Some Food Tests.

The official food analyses by the
United States and Canadian govern
ments have been studied with inter
est. The United States government
report give the name Of eighteen we'll
know baking powders, some Of them
advertised as pure cream tartar
powdes, which contain alum.
The report shows the Royal to be
a pure cream-of-tarter baking pow
der, the highest in strength, evolving
1906 cubic inches of leav ening gas
per single ounceof powder. There
was eight other brands of cream of
tarter powder tested, and their avar-
ag strength was Ills cubic inches OF
gas per. ounce of powder. " .
The Canadian government investi-
cations were of still larger number
of powders. The Royal Baking Pow
der was here also shown the purest
and highest in strength, containing
1882 cubic inches of leavening gas
per ounce of powder. Nine other
cream -tatrer powders were tested,
their average strength being reported
to be 80 cubic inches of gas pei
ounce.
These figures arr very instructive
to the practical housekeeper. They
indicate that the Royal Baking Pow
der goes more than 80 per cent. fur
ther in use than the others, or is one
third more economical. Still more
important than this, however, they
prove this popular article has been
brought to the highest degree Of
purity-for to it's superlative purity
this superiority in strength is due
and consequently that by its use we
may be insured the purest and most
wholesome food.
The powders Of lower strength are
found to leave large amounts of i'm
purities in the food. This fact is en-
phasized by the report of the Ohio
State Food Commissioner, who, while
finding the Royal practically pure
found no other powder to contain less
than 10 per cent of inert or foreign
matter.
The statistics show that there is
used in the manufacture Of the Roy
al Baking Powder more than half OF
all the cream-of- tarter consumed in
the United States for all purposes
The wonderful sale thus indicated
for the Royal Baking powder-great-
er than that of all other powders com
bined-is perhaps even a higher evi-
dence than that already quoted Of
the superiority of this article, and Of
it's indispensableness to modern
cookery.

Comparison Between Political
Life Of Alexander Hamilton
and Daniel Webster.

The public career of both these
great men commenced when they
were near the same age, about seven
teen or eighteen, but Hamilton's career
was almost ended when Webster's
began.
Hamilton,s first speech was at a
meeting held in New York in 1774.
The main subject of his discussion
was sThe American Cause" After
listening to the orators he was more
impressed by what was left unsaid
than by what was said. Thinking he

SCHOOL DEPARTMENT

The teachers and pupils of our
public schools have lost a kind,
thoughtful and very helpful friend
through the death Of Mr.. George NJ
Rose. He was diligently and yigor-
ously at his work Friday morning
April ID, and his burial occurred
Friday afternoon, April 20. Mr.. Rose
was faithful, conscientious man in
the execution of his duties, and his
efficiency at his post was unusual
His interest in the scholars, and his
readiness to accommodate them, en-
deared him to us all. We feel our
own loss much; but it is not the loss
of father, and SO we feel deep
sympathy and strong desire to COM
fort and help as much as possible
the members of Mr.. Roses family.
The teachers Of the High School
and the teachers of the whole school
provided quite quantity of flowers
for the funeral of Mr. Rose. The
school flag was floated at half-mast.
No school was held the afternoon Of
the burial. The teachers attended
the exercises in body.
The large school bell was not rung
Wednesday at all. 1t was feared
that it would disturb Mr.. Rose. At
the morning session there were many
tardinesses; but at noon, after the
pupils had been told Of the arrange
ment, scarcely a hardness occurred.
The readiness on the part of the
pupils to adapt themselves to any
change for the sake Of Mr.. Rose, as
we'll as many other evidences of in
terest and sympathy, all prove how
genuine were their feelings toward
him. ....

" OFFICIAL. PAPER OF MOBILES COUNTY.


Last week the Slayton Gazette used
D nearly column Of it's valuable space
II to answer little item that appeared
j in the ADVANCE concerning Senator
Washburn. If the Gazette made a
]. point in it's article, we failed to find
\ it, It says it does not oppose the
Senator tor any other reason then that
he and his friends attempted to "pros-
titute the Legislature" The Gazette
/. admits that Mr.. Washburn has made
good senator, and that he is man
Of ability, and the Gazette could not
be truthful and say otherwise. We
will wager with Mr.. Ruane that a
large majority of his readers take no
stock in that old democratic chestnut,
the Doodle cry, and that the member
from Murray county in the next legis-
lature will vote for Senator Washburn
for reelection. The charge of hood
elism is a democratic child-they
could bring up nothing else-and we
are surprised to see a few so-called
republican papers still harping on
that string; thinking perhaps they
may gain favor with a certain ele-
ment. The ADVANCE happens to know
that the Gazette editor has person
al feeling against the senator and that
he is not as holy" as he would have
us believe.
The democratic committee for this
senatorial district met here last Fri
day. There were quite number OF
prominent democrats who were not
members of it also present. They
discussed matters pertaining to their
work for the coming campaign
They adopted the following resolu-
toni:
Whereas, the Minnesota Demo
cratic association has sounded a bold
and fearless note of warning, and
sent forth righteous denunciaton
of unworthy masqueraders who have
heretofore been regarded as honest
Democrats; therefore be it
Resolved. That this gathering of
Democrats of the Seventh Legislative
district of Minnesota does most
heartily and gladly indorse the said
denunciation of so-called Democratic
Legislators who have proven so dis
gustingly recreant to their trust at a
time when the party and the nation
stand in pressing need Of true men
and decisive action in response to the
overwhelming demand of a great
majority of the American people, as
expressed in the last presidential
election.

Our Schools,

On account of the fair this week
the schools will not open until Mon
day next. The teachers are ready
and anxious to resume the work of
teaching the young ideas how to
shoot, so to speak. All the teachers
no doubt have had a delightful and
profitable vacation, and enter upon
their duties with renewed strength
and vigor. Prof. Beck says he never
felt better, while Prof. Duffy has fat
tened up and looks as though he
might possibly wink his eye at any
trivial mischief, but this is only guess
ing; and Principal Robinson, being a
jolly good fellow, the first day of
school will remove from the pupils all
doubts as to his cannibalistic tenden-
cies. The female teachers are all
happy, and look so sweet and pleas
ant, that each and every room will be
oneradiant beam of ofsunshine through
out, while Prof. Weisbach will make
it extremely pleasant for the German
department scholars, if one can judge
from outward appearances, for the
Prof. looks as though he had Jared
well during vacation. So children
get together your books, put on your
best bib and tucker, and enter schoo
next Monday with the determination
to conquer all the little intricacies
that may arise in your course of study
for the coming year. Napoleon is
proud of it's schools, and proud of its
instructors. And last, but not least
everybody is proud of the children.

Wreck on the Wabash,

A wreck on the Wabash road at
Liberty Center early Saturday morn
ing caused quite a disturbance in the
running time of trains until Sunday
Freight No. 80 from the east had
orders to go on the side track at
Liberty Center in order that freight
No. 67 from the west might pass
The engine and few cars of 80 had
passed on the. side track when 81
came along and owing to the dense
fog, the engineer did not notice the
danger until too late to stop. The
heavy train struck the other nearly
in the center and went right on
through. The engine of 67 and seven
or eight cars were demolished
Among the cars that were broken up
were several stock cars and hogs and
cattle were roaming promiscuously
around the streets of Liberty all day
Saturday. The wrecking train was
called and by Sunday morning every
thing was moving in good shape.

A Fine Entertainments.

The musical and literary entertain
ment at the NJ. f. Church, under the
direction of Miss May Barnes, on last
week Wednesday evening, was rare
treat which was enjoyed by few, as
the attendance was not large,
not near so large as the. enter
tainment deserved. The recitations
rendered were far above the average
at entertainments of this kind, re-
tlecting the elocutionary powers of
Miss Barnes which had been impaired
to her pupils. Miss Cowling, of White
house, in her vocal selections, capti-
waited her audience, receiving several
encores. Mr.. Campbell, whose sing
ing is always appreciated, rendered a
fine selection. The instrumental mu-
sic by Mrs. Kerr, Alta McHenry and
the Mandolin Club, added much to
the endowment of the occasion.

Death or DR.. Maggie Emery.

Word reached us last Thursday of
the death of DIR. Maggie Emery,
a former resident of this city, at the
home of her mother in Maumee. DR..
Emery removed from Napoleon to
Mcclure several years ago, and had
been practicing her profession at
that place until within the last few
weeks. She was taken i'll while visit
ing patient, and at that time it was
thought her mind had become seri-
ously deranged. but later it was
learned that her trouble was of par
alytic form. She was removed to the
home of her mother in Maumee
where her condition became rapidly
worse, she becoming helpless and
speeches..
Her death occurred early Thursday
morning, funeral services being held
at Maulnee Sunday.

A Former NanoIeon Ror.

We have been furnished with a
copy of the souvenir edition of the
Daily Journal Battle Creek, Mich.
In its pages we find the. following
sketch OF former young man of Ma
poleon, Mr.. Theo. Sands, who has
many friends here who will read it
with much pleasure:
Theodore F. Sands, a young physi-
clan who already occupies an impor-
tant position in the medical world,
was born in Shippingport, Pa. His
father was captain of a steam beat
on the Ohio river for several years.
Our subject passed his early life in
his native place and was given excel
lent school advantages. He attended
school at Napoleon, Ohio, and also
the Fostoria college of Fostoria, o.
AT the age of IS he begun the study
of law, in the law Office of Hon. David
Meekison, of Napoleon, o. After
completing his legal studies he began
the practice of law in Napoleon,
Ohio, but soon abandoned his profes-
sion to take up the study of medicine,
under DR.. Fairfield. He subsequent
ly attended medical lectures at the
OAlNClSlby ~ VI hlCAlS bll. db Ann Ar
Dor, and also at the Storling Medical
College, of Columbus, o. After COM
pleting his course there he came
again to Battle Creek to act as assist
ant to his old preceptor, DIR. Fair
field, in the Health Home. In a
short time DIR. Fairfield retired from
the institution, which fell under the
management of our subject. The
doctor has large general practice
and as specialist in surgical and
medical gynecology and nervous dis
eases, ranks among the first in the
state and at his clinics at the Hospi-
tai, may be found patients from diff
ferent parts of the United States.
The doctor is constant student and
tireless worker.
DIR. Sands was married in 1889 to
Miss Hiloh Miller of this city, who is
a lady of fine character and much
culture, and is well calculated to as
sist him in his professional career.
The doctor is man of excellent per-
sonal habits, is strictly temperate in
all things. He is member of the
different temperance organizations;
a Free Mason of high degree, thor
oughly independent in politics, be-
! ing bound by no party ties. In re-
ligion great admirer of the Rev. w.
d. Simonds, and holds i'll high esteem
the Seventh Day Adventists and the
great truths as proclaimed by them, a
devoted people, who he has lived
among for the last twelve years.

OUR WATER SUPPLY.
WHAT PROFESSOR NELSON HAS TO SAY
The State Board of Health Satisfied

The following communication was
laid before the city council Monday
evening, by Engineer Strawn.> 1t ex
plains itself:
Memorandum of a request of Prof.
Nelson, member of State Board of
Ohio, who came here to examine the
proposed water supply for Napoleon.
A visit, Gin response to a communi-
cation from your waterworks en-
gineer to the Ohio State Board of
Health, } was made by Prof. Nelson,
of Delaware, on July Gath, 1894,
DIR. @. o. Probst, Secretary, of the
State Board of Health, being unable
to attend on this occasion.
Your engineer accompanied Prof.
Nelson to the point where it is pro-
posed to take water from the river.
The examination of the river and
canal extended from the Perry street
bridge as far up the river as the large
culvert under the canal at turn in the
river at Bales creek. Upon this ex-
himself as satisfied with the proposed
supply, and also spoke favorably of
the location, but made the following
request: That the council take prompt
measures, either by resolution or by
ordinance for the protection of the
waters of the Maumee river from pol
luton and contamination by pre-
venting the entrance of any drainage
or sewerage into the river above the
proposed intake for the water supply.
He further thought the council
| should have a general Dlan of sewer
age adopted, which should be so de-
signed as to protect, so far as posi-
BILE the proposed water supply.
Very respectfully submitted on be-
half of Prof. Nelson, of the State
Board of Health,
