The PreS6yteriGnS.


One hundred years ago, May oath, 1888,
representatives of dozen Presbyteries in
this Republic met in Philadelphia and in
stituted a confederation called the General
ACKNOWLEDGMENT the Centennial was celebra-
ted in Philadelphia last Thursday by the
Northern and Southern Assemblies which
are holding their annual sessions in Phila-
delphia and Baltimore respectively. On
Wednesday there was a grand reception at
a private residence in the vicinity of Phil
adelphia, and President Cleveland and wife
were present. The President made the fol-
lowing brief address:
SPEECH OF PRESIDENT CLEVELAND.
81 am very much gratifed by the oppor-
tunity here afforded me to meet the repre-
sentatiyes of the Presbyterian Church.
surely man never should lose his in
terest in the welfare of the Church in which
he was reared and yet l will not find fault
with any of you who deem it sad confess
sion made when | acknowledge that | must
recall the days now long past to find my
closest relation to the grand and noble de-
nomination which you represent. l say
this because those of US who inherit fealty
to our Church as I did begin early to learn
those things which make Us Presbyterians
all the days Of our lives, and thus it is that
the rigors of our early teaching by which
we are grounded in our lasting allegiance
are especially vivid and perhaps the best
remembered The attendance upon church
service three times each Sunday and upon
Sabbath school during the noon intermis-
sion may be iJksome enough to a boy of ten
or twelve years Of age to be veil ixed IN
his memory but | have never known a
man who regretted those things in the years
of his maturity. The Shorter Catechism,
though thoroughly studied and learned, was
not perhaps at the time perfectly understood,
and vet in the stern labors and duties of az
ter life those are not apt to be the worst cit
liens who were early taught what is the
chief end OF man.
Speaking of these things and in the
presence of those here assembled, the most
tender thoughts crowd upon my mind-all
connected with Presbyterianism and its
teachings. There are present with me now
memories of a kind and affectionate father,
consecrated to the cause and called to his
rest and his reward in the midday OF bis
usefulness; sacred recollection of the
prayers and pious love of a saiuted mother
and a family circle hallowed and sanctifed
by the spirit of Presbyterianism.
GOOD WISHES FOR THE CHURCH.
q certainly cannot but express the wish
and hope that the Presbyterian Church will
always be at the front in every movement

Proprietary Medicines.

4 visit to Or. Green's Laboratory, at
Woodbury.. y. J. has considerably changed
our views, and especially our prejudices in
regard to what are generally known as
STANDARD Patent Medicines" OF course
we are getting to that age in life when we
are forced to conclude Lie itself is a hum
bug, and naturally distrpst anything that
has not withstood long and tried experiences.
Being a physician | had the curiosity to
know how such a sale of two medical prep
arations could be sustained for so many
years. The perfect system upon which the
business is conducted, and the pharmaceu-
tai arrangements for the manufacture of the
two recipes with which we were made ac-
quainted, are sufficiently convincing to us
that the August Flower, for Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaints, and Boschee's German
Syrup, for Throat and Lung Troubles. were
for the complaints they are recommended,
most excellent remedies, and only regret
that in much of cur practice, medical ethics
prevent US from prescribing them without
making the formulas public. When we
were shown the great quantity Of voluntary
letters having been forwarded DR.. Green,
from all parts of the country and from all
classes of people, lawyers, ministers and
doctors, giving a description Of their all
ments, testimonials of their cures, etc,
feel like endorsing DR.. Green's suggestion
that the Government accept such valuable
formulas, and license them for general use
by giving protection to the inventor same
as patents generally Copied from " J.
Druggist CircHlar Of Oef, 1880.

QUESTION OF HEALTH.
What BaI.fng Po,cder shall ace Use

This plain question comes home to every
housekeeper. We all desire pure and whole
some food, and this cannot be had with the
use of impure and poisonous baking powder.
There can be no longer question that all
the cheaper, lower grades of baking pow
ders contain either alum, lime or phospha-
tic acid. As loath as we may be to admit
so much against what may have been some
of our household gods, there can be no gain
saying the unanimous testimony of the Of
fetal chemists. Indeed, analysts seem to
find no baking powder entirely free from
some one of these Objectionable ingredients
except the Royal, and that they report as
chemically pure. We find some of the bak-
ing powders advertised as pure, to contain,
under the tests of Professors Chandler, Ha-
birshaw and others, nearly twelve per cent.
of lime, while others are made from alum
with no cream of tartar. This, we presume,
accounts for their lack of leavening power
as sometimes complained of by the cook,
and for the bitter taste found in the biscuits
so frequently complained of by ourselves
But aside from the inferiority of the work
done by these powders, the physicians assure
us that lime and alum taken into the system
in such quantities as this are injurious.
Their physiological effects are indigestion,
dyspepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do
these cheap baking powder makers use these
things? Alum is three cents pound, lime
still cheaper while cream of tartar costs
thirty.fye Or forty. The reasons for the
chemical purity of the Royal Baking Pow
der were recently given in the New York
Times in an interesting description Of a new
method for refining argols, or crude cream
of tartar 1t seems that it is only under
this process that cream Of tartar can be
freed from the lime natural to it and rem
dered chemically pure that the patents and
plant for this cost the Royal Baking Pow
der Company about half a million dollars,
and that they maintain exclusive control OF
the rights
Professor McIurtric, late chief chemist
of the Department of Agriculture, at Wash
ington, d. c., made an examination of this
process, and reported upon the results at
tanned in the refined cream of tartar. The
following extract from his report would
seem to answer the question repeated at the
head of this article, and which is so fire.
Quently propounded by the housekeeper
"a have examined the cream of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Company
in the manufacture of their baking powder,
and find it to be perfectly pure and free
from lime in any form The chemical tests
to which have submitted the Royal Bak
ing Powder prove it perfectly healthful and
free from every deleterious substance. The
Royal Baking Powder is purest in quality
and highest in strength of any baking pow.

mas holidays found McLennan counts
in as prosperous condition Is greety
it this year. There is no bread stuff
to buy this year, thers being wheat
enough to make flour enough to last
till the next crop comes In. Oats
arc plentiful and cheap. Farmers
cribs are bursting with stores Of corn
enough to last for two years to come.
There are hundreds of thousands Of
tons of hay in the county on which to
feed work animals and stock for nearly
two years. The vegetable and fruit
crops were immense and the pantries
of thrifty housewives all over the
county are full and running over
with canned fruits, preserves and
canned vegetables, which will cut off
great expense from the next years
living. The sweet potato crop is pro-
digious and is being used to fatten
hogs. To all these great crops insur-
ing living at home and feed for
horses, cattle and hogs for year in
advance, was added a good cotton
crop, in fact a large crop The crop
was very late and Kind Providence
kept off the frost till the bulk was
gathered and new, after frost and a
rainy spell has sent bright days in
which to ripen the remainder. All
over the county as this is written
dusky fingers and white by thousands
are busily engaged in picking the
feecy staple and the receipts Of the
town daily are gratifying. All these
things are matters Of exultation and
gratitude to all but the croaker who
wants the earth. 1t is true that the
times seem hard but it is more in
seeming than in fact. The large bulk
of the money received for cotton this
year has gone east to pay debts, but
the farmers are getting out Of debt
and to be out Of debt with food and
feed enough on hand to make another
crop is state Of prosperity.
While the effect of the good crops
does not seem to pan out as it should
it will make itself felt all through
next spring and next summer. The
farmer will have no feed to buy and
not be obliged to mortgage his crop
next season in order to mako it and
will spend money all through the
coming year. The failures in this
city are no indications of hard times.
They would possibly have come any
way and are individual and private and
not public matters. From the out.
look, times will be fairly good all
through the spring and winter. But
suppose there should be another good
crop following the present. Then
things will boom, and that crop is sure
to come, for the season is in the
ground. The outlook is bright and
cheerful in spite Of present depression
and the ominous head shaking Of
chronic croakers.
