And well does it deserve the success attained, as
it is by far the best and cheapest in market. No
baking powder has ever been manufactured so
free from deleterious substances, and so exactly
proportioned that good, sweet, light rolls, his-

cess. 1t is always ready for use, reliable, and
requires but about half the quantity OF any other
in market. Will not spoil in any climate. Gro

THE MLNDELssOHN lQUINTETTE
CLUB announces one of their excellent con
certs to be given at Music Hall on the eve
ming Of November cath, and we take par ic-
ular pleasure in directing the especial atten
ton of our readers to the fact as one of the
great events of the musical season. This
Club has done much to advance the musical
quainted with the highest development OF
this sublime art and for long time had to
contend with great obstacles, with the sup
port OF very small portion ofthe community
in which they were organized-in Boston,
the educated few who appreci ated the per
feet in music rather than the powerful.
Now, however, they stand at the head of the
most popular concert troupes in the
country, as they have long since stood
among the most prominent musicians in the
world. Each member of the troupe is an
accomplished soloist, so that their ent IT IN
ments have q charm Of variety and do no
depend entirely upon their concerted music
this visit they will be accompanied by Ms
Jennie Busk, lady vocalist of hi h repute
in the East. Those Of our citizens who are
fond OF chamber music should not fail to at
tend their concert.
