Protect Our Food.

The doctors inform us that alum il
. poison, and that alum baking pow
ders should be avoided because they
make the food unwholesome. Prom.
inent hygisnists. who have given the
matter most study, regard these pow
ders As an evil that should be sup.
pressed, by state action. In Mime
sofa and Wisconsin alum powders
are not permitted to be sold unless
they are branded to warn consumers
Of their true character, while in the
District of Columbia tho authorities
have under the direction of Congress,
adopted regulations to prohibit the
nee Of alum in bread altogether.
Are not the people of other states.
rs we'll - those Of Minnesota and
Wisconsin, entitled to warning of .
danger which IS apparently menac-
ing them at close hand, and it 10 not
the whole country entitled to absolute
protection, as the people of the Dis
trict of Columbia are protected, by
legislation which is entirely prohib-
tive?
Until We can have protection in
the form of statute, how can our
state boards of health, state analysis
or food commissions better serve the
public than by publishing in the news
papers from time to time the names
Of the baking powders which they find
to b made from alum?
Meantime, it will aid the house
wife in designating the alum powders
to remember that all powders sold at
twenty-five cents or less per pound
are of this dangerous class. Pure
cream of tartar powders are usually
sold at from forty-6ve to fifty cents
pound.

How Hard Bees work.

Darwin after close observation found
that a bee would often visit as many
as 81 flowers in the course of a minute
though with other plants in which the
honey was difficult to extract the aver
age would be as low as seven. Strik-
ing IA mean between these two figures,
one may say that an ordinary working
bee visits Is flowers a minute, or 900
an hour. Considering the late hours to
which a bee works, it is probably no
exaggeration to say that it is busy for
eight hours a day, allowing for inter-
walls of rest This would make it visit
1920 flowers day, or 64S,000 in pc
Rod of six months.
Mr.. A. S. Wilson in recent paper
showed the enormous amount of labor
gone through by bees in making even
a small quantity of honey. He found
that approximately 1876 heads of red
clover yield Is grains of sugar, or 1885,
600 heads about two pounds AS each
head contains some GO fiorets, it fol-
lows that 100000 distinct flower
tubes must be sucked in order to OBJ
tain two pounds of sugar. Now, honey
contains, roughly speaking, 70 per cent
of sugar; therefore the bees must make,
in round numbers, 2.500,000 visits for
one pound of honey

Thomas Edison used to have Nikola
Tesla working for him in his studio
near Paris. Tesla came to him one
day asking for work, and Edison, who
needed help, referred him TO the fore
man, named Fulton. The latter took
the young foreigner on condition that
he would work This Tesla did. For
three days and nights he never closed
his eyes. AT the end of the first fort
night he had not had 4S hours sleep all
together and Fulton. the foreman
made him take a rest. He also said to
the young man that on account of the
strain they had both been under they
had better have good meal.
Accordingly the foreman and the
student went to a well known cafe
on one of the bouleyards and got one
of the biggest and thickest steaks pos
sible 1t was a whopper and seemed
to be overwhelming for two. Besides.
the furnishings were LIBERAL and there
was enough good wine. Between them,
however, they managed to make ev-
erything disappear and then Fulton.
turning to Tesla, asked him if there
was anything else he would like.
you're out with me, you know, and
whatever you want just order it,"
Tesla looked vaguely around for a
minute, as if making up his mind, and
then hesitatingly said, "Mr. Fulton. if
you don't mind | would like another

Danish HospitaIity.

A correspondent of the Dundee Ad-
vertiser writes from Denmark The
people of Denmark, though sprung
from the same stock rs ourselves, are
infinitely more polite and hospitable--
so much so that my friend the Scotch
landowner, who is Scotch to the back
bone and never more Scotch than when
out of Scotland. early came to the con
clusion that their politeness, besides
being "A MIGHTY trouble to themselves,
was sheer waste of time ! did not
find 1t so. rejoiced that it was one of
their characteristics for they We're
ever willing TO show me their farms
and their dairics and their bacon cur
ing establishments, though | had been
assured before leaving this country
that the Danish creamery at least was
shut against the stranger.
Like most continental people | have
met, the Dane puts himself to no end
OF trouble to help you, and after he
gives all the information you want you
must needs go to his home and drink
his drink and smoke his cigars, as old
friends in this country might do after
years of separation"

A penalty For Being Polite.

1t is more difficult to be polite in the
city of Hamburg than in any other
place in Europe. There the most chiv-
alrous man has to think twice before
giving up his seat in car to a lady, as
he may be turned off the car for po-
likeness. 1t seems that the Hamburg
trolley cars will seat, according to size,
20 or % persons, 10 to IA on each side.
In addition four persons are allowed
on the front and five persons on the
back platform. When the car is full,
the conductor hangs out a sign, BE
setzt,' which means occupied and is
passenger until some one gets off the
car.
Sometimes while the conductor is in
front collecting fares, lady will step
on the car which is already occupied
AS there is no conductor on hand to
prevent her, the lady steps inside, and
the gentleman who may offer her
seat comes out and takes his stand on
the platform. When the conductor aft
er going his rounds returns to his post,
he promptly requests the gentleman to
step off the car. as he has forfeited his
seat and the car is fully occupied"
Should he refuse to leave the car he is
put off The policemen on the streets
are instructed to watch the cars sharp
ly, and if they find a car carries even
one more passenger than its proper
complement the conductor is fined 70
cents, which is paid to a charity fund
of the street railway company.-Phila-
delphia Press.

Neither saved Nor E.rned

Railroad people have an arrange
ment by which they can register the
speed of Il train. 1t looks like steam
gauge and is connected with the axle,
so that the pointer registers the num-
Der of revolutions every minute. There
are so many revolutions to the mile,
and by an ingenious arrangement the
number of miles an hour is shown up
on the dial. The apparatus is expen-
sive as we'll as delicate.
The late Jay Gould was one of the
first to adopt it. and shortly after a
register was placed in his private car
Russell Sage was making journey
with him and inquired what it was
Mr.. Gould explained the mechanism
and the usefulness Of the machine
with great care. Mr.. Sage was silent
for moment and then, looking up, in

Hi. Mistake as to American Girls.

A Louisville girl who was recently in
who was in the same city, and, in fact,
in the same house with her for two
months. studying German for his pro-
motion. Like most Europeans, he had
the usual absurd ideas about the girls
of this country, who in the minds of
the untraveled foreigner. are rather
hoyden creatures, who smoke and have
other masculine traits.
After dinner one day in the early ac
workmanship of the couple the Off
Ger offered the Louisville girl ciga-
rette and upon her refusing it he said:
"Why, thought all the girls in the
United States smoked"
$50 we do" replied the girl ''but
never cigarettes, only pipes. If you will
get that pipe off the mantelpiece in the
next room shah be charmed to smoke
With you"
Not suspecting the joke she was play
ing on him. the officer brought the pipe
and filled it. and it was not until he
saw the wry faces his friend made in
attempting to carry out the joke that
he appreciated the situation. He was
continually telling the American in a
tone of surprise that she was just like
the girls at home in England and her
rejoinder was:

REMOVING A RING.
A JeweIer Tells How to Take on One
That Has Grown Tight.

That Has Grown Tight.
Most girls who have had baby rings
have had trouble in removing them
from their fingers. There is really no
necessity for all this ado about remov
ing tight ring" said a jeweler. I'm
fact, as in everything else, the secret
of success lies in knowing how to do it.
Here is a recipe that ! have found I'M
failing for removing tight ring, and
there is no painful surgical operation
involved either: Thread needle flat
in the eye, using thread that is strong.
but not too coarse, then pass the head
of the needle under the ring. Care, of
course. must be used in this. and it
would be best to soap the needle before
beginning The needle having been
passed through, pull the thread through
a few inches toward the hand so"
BY this time the jeweler had passed
the needle and thread under the ring
on his own finger and was prepared TO
illustrate the little lecture Wrap the
long end Of the thread around the fin
ger toward the nail in this manner,
then take hold of the short end and un-
wind it--so The thread, thus pressing
against the ring, will gradually remove
it, however tight or swollen the fin
ger."-PittSburg Dispatch.
