For sometime past thers have been
frequent allusions in the daily papers to
the suffering and privation which are
said to exist among the settlers in Ram
sey county in northern Dakota. From
the press dispatches it would appear
that the dsstitution, caused by failure of
the wheat crop. ID general among tho
settlers In that part Of the territory, but
reliable information received from per.
sons who have lived In northern Dakota
Tor several years shows that such il not
the case. The whole trouble originated
with colony OF Russian Jews who
settled two ysan ago in the northeast
corner Of Ramsey county. These Jews
were of the same GLASS with their
|countrymen everywhere. They knew
nothing Of farming, were aysrse to it a.
. means Of liyllhood, aud preferred to
get their living by peddliug aud beg
ging. Ever after they, settled there they

county seat, with demands for aid, and
whom the early frost came this fall. kill
Ing the wheat in tho. milk. they made
this-sxcuse for going tp the county
officials and demanding support at the
county expense. This was denied them,
but they hung about until they got q
certificate that they we're in want,
under plea that they wanted to send
some Of their number east with it to
raise money among their ooGntrymen.
They collected what money they could,
and sent the statement Of dsstitution
broad cast over the country. The dis
turbance thus caused has been q great
annoyance to the thrifty, self-raliant
settlers Of the county, the crest majority
of whom are able to take care Of Them
selves aud would not accept aid on
any conditions. The real character of
these Jews WAS 80 we'll known that
responsible loan agents at Grand Forks
and elsewhere refused to advance them
money.
1t il true that the severe early frost
caused serious damage to the spring

compensation, for it Is estimated that

What Is TRUTH

This question was asked by certain
Roman governor two thousands years

from that day to this have puzzled
their brains oyer this question, without
the world being any the wiser for 1t.

that for all classes Of travellers 1.-THE

Thus shall your limbs stiffen-your

an end to all thoughtless mirth, all

A QUESTION OF HEAL TIL.
WHAT BAKING POWDER SHALL WE USE ?

WHAT BAKING POWDER SHALL WE USE
This plain question comes home to
every housekeeper. We all desire
pure and wholesome food, and this
cannot be had with the use OF i'm,
pure or poisonous baking powder.
There can be no longer question
that all the cheaper, lower grades of
baking powders contain either alum,
lime or phosphatic acid. As loath as
we may be to admit SO much against
what may have been some of our
household gods, there can be no gain
saying the unanimous testimony of
the official chemists. Indeed, analy-
SITS seem to find no baking powder
entirely free from some one of these
Objectionable ingredients except the
Royal, and that they report rs chem
ically pure. We find some of the
baking powders advertised as pure,
to contain, under the tests ofProfes-
sors Chandler. Habrshaw and 9th
ers, nearly twelve per cent. of lime,
while Others are made from aium
with no cream OF tartar. This We
presume, accounts for their lack ~
leavening power ~ sometimes com
planned of by the cook, and for the
bitter taste found in the biscuits SO
frequently complained fby ourseiy
e..
Bat aside from the inferiority Of
tie work done by these powders. the
physicians assure us that lime and
alum taken into the system in such
quantities as this are injurion~. Their
plly -iologicai effects are ind gestion,
dyspepsia or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why
do these cheap baking powder ma
kers use these things? Alum is
