HEIMGANG.

sHeimgang!" So sweet the German
people
Whisper when they hear the bell
Tolling from some gray OLD steeple
Deaths familiar tale to tell;
When they hear the organ dirges
Swelling out from chapel dome,
And the singers chanting surges.
@Heimgang!" Always going home.
Heimgang! Quaint and tender say
ing.
In the grand old German tongue,
That hath shaped Melancthon's pray
ing,
And the hymns that Luther sung;
Blessed is our loving Maker,
That whcre'cr our feet shall roam,
Still we journey toward Gods acre,
Heimgang! Always going home.

VIII AT DOES 1T MEAN
Fact or Fiction about Two Great Fair
Awards.

A newspaper paragraph denounces
as "false" the claim of baking pow
der company to an award at the
Worlds Fair. Whom can it mean?
Certainly not DR.. Prices. Why?
Because as the records show, DR..
Prices exhibited, competed and re-
ceived the highest award, both at Chi
cago and the California Midwinter
Fair. The award in California in
cluded Gold Medal. The official OK
aminers pronounced it the strongest,
the purest, the most wholesome
and efficient OF all the baking pow
ders. Its title to confidence is unques-
toned.
Can it be the manufacturers of q
New York powder, fictitiously LABEL
ed @absol utely pure" who are making
"false" claims? That would be
strange indeed inasmuch rs they we're
not even considered in the awards.
Was it Ammonia In the New York
powder that prevented it's makers
from competing7 If not what?
