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 "lost souls ” QUICKLY STOPS THE WORST BACKACHE Makes Kidney Troubles, Blad der Disorders, and Rheu matic Pains Vanish. | 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.

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.

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.” AT “JAG OF JOT Great Feast and Great Entertain- » ment Given by Atlanta Club, ‘‘As Advertised.” JULIAN IVI. RAY.
