soeus BAKING rowDEs TESTS.

Rather Ingenious but not less fraudu-
lent are the pretended tests of baking
powders being made in many Of our
kitchens by agents who are trying to
further the sale Of Chicago articles.
These so.called tests consist in mixing
separately, with water, sample OF the
baking powder found In the house and Of
that carried by the agent. From that
found In the house, u pure article, the
bubbles or gas will rise and burst on top
like those from glass OF champagne.
The Chicago baking powder which they
carry when mixed with water, win show
an extra froth upon the top ofthe mixture
which is claimed as evidence Of superior
ity. On the contrary, however, It is not
only the exhibition Of a trick, but is abb
solute proof that the baking powder
which go acts is sadulterated. The chemists
have ascertained that the adulterant used
is chemical added for the express pur.
pose OF producing this action and deceiv-
ing housekeepers as to the true value of
the baking powder. This is not only q
dishonest trick, but q dirty one, for the
chemical Is the product OF the filthy
refuse of the slaughter house. and II this
| baking powder is used In the preparation
| of food passes into the biscuit or cake
without change. OF course, any state.
| ments made In reference to other baking
powders, by parties caught in practising
such tricks as these for the purpose of
deceiving the public, will be entitled to
| no credit.
1t Is probably wisest In the interest OF
our families, and to prevent our food
from being contaminated by tramps OF
this kind, to turn all persons who wish
or attempt.to tamper with It unceremoni.
ously from the door, and to use those
articles only which experience has proved
satisfactory, or the official tests have es.
tablished as pure and wholesome.

From Quaint Old Nantucket.

Apropos of Nantucket, one hears some
rather odd sayings and Of some quaint
happenings there.
"You see, we arc somewhat ont of the
way" said one of the islanders; 80
tramps seldom trouble us, and it is only
when our summer visitors come that we
think of locking our doors al night"
Last fall a man was tried for petty lar
ceny, and sentenced by the Judge to
three months in Jail. A few days after
the trial the judge, accompanied by the
sheriff, was ON his way to the Boston
boat when they passed a man saving
wood.
The sawyer stopped his work, touched
his hat and said; Good morning,
judge"
The Judge looked at him a moment,
passed on a short distance, then turned
to glance backward, with the question
''Why, sheriff, isn't that the man | sem
fenced to three months in iailr"
IVES" replied the sheriff. hesitatingly,
''yes, that's the man; but you-you see,
Judge, we-we haven't any n in jail
now, and we thought it a useless expense
to hire somebody to keep the Jail for
three months Just for this n man; so l
gave him the Jail key, and told him that
If he'd sleep there nights it would be all
right. "-R. A. Mari in Harpe's Maya

Not q Pleasant Resort.

When an invalid goes to the Carlsbad
Spa or cure, in Germany, he is informed
upon his arrival that the spa Is not a
pleasure resort. There are rules Of habit
and diet that must be observed. All
guests Of the spa must arise at a certain
hour in the morning. At Q a. m. there
lisa grand promenade concert. Full dress
is required upon this occasion. One hour
and a half later is the breakfast hour.
The fare is Of the simplest Should Q
patient grow restless consequent upon the
meagerness Of the menu, and indulge in
forbidden luxuries, the physicians of the
cure fatty refuse to longer treat him. He
is practically banished from the spa The
whole thing is, of couzle, under govern
ment control. A most careful diagnosis
is made Of each arriving patient. IL so
be it that his ailment is not one TO be
benefited by the waters, the patient is
told so. l can recall an instance Of a st.
Louis grain merchant who went to Carls-
bad. When the examining physician got
through with him, he said: 'Ican recon-
mend but one place that will do you good;
it is the Hot Springs Of Arkansas. DIR.

Just to see something of the world they

One of the most valuable Of the non
metallic minerals is the hYdrous sulphate
Of lime, popularity known IS gypsum. 1t
Is one Of the most useful and cheapest
fertilizers, and is the source of ali the
plaster of paris so extensively used in the
white Flushing of all buildings, and IN
many other arts. Over 81, 100000 worth
was consumed il the United States last
year, of which twc-thirds was imported.
The rich alluvlsl lands of the Texas coast
region certainly owe much of their
fertility to this fertilizer, which has been
so bounteously distributed by the
red rises, past and present Of the river
system.
Texas has what are probably the great
est gypsum deposits in the world, except
those of the Sahara and the Andes; the
quantity is inexnsustihle and quality IN
impeschable. These beds occur along
the eastern slopes of the Staked Plains at
intervals from Delaware creek on the
southern border of New Mexico to the
Canadian in the Panhandle. No separate
scientific description Of them has ever
been written, except mention in few
works published before the war, which
are now rare and inaccessible. There is
no authority in Texas from which an in
curing stranger could obtain definite
scientific information Of them, the i'm
portarce and value of which almost daily
emphasizes the necessity OF an accurate
and scientific geological survey Of the
state, which would be worth millions Of
dollars to the agricultural classes o.
