AdulteratiOn Of Dairy Products.

The attention of the public has been
called, in a manner never before
equaled, to the enormity of the adul-
iteration of butter, by the investigation
at Albany, and the farmers have quite
as plausible cause for riot and revolu-
ton over the undermining of their bust
ness, as had the citizens of Cincinnati
in regard to the disposition of Justice in
their city. The manufacture of lard
and oleomargarine butter, is, in itself, a
pursuit which, under control, might be
tolerated, and when allowed to compete
against genuine dairy goods, but when
it resorts to every form of deception to
palm off its authorizations and counter
feits upon the consumer, for what they
are not, then liberation ceases to be a
virtue. 1t is not in furnishing the poor
consumer with a cheap table luxury,
that should cause leniency, for dis
guised, these frauds are sold at top
figures, or excused as mandatory in
dustries, for they simply ''color" what
already exists, and by enhancing it's
price, rob the consumers. ADv CITY
matron could buy two pounds of lard
and one of good butter, and mix them,
the united cost being fifty cents, instead
of ninety to ninety-tive cents.
One of the subtitle effects of this adul-
teration of dairy products is to cheaper
the genuine article, and also throw it
into disrepute. Cheapcncd dairy
products means depreciation in values
of dairy farms and stock, and makes an
honest industry one of hazardous en-
gagement Food for stock shows no
corresponding lowering of rates, so as
between cost and net returns there is q
very narrow margin, which may soon
cease to exist if the law does not make
q clear, wide-cut distinction between
the genuine and the fraudulent, and
then maintain it by authority. The
time may come when competition
among counterfciters might, and prob
ably will, ruin their own business, but
it would not be any excuse for the laws
delay in aflording protection to an hon
est industry, and one that has contrib
uted so much to the prosperity of this
country as has been the case by legiti-
mate dairying. - CleUeland Herald.

Walking-Sticks.

"Of fashions in canes" said a
dealer, There is q large variety. The
style is determined by the head. Silver
has replaced gold for this purpose
that is, there are many more silver
headed sticks sold now than gold ones
The crutch fashion is the most stylish
looking. This may be made to repre-
sent a number of forms, and the latest
is a Holsters claw. Animals heads are
not so popular as formerly, though of
course they are still to be seen. There
is, in fact, an immense field for the eX-
ercise of ingenuity in the designing.
There are all forms of animal life to rep
resent, and large part of the vegeta-
BILE world to draw on. Canes that are
made now are the handsomest in the
long history of the walking stick,
though not the costliest, for at one
period heavy swclls used to insert
precious stones in the knobs. American
designers are as good as any in the
world, but, however, most fashions that
obtain wide sale, as the crutch, for
example, are of foreign origin. There
is wide range of prices. Fine, bullion
tipped sticks cost as high as $40 and
$50. Prices, however, suit every purse.
How is the sale? There is an odd
popularity about the sale of walking
sticks. 1t is spasmodic. Some years
it is immense, suddenly beginning and
as suddenly ending. The fact is, a cane
isnot considered an indispensable thing,
as it is in Europe, to be carried on all
occasions. At present the sale is
nothing like the rush of two or three
years ago, but fer the better class of
sticks it is fair. - Chicago Tribune.

Many people think that Rheumatism can
not be cured. 1t is caused by a bad state
of the blood which deposits poisonous mat
ter in the joints and muscles causing lame
ness, stiffness and swelling of the joints
and excruciating pains. Kidney-Wort will
certainly effect cure. 1t acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels, stimulating them
to a healthy action, purifies and enriches
the blood and eliminates the poison from
the system. Go to the nearest druggist,
buy Kidney Wort and be cured.

1t was bright idea when George
Washington was made the first pres

bright idea when Watt discovered
the power of steam. 1t was bright
idea when Edison discovered the

electric light was still brighter
idea. The establishment of trades
unions was the result of bright
idea. The abolishing of slavery in
the southern states was bright idea,
and so was the introduction of the
Thirteenth Amendment. 1t was a
bright idea to emigrate to the west

idea when n. X. Fairbank Il Co.

their famous brands of Lakeside"
