OUR BREAD.

The machinery of the law has not been put to work
too speedily against the fraudulent use of ammonia and
alum in Baking Powders. Both health and the pocket of
the people are demanding protection. The legislatures of
New York, Illinois and Minnesota have taken this matter
of adulteration up, and especially that of Baking Powders.
1t will be in the interest of public health when their sale
is made a misdemeanor in every State in the UNION, and
the penalties of the law are rigidly enforced. There is no
article of human food more wickedly adulterated than that
of Baking Powder.
Oh. Prices Cream Baking Powder is the only pure
cream of tartar powder having a general sale that is free
from ammonia, alum or faint of any kind of impurfty. 1t

Strengthening Cast Iron.

Some Of the most prominent iron
founders are introducing a new and sim.
pie practice in order to secure stronger
castings, the method in question consist,
ing in placing thin sheets of wrought
iron in the center of the mold previous
to the operation Of casting. This method
was first resorted to, it appears, in the
casting Of thin plates for the ovecs of
cooking stoves, it being found that q
sheet of thin iron in the center Of a quar-
ter inch oven plate rendered it practi-
cally unbreakable by fire.
This result has led to the process be-
ing now applied to the casting of large
iron pipes, a core Of sheet iron ilnparting
additional strength and lessening the
liability to any fracture. AS an evil
Ndence Of the additional strength capable
of being impaired by this means, it is
stated that a plate Of iron one-fourth of
an inch thick, cast with a perforated
sheet of 21-wire gauge wrought iron in
the center, possessed six times the
strength of a similar cast plate with no
core. The quarter inch plate had the
strength of 4 plate one inch thick.-New

a Word About Dress Goods and
What Is to Be Worn.

1t is safe to say that Dress Goods
is a subject that is now agitating the
minds of the trading public in view
Of the approaching autumn season.
Doubtless many are perusing the
leading fashion magazines and &C.
G~uainting themselves with the best
information as to what will be worn,
the cost Of the goods, etc, so that
good taste and economy will be hap
PLY blended. Adaptability is one Of
the prerequisites Of dress. Ofcourse
what would suit one lady would not
suit another. This idea has been
fully carried out in the selection Of
our Dress Goods for the fall trade.
Attend our opening on Monday, Sep
tember 81, and see if the correct
things in Dress Goods VIII not be

Ten Dozen Bananas for a Cent.

A lively banana war took place the
other afternoon between two rival de-
partment stores on.State street, Chicago.
Each store had purchased a carload of
bananas to use in a special bargain sale.
1t was accidental that the purchases
were made at the same time. One store
opened out by selling a dozen bananas
for cent. The other offered three dozen
for a cent, and the rivalry waxed hotter,
until for an hour nice bananas were sold
at ten dozen for n cent. Both stores
closed out their stocks. Many fruit ven
ders were among the customers at the
latter part of the sale.-Philadelphia

Seen During q Shower.

a phenomenon was presented in the
electric shower which passed over Lee
Friday evening. A huge bank Of clouds
advanced rapidly from the northwest,
the edge rolling and stretching in a
straight line from northeast to south
west until half of the heavens seemed
covered with a monster blanket, when a
brilliant fire red light appeared in the
northwest directly over the upper part
of the. village. Everybody thought it
was a fire caused by lightning. The ap-
parent flame grew rapidly, and shone
upon the black clouds above, and many
hurried up town. In five minutes it had
spread to an extent which showed it to
be a freak of the elements. The shower
which followed was not severe, and gave
rise to the explanation by the wise ones
that the unusual sight was caused by
the setting sun shining through a thin
but compact body of falling water

How 1t Feels to Ha

How 1t Feels to Have a Bug in Ones Ear.
"a bug in his ear" is a figure very e
tensively used in common conversation.
But, reader, did you ever have a bug in
your ear in fact? If not, you have no
idea how it feels. 3. T. Tomlinson, who
experienced the sensation, says he never
suffered such torture in his life. The
bug crawled into his ear while he was
lying in bed asleep, between II and IL
o'clock one night. 1t was only a COM
mon candlebug or fly, but the degree of
torture one of them can infict while in
the ear is beyond the scope of the imagi-
nation. Mr.. Tomlinson said that when
he awoke he dreamed that a railway
train had jumped the track, struck him
in the ear and was blowing it's way
through his head. The train kept going,
but it seemed that it would never get
through.
Occasionally it would stop and then
start again with renewed force. Then
again the train seemed to be at a stand
still, but the wheels would be turning
with lightning rapidity. The train
would move off gradually with a grating
noise, and would not stop till the whistle
blew for the next station or it ran off the
track or cOllided with another train,
which frequently occurred. Mr.. Tom
linson stood the torture till daylight,
when he sent for adoctor, who succeeded
in fishing out the bug, which in the
meantime had died. Mr.. Tomlinson
said that if the bug had remained in his
ear IN hour longer he would have been
a raving maniac.-Mexico (Mo.} Intelli-
gencer.

seen high up in the piers that divide the
nave from the chancel. This is the door
that once gave access from the winding
stair within the pier to the footway on
the top of the screen with which most
churches were once provided. When
screens were found in~convenient and
were removed, these doors were left.

STAYING THE HAND OF DEATH.

There Is Said to Be a Certain and Rapid
Means of Resuscitation.
Colonel Henry Elsdale, of the Royal
engineers, claims to have discovered a
certain and rapid means of resuscitating
persons from the effects of su~ffocation.
A sapper among the men under his COM
mand at Chatham was one day found
enveloped in the folds of a half empty
. war balloon. The coal gas with which
it had been inflated had ~suffocated him,
and to all appearances he was a dead
man. But efforts were made to restore
him, though the pulseless heart and ca
daverous face Of the man gave no en-
couragement to persevere. In a mo-
ment Of something like inspiration it
occurred to Colonel Elsdale to send for
some tubes of compressed oxygen, which
had been prepared for the o~xyhydrogen
light.
This pure oxygen, at a very high pres
sure, was hurriedly conveyed into the
mouth Of the PROSTATE sapper by means
of inserting the nozzle of the valve be-
tween his teeth, and the supply was
"gently turned on" to the smallest ex-
tent. The effect was absolutely instan-
famous. In IN instant he opened his
eyes and seized the nozzle between his
teeth. In short, the sapper was not only
thoroughly revived within a few min
utes, but in half an hour -;alked away,
quite well, to the barracks, and refused
to go to the military hospital, as was
suggested by his commanding officer.
OF course the objection will be raised
that everybody has not tubes of pure
oxygen at high pressure in readiness to
apply to such cases. Happily oxygen in
quantities as large as those administered
is not needed, and it can be stored ''in
small, strong bottles maCSA the finest
steel, with a valve giving an absolute
hermetic seal"
These vessels may be as small as a
soda water bottle, and may be made part
of the medical stock of every doctor.
Oxygen at any degree of compression
required can, in fact, now be obtained,
and the whole apparatus for restoring
vitality can be packed in a small box
quite portable.
What possibilities may not such a dis
covery as that to which we have drawn
attention involye! 1t is equally availa-
BILE, we are assured, for those persons
who have been asphyxiated by choke
damp in coal mines, or by ordinary coal
gas. Ihople apparently drowned, and
those insensible from long exposure in
the rigging Of a ship, might also be saved
from an untimely end by what Colonel
Elsdale calls "a dose of oxygen"
1t would probably be invaluable, too,

charcoal, or in cases where chloroform
had operated injuriously on a weak
heart. Such a discovery should at once
occupy the attention of the Royal Col
legc Of Physicians, with a view of ascer-
tanning whether Colonel Elsdale has
overrated the beneticient effects to be an
ticipated from the administration Of
pure oxygen.-London Chronicle.
