The Government Chemists Report On Raktns
Powders.


Powders.
The recent publication OF tbs report, giving
the comparative merits of various Baking Pow
ders, according to tests made by the Govern
ment Chemist, has induced some Of the manu-
facturers of brands, whose interiority was thus
brought to light, to resort to various means and
publications. in order to rid themselves OF the
results of that unfavorable exposition of their
iDferiority.
That the public may fully understand tho
matter, and to avoid any mice csption arising
out OF the statements OF our competitors, seek.
ing to break tbs force of the report, I here,
with subioin the main part OF the report, in
which the comparative values are correctly
given.
Dr. Loves tests were made TO determine
what brands are the most economical to use
Aud as their capacity lies in their leavening
power, tests were direc!ed solely to ascertain
the available gas of each powder.
1t is proper to state that all the powders ex-
amined were from the open market, and that
the original LABELS we're in every case broken

Masonry and Politics.

Speaking of the Grand Lodge
politics, Grand Master Taylor, of the
New York Grand Lodge of Masonry,
has the following to say:
So notorious is the evil, and so
disastrous threaten to be its conse~
quence, that no personal considera-
tons should prevent it from being
brought squarely before the Grand
Lodge No consideration of delica,
cy should prevent the Grand Master
from bringing the Grand Lodge face
to face with an evil which threatens it's
prosperity, and which, if not checked,
will endanger its confined existence.
1t is fact known to all, that per-
sons, past and present members of
the grand Lodge, make organized
and systematic efforts for the elec>
ton of themselves or their friends to
high Office, bringing to their aid all
the questionable arts of the profess
sional politician, and striving by ar
tifcial and unmasonic means to
create such sentiment for or
against a particular person as will
insure his success or defeat, before
the Grand Lodge as body shall
have come together. The Grand
Lodge is, in fact, deprived of it's
right to free choice of its officers.
Members are persistently solicited
to vote for or against particular in
dividuals, and their attention is
diverted from the dis
charge of the serious duties
which they are selected to
perform. The all absorbing ques-
ton has grown to be, not what
measures shall the Grand Lodge
take for the good of the fraternity
but, who shall be elected to office7
This unmasonic political spirit has
become intensified in consequence of
the more frequent changes in Grand
Lodge officers which have taken
place within the last few years
Formerly, when changes were less
frequent, time was given for any ex>
element which existed during or
previous to an election in the Grand
Lodge to subside. But now, no
sooner is one election over than
combinations are formed for the
next, and thus the fraternity is kept
in perpetual turmoil

Having passed several sleepless nights, dhi-
xfurbed by the agonies and cries of suffering
child. and becoming convinced that Mrs Wins
lows Soothing syrup was Just the article needed,
procured supply for the child. On reaching
home and acquainting his wife with what he had
done, she refused G. have it administered to the
child, as she was strongly in favor of Homos0-
pathy. That night the CHILD passed In suffering,
and the parents without sleep. Returning home
the day following, the father found the baby
still worse and while contemplat ng another
sleepless night, the mother stepped from the
room TO attend to some domestic duties. and left
the father with the child. During her absence
he administered a portion Of the Soothing Syrup
to the baby, and said no hing. That night all
hands slept well and the little fellow awoke in
the morning bright and happy. Tie mother
was delighted with the sudden and wonderful
change, and although at first offended at the de
eeption practiced upon her, has continued TO
use the Syrup, and suffering crying babes and
restless nights have disappeared. A single triai
Of the Syrup never ret ia led to relic the baby,
and overcome the prejudices of the mother.

The settlers at Rugby, Tenn, not
withstanding the frequent reports of
the failure of the scheme, are exhib>
iting staying qualities, and are be-
coming hopeful of the future. The
population is sufficient to support a
drug store, bakery and two general
supply stores. The local paper is
now published weekly, and is we'll
printed and entertaining sheet, and
is doing much to overcome the
drawbacks to the colony arising from
the Encouragement of the board of
aid. Rugby will have rival before
long in an Anglo German settlement
in Fentress County, Tenn, called
Allardt The site of this projected
settlement is about ten miles from
Rugby, and it possesses some ad-
vantages over it. A railroad is pro-
iected running from the Cincinnati
Southern near Glenmary through
these lands that will greatly increase
their value. Whether this railroad
will run near Rugby depends, we in,
fer from correspondence in the Rug
bean, very much upon the Rugby
Board of Aid. That such a railroad
would be profitable the vast amount
of valuable timber and extensive
coal beds leave no doubt For per
