Uncle Sam Explains
How to Make Bread
American Housewife Wastes Much
Energy, Government Depart
ment Expert Says.
WASHINGTON, May 7.—The Amer
ican housewife wastes much energy
in making bread, according to Miss
Hannah Wessling. expert bread mak
er for the Department of Agriculture.
Bread doesn’t need much kneading,
she declares. Let the yeast do your
work. Her method is:
Take twelve ounces of flour for a
one-pound loaf. Use one-fourth ounce
of sugar, one-fourth ounce of salt and
ten ounces of tepid water. Mix the
yeast, salt and flour, and then let
them ferment for an hour instead of
using them immediately after they
“foam." ' Warm the flour and mix
with the ferment. Allow the mass
to stand one hour. Don’t handle it. It
doesn't need much kneading. Mix it
up and allow it to stand another 45
minutes, when it is ready for the
molds.
The entire process should be con
ducted in a room where the tempera
ture is 80 to 86 degrees. Any warmer
means sour bread and any cooler sog
gy bread.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINN, May 7.—
“A spendthrift sweetheart and an ex-
traYagant wife have ruined many
lives,” declared the Rev. T. W. Stout
in a sermon in Calvary Methodist
Church. “Young women can help to
form high moral standards among
the boys by not permitting great ex
penditures upon themselves/’ Mr.
Stout’s subject was. “How to Live
Without Working.”
“There are ways to live without
work, but all such have drawbacks,”
he said. "You can loaf, but that soon
plays out; you can beg. but artistic
begging is more *• r.uous than labor;
stealing is a non method, but
that ends in prist.n some time. Gam
bling attracts many lovers of ease,
but good name and business success
are hazarded. White slavery is pos
sible. It begins with street corner
mashing and ends in blood money and

Makes Kidney Troubles, Blad

| If you suffer with baekaching
i kidney trouble, have disagreeable
[ bladder and urinary disorders, or
• are tortured with rheumatism.
| iff joints, and its heart wrenching
i pains, the new ‘discovery, Croxone.
| will quickly and surely relieve all
such troubles.
Croxone is the most wonderful
remedy yet devised for ridding the
system of uric acid and driving out
all tne* poisonous impurities which
cause such troubles. It is entirely
different from all other remedies.
It acts on the principle of clean
ing out the poisons and removing
the cause.
It soaks right in through the
walls, membranes and linings, like
water in a sponge, neutralizes, dis
solves. and makes the kidneys sift
out and filter away all the uric
acid and poisons from the blood,
and leaves the kidneys and urinary
organs clean, stror>°\ healthy and
well.
It matted not how long you
have suffered, how old you are, or
what you have used, the very prin
ciple of Croxone is such, that it
is practically impossible to take it
into the human system without re
sults. There is nothing else on
earth like it. It starts to work the
minute you take it and relieves
you the first time you use it.
If you suffer with/ pains in your
back, and sides, or have any signs
of kidney, bladder trouble, or rheu
matism, such as puffy swellings
under the eyes or in the feet and
ankles, if you are nervous, tired,
and run down, or bothered with
urinary disorders. Croxone will
quickly relieve you of your misery.

Prove Wiley’s Anti-Osier Claim
SHOP TALK
Gate City Has Scores Who Are
Doing Best Work After Pass
ing Three-Score Mark.
The assertion of Dr. Harvey \Y.
Wiley, former chief chemist for the
Government, made in the course of
a Washington address the other day,
that man has reached the prime of
life at 60 years, and that he has
reached the highest state of efficiency
after he has passed the three-score
mark, is proved right here in Atlanta.
The Gate City of the South has
scores of examples of Dr. Wiley s
60-year-old type—men who are doing
their best work, not only for their
city and their government, but for
themselves.
In fact. Atlanta is run by men who
are more than sixty years old, when,
according to the disciples of Dr. Os-*
ler. they are merely cheating the un
dertaker by living. Many of the most
prominent figures in Atlanta com
mercial and financial circles, the men
to whom appeal is made when there
is anything to be put through that
requires brains, energy and money,
are “old men.”
Many Examples in Atlanta.
Dr. Wiley says it is possible for ,
men to grow old without becoming
senile. The idea that younger persons
are rendering greater service to j
humanity, he contends, is erroneous.
Atlanta has a number of illustrations
which bear out this statement.
A man 6JJ years old is now serving
his second term as Governor of Geor
gia.
Atlanta has a man 63 years old
who is president of one of the largest
banks in the city, who is at his desk
every working day in the year, and
who has immortalized himself in the
eyes of Atlanta music lovers by bring
ing grand opera here and bringing it
here to stay. He is Colonel W. L.
Peel.
It has two bankers, Colonel Robert
Lowry and Captain James* W. Eng
lish, 73 and 75 years old, respectively,
who run their hanks with more en
ergy than is possessed by the average
young man. and it has another bank
er. George Winship. who is 78 years
old. and one of the biggest figures in
the city.
It has a 62-year-old capitalist who
is just starting another skyscraper,
and who says he will start another
wlfen he gets through With this one.
Number Are City Officials.
The city government is sprinkled
with men over 60 years old. For ex
ample, there is Captain Robert M.
Clayton, 68. and It can not be denied
that he is up and awake every mo
ment of the day.
The list could be prolonged indefi-
Atlantans Past 60
Still ‘In Harness’
Robert Morris Clayton, City
Chief of Construction, 68.
Joseph Mackel Brown, Governor
of Georgia, 62.
Judge George Hither, member
State Railroad Commission, 78.
Louis Gholstein, capitalist, 72.
Col. Robert J. Lowry, banker and
\capitalist, 73.
Dr. George F. Payne, president
of Atlanta College of Pharmacy, 60.
A. P. Stewart, Tax Collector, 65.
George Winship, banker, 78.
Captain J. W. English, banker
and capitalist, 75.
Col. William L. Peel, banker
and capitalist, 63.
Joel Hurt, capitalist, 63.
nitely. Atlanta has any number of
merchants, bankers, lawyers, doctors
and the like who are more than 60
years* old, and yet who are just as f
enthusiastic as the younger men, and 1
who can hold their own with them in
any deal.
And most of these “young old men”
declare that they are going to stay in
harness. None of them will admit
that he is tired of the hurry and bus
tle of business life. Colonel Robert
Lowry, one of Atlanta’s biggest capi
talists. president of the Lowry Na
tional Bank and head of the Atlanta
(Tearing House Association, who is
73 years old. expressed the prevail
ing sentiment among the Atlanta vet
erans when he declared: I
“I am proud of my age. Sometimes
I feel a little tired, but it is a bodily
fatigue rather than a mental pne. I
wouldn’t give up business under any
consideration. I don’t see why a man
should retire just because he happens
to have reached 6ft year#.
Going to Die in Harness.
“I’m a whole lot more than 6ft. and
I’m not ready to give up yet. I’m
going to die in harness, and there are
a lot more of the old boys who are
going to do the same thing.”
Col. \V. L. Peel, the man who put
grand opera in Atlanta and one of
the city’s most enthusiastic boosters,
is 63 years old, and says he is better
mentally than when he- was 40.
“If a man takes care of himself
and diversifies his work,’’ said Colo
nel Peel, “there is no* reason why he
shouldn’t be as strong mentally when
he is 60 as when he is 40. In most,
cases I believe* he is stronger.
“But, of course, if a man lets him
self get iifto a rut, he probably will
wear out before he gets very old. I
don’t think a man ought to retire
simply becausg he is beginning to
get old.”

Practically every case of pneumonia

[ Most colds are traceable directly to
[an inactive liver. You gut overheated*
