Peace ON Earth

Awaits that countless army OF martyrs,
whose ranks are constantly recruited
from the victims of nervousness and

boon is systematic course of Hostel

with reasonable persistence. Easier,
pleasanter and safer this than to swash
the victualling department with pseudo
tonics, alcoholic or the reverse, beef ex-
tracts, nerve foods. narcotics, sedatives
and poisons in disguise. ''Tired Ma

The large amount of inert matter
or residuum in both the phosphate
and alum powders will be noted.
This in the phosphate powders is
largely of lime, in the alum pow
ders it is chiefly alum. 1t will be
gratifying to the public to observe
that the powder in most general
use, the Royal, is also the purest.
In comparing the first two powders
on the list, for instance-the Royal
and DIR. Price's-the inert matter in
Prices is seen to be about five in
seven more than in the former, a
difference of Al 81 per cent, the
Royal being purer than Prices by
a corresponding figure.
The carbonic or leavening gas
produced by the powders indicates
their strength; and their true value
may be ascertained by considering
the amount of this gas in connection
with their inert matter or residuum
as shown above. The higher the
per centage of gas and the lower the
per centage of residuum the better
the baking powder. Thesepercent-
ages, as found in some of the most
familiar powders, as given as fol-

BAKING PoWDERs.
OalcIaI Tests BY The ohio Stale
FeOd commission.
Analyses or fhe Chlel Brands or
the C01nlrJ Their Strength
and Value Ascerlafned.


The Ohio State Dairy aud Food
Commission, under the direction of
tie Legislature of that State, has
made public the result of its recent
official examination Of the baking
powders of the market. As many
of the brands analysed are in use
throughout the country, the report
of the Commission win be found of
general interest.
The staEtling fact is brought out
by she report that of the thirty diff
fcrsnt brands of baking powder an
alyzed, twenty are made from alum,
a Assistance declared by the highest
medical authorities to be injurious
to health when used in food.
The Commission classify the ba-
king powders into three general di-
visions, according to their value:
LIST. Cream OF Tartar Baking
Powders;
I'd. Phosphate Baking Powders;
Sd. Alum Baking Powders.
The Commission explains that the
best baking powders is that which,
Heterogeneous being healthful, gives
of the largest amount of Ieavening
gas and leaves the smallest amount
of residuum in the bread. A small
amount of carbonate of ammonia,
which is considered healthfuI, is
used in some of the cream of tartar
powders to give them a higher
strength. The Commission says
that alum is undoubtedly a hurtful
salt. The report ranks the powders
and shows the amount in each of in
ert resultants, which in using ii
would appear as residuum in the
bread, as follows:

With the foregoing explanation
the study of these figures will read
lily give consumers a knowledge of
the comparative value of the differ
ent brands. To illustrate with the
percentages given the two powders
before compared: the Royal con-
tanning 11.s parts of leavening gas
to 1O.5 in Prices, it's excess of
strength is 13 in 1O.5, or 12.4 per
cent. Royal is therefore 1874 per
cent. stronger, as we'll as II per
cent. purer than Prices, etc. The
relative strength and purity of all
the powders can be computed in
like manner

Heroic Sacramento.

Under this title the San Francisco Call
says
The portion of the voters of Sacramento
who favor good government have sufficient
courage to make their influence felt at the
polls. Determined men stood at the polls
all day Tuesday, and assured the respecta-
BILE voters that their votes might be depos-
tied and should be counted. The roughs
from San Francisco in the pay of the bosses
could not intimidate these men. Turbu-
lence and lawlessness were met by calm
assertion of the rights of citizens to protect
their persons and their determination to
exercise their right. For once respecta-
bility was not afraid of being rumpled.
Metaphorically speaking it took off its
coat, rolled up its shirt sleeves and stood
ready to meet the enemy on his own
ground. The result is not only present
success, but it affords security for the
future The political bosses will be care
full about investing money in the political
management of a city that knows so well
how to manage itself The money invested
to carry the primary and to control the
election Tuesday is dead loss. In fact it
is worse than dead loss, for prestige has
gone with it. The French army which
preserved nothing but its honor was victori-
Gus in comparison with the routed machine
politicians of Sacramento.

A Temptation and a Snare.

Tell me not that there is no carbon
where | see the sky full of carrion crows
waiting and flying and cawing to each
other, and circling around some center
Though l see nothing / know what is
there. And when l see young men sur
rounded by certain harpies, when see GER
tain influences circling round and round
them, though | may not know one single
definite fact, | do know that the ravens
know where corruption is. They that will
be rich fall into temptation and snare. y
1t is a mournful thing to see men perish ;
and yet sometimes there is certain grim
pleasure in it. One cannot bear to see
Gods everlasting laws of equity set at de-
fance and no punishment follow. And
when transgressors are picked off in the
presence of the world, and they are shaken
and their bones rattle before men, there is
a sort of awful pleasure in it. And yet of
all the things that perish on the earth, not
the perishing of temples, nor the destruc-
tion of pictures, not the fracture of costly
marbles, nor the ruin by earthquakes of
cities or of villages, is half SO sad and so
melancholy as the destruction of the young
that are going down in our midst from day
to day.-Henry Ward Beecher.

How Men Die.

If we know all the methods of approach
adopted by an enemy we are the better en-
abled to ward off the danger and postpone
the moment when surrender becomes in
evitable. In many instances the inherent
strength of the body sutfices to enable it to
oppose the tendency toward death. Many,
however, have lost these forces to such an
extent that there is little or no help. In
other cases a little aid to the weakened
lungs will make all the difference between
sudden death and many years of useful
life. Upon the first symptoms of a cough,
cold or any trouble of the throat or lungs,
give that old and well-known remedy
Boschees German Syrup-a careful trial.
1t will prove what thousands say of it to
be, the "benefsctor Of any home"
