brand. And here is their Justification most
glaring.
The slightly increased percentage of resi-
dunn in Cleveland's baking powder is due to
the large amount of pure cream of tartar and
bicarbonate Of soda 1t contains, and, consid-
cred in connection with the richness of car
bonic acid gas, the leavening agent Git con-
tains the highest percentage of carbonic acid
gas OF all the cream of tartar baking pow
ders), is another and very strong proof of its
superiority to the Royal. II is the percent
age of carbonic acid gas evolved by the bak-
ing powder in the process of bread making
that determines the amount of baking pow
der residuum in the bread. The larger the
percentage of carbonic acid gas in the baking
powder, the less the residuum in the bread.
Cleveland's baking powder contains more
carbonic acid gas thah the Royal; consequent
ly, bread material leavened by Cleveland's
baking DO Rder contains less residuum than
does bread material leavened by the Royal
baking powder.
The State Chemists analyses show the su-
peEiority of Cleveand's baking powder in the
four highest qualities of excellence:
lst.-lt is richer in cream of tartar.
2d.-It is richer in gas product, or leavening
power.
3d.-From its use there is less residuum in the
bread material.
4th.-It does not contain any unhealthful or
offensive ingredient-such as alum,
/, ammonia. lime, &C. The Royal con-
tains ammonia.
The analyses and comparison of the best
eight brands of cream of tartar baking pow
der show that Cleveland's superior baking
powder is the richest in cream of tartar, and
richest in gas product, or leavening power.
and, having no dnhealthful or impure ele-
ment in it, it is absolutely the best and most
desirable baking powder manufactured.

Commissioner

PoGA, Feb. 2lst, 1888.
Visitors-L.izzie Mauk, Chas. Allen and
son, U. B. Minister.
Sometime last fall n fellow by the name of
Fritz Markett, hailing from Canada, made
his appearance in Napoleon. He had ap-
peared in this burg before and had also dis
tppeard for Columbus under the guardian
shih of Geo. Daum, for horse-stealing, at
which place he donned the stripes and bars.
Shortly after his arrival, having blowed in
his crowns at disreputable house, he went
to board at Thompson's. Soon falling be-
hind with his board bill, the landlord took
snap Judgment on his trunk until such time
as he should receive his crowns owed him by
Fritz. Conrad being in town one day, Fritz
struck Him for job. Conrad informed him
that he had lot of wood that he would like
to have chor ped. A bargain was soon struck,
Fritz to chop and tend Conrad's stock. he
had now struck "ile." He stayed around
here few days until Conrad could get him
| fixed up. Having furnished the house and
| fixed it up comfortable, bought him an ak
and started him into business. He did pretty
well for awhile, earned a few dollars, paid
Thompson for his board and got his grips.
Things went along pretty smooth-Erltz re-
ceived an invitation to spend the evening at
neighboring farm house, Ga put up job).
After amusing himself and spending the
evening pleasantly, went home. Having ar
rived, he pooceeded to build fire to warm
up little The more fire, the more smoke
the room was filled to blackness. Fritz says,
''mine eyes run me out nit water" He
rushed up stairs to see if the pipe had parted,
found it all right, few down, looked in the
oven, under the stove, fell over a pile OF
stove wood, went out doors gasping for
breath. "Maybe mine schicken be gone, y
examined the hen roost, all right, came back
and in gazing around, discovered a board
over the chimney top and stick of wood on
the board. He then went for the "bush" and
cut long pole, came back and pushed it off.
Dem fellows make me bad schoke. "
Awhile after this he got in the calaboose for
being on a bum. Conrad told him if it oc-
Cured again he would give him the G. b. He
braced up for awhile, going to Napoleon on
Saturday night, got on a ''razee." Conrad
found it out and went over to his place and
cleaned out the shanty, and moved the traps
up to his brother Joe's place. During his
stay in Napoleon he kicked up trade and
sold Conrad's COW, getting fair margin to
secure the sale, jumped the town bright and
early next Monday morning. The purchaser
started out to get his COW. Stopping ut Joe
Miller's he enquired about the COW, was in
formed that Fritz did not own any COW. lie
seemed very much put out about it and went
back to town sadder if not a wiser man
Conrad is not much out on him.

The platform adopted by the Young
Mems Democratic Club of Massachu-
setts is model of brevity, good sense,
and good politics. Following are the
principal planks in the platform:
|. The functions of the general Gov
ernment should be strictly confined to
the powers conferred by the constitu-
ton, and firm resistance made to the
centralizing tendencies of the Republi
can party.
.. The power of Federal taxation
should not be used for the benefit of in
dividual or Class interests.
3. No more revenue should be raised
than is required for the efficient and
economical administration of the Gov
ernment.
1t will be seen by the above that the
Democracy of Massachusetts,, although
that is large manufacturing State, are
wide-awake on the important subject
of tariff reform, and are too intelligent
to be deceived by the lying cry of "free
trade"
