Charles o. Parsons, who recently COM

never looked better. Owing to the bad
condition Of the road from Lewistown

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.
DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder is declared by all
authorities as free from alum, ammonia or any other adul.
terant. Its 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.

The Governor of Oklahoma, is a

ever he struck out for himself. and
BY hard work succeeded in getting
through the academy at Steelville,

After four years of hard service,
after having been in many battles
and after having marched with
Sherman to the sea. he mustered
out as a colonel. lie returned to
Steelville aud was soon at the head OF
the local bar. He held many Law
offices, was circuit Judge from
1875 to 1887. He has always been
a strong Republican and in May,
1890, was appointed to the Supreme
Court of Oklahoma. which position
he filled admirably. His appoint
ment as Governor was satisfactor,
to all parties. 1t is difficult posi-.
ton, Oklahoma still being rather
unsettled, but Governor Seav is the
right man for the position.

LABOR COST OF PRODUCTION.
The cost of production of manu-
featured articles is the cost of the
labor or services of man. The cost
of the original elements in their
natural state, before they are adj
vanced in value by labor, is insig-
nificant.
The raw material of a $4,000
locomotive is worth but few dol
lars.
The raw material of 800, 600
worth of watch springs is worth but
a few cents.
The raw material that enters into
some finished products, as sand. for
instance, is worth absolutely moth
ing until labor Is expended in get
ting it.
Mr.. Edward Atkinson. in a care
fully prepared statement published
in April, eSs7, demonstrates that of
the total cost of producing medium
shirtings, worth 81 cents a yard,
the proportion paid for labor at
various stages Ton the plantation,
in transportation, in factories. &c. }
was 92.12 per cent, the remaining
portion, s.SS per cent. being alb
sorbed in interest, insurance. profits.
&c. This estimate is confirmed in
striking manner by the following
statement of Hon. A. S. Hewitt,
made at hearing before the Com
mittee on Ways and Means of the
House of Representatives. February
p, 1884, the subject under discus
sion being the percentage of labor
cost in the manufacture of iron.
Mr.. Hewitt said:
The percentage of labor involved
in the production of any given arti-
Gle depends upon where you begin
to estimate the percentage. If You
begin with steel-rail mill, which
uses pig iron. the labor will be from
25 to 80 per cent. The actual wages
paid by wire mill viii amount to
about % per cent. of the cost. If
Won include abor in the blast fur
mace, that would make it 60 per
cent, but if You 60 on back TO the

Mr.. Mills: Is pig iron a finished
