Pure Food in Congress,

A bill has been introduced into Congress requiring
baking powders containing ammonia alum to be SO
branded. The bill should pass; then if people dose
themselves with absolutely pure" ammonia or alum
when taking their meals, they will do it knowingly, not
ignorantly as they do now.
Such law would affect nearly every baking pow
der in the market except Clevelands-that does not
contain particle of ammonia alum Besides, every
Ingredient of Cleveland's baking powder is plainly

zoHEL AND aENERous orEER TO THE LApIE

People passing the corner of Smithfeld
and Diamond streets last Friday afternoon
between and O'Clock were attracted by q
large crowd in front of Saller 4 Co.'S cloth
ing establishments. The cause of the excite
ment was the winding up and sealing of the
lady's solid gold watch which had been on
exhibition in the firms mammoth window
during the past week.
Long before the hour advertised crowds OF
ladies had gathered in the store to witness
the proceeding. showing the deep interest
taken in Saller & Co.'S liberal offer. A news
paper committee, composed of Mr.. II. L.
Hail. of The Dispatch: Mr.. John Gribben, of
the Leader; Mr.. William Kohler, of the Beo-
bachter, and Mr.. George P. Petit, Of the
Post, had charge of the entire affair, attend
ing to the winding up, sealing. placing the
package in the window and all other details.
The lady guessing nearest the time the
watch stops at will be presented with It.
Hundreds OF guesses have already poured in
by mail, and passersby snould make it q

Government Headstones.

As was announced in this column some
time ago Post l4l has some 10 or moro
headstones for soldiers buried in the GENE.
teries of the Southside. Among these are
several who were never connected with the
post, and, although the place of burial so
far as the cemetery is concerned is known,
the location is not. The friends of these will
confer favor upon the committee having
this matter in charge by calling upon Com
mander L. T. McGrath. 1922 Carson street,
who has a list of them. If the friends so de-
sire, they can take the stones away with
them. In fact, where the friends are able,
this course would relieve the post greatly.
However, whether the friends do this or
not, the committee expects to have them all
properly placed before Memorial Day.

Oklahoma the New Mecca Of All Who Want
to Get Divorces.

Oklahoma the New Mecca of All Who Want
TO Get Divorces.
GUTHRIE, OKLA, April 3o.-[ Special J.
The number Of divorce cases now pending
in Oklahoma is stupendous. In single
county the number runs well up toward
100, and they form large part of the busi-
ness in all the courts Of the Territory. This
is not due to any particular infelicity of the
people Of this Territory, but to the fact that
the divorce law here is very lax, and scores
of people have come in from other States to
get rid of burdensome marital ties
A residence of only 80 days is required.
A divorce is granted tor infdelity, cruelty,
neglect, desertion or intemperance, and
action can be brought in either the Probate
or District Courts. These facts are begin
ming to become generally known over the
country, and Oklahoma will soon rival
South Dakota as q mecca tor divorce
seekers.

hard for many months in order to honor the

and now that their labors are almost COM
pleted, the Grand Army posts, many Of
which have co-operated in the work, will
doubtless lend their aid in making the dedi-
cation a great success.
