Roseburg review. [volume] (Roseburg, Or.) 1885-1920, 1886-10-22
THE TENSION OF L1FE.

The following was an editorial in tht
Coast Mail last week, written by our old
friend John A. Gray. We know that he wrote
it, for no one else writes like Gray. 1t is
pre- eminently true. Bro. Gray you have
solved the cause of so many suicides.
A tragedy like the one recently enacted at
Roseburg is not without its serious lessons.
Modern ciyilation is full of enignas, and some
of them deserve the most careful consideration.
A few years ago we used to hear very many
prophesles as to the benefits brought to the
human family by discoveries and inventions.
Among other things it was claimed these pub
lie benefactors would bring leisure, ease, COM
fort and culture. The old burdens are well
Lifted now from the shoulders of men. Steam
does our railroading, grinding and manufactur.
ing. 1t is no longer required that weary feet
shall make haste to carry messages or climb
the long stairways, but words fly faster than
the wings of the wind, and elevators lift us
quietly to the topmost story. We, float over
continents in palace cars, and cross over
stormy seas in luxurously furnished apart
ments. To look out on the world as it now
is, it wosld seem that the hard work Of the
world is all done and there is nothing left for
man to do, but to be carried through life with
out pain on the noisless wheels and the gen.
tlest of springs. But the fancied situation is
far from the reality. The strain of life was
never so great. Overwork of both brain and
body, is slaughtering hosts of the brightest OF
mankind. Men undertake SO much. carry
such prodigious anxieties, take such desperate
chances, have boundless ambitions, that they
break down in helpless imbeciity or rush out
OF the wild vortex with the hand Of self-slauph-
ter. The wisest and best of modern men do
not seem to be able to meet the demands Of
the hour without breaking down. Herbert
Spencer, the philosopher is down with "nerv-
Gus prostration;" so is John Tyndall, the
scientist; SO too is Huxley. Multitudes, schol-
ars, statesmen business men, and even dis
tinguished members of the medical profession
are to-day afflicted with insomnia, with rest
lessness, with irntability, with unendura.
BILE lassitude, with horrible dyspepsia and
general disgust of life and its undertakings.
Nervous prostration is after them, filling
them with fears, driving them to despair, and
scourging to suicidal death. Could not we
learn some valuable lessons from the people
from the old world, who go through lie at
much slower pace? They do not rush to busi-
ness at the break OF day or continue at it un-
til late at night. They take time for pleas
nres for recreation, for social and literary en-
Joyments. Does it pay to live at such a ten
sion that to use an expression of one of our
most honored public men, who was forced
not long ago 10 go abroad, because, as he
declared, she had gone all to pieces with
general debility"

A. ]. Gross one Of our prominent young
farmers had the misfortune of losing one of bis
horses a few days ago, we can only extend to
him Our sympathy.
The young lad who took the turkey last
Tuesday night had better go slow or his name

stop.
tits rumored that J. E. Kerley has a new
process for cutting and polishing stone for
chlmneys and it is thought by one of the most
prominent men of Mllwood to be grand sue

Rumor says Rev. F. NJ Cup held divine
services at the Calipooia school house last
Sabbath to very fine audience, he must be
new conner in this part of the country as we
never heard of him before
Our school under the efficient management
OF Jimmie Underwood is progressing nicely

EcerUtHin1 Goes tcrOnO.

In the bodily mechanism when the liver
gets out OF order. Constipation, dyspepsia,
contamination of the blood, imperfect assimi-
lation, are certain to ensue. But it is easy 10
prevent these consequences, and remove their
cause, by a course of Hostetter's Stomach
Bltters, which stimulates the hillary organ
and regulates its action. The direct result is
disappearance of the pains beneath the ribs
and through the shoulder blade, the nausea,
headache, yellowness Of the skin, furred look
OF the tongue, and sour oder of the breath,
which characterize liver complaint. Sound
digestion and a regular habit OF body are
blessings also secured by the use Of this cele-
brated restorative Of health, which imparts
a degree of vigor to the body which is its best
guarantee of safety from malarial epidemics.
Nerve weakness and over-tension are relieved
by it, and it improves both appetite and
sleep.

What Baking po.saer Shall We Use.

lhis plain question comes home TO every
housekeeper. We all desire pure and whole.
some food, and this cannot be had with the
| use OF impure or poisonous baking powder
there can be no longer question that all the
| cheaper, lower grade Of baking powders con,
tain either alum, lime or phosphate acid. AS
10th as we may be to admit so much against
what may have been some of our household
gods, there can be no gainsaying the unanimous
testimony of the official chemists. Indeed,
| analysts seem to find no baking powder en-.
tifely free from some one of these objectiona-
Bile ingredients except the Royal, and that
they report as chemically pure. We find some
OF the baking powders advertised as pure, to
contain, under the tests Of Profs. Chandler,
Habirshaw and others, nearly twelve per cent.
OF lime, while others are made from alum
with no cream OF tartar. This, we presume
accounts Tor their lack of leavening power as
sometimes complained of by the cook. and for
the bitter taste found in the biscuits SO fire.
quently complained of by ourselves.
But aside from the ;nferiority of the work
done by these powders, the physiolooists as
sure us that lime and alum taken into the sys
tenn in such quantities as this are injurious.
They are not decomposed by heat nor dis
solved in mixing or baking. They 90 with
the bread, therefore, into the stomach, where
their physiological effects are indigestion, dys-
pepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do these
cheap baking powder makers use these things?
Alum IS three cents pound, lime still cheaper,
while cream OF tartar costs thirty-fve or forty.
The reasons fer the chemical purity of the
Royal Baking Powder were recently given in
the New York Times in an interesting de-
scrlption Ola new method for refining arcols,
or crude cream of tartar. 1t seems that It is
only under this process that cream of tartar
can be freed from the lime natural to it and
rendered chemically pure; that the patents
and plant Tor this cost The Royal Baking Pow
der Company about half million dollars, and
that they maintain exclusive control of the
rights.
Prof. McMurtrie, late chief chemist of the
Department OF Agriculture at Washington, d.
Co.. in the interests of commerce, made an ex.
animation Of this process, and reported upon
the results attained in the refined cream of
tartar. The following extract from his report
would seem to answer the question repeated
at the head of this article, and which is so
frequently propounded by the house keeper:
81 have examined the cream of tartar used
by the Royal Baking Powder Company in the
aapufacture of their baking powder, and find
n TO be perfectly pure, and free from lime in
any form. The chemical tests to which
have submitted the Royal Baking Powder
prove it perfectly healthfuI, and free from
every deieteTious substance
