BOGUS FOOD PRODUCTS.
They Can Live Only So Long as Their
Real Character Is Hidden by
Lying Labels.

After all, something is to be hoped
for from national and state laws.
While it is true that many laws on our
statute books are dead as to enforce
ment, or only partially enforced, yet
it is also true that some of the laws
that we supposed would be of little
effect have been enforced to the letter
and have accomplished all that could
be desired. We will instance the ma
tional law against ''filled cheese" 1t
was not many years ago that one could
hardly buy a piece of cheese and be
sure it was what it claimed to be. Filled
cheese has demoralized the home mar
ket and destroyed most of the for
eign demand for cheese made in the
United States. The filled cheese law
was passed, and the result has been
the almost complete obliteration of the
industry of making filled cheese. 1t
can still be made and sold, but
it cannot be sold for anything
besides what it is. What is the result !?
It is found that no American wants
to buy the stuff, and so none is sold in
this country. Two factories in Illinois
still make filled cheese and sell it to
English firms. But even there the de-
mand is growing less. English mer-
chants last year imported 636, ga
pounds, made in the United States and
Holland. II is made in no other coun-
try. The amount used in England last
year was not half of the amount used
two years before. Recently there have
been some prosecutions in the English
court on account of tradesmen having
sold filed cheese for the pure article.
1t is probably true that all of this
cheese now leaving the United States
is going out fully branded under its
own name, but it is altogether probable
| that the consumer on the other side
of the water buys it for full cream
cheese. It's decadence proves that it
and ali things like it can live only so
| long as their real character is hidden
by a mask. We need therefore only
tear off the mask to destroy most of
the imitation food products.-Farmers

SO far we could not project from the
awful firing, nor the wagons.
sat night the men dug one grave,
as long as they could, and others laid
into it those who had died during the
day, and when we stood by we all
knew that any of US might soon be
among the ones who lay SO still On
the ground, and not among those who
tried to sing a last hymn to the dead.

crowded trench, holding his dear, dead

SIT was the day after that little
group of Britishers with white flag
came into camp, and we had short
rest from the firing. The general
sent word that he wanted to see all
the women, and we went to his quar-
tiers.

to fire on us yet and wants the wom-

'''Will you go?' he repeated; and
then one woman said no. Then he
called us each by our names and asked
us separately, and everyone said no.
That is your answer, but I thank
your general he said to the messen-
gers. 1854 -
Gone morning a stone fell on a
trench close to the edge of the bank
and it was followed by a leg with a
Scotch shoe and stocking. The leg
was riddled in a second but it was
followed by more legs and bayonets,
and I knew the end had come, and
wondered what it would be. 1t was
barely light enough to see, but there
was no firing, and I came to the edge
of the trench again, and then [ could
see that the general was sending a
message out by half a dozen men, and
I was told he had surrendered.
