Hnn. Nm. L. Wilson.
The leading illustrated American

The leading illustrated American
periodical, Harper's Weekly, gives
full page pictures of Chairman Mills
and Hon. VIM. L. Wilson, of the
WAYS and Means Committee. Upon
another page appears interesting
sketches of each. OF our congress
man the Weekly says:
The new man whom the debate on thesfiils
tariff bill has developed is William L. Wilson,
of West Virginia. This Is MI. wilson's third
AGO looking like boy. He was only thirty
nine wears old, but he was graduate at Column
bian College when he was seventeen years old
He had served in the Confederate army He
had been professor at his alma mater while he
was preparing himself to be a lawyer, and lust
before he was elected to the Forty-eighth Tom
press he was chosen to be President of the State
University of West Virginia. The slight. short
stndent-like man. with a dropping blond mus
tache and mild blue eyes, attracted no atten-
tion at first, but he very soon and very firmly
settled difference of opinion about himself.
He came to Congress at the time when therev-
enue reformers proposed to make one of their
number Speaker of the Honse of Representa-
tiycs The content was between Mr.. Carlisle
and Mr.. Randall. 1t was assumed that West
Virginia was protection State. and that its
Mr. Wilson disappointed this expectation lie
voted for Mr.. Carlisle. and induced his dele
CATION to follow him. Then, as the phrase goes.
he .. began to hear from home" Old members
noticed the boyish West Virginian to smile at
the sudden check with which his independent
career had met. But when they imagined that
Mr.. Wilson wonld succumb to the demands
from home. they reckoned without their host.
He voted for the Morrison bill. andi in 1884 went
home to try conclusions at the polls with the
protectionists Mr.. Carlisle had discoveredhis
worth, and no Congressional election took
place in that year in. which the Speaker be-
trayed a deeper interest Mr.. Wilson won, and
in 1856 he won again: He has not spoken fire.
quently in Congress. but he has always spoken
well. He is one of the very best examples of
the scholar in politics. He is generously
equipped for public service. His recentspeech
on the Mills bill was surprise to the country,
but it was not q surprise to those who knew
him best. 1t showed that he was diligent
reader of the literature of the time. and that
he had the student habit of mind which leads
its possessor to investigate his subject to the
very bottom. There is no man in Congress who
asserts himself less than Mr.. WILSON, and there
are verys few men who have his power to
thoroughly master subject.

We have already alluded to the import
ance OF housekeepers paying more atten-
tion to the kind of baking powder used in
leavening their bread. This is matter to
which we cannot draw attention too often,
because il is something which involves the
most serious consequences to the generr
body of mankind. Temperance apostles
tell us-and there is ample foundation for
the statement-that there is disease, both
moral and physical, in the intoxicating cup;
and in the same way there is disease, slow,
perhaps. but certain, in the lime and alum
leayening agents employed in many of the
homes on this continent
No punishment Is too severe for those
manufacturers who place these poisonous
alum and lime baking powders before the
public with the assurance that they are
pure and wholesome articles. In the be-
lief of the truth of such statements such
baking powders are largely used in the
preparation of food and in this way the
poisonous ingredients are taken into the
system without suspicion Of their pres
ence. By and by come spells o. headache,
distress in the stomach. loss of appetite.
a fluttering of the heart; the child is seized
with an apparently causeless cough. The
coating of the stomach is destroyed, per-
haps: one of the vital organs is rendered
almost useless; the kidneys are attacked
with Bright's disease. The health of the
child is irreparably broken down; the
adult becomes a chronic invalid. These
are the dOings of the modern cheap baking
powders that are composed of lime and
alum, or that contain sulphuric or phos-
phatic acids.
In view of these facts surely all house.
wives should exercise the care that Is, we
know, now exercised by some in the selec-
tion of a proper brand of baking powder.
She who does not do so, whether tie
neglect is the result OF ignorance or reck-
lessness, cannot fret herself from the
responsibility for the health, perhaps life,
thereby endangered. No housewife need
be ignorant of the quality and composition
of the article which she uses to leaven her
bread, biscuit and cake. The official reports
of the government chemists, who are GER
tainly unpreiudiced, have been published
and show very clearly the quality and
strength of all the baking powders in the
market. The Royal Baking Powder,
which is accessible at every hand, Is re-
ported absolutely free from lime,
alum, phosphate acid, or any injurious in
gredient. Ii is further stated by the most
eminent authorities on food hygiene that
food leavened with it is more wholesome
than when raised by any other method. Its
use is therefore to be commended. 1t is to
be regretted that no other baking powder,
when there are so many in the market,
some Of which will find their way into use,
is free from all these substances. The Off
cial analysts assure US, however, that all
except the Royal contain either lime or
alum. The hOusekeeper who regards the
health of her loved ones should not only
order the Royal, but make personal exami-
nation TO be sure that no other brand is sent
her in its place.

The Qneen and Crescent Route to the
South challenges attention as having the
best appointed service of trains and the
fastest schedules of the day. The track is
in faultless condition, sleepers and coaches
are of elegant pattern, and few stops being
made by the Limited Express train after
leaving Cincinnati, no difficulty is expert
enced in obtaining accommodation of the
hi chest standard. The line penetrates the
ii hest mineral and cotton sections, and ell
route to New Orleans and Shreveport the
phenomenal cities of Chattanooga, Gads-
den, Birmingham and Tuscaloosa are passed.
A journey south, via Queen and Crescent

Major Bickham, of the Dayton Journal.
gives a capital specimen of his felicitous
way of putting things, in the following
paragraph, which is being widely copied in
the republican papers of the state:
Few distinguished public men so upright
and honorable In character have been placed
In a more embarrassing position than that
occupied by Governor Foraker. Absolutely
sincere in bis support of Senator Sherman,
his fidelity is assailed by Innuendo simply
because he is the most popular man in
Ohio. He cannot decline TO accept po-
sition as delegate-at-large if he desired to
do so, because hostility TO Sherman would
be imputed to him. and If he accepts the
embarrassing responsibility he will be ac-
cused of having accepted 1t to promote his
own ambition. His only remedy is to ac-
cept the honor that will be universally
thrust upon him, and accept the conse-
Quences. The exasperating element to him
and to his friends is the unworthy imputa-
tions upon his sincerity. The object of this,
of course, is apparent-to destroy him and
Sherman at one stroke, If possible. But
such de>picable tactics will not win. For
aker will 20 to the national convention, and
will discharge his entire duty TO his con-
stiiuents, to John Sherman, and to him
self, ard cover his mendaciOus enemies
with confusion and shame.
Some people seem to fear that, because
GARFIELD presented Sherman at Chicago,
and was himself nominated lin spite Of
himseIf) the same may occur as to Foraker.
Lightning never strikes twice in the same
way.
