1t Must Not Disband.

The citizens of HALEY cannot at
ford to dispense with the services OF
an efficient organization to take care
of and use the free xtinguishing APP.
paratus:: yet if they permit the pres
ent company to disband, it will be d
long time before they can induce the
organization Of another. Every man
interested III the town should there
fore do his level best to keep the ex-
isting company together. Very little
is required for this purpose now, as
the company has good apparatus and
only asks to he assisted in erecting a
suitable building to hold their meet
ings and shelter the cart, hooks and
ladders, aud buckets.
If the company is permitted to dis
band, such disbandment will amount
to public calamity.

AlMlnOniOted Bread.

Ammoniated baking powders-that
is, baking powders in which carbonate
of ammonia is used as an Ingredient,
and which exhale all odor of ammonia
when heatcd-are classcd by many
eminent physicians and santarians as
superior to all others. Prof Hassell,
of London, who is recognized as high
est authority on the subject of food
hyg,iene, commends in the strongest
terms the use of carbonate OF ammo
mia as a leavening agent, stating
its g:eateshadvantage to be i'll its per
feet volatility, which permits it to be
by the heat Of baking entirely thrown
into leavening gas, whereby the bread
is raised.
The experiment with heat would
seem to indicate the superior, not the
inferior, value of such baking powder
The little heat that is impaired to it
when held over a gas jet, lamp or
stove, suilices to resolve the carbonate
Of ammonia into leavening gas and
throw it off. The first heat of baking,
therefore, will efTectually develop all
the gas, thoroughly leavcn the loaf,
and dissipate the gas-producing ingre-
dients of a powder of this kind; and
this is the highest test of perfect
baking powder. Where other aIkalies
alone are used, they are not infre-
quently retained unresolved, through
the whole process of baking, and re-
main an unwholesome Ingredient in
the finished bread. The carbonate of
ammonia cannot be used as a substi.
tute for cream OF tartar.-N. Y.

adjoins the old station ranch, but is
not a part of the same; and it was un.
claimed until Mr.. McMasters entered

The Train Several Hours Late,

At half-past two o'clock this after
noon the train had not left Shoshone,
and the railroad people here did not
expect it before half-past 5 or 6 this
evening-if then. The delay was
owing to the failure Of the main line

DYSPEPSIA.

Sedentary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudcnce In eat
Ing or drinking, and various other causes,
induce Constipation followed by general
arrangement of the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder Of each
organ increases the intirmity of the others.
The immediate results are Loss of Appc-
title. Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat
ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure
of physical and mental yigor. distressing
sense of weight and fulncss in the stomach,
and increased Cos!iyeness. all of which are
known under one head rs Dyspepsia.
1nevcry instance where this disease does
not originate from scrofulous faint in the
blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently
relied upon to effect u cure. Those cases
not amenable to the curative influence Of
AYERS PILLS alone will certainly yield If
the PILLS are aided by the powerful blood
purifying properties Of AYERS SARsAPA-
kILLA.
Dyspeptics should know that the longer
treatment OF their maady is postponed,
the more difficult of cure it becomes.
