Candies.

A distinguished physician lately made
a deliberate statement at an annual
meeting Of the society, of which he was
a member, that there was no question
but hundreds Of children were slain
every year by cheap confectionery,
without the real cause Of their death
being known.
The article which is most used by
dishonest confectioners is what is known
to the trade as terra alba. 1t is princi-
pally brought from Ireland, and was
brought into use fifteen or twenty years
ago. Its first extensive use was during
the war, when cream Of tartar, bicar-
Donate of soda, pepper, ground rice,
and other articles of domestic use rose
to double their ordinary prices. Terra
alba was then worth about 80 to So a
ton. The demand has brought it up to
about double those figures. This COM
pound Is nothing more or less than
actual dirt In color it resem bles dark
flour Or ground chalk, and is Just as in
furious as If one were to eat the same
amount of ordinary clay or dirt. 1t
enters most into the composition Of
mixed candies. though this does not
imply that all candies of this sort are
adulterated with it, for some of the
choicest candies in reliable confection-
ers' stores are called mixed" and are
the most expensive.
The cheaper chocolate creams, of
which children are so fond, are made
out Of terra alba and glycerine mixed
together, the glycerine keeping the
earth soft and pasty, making it adhere
so it will not fall apart, and then the
balls are rolled in tallow to cool them,
with sufficient grease to allow one
pound of chocolate to go as far as
five OF six pounds would if properly
made.
The worst effects of the use of terra
alba are that the terrible diseases of
stone and gravel are caused by the in
PRODUCTION of the earth into the system,
and the large increase of patients suffer
ing from these diseases is attributed by
high medical authorities to the intro
duction of this terrible ingredient into
the confectionery and similar articles
consumed IN this country

Sarah's brother Bill was on Lafayette

looked bit lonesome, and a bow friend
added more burden to his feelings by
asking:

Dad hain't got no time"

There was long and solemn pause.

to say:

The Troy IN. " Standard says
"Joseph Waller, and his son Frederick,
who keeps a barber shop on Second
street, near Madison, are well known in
the lower part of the city, and are con-
sidered among the most respectable of
our French citizens. Joseph has lived
in Troy for many years and reared his
family here. The family have never
been able to live without working hard,
but by honesty and industry they push
ed themselves above the average of
mankind. A few days ago Mr.. Waller
received a French paper from Canada,
in which was recorded the death of a
John Waller, in New Orleans, January
t. The paper also asked for the where
abouts of Joseph Waller, who it is said
was the only heir of the deceased, whose
estate was valued at S15,000,000. Mr..
Waller thought the matter over and re-
membered that about forty years ago
his cousin, John Waller, left Canada for
the south, since which time he had not
heard from him until he read the no
tice in the paper sent him lately men
tioning his death. Mr. Waller procured
the services of Arthur Valois, French
lawyer of Cohoes, to visit Canada, to as
certain the facts in the case and to
prove that he is the Joseph Waller
wanted. Mr.. Waller and family have
become greatly excited over the good
news, and it is feared it will impair the
old mans mind. We hope the news is
true, and will soon know the truth of
the matter. Mr.. Waller says he is GER
tain that he is the lucky man. The
case will be looked forward to with in

As for me, the dream [ dreamed upon
the Pincian Hill. before the cross of
golden light shone over the city roofs,
was never realized. No rustic of wo-
mans garments makes low music in
the oak-paneled rooms no children's
voices wake the echoes under the aven-
ues of arching lines. The old Devon
manor-house stands as yet without a

THAT WISH.

1t was easy wishing well
To the merry peal Of bell,
Ringing in a bright new year,
Ringing out the old and sere;
And the evil stole away
While the world kept holiday.
If the kindly wish then meant
just the seasons compliment,
Gaily passed from lip TO lip
With the clasp of finger-tip,
1t eXhaled in one faint sigh
When the farce had all gone by.
If it were the overflow
From that mystic spring below
Brimming to the lips with cheer
For the journey of the year,
Brimming over cheerily
Every way in sympathy
1t will send rill along
Through the twelve months with a song,
Even if the morrow be
Clouded with mystery;
On through cloud and shine the rill
Goes its errand to fulfill.
And that errand is to bless
Hardest lives with tenderness:
Bleakest lives that mortal knows
Make to blossom as the rose;
By the pathway of the year
Rough or smooth. it purleth near.
