Cleveland the Greatest Man.

Sunday last was Childrens' Day at
Mt. Pleasant or Vinegar Hill NJ. f.
Church. The minister was exercis
ing the Sunday School class in les
son on the black board. He had
written word which contained the
letter c near the middle, which was
made conspicuously large. The
children were asked to name the
most prominent letter which they
did. The demonstrater continuing
said the letter G is the initial of the
name of the greatest man that was
ever in this world. He did more for
the benefit and happiness of mankind
than any man that ever lived. Now
who can tell me the name of that
great man. One bright little fellow
sung out "Clcaveland, SIR" That
boy will organize the future primary
and take leading part in making
up the political slate.

about four o'clock Tuesday after.
noon near Sir Johns Run. Major
Anderson, the clerk in charge of
the car, missed Weaver, who went
out to the door to take off the pouch
swinging from tie crane at Green
Capon, w. Va. When Major Amber
son went to the door he found the
body of Weaver, which bad fallen
into the car. He thinks that when
Weaver went out to get the pouch.
he found it jammed in the crane.
and in trying to pull it out got
caught and struck his head against a
bridge three hundred yards east
Major Anderson stopped the train.
and after getting the pouch, brought
the body to Camden Station and

with profound sorrow by large

THE BURLINGTON"

The Burlington does not glory in
the success achieved over a large body
Of intelligent meu, who were misled
by few so called chiefs. 1t was a
mistaken idea, hastily conceived and
as hastily Carried into execution, that
by sacrificing their individual pre-
objections they could, unitedly COM
pei gigantic corporation to accede
to their unjust demands. How long
would it have been before other and
further demands would have been
made upon the management? These
men reckoned without thei: host.
They argued that the Burlington
could not fill their places, but this
has been done, and the service re-
stored to it's former excellence. The
public need have no misgivings as to
the ability of the Company to ae-
all it announces as being
prepared to do. The strike was fail
ure from ITS inception. The response
hllity of persons and property is as
sumed by the Company, II you adj
mlre an institution that has the
courage of it's convictions, give it
your patronage. It now stands be-
tween you and the righteousness of
jealous competitors. The Burlington
System was in advance of all lines in
the Diuing-car Service.
To the Burlington is due the present
fast train service between the North
west and Chicago aud st. Louis. 1t
has been progressive III the past, sur
mounted its difficulties In the present
and il true merit, courteous attention,
prompt service and sure connection
count for aught, will in the future
carry the greater proportion of fair
mined liberal people.

The large amount of inert matter or
residum in both the phosphate and
alum powders will be noted. This in
the phosphate powders is largely Of
lime; in the alum powders 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
tie Royal and DR.. Prices is seen to
be about five in seven more than in
the fornser, - difference Of II az per
cent. the Royal being purer than
Prices by n corresponding figure.
The carhonlc or leavening gas pro-
duced 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 residum as
shown above. The higher PERCENTAGE
Of gas and the lower the PERCENTAGE
of residum the better the baking pow
der. These percentages, as found in

OFFIcIA- TESTS BY THE OHIO STATE
FOOD COMMISSION.

Analysis Of the Chief Brands in the Market
Their Strength and Value Ascsrtained
The Ohio State Dairy and Food
Commission, under the Legislature
OF that state, has made public the re-
suit 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 tho commission will be
found of general interest.
The startling fact IL brought out by
the repor, that of tht thirty different
brands of baking powder an"iyzed,
twenty are made from alum, a sub
stance declare by the highest medi-
cal authorities to be injurious to
health when used in food.
The Commission classify the bak-
ing powders into three general divis-
ions, according to their value:
list. Cream of Tartar Baking Pow
ders;
2d Phosphate Baking Powders;
81. Alum Baking Powders.
The Commission explains that the
best baking powder is that which, the
ingredients being healthful gives of
the largest amount Of leavening gas
and leaves the smallest amount OF
residuum in the bread. A small
amount Of carbonate Of ammonia
which is considered healthtui, is used
in some of the cream of tartar pow.
ders to give them higher strength.
The Commission says that alum Is
undoubtedly hurtful salt. The re-
port ranks the powders and shows
the amount in each OF inert resultants
which in using it would appear as
residuum in the bread, as follows:
