The dwellers on Penobscot Bay and those
all along the coast, in fact, are anxiously
waiting for change in the wind that will
carry the ice out. The thaw Of last week
weakened it somewhat but it is still there and
there are small prospects of its going out
directly. The embargo is causing much
annoyance and expense to the people there.

Blood Poisoning.

Alonzo w. Buell., of Powers Hotel,
Rochester, n. V, writes: IS. 5. 5. is
the best blood remedy on earth.
cured myself with it. / recommended
it to friend of mine, a well.known
business man, and it made him
WELL"
"Please send me some more S. S S.
for the enclosed amount" writes Mr..
Robert Broker, of Nevada, Mo, 81
want it for my wife, who is very
sick, but we feel sure that, by taking
your medicine, she will be well in
two or three monthS. / wish to tell
you, and everybody else, that / am
cured through your medicine, and l
have gained considerable flesh during
the past two months"
Mr.. Michael Long, Jr., with the
Strobridge Lithographic Co., Cincin-
natl, O., writes: 81 suffered for two
years with a terrible itching and
painful sores OH my neck, arms,
hands and fingers. No physician
could help me. S. s. S. relieved me
perfectly, and I feel like a new man."
Says the New Orleans Picayune:
"The Swift Specific is renowned for
its wonderful cures Of blood poison
ing. If this medicine could only cure
local sore, ii would not be worthy
of name, but to eradicate from the
blood all impurity, even that which
is hereditary, makes it what is
claimed for it-a boon to mankind"
The City Marshal of Inka, Miss,
writes: "My son had suffered for
the past six years with an eruption
on his legs, caused from poison oak,
and cracking of the feet. Nothing
seemed to eradicate the poison from
the blood until gave him one bottle
of Swift's Specific. This entirely
cured him, and | heartily recommend
il to the public as sure cure for
poison oak" And here are two more
we'll -attested cases; Mr.. Arthur w.
White, who lives corner Of Carroll
and University Streets, Nashville,
Tenn, writes: "Three years ago l
was poisoned with oak vine. The
poison broke ont on my body and
face. One large bottle of S. S. S.
completely cured me. My case was
a perfect test of the power of s. S. S.
as a blood purifier. A friend of mine
had been cured of a similar poison
by S. S. s., and it was through his
commentator that l took it. So
here are two certain cures of poison
oak by Swifts Specific.
Mr.. j. NJ Dorsey, of the Exposition
Cotton Mills, Atlanta, Ga, was, a
year ago, an employee Of the Electric
Light Works. While employed in
the Electric Works his blood became
poisoned by the metallic elements he
was obliged 10 handle. lie says:
"Au eruption broke out all over my
skin attended with terrible itching
and distressing, sickening sensation
and a general nervousness, which
made me so irritable that often had
TO be held down on the bed, and l
could not sleep or eat, totally inca
pacitating me from working" He
put himself under the treatment of
various doctors, without benefit, and
finally took S. S, S. As TO the result
let him speak for himself: 81 have
taken four bottles, and to-day feel
relieved of all suffering. The erup-
ton OF the skin and the boils have,
for the six weeks passed, disappeared
aud the surface of the skin is in a
perfectly healthy condition. l am

The large amount of inert matter
or residuum in both the phosphate
and alum powders will be noted.
This in the phosphate powders is
largely of lime in the alum powders
it is chiefly alum. 1t will be graft
flying to the public to observe that
the powder in most general use, the
Royal, is also the purest. In COM
pairing the first two powders on the
list, for instance-the Royal and DIR.
Price's-the inert matter in Prices is
seen to be about five in seven more
than in the former, difference of
II 81 per cent, the Royal being purer
than Prices by corresponding fig
ure.
The carbonic or leavening gas pro-
duced by the powders indicates their
strength; and their true value may
be ascertained by considering the
amount of this gas in connection
with their inert matter or residuum
as shown above. The higher the
percentage of gas and the lower the
percentage of residuum the better
the baking powder. These percent
ages, as found in some of the most
familiar powders, are given as fol-
lows:

BAKING POWDERS.
OFFICIAL TESTS BY THE OHIO
STATE FOOD COMMISSION.
Analysis Of the Chief Brands In the
Market-Their Strength and
Value Ascertained.

The Ohio State Dairy and Food
Commission, under the direction OF
the Legislature OF that State, has
made public the result of its recent
official examination of the baking
powders of the market. As many OF
the brands analysed are in use
throughout the country, the report
OF the Commission will be found of
general interest.
The startling fact is brought out by
the report that of the thirty different
brands of baking powder analysed,
twenty are made from alum, a sub
stance declared by highest medical
authorities to be injurious TO health
when used in food.
The Commission classify the bak-
ing powders into three general di-
visions, according to their value:
LIST. Cream of Tarter Baking Pow
ders;
I'd. Phosphate Baking Powders
Sd. Alum Baking Powders.
The Commission explains that the
best baking powder is that which,
the ingredients being healthful, gives
off the largest amount of leavening
gas bread. A small amount of car
Donate of amonia, which is consid-
cred healthful, is used in some of the
cream of tartar powders to give
them a higher strength. The Com
says that alum is undoubted-
" a hurtful salt. The report ranks
