the words: "The past rises before me

he added the following, with which
he closed: "A vision arises. l see our

Some Excellent Advice Regarding the
Various BraDds-which Is the Best.

Various BraDds-Which Is the Best.
''There are good vinegars in the mar.
ket; there are also those which are indif-
ferent, bad and very bad. The latter
are the more common. remarked a
member Of the health board to a reporter
the other day. 1.-THE best and most
wholesome are those made from cider
and wine. These retain suggestions of
the apples and grapes from which they
originally came. If carefully kept they
remain palatable for an indefinite
period; II carelessly. they, like every
good food substance, are apt TO become
moldy and unwholesome. From q gas.
tronomic standpoint, the best vinegar is
that which is made from red wine: next
TO il are those made from white wine,
cider and perry. The first is invaluable
in salad dressing on account Of its beauti-
full color; the second is most useful in
those preparations where no color at all
is desired: the third is available for all
general use, and the last comes TO thu
front whenever the delicious iargonelle
flavor is conducive to the culinary sue
cess.
''Below this first class are the vinegars
made from ale, beer and whisky. These
are coarse, heavy and often offensive,
They never, except in the case Of whisky,
are made purposely, but represent the
desire of some brewer or distiller TO
utilize goods which have been ruined by
careless treatment and which would
otherwise prove q total loss. The ale
that sours in the barrels and hogsheads,
the beer that begins TO putrefy in the
vaults and the wretched whisky which
is 80 full Of fusil oils that no dealer, not
even the lowest, will purchase it at any
price, are the raw materials from which
this class Of vinegars is made. They
cannot be said to be injurious, but they
are simply miserable apologies for the
real article. In England they make what
is called a malt vinegar from mashed
malt without %distillation, but by simply
allowing the sugar fermentation TO go 10
an acetic fermentation. II may also be
stated that there is nothing equal for do.
nestle use 10 a good cider vinegar, and
consumers should be willing to pay a fair
price for honest goods.
''By buying their vinegar from reput-
able dealers only there will be no diff
Guilty in avoiding such unwholesome
stuff az we herein expose. Below this
grade Of whisky vinegar, bad enough in
every respect, are the vinegars made in
the laboratory 10y chemical processes and
especially by the destructive d~istillation
of wood. Unless skillfully refined and
purified they contain creosote, wood tar
and other products Of the same class, all
OF which are injurious, many Of which
are poisonous and some Of which are
fatal 10 the user. They have one ad-
vantage, and only one-they are cheap.
They bear the same relation TO genuine
vinegar that myrbane oil does 10 bitter
almonds, glucose 70 pure sugar, sweet
ened dilute oil OF vitriol 10 lemonade and
lard oleomargarine 10 fresh creamery

IMPURITIES in the blood produce diseases.

curry or potash, is necessary 10 remove these
impuritIcs and TO restore the healthy tone OF

known 10 the world Is swlft's Specific (s,s.s.L
In regard TO its wonderful purifying and
tonic powers we give a few testimonials as
