says the Huntsville Item, that the

deavoriDg to organize State Liv-

among the agitators of the move
may be mentioned the names of
Messrs. r. S. Rather, of Huntsville:
J. T. Parks, of Bryan; Morgan Bros.
of Caldwell; Lusk & Parks, of Bren-
ham, and others. The principal OBJ
iect of the association will be to
adopt ways and means by which the
members may be protected. All
men who overdrive, starve or cruelty
treat animals, as well as those who
do not pay their bills, will be repor-
led to the association and such per-
,Bon will never be able to get team
thereafter. The organization also
has social feature in view which
viii be very beneficial, as the asseci-
alton will meet annually and the
members will thus have an opportu-
nifty Of beconing acquainted With
each other and more closely cement
ing themselves together. The move
Is q good one and If the organiza-
ton is perfected and results in de-
terring the patrons of even these
stables from cruelty to animals it
will have been worth the effort. The

Tricks of Trade

The danger to the public from the indiscrim-
mate use of the many lime and alum baking
powders of commerce has been so fully exposed
that everybody desires to avoid them. As
''forewarned 10 forcarmed." housekeepers will
thank ms for apprising them of the special
efforts at present being made to dispose Of such
powders i'll this vicinity.
The proprietors of some of these impure
powders are now going from house to house,
trying by means of trick. or so-called test
with heat and water, to show that their article is
better than the one found in use in the house the
object being, of course to supply their own goods
IN place Of those which housekeepers have for so
many years relied upon to puff up the morning
biscuit. and to make the light, palatable and
wholesome roll, cake and pastry.
The housekeeper will do well to be on her
guard against these baking powder tramps.
Every intelligent person knows that any goods
peddled from house to house in this manner,
or that are given away in samples or sought to
be introduced by secretly traducing the char
acter of other goods well known to be pure and
reliable, have no merits Of their own. and have
failed to find purchasers through legitimate
means.-( Baltimore Ne,cs)
