We copy the following curious article, n
by Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher, from the ^
Christian Union: n
Bread is frequently mentioned in the ti
Old Testament, and was evidently r,
highly esteemed as that which g,
"strengtheneth man's heart." The w
shewbread, twelve loaves of which w:is w
one of the sacred offerings, placed in the tr
outer court ot the Jewish sanctuary, to b;
remain there untouched one day and
the next to be eaten by the priests only.
If the people were disobedient and stiffnecked
the Lord threatened to break
the staff of their bread. This shows p:
how important this part ?f their pro- V
vision was in the estimation of the pi
Jews fc
Of all food to which civilized or even n:
the semi-barbarous nations have turned si
for support none has been so universally n
in imp ;inrl thnnrrlit, on indisnonsablc as ffi
this, from whatever made or however tl
rudely manufactured. Many things ai
were used that we should decidedly ob- b
ject to if offered to any of us in place of s<
the wheat, rye and corn bead that we aj
are so well acquainted with. To this st
day, in countries, where our grains can- tl
not be raised or easily procured, the 0<
people find some substitute which they c
make into bread. w
Earth-bread is made from a white (j,
earth in Upper Lusatia, formerly a part Oi
of Germany, but now under the rule oi R
Prussia, and the poor of that region to Bi
this day use this bread in times of scar- B
city. The earth is dug from a hill O
where saltpeter was once manufactured. T'
When laid in the sun and heated it J/
tracks, and globules, like meal, exude 11
from it. These are mixed witli a little
flour and soon ferment, and it is then
baked. Probably there is some salt- C
peter or soda in this earth which gives \\
it lightness. Something similar to it is Ci
found in Catalonia and also used for Oi
bread. It is affirmed that in cases of ex- K
treme need man}' have lived on this ?
bread for weeks without experiencing ?
any injury. ~
Fish-bread is still used in Iceland, jj
Lapland, Crim-Tartary and other places p
far north. The fish is dried, then beaten
to fine powder, and sometimes the inner
bark of some of the trees of that region
is mixed with it, and then wet and ^
made into bread and cakes.
Moss-bread is much used in Iceland, 7and
is considered "very, nutritive. The J?
lichen or reindeer moss contains a good ?
deal of starch. The moss is gathered in "
the summer, thoroughly dried and 1,
ground into meal, and bread gruels and
pottage are made from it. It is some- ?
times boiled in milk or whey till it be- 9
comes a jelly.
Banana-bread. All classes of people
in the West Indies are fond of bananas,
and particularly when made into bread, jj
The ripe fruit is rubbed through a sieve cj
and then formed into a loaf and baked C(
in hot ashes or dried in the sun. Before C(
baking it is wrapped in some of the C)
banana leaves. It is always provided ]c
bv the people for long voyages. ai
"Plantain-bread is made Irom the fruit w
of the plantain tree. The 'ruit is about ti
a loot long, two inches wide, lias a yt
thick, tough skin, con'^ning a soft, ^
pulpy flesh, quite sweet, and soon be- b
conies agrecaole to all. The fruit is gath- a]
ered green, the skin taken oil* and the *C(
pulp roasted on a char coal fire a short n
time, then grated and made into loaves D,
and served up as bread, or used dry like jr
grated cheese. The plantain is very r,,
largely cultivated in Jamaica, and is a
native of Asia. No kind of provision, tl
it h said, could supply the place of plantain-bread.
The natives think it far 0,
preferable to wheaten-bread or the pre- a,
pared bread-fruit from the bread tree. uj
Cassava-bread is made from a root U]
called Jatropaniat, found in the Carribbee
Islands. The juice is a deadly poison,
and used by the Indians to poison p(
their ar#ows; but the bread from the rc
* /* -I j. .A.? *1 : l I
puiji oi me root :mt*r me puisuu uas 0]
been extracted is much used by the na- cc
lives, and also by many others, where w
the root is raised. We have eaten it at ]0
the South, and found it quite palatable. 0i
The root is well cleaned and scraped, jtl
finely grated, and then put in a sack made ]a
loosely of rushes. This is hung from a m
sross-bar over a tree, or two forked pi
sticks, and a heavy weight put upon Jt
the grated pulp, with a vessel beneath f0
the sack to receive the poisonous juice. et
VVhen the pulp is pressed dry it is like 9t
?tarch, and placed over smoke to dry it H(
becomes harmless. Then it is passed bj
through a sieve, and kept dry till m
needed. It is now called cassava. s0
When made into bread or cake it is vr
baked by laying it on hot iron plates, or ap
Dn hot earth. Tapioca is made from w
the finest part of this root, collected into
the irregular globules or tears, as the
latives call them, by straining the. t
tviiole mass while yet moist.
Sago-bread is made from the roots of T<
;he sago tree, which grows in the islands is
Df Banda and Amboyna in the Malay a
irchipelago. The sago tree is cut into II
small pieces, which are bruised and si
beaten in a mortar; then water is poured PC
over it, and left undisturbed for some T<
hours, while the pithy matter, which ar
is the meal or sago, settles. VVhen this v<
is accomplished the water is poured off, m
and the meal dried, then formed into hi
cakes, or fermented and made into fr
bread. Those who iiave visited these se
islands, and eaten ot the bread as made j ol
by the natives, pronounce it almost as j fo
good as our wlieaten bread. The trunk j lo
of a single sajo tree will yield 600 cl(
pounds of sago, and 430 trees can be ai
planted on one acre of ground, produc- pl
ine 120,500 pounds. hi
The Hottentots make their bread from lc
another variety of the sago tree. They hi
collect the pith from the wood, and tie w
it un in a call or sheepskin that has been or
well dressed, and bury it for several fl<
weeks in the ground. This makes the oi
pith tender and mellow, when it is
made into cake*? or thin loaves of bread, in
and baked under hot embers. Some- j af
times this pith is roasted, and then made | n<
into a porridge. The pith of this vari- Ti
cty of sago tree is that used in com- ai
merce?granulated by being passed ! ui
through a sieve while still moist. h:
The bread-fruit tree grows in the (e
South Sea islands The tree is about in
the size of a well grown oak; the leaves ju
are of oblong shape, sometimes a foot
and a half long, about as thick as a fig j ('
leaf and of the same color, though not
thn sn.rnp shiroe. and veinpd or marked !
iike it. The fruit is wrinkled some- I
thins like the trufllo and about as large ! jn
as a good-sized egjr-pla it. The skin is j jthin.
There is a core inside about the ; t()
<ize of a linger. The part used iis bread cc
lies between the skin and core, is very tc
white and very like new bread in ap- a,
earance. 'tp
To prepare the fruit for use as bread q
it is roasted whole or cut into small j,j
pieces. When baked in an oven it be- i,,(
jomes soft and is something iikc a boiled j t(
potato, though not as good as a tirst-rate ! \\
mealy one. !
The Otahoitans have three modes of j jjj
usine the bread-fruit. When ripe they j,
put milk or cocoanut milk to it. and tv
beat it to a paste with a stone pestle. It
is then mixed with ripe plantains, or
bananas, or mahie. ' Mahie is a pre?ar- ?
uti n of the ripe fruit kept on hand to
make or use as bread before another
?rop is gathered. The natives seldom p
[?at a meal without it. Europeans, j]
however, find it as disagreeable as C};
pickled olives usually are when first jj,
?aten.
Chestnut-bread is much used in tv
Southern Europe, particularly in Italy
and the island ot Corsica ic is mane j jj.
from horse-chestnuts, seldom, if ever, j :s
used as food in this country. | Jl{
Tiie skins '.ire removed from a peek of |
horse-chestnuts, and the meat bruised j U]
to a paste, which is then covered for a i u!
short time with water to destroy the w
hitter quality of the nut. Then it is ]u
strained through a sieve. A milky j ^
liquor is thus separated from the mass, | fn
which, after standing a short time, de- j 0j
posits a line, white powder. When tj.
tlried an-4 ground into flour it is without
smrll or flavor. This flour is then
made into bread without any other article
added.
Millet-bread is also much used by the j)(
Italian peasantry, and if eaten warm is
*ood. but becomes dry and crumbly
when eoid. When boiled and used j n
without baking it is nutritious, but in i r*
iread, unless oaten immediately, it is Sc
t'erv astringent and unhealthy. j Jit
ftean Hour is often made into a thick I TV
latter with water, and baked in a hoi I-i
kettle. It is somewhat used in parts of P
Scotland.
Ragwort in t:mes of great scarcity has *;
seen prepared for bread. The root |
when lirst dug up is soft, but soon hard- j Dj
.>ns, and can be kept in that(state lor i A(
fears without injury if left in a dry* I (ju
liry place. The root is easily ground jj<
Hid reduced to Hour, is then made into
bread, and when baked h:is an agreeable
nutty flavor. It is easily digested, and
when made into bread is said to he ol
more nutritive and exhilarating than ev
vvheaten bread. ce
Salep is used for bread in the East
idies, Syria and Turkey, and it iff said
lat one ounce of bread a day made from
i3 sufficient to sustain a man. The
tea in the South Sea Islands, the breadut
in Africa, the lotus in Africa and j

Celluloid. ;
Celluloid is a composition of fine :
ssue paper and camphor, treated with
jemicals by a patent process. A rather
jmmon impression that it contains gun
jtton is a mistake, which arises from
jnfounding it with collodion. Cellu- '
id, it is said, is entirely non-explosive,
nd burns only when in direct contact '

ansparent gum, and its color is a light ,
ellow-brown. It can bo made as hard
i ivory, but is always clastic, and can
e readily moulded into every conceivblc
lorm. With equal ease it can be
jlored in any tint desired, the dye runing
through the entire substance, and
sing, therefore, ineffaceable. As a close
nitation of ivory, celluloid lias made
reat inroads in the business of the
ory manufacturers. Its maker? assert
lat in durability it is much superior to
wy, as it sustains hard knocks withit
injury, and it is not discolored by
$0 or use. Great quantities of it are
sed for piano and organ keys, to the
lanufacturc of which one company is
yvoted.
So extensive is its use for this pur3se
that the ivory manufacturers have
iduced their price for keys below that
: celluloid, in the hope of checking the
mipetition. "It it only a question of
ho can hold out longest," said a celluid
manufacturer, " but we can make
lr own elephants, and the ivory men
ive got to"catch theirs." Within the
st year ana a half a branch of ceiluioid
anufacture has been developed, which
omises to reach enormous proportions,
is the use of celluloid as a substitute
r linen or paper shirt cuffs, collars,
c. It has the appearance of wellarcbed
linen, is sufficiently light and
>vihln Hops nnt wrinkle, is not affected
j perspiration, and can be worn for
onths without injury. It becomes
iled much less readily than linen, and
lien dirty is quickly cleaned by the
(plication of a little soap and water

Chinamen in a Sunday-School.
In the Sunday-school of the Reformed
Presbyterian church, in Clinton street,
Cincinnati, there arc about twenty-five
Chinamen, each of whom is provided
with a teacher. At a recent festival of
the school they gave their teachers the
Lord's prayer printed in the Chinese
on/l nnntlv frnmprf. JLJlfl in evfil'v
Chinese laundry in the city the prayer
may now he found on the wall. The
Chinamen say they repeat it every night.
The owner of one of the laundries haa
been trying to induce his customers to
call for their clothes on Saturday night
instead of Sunday morning, but he has
had some difficulty in doing so. Nearly
all the laundries have adopted the plan
of closing on Sunday noon in order to
attend afternoon service.

A Funny mistake.
The other day an old country woman droi
up in her wagon to a well-known shoo stor
and entering the same, thug accosted the u
bane proprietor: "I want to see them'e:
'Ninety-five' Rubber Boots advertfhed in f
the papera. I'm thinking they must be chei
at ninety-five cents, and I'll just take hon
two pair to the old man."
It was difficult at first to convince the o
lady that tho figures "95" referred to qualit
not price, and that the boots were 95 pi
cent, sterling pure; but when she was show
a sample cut open to display the interior, ai
saw that the soles were half an inch thick
solid rubber, and that the upper and legs we
double thick, she was contented to pay, n
ninety-five cents, but several dollars, lor
single pair ot the " Candee 95 Per Cen
Boots," believing they would be the chea;

storekeeper punched tho date of sale i
the legs so as to tlx tho expiration of tl
three months' warrant, and assured her
case they did not stand tho warrant, 1
would give a new pair free of charge.
