get the real PONDS EXTRrcr is to buy a
bottle with the Company's strip over the
cork, their name blown in the glass, and
and their landscape trade mark on the
buff wrapper. Any druggist who would
deceive you about this by selling you a

A quart of milk is generally accepted
as weighing about two pounds, but the
correct weight is two and one-liith pound
Though something depends on the
quality it is conceded, as rule, that
from two to three gallons of milk makes
a pound of cheese, four gallons of milk

deeply few moments, "is that you giyo
up all thought Of business for the day,
return 20 your residence, retire 20 your

Der OF clean cotton bandages, dip them
carefully in the water, apply them 10

replacing each bandage by fresh ono
as soon as it becomes nOticcably TO-

The Prohibition gain in Rhode Island
this year over four years ago is 1853. This
is not great increase, but this year the
third party must content themselves with
very small crumbs of comfort, and re.
sumo their patient vigil for right to pre-
vail. 1t would be hardly fair to expect
that Fisk and Brooks would poll very
large vote in Rhode Island this year; the
issue between the two great parties was
so clearly defined and SO generally dis
cussed, that it overshadowed everything
elsej also the way in which the constitu-
tional amendment has been enforced, or
rather the manner in which it has not
been enforced, is hardly calculated TO
draw many voters to the "whte stand
ard" of Prohibition. The party has no
daily newspaper to advocate its capse.
and very little activity has been shown
by the leaders and speakers. All things
considered, perhaps the gain Of 1853 is as
large as could be expected.
