Mr.. BREwsTER's ATTIRE.

A source of great pain to the late
ex-Attorney- General Brewster was
to hear himself spoken of facetious-
ly in connection with ''lace cuffs"
He never wore lace cuffs. He wore
cambria frilishirt4bands in place Of
cuffs. Benjamin Harris Brewster
was not i man of great wealth, But
what be did accumulate was entire
~ due to hissnntiring energy and
splendid talents. When he began
at the Bar he was poor, and his ear
ly days were dark and marked by
hard struggles. During this period
he received from his mother some
shirts in the old-fashioned style,
with frilled bands for cuffs. From
that time Mr.. Brewster always wore
the same kind of shirt out of a sen
timent to his mother, whose love
and tenderness had comforted him
during his bitter trials. Another
popularity was his. white beayer
hat. He used to tell his friends he
wore that color because black made
his Disagreement more disagreeable
to the eye. He was never known to
wear any other kind of hat. De
spite his facial Disagreement there
was a subtle magnetic in6uence
about him. Once while staying at
hotel in distant city he was Civ
en- seat at Il table at which sat
party of ladies. They were compell
ed to retire, and assured the hotel
proprietor that while they had the
fullest sympathy for the gen
tleman they could not sit at the
table with him. Mr.. Brewster, di
vined the cause of their Withdrawal
and begged to be presented to the
ladies. This was done, and the law
yer whose reputation was rational
never afterward had WARMER admir-
ers. The magic witchery of his
tongue made them forget his APP
pearance.

of the official chemists. Indeed, an
alysts seem to find no baking pow
der entirely free from some sone of
these objeetionablc Nng sediepts ex-
cept the Royal, and that they report
as chemically pure. ! We find some
of the baking powders advertised us
pure, to contain, under the testsof
Professors Chandler, Habirshaw and
others, nearly twelve, per cent. of
lime, while others are made from
alum with no cream of tartar. This,
VIC presume. accounts for their lack
of leavening power as sometimes
complained of by the cook, and for
the bitter taste found in the biscuits
so frequently complained of By DUR
selves.
But aside from the inferiority of
the work done by these powders, the
physicians assure US that lime and
alum taken into the system in such
quantities as this are injurious.
Their physiological effects arc indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why
do these cheap baking powder max
ers use these things9 Alum is, three
cents pound, lime still cheaper,
while cream of tartar costs thirty
five or forty. The reasons for the
chemical purity of the Royal Bak-
ing Powder were recently given in
the New York Times in al interest
ing description Ola new method for
refining argols, or crude cream of
tartar. 1t seems that It's only; I'M
der this process that cream of tartar
can be freed from the lime natural
to it and rendered chemically pure;
that the patents and plant for this
cost the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany about BALI a million dollars,
and that they maintain exclusive
control of the rights. - - -
Professor McMutrie,p late chief
chemist of the Department of Agri-
culture, at Washington ID. Q. made
ar examination ofthis process, and
reported upon the resulted attained
in the refnek 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 PROFOUND
ed by the bousekeeper:
II have examined the cream of
tartar used by the Royal Baking
Powder Company in3the manufac
ture Of their baking powder, and
find it to be perfectly pure and free
from lime in any form. The chem
zeal tests to which have submitted
the Royal Baking Powder prove it
perfectly healthful and free from
every deleterious substance. The
Royal Baking Powder is purest in
quality and highest in strength of
any baking powder of which I have
knowledge"

what Baking Powder shaI We USE

This plain question comes home
to every house keeper We all de-
sire pure and wholesome food, and
this cannot be had with the use Of
impure or poisonous baking powder.
There can be no longer a question
that all the cheaper, lower grades of
baking powders contain either alum,
lime or phosphate acid. AS loath
rs we may be to admit so much
against what may have been some of
our household gods, there can be no

Breaches of Etiquette.

1t is breach of etiquette to stare
around the room when you are making
call. To remove the gloves when
making formal call. To take your
dog calling with you. To open the
piano or to touch it if found open,
when waiting for your hostess to enter.
To go to the room of an invalid with
out an invitation. To walk about the
room examining its appointments when
waiting for your hostess. To open or
shut door, raise or lower curtain,
or in any way to alter the arrange
ments of house at which you are a
caller. To turn your chair so as to
bring your back to some one seated
near you. To remain after you have
discovered that your host or hostess is
dressed to go out. To fidget with hat,
cane or parasol during a call. To pre-
face your departure by remarking,
Now | must CO." or to insinuate that
your hostess may be weary of you. To
resume your seat after having once
risen to say adieu. For a lady receiv-
ing several callers to engage in a tete q
tete conversation with one. To make
remarks upon caller who has Just left
the room. To call upon friend in re-
duced circumstances with any parade
of wealth in equipage or dress. For
the hostess to leave the room when
visitors are present. To assume any
ungraceful or uncouth position, such
as standing with arms akimbo, sitting
astride chair, smoking in the pres
ence of ladies, wearing the hat within
doors, standing with legs crossed or
feet on the chairs, leaning forward in
your chair with elbows on the knees
all of which acts denote lack of good
breeding. -Scottish american.

Grange Notes.

THE Grange Bulletin says: "Look
out for large gains in membership in
Ohio this centennial year. Nothing
but the greatest Indifference and
neglect can prevent it,"
THE grange is coming to the front,
and if the farmers can only be per-
suaded to be guided by its wise and
wholesome counsels the dawn of bet
ter day for our agriculturists will soon
appear r. II. Thomas.
OTHER things being equal, that is
the best grange which does the best
literary work and the most of it. This
is the time of year to stimulate such
efforts. See that no meeting shall
pass without proper work in this de-
partment. The social features of the
order will usually take care of them
selves. Let them not encroach upon a
good amount of hard literary work.
Lecturer (MaSS) State Grange.
WHY should not farmers organize
and cooperate as well as manufacturers
and money-lenders, for self-protection?
Can any one give plausible reason
why they should not? No, that reason
has yet to be formulated; then why are
not the farmers the great controlling
power in this land? Simply and only
because they persistently refuse to act
in their own defense, and permit them
selves to become the tools of politicians
and demagogues.- Piolette.
THE great demand now is, for a
more thorough devotion to all branches
of grange work by the individual men,-
bers of the order The officers of
national state, Pomona and subordinate
oranges are helpless without proper
support, and this must come through a
positive conviction upon the part of
each Patron, that they have something
to do in the upbuilding and perpetual
ton of this order. 1t will not do for
us to cry for help from others when
we do not try to help ourselves. Let
us, each and every one, resolve to be
up and doing. Time is precious and
our best interests are suffering by our
inactivity. Grange Bulletin.
THE farmers of this country must act
in concert if we ever expect to get re-
lief from many oppressive burdens.
This can be accomplished through or
ganization; hence, every man that tills
the soil has great interest in our order.
There is power in uniting action that
is irresistible when directed Alright, and
the grange can be used as medium by
which we may speak to our lawmakers
in manner that will command respect,
and receive fair hearing, not as a po-
litical organization, but from the fact
that the principles laid down and taught
by our order underlie all true states
manship, and if properly adhered to
will revolutionize partisan politics and
finally the political atmosphere of our
entire country. Indiana State

Marketing Hints.

1t is not always possible, however, to
take marketing lessons, and such help
as can be given without practical dem
onstration shall be given here. Fine,
well-fed beef may be known by yellow
ish-white fat-very firm, and of fine
grained bright-red lean. Very good
beef is sometimes not very fat. That
is to say, an excellent steak may only
have half-inch band of fat round it.,
or even less, instead of the inch that
the butcher is proud to point out; but
this narrow band must be fat, and not
gristle. Sometimes meat, instead of
being covered with fat, is covered with
quarter of an inch of gristle; at 9TH
ers there will be the gristle, but it will
have an outside layer of fat. These
indications do not always show bad
meat, only that it is second-class. This
is the case when the grain of the meat
is good and the kidney-fat firm and
good. Where the gristle is found in
conjunction with dull red, or, as we
may borrow term from art to describe
it accurately, darkish, terra-cotta red
the meat is to be avoided altogether.
To return to fine meat-the color differs
in different parts. The leg, neck and
coarser parts are, as a rule, darker than
prime parts. The sirloin is a rosy red
the rib shade darker, notified with
white fat, and without vein running
through it. The round is of a bright,
juicy-looking red on the upper or tender
side--(which is really the inside of the
leg and less exposed in the animal to
use and weather), the lower side" the
vein "-as butchers call it, is paler and
dryer. In really fine round of beef,
the blood will ooze from the grain as it
is cut. The best cuts from such round,
if the OK has been killed long enough,
surpass any other steak in flavor and
will be quite as tender The best
steaks are those which are cut before
the broad band of fat is reached, but
excellent ones are cut for three or four
inches after this, then the round begins
to decrease in size, and the meat gets
darker, the grain of it coarser and suit
able for la mode beef stews, etc., but
not for steaks.-Catherine O,cen, in The
Home Maker.

Polka Dots.

How many ladies who wear dresses
covered with polka dots have any
knowledge of their classic origin? The
polka dot, we are told by learned
correspondent, is copy of the ancient
chrysoclavus, or golden nail head, which
in early church times was one of the
emblematical ornaments embroidered
in ecclesiastical vestments and robes,
and later purple patch like a broad
nail head was worn upon the outer
garments by the old Roman dignitaries.
AT first it was observed as mark of
dignity, and claw of gold on rich silken
textiles of Tyrian dye could be worn
only by the mobiles. Imbued by spirit
of emulation, the wealthy then de-
manded silked stuffs sprinkled all over
with large, round spots; and so from
the sacred chrysoclavus, or golden nail
head, we have come in modern times to
wear cotton dresses covered with polka
dots

Sunday.

My good minister's greatly grieved-
it seems to me almost needlessly-by
the prevalence with which the word
Sunday is used to designate the Sab
bath. Though 1 think am able to I'M
derstand his arguments and appreciate
his feelings, | can not see why Sunday,
in its place, is not just as good a name
for the day of rest as Sabbath is. AS a
matter of fact, both words hold posi-
tons from which they will never be
displaced. 1t would be Dissertation to
put the word Sunday into the Bible or
into any place where, by right and a
common feeling of propriety, the name
Sabbath now stands. Still 1 think it
would be very useless, at least, to labor
and hope that the children of America
will not continue to say Sunday, Mon
day, etc. / think it a matter for iov
that, in addition to the grand old God
honored Sabbath we have our own
popular Anglo-Saxon-Sunday. Let it
speak of the Son of Righteousness
Let it make us thankful for our condi-
ton and helpful to those who are
heather now. Mr.. HEMLoCK.
