For Housekeepers.

Alum Is unfit for food, producing in- digestion, alum heart, sall0w com plexion, constipation and attendant ills. It is not fair to our people that such substance disguised as baking powder should be sold to allow a maker or grocer little more profit. regardless of the health of the family.
 Good baking powder is one of the most useful things in the household, and we seriously urge our readers to save their health, and money also in the end, hy insisting upon having good brand like Royal or Dr. Prices. These powders are shown by the gov ernment tests to contain neither alum or ammonia.

Monday morning the people of Mo- gales were grieved to learn of the death of Madam Chazet, we'll known and much respected French lady, an old resident in this community. The old lady was taken ill with pneumonia early last week. Owing to her ad- vanced age, 70 years, the physicians considered the attack very serious and exerted all their skill to check the disease. Their efforts were of no avail and it was seen Sunday that she would probably not live the day through. She expired early Monday morning. The funeral took place Monday afternoon and was attended by a large number of friends. Her nephew Ernest Desarnaux, who re- gently arrived from France. has been visiting his aunt and was with her at the last moment. He was the only relative of the Madam in this coun- try. To him THE OASIS extends its deepest sympathy in this the hour of his bereavement.

Don Felipe Eribes is the name of an old man, resident of Arizpe, Sonora, that was born in the year l784 at that place. Don Felipe is very lively old man of IF years Of age and hopes to live many years more. He counts his descendants by the hundreds they are scattered all over the republic of Mexico and California. It is said that he has smoked cigarettes from his early youth to his present age. He is one of the few mortals that have seen the light of three centuries.
 A. G. Burrola, a we'll known hotel man in Hermosillo, has taken charge of the American Hotel at that place. This popular house has been thorough. ly renovated and equipped with all the appliances of a modern hotel. The restaurant is open at all hours and meals are served in both the Amer ican and Mexican style. The bar is presided over by an expert mixologist and only the finest wines, liquors and cigars are kept in stock. The hotel is in close proximity to the depot and will enjoy large patronage from the travelling public.

United States Commissioner Mix has had dozen or more Chinamen up before him during the past two weeks. Those who could not prove that they were lawfully in this country were promptly deported. Inspector Adams is an expert when it comes to spotting a strange "China boy" and rarely makes mistake when he grabs one illegally upon Uncle Sam's soil. It is strange to the ordinary observer how this remarkable instinct becomes so finely developed As a general rule most Chinamen look the same and in large cities the police often experience great difficulty in locating a Chinese criminal if he manages to get into a crowd of his fellow countrymen. Hard luck befalls the Celestial who attempts that little dodge here on the line. In very short time Mir. Adams has him before the U. s. Con- missioner and he is instructed to pack his grip and prepare to go.

If the deal goes through
  the Cherokee Indians will depart from the United States. Owing to treaty this great tribe of civil lzed Indians cannot legally emigrate from Othis country as body. They will, however, depart as individuals gradually, as they did from Georgia and North Carolina sixty years ago when they settled on White River in The reason for this pro, posed emigration of the Cherokees is given by Henry Dirk, their represen. tative in Washington, as discontent with Uncle Sam, coupled with wish to settle in place where there will De more freedom and opportunity.

ests that now exist and in planting
more trees. There has been little
agitation of the matter, and for that
reason there is no popular sentiment
concerning it, but not few people
have taken thought of it, and the re-
suit is a bill before the legislature
whose purpose is the encouragement
of tree growing. AS an inducement
to land owners it offers to all who Sc
lect any part of their land, not ex-
ceeding one-eighth of the total area
of the tract, as permanent forest res
ervation, practical exemption of
tax upon that acreage. To be exact,
such reservation is designed to be ap-
praised at 81 per acre. Provision is
made for certain number of trees to
the acre, for replanting when any
are removed, and for county record
of such reservations. The measure is
step in the right direction. 1t may
not become a law, because the public
is not yet awake to the desirability of
such laws, but the time will come
when their wisdom is recognized,
and if this bill does nothing more it
will call attention to the matter and
thus serve an educational purpose. -

call world-cities. Boys may grow up to
be good men in those surroundings, but
there are terrible chances against them.
And we do not believe it is wholly in
fection or example that causes the harm.
There can be no normal life in city
the existence is unnatural. The pleas
ures that are offered boy, the avenues
for ambition that are open to him, are
not those of the sane life by which
breed is perpetually recruited and kept
fresh and the pressure of sap in the
growing tree must force it to sprout
forth in unwholesome growths.
We dwellers in small towns are happy
in the variety of hopeful directions in
which our young men may develop.
There is no end to the possible ways in
which a boy can make himself of use in
town that has the certain future of
Nebraska City. He can fit himself for
any kind Of a position that he feels a
liking for, and there is room for him.
The schools, the library, the factories,
shops and round-houses are all open to
him, and no matter what line he takes,
if he will make use of his time he can
count on succeeding; and he can do it
all in a plentiful supply of the free
prairie air, and without losing touch
with the good green earth, which the
city boy cannot do.

The subject of
FOREST RESTOR- forestry, or the
ALTON. art of cultivating
forests, is one that
has not received much attention in
Indiana. In number of other states
it's Importance is better understood
and action has been taken toward in
creasing the forest area. Nebraska
being originally a treeless country,
no argument was required to convince
land owners of the need of planting
trees, and they have willingly coop
Grated with the authorities in the
work, with the result that thous-
ands Of acres of young timber now
diversity that state. In eastern states,
notably New York, the efforts of for
estry organizations have taken the
form of protecting the forest lands
yet remaining, rather than in planting
new trees. Indiana was heavily tim
bered in it's early history and the
work of clearing the land for agri-
cultural purposes was great. 1t was
in later years, when the lumber mar
kets opened, that the cutting Of the
trees became reckless, as is the case
in all new countries. Land which
would have been better left covered
was then denuded of trees and the
consequence was shown in the drying
up Of streams and the loss of protec-
tion to cultivated fields, to say moth
ing of lessening of property values
and of general picturesqueness of
scenery. There is but one way Of
remedying the recklessness and lack
of foresight of the earlier settlers,
and that is by taking care of the for
