I ever baked;” “the
bread was whiter and softer.” “Best of
all," writes an enthusiastic housewife,
“we can eat the Royal unfemented bread
when freshly baked, or even when warm,
with perfect impunity. It is actually an
anti-dyspeptic b,c.(i ” l
■■rbiH ha. a ’ ««tc, th.t
is peculiarly pleasing,” writes stiil an¬
other. This is owing to the fact that
the active gas-producing principle of
the Royal is derived from the pure
grape acid.
The great value of this bread arises
front the fact that in it are preserved all
the most nutritive elements of the flour,
some of which are decomposed ami
destroyed hy^tlie aciioa of yeast. The )o«»
of these properties is what makes fresh
yeast bread unwholesome. The use of the
Royal Baking Powder instead of yeast
is found to make n finer, lighter bread,
devoid of all dyspeptic qualities. The
same gas—carbonic—is produced as
where yeast is used, but it is evolved
from the baking powder itself and not
from the flour. Thereby the bread is
made more wholesome and actually anti¬
dyspeptic. The greater convenience,
where a batch of the finest bread can be
made and baked in less than an hour
with no danger of a sour or heavy
loaf, must he appreciated by everyone.
The receipt for making this bread is
herewith given, and housekeepers will
do well to cut it out and preserve it:
To make one loaf—One quart 1 our,
one teaspoonful salt, half a teaspoonful
sugar, two heaping teaspoonfuls Rival
Baking Powder, half medium-sized cold
boiled potato, and water. Sift together
thoroughly flour, salt, sugar and baking
powder; nib in the potato; add sufficient
water to mix smoothly and rapidly into
a stiff hatter, about as soft &s for pound¬
cake; about a pint of water to a quart
of flour will be required—more or less
according to the brand and quality of
the flour used. Do not make a stiff
dough, like yeast bread. Pour the bat¬
ter into a greased pan, 4jx 8 inches, and
four inches deep, filling about hall full.
Tbe loaf will rise to fill the pan when
baked. Bake in very hot oven forty-five
minutes, placing paper over first fifteen
minutes bakiug, to prevent crusting too
soon on top. Bake at once. Don't mic
\rilh milk.
Perfect success requires tbe most care¬
ful observance of all these details, and
