One Pure Baking Powder.
Like Telling a Secret.

A story is told and it is a true story that over seventy
per cent. of all the baking powders sold contain either alum
or ammonia, and many of these powders contain both. The
i'll effects upon the system of food raised by alum or ammo
MIA powders are the more dangerous because of their insidious
character. 1t would be less dangerous for the people were it
fatal at once, for then such food would be avoided, but their
baneful action because imperceptible at first and slow in its
advances, is no less certain.
DIR. Prices Cream Baking Powder is declared by all
authorities as free from alum, ammonia or any other adul-
terant. It's purity has never been questioned, and while it
does finer and better work, it costs no more at retail than
many of the adulterated powders.

A Gcolorlcu, Puzzle.

Rev. Owen Watkins has been pros
pecting in Mashonaland in the inter-
ests of the Wesleyan Missionary So
ciety. In a recent letter he says he
is presumably the first white man to
see the Mount of Footprints, which
he thus describes: AT last we came
to n large mount of folks on the
top of the hills. Here are thousands
of impressions On the granite rock.
Hundreds of human footsteps, thou
sands of footprints of animals-lions,
jackals, wolves and antelopes. On
the top of the mount the appearance
is as if a crowd of animals and men
had rushed together in fright. At
whatever period these footprints
were made, it must have been before
the outer surface of the rock had
hardened. The distance from where
the footprints begin to where they
eliminate on the mount is 200 yards"

CURED me that the effects were due
to arsenic.
"The nurses, I found, wore blue
dresses, from which the arsenic in
question was given off. The dresses
were discarded and the children and.
nurses recovered, but later were again
affected by the nurses resuming the
dresses after being washed. They
thought that by washing the gar.
ments the arsenic would be removed.

PUMPING o s
A UaiassfeBut Startling Cure for La.
xiness.

A traveller, in the course of a morn.
ing walk in Amsterdam. came upon a
group gathered round a we'll into which
q strongly built man had just been let
down. A pipe, whose mouth was atthe
top of the we'll, had been opened and a
stream of water from it was flowing into
the we'll and gradually filling it. The
man below had quite enough to do, if he
did not want to be drowned, to keep the
water out by means offs pump that was
at the bottom of the we'll.
The traveller, plying the man, asked
for an explanation of what seemed a
cruel, heartless joke.
"Sir," replied an old man standing
near, 'sthat fellow is, as you see, healthy
and strong. I have myself offered him
work twenty times, but he always al
lows laziness to get the better OF him
and will meke any excuse to beg his
bread from door to door, though he
might easily earn it if he chose.
1--WE are now trying to make him real.
ize that he must work. If he uses the
strength that is in his arms he will be
saved; if he lets them hang idle he will
be drowned. But look" continued the
old Dutchman as he went to the edge of
the we'll, s'the fellow finds out that he
has muscles already; in an hour We shall
let him out with better resolutions for
the future"
The traveller watched until the man
was liberated from his watery prison,
and felt SURE that at least Q temporary
cure had been effected.-YOuth's Com.

PIE o LUNCH.

/ say unto such of YOU as would
preserve intact the inside garments
of your respective stomachs. choose
with exceeding care the companions
of your midday lunch. For pitch is
not more likely to stick ia
whoever touches it than is alb.
stemiousness to drop from one
who consorts with pie-eaters
and other cannibais. Heavy, even
as the crust thereof, is the spirit of
the devourer of pie at noon. And he
who succumbs to the temptation of a
plate of wheats is tlatter than either
the plate or the wheats. Therefore,
when noon comes get We to a bum
merry; or, if you must needs go where
pies are sold, take heed how you are
accompanied. Verify, 1T is harder for
a rich nan to pass through Il needles
eye than for an eater of sandwiches
to resist the allurements of pie as
Haunted before his face day by day by
so-called friends. And once fallen
from grace. no derrick of cast-iron re-
solve shall lift Il man to the atmos-
phere of sandwiches and virtue again.
AS in the case of the first fall, the
flavor of the forbidden fruit spoils the
palate for that which is i%nnocuous.
Once L was gastronomically as pure as
the beautiful snow, but | fell
through the Vaccinations of one who
called himself my friend. His plan
had Il devilish malignity about it that
should be a letter of recommendation
for him i'm hades. 1t was merely to
eat pie beside me each day as l
munched my plain sandwich, and to
simulate in dumb show ecstatic de-
light in its SAVIOR. This plan breaks
down the resolution by the slow and
insidious process of undermining, and
is much more etfectual than any sud-
den coercion. Well, not to dwell on
any CHASTITY details, L am now a pie
eater, within the full legal meaning
of the term. OF such are the legion
OF pale spirits who hurry through the
business streets at noon seeking pie
and an early grave. They find the
the said pie, and the said grave finds
them. IT Il million tallow-faced dys-
pcptics and a million unhonored
graves attest the fatal work of the
American pie, yet men there are who
live and grow fat by means of it.
These are the men who sell it to the
men who eat it, and the men who
write jokes about it for other men to
laugh at if they (the other men) can.
Thus the American pie is both filling
and nutritious to those who refrain
from eating it. 1t fattens the man
who does not eat it and thins the man
who does. And the grave fattens by
both; in the IL case by the greater
number of its victims, and in the
other by their greater rotundity.-

The development of. the b~eet-sucar
industry is rapidly progressing in the
Western States. Last wear three fac
tories were successfully operated in
California, turning out over 100000
pounds of sugar, on which was paid the
government bounty of $3.50, 900. There
are also factories in Utah and in Ne
braska, with others in contemplation.
The American Agriculturist for March
has a lengthy article upon this subject,
from which we gather that our total
annual consumption OF sugar amounts
to l,sS5,994 tons of 2,240 pounds each in
1891, being 67a pounds per capita of the
population.
OF this quantity we imported from
foreign countries over 100000 tons,
paying therefor more than SlOO, OO0, 900.
The domestic production of sugar last
year was only 266, 229O tons, but the next
decade will witness a marked change
in this respect. Heretofore it has been
impossible for us to grow much sugar,
owing to the high rate of wages as COM
pared with the pauper coolie labor of
foreign sugar-producing countries. This
is now changed by the government
bounty of 9 cents per pound, which
places us on the same plane as Hawaiian
sugar growers, who, under a reciprocity
treaty, have practically been paid that
amount, through remission of duties on
all their sugar imported here.
This bounty will be in effect till july,
1905, and affords ample time for the
bdilding up of q stupendous agricultural
industry second to none in the world,
and n which will pay handsome earn
tai should no delay in this undertaking.
If a large area of Western territory be
devoted to sugar beet culture, it means
a proportionate decrease in other
products which will accordingly benefit
Eastern farmers.-New En0lnni Eurmer

Letter Writing.

Letter writingis of great antiquity.
The sending of letters by post was
originally established by the Roman
emperors for safe and speedy trans
mission of public documents and in
modern Europe by Louis Nj. Of
France for the same purpose. The
first approach to a regular postal sys-
tenn in England was in the time Of
Charles 1. Stamps for letters were
first temporarily used in France in
the time of Louis NV, and in diff
ferent devices we're afterward used in
Spain and Sweden. In the year 1910
the postal reform was first put in OPP
Grafton in England, and was first used
in the United States in 1S47,,

Fact. About Binding Irvine.

A prominent feature of the Demo-
cratic attack on sections of the Mckinley
tariff is the proposed repeal of the duty
on binding Irvine. The price of binding
Irvine has decreased under protection,
but even if the duty we've added to the
cost the difference to the farmer would
only amount to l cent on an acre OF
grain. In India binding Irvine is made
