NEWEST KIND OF BREAD
IT IS MORE NUTRITIOUS AND CHEAP¬
ER THAN ANY OTHER.
hriit of Gratitude That tho Poor of Paris
Owe to Schwetuer—His Famous I’.roml
Millie From Freshly Ground Wheat—
How This Novel Food Is Prepared.
HE poor poople of
Paris are in¬
debted to a man
with a German
tS name for a method
of getting the heat
bread at the low*
A > cat price. This
m a u hears tho
I •iW; IV-' home of Schweit¬
zer, aud the pur¬
pose of the so-
his __ciety which uses
method is to establish in all the
populous centres of France combina¬
tion milling aud halting houses which
will furnish 100 kilngrame—220
pounds*— of nutritious and digestible
white bread, from au equal amount of
grain at the lowest cost of production.
The model establishment is at La
Villette, Paris. In this bakery the
daily sales rose in three months from
$300.70 to .$772, and a corresponding
increase was noted in the branch
houses, which are patronized liberally
in tho wealthy quarter of Paris. Offi¬
cial analyses demonstrate that the
Schweitzer bread contains more nutri¬
tive nitrogenous properties than ordi¬
nary bakers’ bread, and more than
double the phosphates in the latter.
The bread, known as family bread, is
sold to the working classes at 4.82
•cents for 2.2040 pounds—which is
1.92 cents less than the us'ual price.
The Villette establishment is a
building of iron and stone 515 feet
long, situated on a canal, and con¬
structed at a cost of about $193,000.
A steam engine of 150 horse-power
supplies the power and produces the
electricity necessary for lighting pur¬
poses and for charging the accumu¬
lators of the delivery wagons.
Just as coffee is better if freshly
roasted and ground, so, Schweitzer
says, bread, is better if made from
freshly ground wheat. Tho flour in
this mill, which is a part of the estab¬
lishment, is ground only in quantities
sufficient to meet the daily needs of
the bakery. »
The wheat arrives in a boat, which
is moored in the canal; elevators hoist
it into bins, whence it is carried by
an immense elevator to the top of tho
mill and turned into the different
■cleaning aud separating machines.
After all foreign substances have been
removed and the grains of wheat have
undergone a thorough brushing and
washing they are clean and shiny, but
the grooves of the wheat sometimes re¬
tain a little dust, This is eliminated
completely by a Schweitzer appliance,
which, seizing each grain lengthwise,
splits it exactly in the groove.
The wheat thus cleaned passes into
the mill, composed of flat, circular
steel grinders, grooved in such a man¬
ner that they accomplish the husking
-of the kernel and its granulation into
meal at the same time. These grind¬
ers are movable, but do not touch; so
that, instead of crushing the wheat
and producing a flour in which the
starch only is retained, the outer aud
harder portion of tho wheat, contain¬
ing gluten and other nutritive proper¬
ties, is retained in tho flour. The
bran alone is expolled.
Attached to the mill arc the works
for kneading the meal, watej .and
yeast into broad. All of this is
done mechanically, the works being
separated into three stories. Special
yeast is prepared in tho upper story
in rooms heated in winter and cooled
in summer. The yeast, flour and the
salted and filtered water are carried
down by machinery into kneaders in
the form of half cylindrical tubs, rota¬
ting on two pivots placed in the axis
of the kneading troughs, so that the
tubs may be placed at a lower or higher
angle to accelerate or retard the knead¬
ing.
One person can attend to two
Schweitzer kneaders, regulating the
distribution of tlie dough, and thus
the kneadiug of 4409 pounds of uough
an hour is accomplished.
The steel arms of the mixing and
kneading machinery, some of whieh
are ntationary and others mobile,
stretch and work the dough much bet¬
ter than hand power.
The wheat, salted water and yeast
automatically enter one end of the tub,
and dough in an endless skein of pale
yellow issues from the opposite end.
This dough finally falls on tables on
the ground floor, where it is weighed
and made into bread of every shape
and dimension. Small wagons are
charged with the shapes, which then
go to the raising room. Each floor
has a fermenting rooms kept at an
even temperature.
The dough, after raising, is carried
by wagons into the baking room,
where it is placed in Scniveitzer ovens,
heated by gas from retorts arranged
in such a manner that the gas does
not enter the oven, and the heat isjso
regulated that the baking operation
goes on automatically.
Twice a day—once before dawn and
in the afternoon—ten large two-horse
wagons (which will he used until the
electric carriages shall have been
built) distribute the bread in the dif¬
ferent depots of theSocieteParisienne
i» Paris.
In connection with this model es¬
tablishment is a laboratory for the
Oliemical examination of tho samples
tit wheat submitted for buying. These,
ispon their arrival, are ground and
passed Land bolting through a sieve invented by a small
mill, by
Schweitzer, whieh determined imme¬
diately the ifutritivo volume of the
grain in gluten and nitrogenous mat¬
ter.
Schweitzer has mills, ovens and
kneaders of various dimensions that
may be worked by machinery or hand
power. The latter system enables the
farmer to grind bis owu wheat and
make his bread from an unadulterated
and wholesome produot.
SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL.
So great has been tho improvement
of storage batteries of late that, ao-
ccft’ding to an English engineer, a ear
now requires 500 pounds of cells that
two years ago needed 1000 pounds.
It has been discovered that the hu-
man voice is produced by forty-four
different muscles. Fourteen of these
servo for the emission of 10,380
sounds, and the others aid the pro¬
duction of some 175,000,000 different
sounds; that is, these forty-four mus¬
cles go to produce millions of differ¬
ent tones, which acoustics distinguish
as absolutely distinct one from the
other.
A very long electric railway is to bo
built in Ohio, connecting Toledo and
Norwalk and passing through seven
or eight smaller towns. Tho total
length will he sixty miles, half of
which will he on a turnpike road. The
permanent way will be of substantial
construction, as a speed of forty miles
an bour is proposed. Still higher
speed can lie made upon a straight
electric road running on its own light
of way.
Professor C. E. Bessey announces,
in a letter to Science, that he has ob¬
tained evidence that trees, including
suoh species as oak, hickory, willow,
cottonwood, elm aud box elder, are
rapidly advancing in eastern Nebraska.
The areas covered by them are grad¬
ually creeping up the courses of the
streams and spreading out laterally.
In sorAe cases, the “tree belt” along
rivers has, within twenty-five years,
increased in width from 100 feet to
half a mile, and even a mile.
Paper is proving a very satisfactory
material for driving ropes. At the
English factories of Wolverhampton,
the rope is made like that from other
materials, and contains three main
strands, each made up of a number ol
continuous strips of twisted pulp
paper. The material is made water¬
proof by treatment with boiled oil.
The rope is fairly smooth, and wonder¬
fully pliant, and in recent tests for
driving machinery it has been only
slightly polished under conditions
that have caused cotton rope to be¬
come badly worn and frayed. Its
actual tensile strength is supposed to
be considerably less than • that cl
manila rope.
Scattered in evanescent cloudlets
through the air near the earth are
many odors. Balloonists find reason
to believe that the most powerful of
these exhalations do not reach far up¬
ward, while diffusion laterally is so
slow that the smell of oil of limes was
eighteen minutes passing through s
tube three feet long, but the wind
transports the odors far and rapidly.
Bev. John M. Bacon, who has been
investigating the subject, mentions a
smell of burning fat that was drawn
by the wind into a stream much more
than seven miles long but of little
width. He mentions the record of a
boat’s crew that was euveloped in a
dense wreath of wood smoke when
400 miles at sea; aud also that of a
smell of primeval forests that seemed
to have been borne by a cyclone across
the Atlantic to the coast of France.
IrrJgation^n Siberia.
If the winters are long in Siberia
and very cold, on the other hand tlfc
summers' are extremely warm aud
dry. The small streams of water dry
up during this Beason, and agricul¬
ture suffers much from this state of
things.
To remedy the evil, the following is
what the inhabitants of certain dis¬
tricts do. During the winter they
collect tho snow which, as is well
known, falls in abundance in these
regions, and accumulate it at tho bot¬
tom of soma narrow valley. They
press it and make it compact so that
it will be more resistant to thawing.
At tho end of the winter they cover
the enormous piles which they have
thus formed with branches, straw,
manure or earth, in order to protect
the snow against the rays of the sun
and the exterior heat.
Then, when after long days without
rain the temperature is much elevated
and the water of the streams begins
to dry up, the snow, in spite of the
it’s covering, commences to melt, aud
by means of a ditch made for this
purpose, the water which runs down
supplies the river until the return of
the winter.
The Fate of the Keely Motor.
The big steel globe which stood for
many years in the workshop of the
late John W. Keely, on Twentieth
street, above Master, and wbiob played
a big part in some of the puzzling
performances of that incomprehensible
inventor, is now doing splendid ser¬
vice as an advertising medium. The
globe is still mounted on the lreavy
frame that Keely built for it, and has
been chained to a ring in one of the
flagstones in front of the old workshop
on Twentieth street. Its surface has
been painted a brilliant yellow, and
black letters an inch high have been
utilized to make the advertising matter
conspicuous. —Philadelphia iiecord.
Where Marconi** Plan Failed.
Experiments with the Marconi sys¬
tem of wireless telegraphy have been
tried lately between De Aar and Mod-

termediate poi’nts.
Messages have been successfully
sent between Orange River and Enslin
during the last day or two, bat great
difficulty was experienced, and little
further success .has been attained
owing to the odd fact that the ex¬
traordinary amount of iron in the
neighboring hills played all sorts of
pranks with the system.—Cape Town

DR.TALM AOK'R SERMON
The Eminent Divine’s Sunday
Discourse.
Subject: Drmnii nWcusicil—It Cannot Be
Hupprcml-—Christianity Should Con¬
trol and ltelorm Public Amusement—
The Church Should Go to the Theater.
[Copyright 1P00.1
Washinotox, D. C.—At n time when tho
whole country is In controversy ns never
before concerning the theater and some
plays are being arrested by the police aud
others ate being patronized by Christian of
people this sermon of Dr.'Tulmagn is
much Interest. The text is I Corinthians
vli., 81, "They that use this world as not
abusing it."
My reason for preaching this discourse is
that I have been kindly invited by two of
the leading newspapers of this country to
inspect nnd report on two of tho popular
plays of tlie day—to go somo weeks ago to
Chicago and see the drama "Quo Vttdis”
and criticise It with respect to its moral ef¬
fect and to go to New York nnd see the
drama "Ben-Hur” and write my opinion of
it for public use. Instead of doing that I
propose in a sermon to discuss what we
shall do with tho dramutlo element which
God lias Implanted in many of our natures
—not in ten or 100 or 1000, but In tho vast
majority of the human race. Home people
speak of the drama us though it were
something built up outside of oursolvus by
the Congreves and the Qoldsmlths aud
the Shakospenres nnd the Hhoridans of
literature aid that then we nttuue our
tastos to correspond with human Inven¬
tions. Not at nil. The drama Is an echo
from tho feeling which God has Implanted
la our Immortal souls. It Is seen first In the
domestic circle among the children three
or four years of age playing with their
dolls nnd their cradlos aud their ourts, seen
ten years after In the playhouses of wood,
ten years after In tho parlor charades, after
that In the elaborate impersonations In tho
acadomies of music. Thespis and JSscliy-
lus and Sophocles nnd Euripides merely
dramatized whnt was in the Greek heart;
Terence and Plautus and Saueoa merely
dramatized What was in the Bomau heart;
Congreve andFarquhar merely dramatized
whnt was in the English heart; ltaclne,
Corneille and A1 fieri only dramatized what
was In the French nnd Italian heart;
Shakespeare only dramatized what was In
tho great world’s heart. The dithyrnmblo
aud classic drama, the sentimental drama,
tho romantic drama, were merely echoes
cf the human soul.
I do not speak drama of the drama on the poetic
shell or ol the In the playhouse, but
I speak of the dramatic element in your
soul and mine. We make men responsible
for It. They are not responsible. They
are responsible for the perversion of It, but
not for the original implantation. God did
that work, and I suppose He knew what He
was about when He made us. We are
nearly all moved by the spectacular. When
oli Thanksgiving Day we and decorate our
churches with the cotton the rice and
the apples and the wheat nnd the rye and
the oats, our gratitude to God Is stirred;
when on Easter morning we see written in
letters of flowers the Inscription, "He Is
Bisen,” our emotions are stirred. Every
parent likes to go to the school exhibition,
with its recitations and its dialogues and
its droll costumes. The torchlight pro¬
cession of the political campaign is merely
the dramatization of principles involved.
No intelligent man can look in any secular
or religious direction without finding this
dramatic element revealing, unrolling,
demonstrating itself. What shall we do
with B?
Shall we suppress It? You can as easily
suppress its Creator. You may direct It,
you may educate it, you may purify it,
you may harness it to multi-potent useful¬
ness, itud that it is your duty to do, just as
we cultivate taste for the beautiful aud
sublime.
Now, I have to tell you not only that God
has Implanted this dramatic element in
our natures, but I have to tell you in the
Scriptures He cultivates it, Henppeals to It,
He develops It. I do not care where you
open the Bible, your oye will fall upon a
drama. Here it is in tho book of Judges,
the fir tree, the vine, tho olive tree, the
bramble—they all make speeches. Then at
tlie close of the scene there is a corona¬
tion, and the bramble Is proclaimed king.
That Is a political drama. Here it is in
the book of Job. Enter Eliphaz, Bildad,
Zophar, Elihu and Job. The opening act
of the drama, all darkness; the closing
act of the drama, all sunshine. Magnifl-.
aent drama is the book of Job.
Here it is in Solomon's Song—the region,
ail oriental region: Vineyards, pomegra¬
nates, mountain of myrrh, flock of sheep,
garden of spices, a wooing, a bride, a bride¬
groom, dialogue after dialqgue—Intense, book
gorgeous, all suggestive drama is the
of Solomon’s Song. Here it Is in the book
of Luke: Costly mansion in the night. All
tlie windows bright with illumination. The
floor u-quake with the dance, lieturned
son In costly garments which do not very
weti lit him perhaps, for they wore not
made for him, but be must swiftly leave off
Ills old garb aud prepare for this extem¬
porized levee. Pouting son nt the back
door, too mad to go in, because they are
making such a fuss. Tears of sympathy
running down tho old man’s oheok at the
story of his son’s wnndering nnd suffering
and tears of joy at his returrt. When you
heard Murdock recite "The Prodigal Son”
in one of his sob readings, you did not know
whether to or shout. Revivals of re¬
ligion have started just under the reading
ol that soul revolutionizing drama of “Tie
Prodigal Son.” the book of Revelation-
Here it is in
crystalline sea, pearly gate, opaline river,
amethystine capstone, showering coronets,
one vial poured out moardlnnting the wa¬
ters, cavalrymen of heaven galloping on
white horses, nations in doxology, hallelu¬
iahs to the right of them, halleluiahs to
the left of them. As the Bible opens with
the drama of the first paradise, second paradise. so it closes
with the drama of the
Mind you, when I say drama I do not
mean myth or fable, for my theology is of
the oldest type—500 years old, thousands of
years old, as old as the Bible. When I speak
of the drama at the beginning
and close of the Bible, I do not
mean an allegory, but I mean the truth
so stated that In grouping and 111 startling
effect it Is a God given, world resounding,
heaven echoing drama. Now, if God’im-
plunted this dramatic elemen’ In our na¬
tures, and Jf He has cultivated and devel¬
oped it in the Scriptures, I demand that
you recogDize it.
Because the drama has ngnln and again
been degraded and employed for destruc¬
tive purposes is nothing against the drama
any more than music ought to be ucoursed
because it has been tnken ngain and again
into the saturnallnn wassails of 4000 years.
Will you refuse to enthrone muslo on the
obureh organ because the urt has been
trampled again and agnla under the feet
of the lascivious danoe?
It Is nothing against painting nnd sculp¬
ture that In Corinth and Herculaneum
they were demonstrative ot vulgarity and
turpitude. The dreadful museum at
Pompeii shall throw no discredit on Pow¬
ers’s "Greek Blave” or Church’s "Heart
ot the Andes” or Rubens’s “De¬
scent From the Cross” or Angelo’s “Last
Judgment.” The very faei that again and
again the drama has been dragged through
the sewers of Iniquity is the reasou why wo
should snatch it up and start 't out om
a grand and a holy and a magnificent
mission. Let me say at this point in my
sermon that the drama will never he lifted
to Its rightful sphere by those people who
have not sense enough to distinguish be¬
tween the drama andtbq the theatre playhouse. than hymn- The
drama is no more a
hook is a eburoh. I am not speaking in
regard to the theatre at ail. The drama is
a literary expression of that feeling whieh
God implanted in the liumau soul. Neither
will the drama ever be lifted to Us proper
sphere by wholesale denunolatloa of all
dramatists. If you have not known men
and women eonnealed wllli the drama who
are pure In heart and pure In speech and
pare In life, It is because you have not had
very wide acquaintance.
Wholesale denunciation of all dramatists
will never elevate the drama. Yonder
stand a church and n theatre on opposlto
sides of the street. The church shouts over
to the theatre. "You are nil scoundrels!”
The theatreshouts hack, "You are all hypo¬
crites!” And they both falsify. Dropping
all indiscriminate jeremiads against dra¬
matists nnd realizing that the drama Is not
neaessarlly connected with this Institution
or with that, I want to show you how the
dramatic element In our natures may Do
harnessed to tho ohurlot of civilisation and
Christianity.
Fifty essays about tho sorrows of the
poor could not affect me as a little drama
of accident and suffering I saw one sllp-
pory morning In the stroots of Philadel¬
phia. Just ahead of me was n lad, wretch¬
ed in apparel, his limb amputated nt the
knee; from the pallor of the bey’s cheek,
the amputation not long before. He had
a package of broken food under Ills arm—
food he hud begged, I suppose, at tho
doors. As ho passed on over the slippery
pavement, cautiously nnd carefully, I
steadied Idm until his crutch slipped nnd
ho foil. I helped him up as well ns I could,
gathered up tho fragments of tho package
ns well as I could, put them under one
arm and tho crutch under the other arm,
but when I saw the blood run down his
pule cheek I hurst luto tear*. Fifty essays
about tho sufferings of the poor could not
touch one like that little drama of ucoident
and suffering.
• Ob, wo want Ip all our different depart¬
ments of usefulness more of tho dramatic
element nnd lass of tho didactic. The
tendency in tills day Is to drone religion,
to whine religion, to cant religion, to monn
religion, to croak religion, to sepulobnrlzo
religion, when wo ought to present It in
animated and spectacular manner.
What we want, ministers and laymen, is
to get our sermons nnd our exhortations
nnd our prayers out of the old rut. The old
hackneyed religious phrases that come
Buoriug down through the centuries will
never arrest the masses. What wo want
to-day, you In your sphere, and I In my
sphere, is '.o freshen up. People do not
want In their sermons the sham flowers
bought at the millinery shop, but the
japonlcas wet with the morning dew, not
tho heavy bones of extinct megatherium
of past agos, but the living reindeer caught
last August nt the edge of Schroon Lake.
We want to drive out the drowsy and the
prosaic and the todtoua and the humdrum
and introduce the brightness nnd the
vivacity and the holy sarcasm and the sanc¬
tified wit undtheeplgrammatio power and
the blood rod earnestness and the fire of re¬
ligious zeal, and I do not know of any way
of doing it as well as through the dramatic.
But now let us turn to the drama us an
amusement and entertainment.
Rev. Dr. Bellows, of New York, many
years ago in a very brilliant but much criti¬
cised sermon took the position that the
thoater might be renovated and made aux¬
iliary to the church. Many Christian peo¬
ple are of the samo opinion. I do not
agree with them. I have no idea that suc¬
cess Is in that direction. What I have said
heretofore on this subject, as far as I can
remember, is my sentiment now. Bat to¬
day I take a step in advance of my former
theory. Christianity is going to take full
possession of this world aud control its
maxims, Its laws, its literature, its science
and its amusements, abut out from tho
realm of Christianity anything und you
give it up to sin and death.
If Christianity Is mighty enough to
manago everything but the amusements of
tho world, then It is a very defective Chris¬
tianity. Is it capable of keoping account
of the tears of the world and incompetent
to make record of its smiles? Is it good to
■follow the funeral, but dumb at the world’s
play? Can It control all the other elements
of our nature but the dramatic element?
My idea of Christianity is that it can tfnd
will conquer everything.
Now, what wo want is'to hasten that
time. How will it be done? By the church
going over to the theater? It will not go.
By the theater coming to the church? It
will not come. What wc want is a reformed
amusement association in every city and
town of the United States. Once an¬
nounced and explained nnd illustrated,
the Christian und philanthropic capitalist
will come forward to establish it, and thore
wfll be public spirited men every where who
will do this work for tho dramatic element
of our natures. We need a new institu¬
tion to meet and recognize nnd develop
and dofeud the dramatic element of our
nature. It needs to bo distinct from ev¬
erything that is or has reformed been.
I would have this amusement
association having in charge this new in¬
stitution of the spectacular take possession
of some hail or academy. It might take a
smaller building nt the start, but it would
soon need the largest hall, and even that
would not hold the people, for he who
opens before the dramatic element in
human nature nn opportunity of gratifica¬
tion without compromise and without
danger does the mightiest thing of this
century, and the tides of such an institu¬
tion 'Would rise as the Atlantic rises at
Liverpool doeks. thousands of Christie*
There are tens of
homes where the sons and daughters are
held back from dramatic entertainment for
reasons which some of you would say ore
good reasons aud others would say are
poor reasons, but still held back. But on
the establishment of suoh an institution
thoy would feel the arrest of their anxieties
aud would say .on the establishment of this
new institution, which I have called tho
spectacular, “Thank, God, this is what we
have all been waiting for.”
Now, as I believe that I make suggestion
of an institution which wiser men will
develop, I want to give some characteris¬
tics of this new institution, this spectacu¬
lar, If it islo be a grand social aud moral
success. In the first place, its entertain¬
ments must be compressed within an hour
and three-quarters. What kills sermons,
prayers and lectures and entertainments
of all sorts is prolixity. At a reasonable
hour every night every curtain of church public
entertainment ought to drop, every of
service ought to cease, the instruments
orchestras ought to be unstrung. institution
On the platform drama of which this new before render¬
there will be a
ing has been rend, expurgated, abbreviated
and passed upon by a board of trustees
connected with this reformed amusemont
association. If there be in a drama a sen¬
tence suggesting evil, it will be stricken
rut. If thore be in a Shakespearean piny a
word with two meanings—a good meaning will be
and a bad meaning— mother word
substituted, an hone it word looking only
way. Tho caterers to public taste will have
to learn that Shakespearean nastiness Is no
better than Congrevean nastiness. Yon
say, “Who will dare to ohange by expurga¬
tion or abbreviation a Shakespearean
play?” I dare. The board of trustees of
this reformed amusemont association will
dare. It is no depreciation of a drama,
the abbreviation of it. I would like to hear
thirty or forty pages of Milton’s “Paradise
Lost” rend at one time, but I should be
very sorry te hear the whole book read at
one silting. Abbreviation is not deprecia¬
tion.
On the platform of this new institution
this spectacular, under the care of the very
best men and women in the community,
there shall be nothing witnessed that
would be unfit for a parlor. Any attitude,
any look, any word that would offend you
saa ted at your own fireside, in your family
circle, will be prohibited from that plat¬
form. By what law of common sense or of
moraflty does that which is not fit to he
seen or heard by five people become fit to
be seen or heard by 1500 people? On l he
platform of that spectacular all the scenes
of the drama "y111 bl as ohaste as was ever
a leoture by Edward Everett or u sermon
by F. W. Robertson. On that Inebriate, platform
there shall be no carouser, no no
cyprlan, no foe of good morals, masculine
or feminine.

Deafness Cannot 15« Cured
by local applications, as they- cannot reach the
diseased jiortlon of tlie ear. There ia only one
way to cure deafness, and that Is by constitu¬
tional-remedies. Deafness ia caused by an in¬
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets In¬
flamed you have a rumbling sound or Imper¬
fect hearing, and when It is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the inflam¬
mation can be taken out and this tube restored
to Its normal condition, hearing will be de¬
stroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an In¬
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
