The LAND OF STORY BOOKS.

AT evening when the lamp is lit,
Around the fire my parents sit;
They sit at home and talk and sing,
And do not play at anything
Now, with my little gun | crawl,
All in the dark along the wall,
And follow round the forest track,
Away behind the sofa back.
There in the night, where none can
spy,
All in my hunters camp | lie,
And play at books that | have read
Till it is time to go to bed.
These are the hills. these are the
woods,
These are the starry solitudes;
And there the river by whose brink
The roaring lions come to drink.
| see the others far away,
AS il in the fire-lit camp they lay,
And J, like to an Indian scout,
Around their party prowled about.
SO when my nurse comes in for me,
Home | return across the sea,
And go to bed with backward looks
At my dear land of story books.

DANGEROUS FAKES.
Tricks to Introduce Alum Baking Pow.
ders Which Should be Exposed.

There has recently been attempted
at some of our grocery stores, and also
at dwelling houses, by agents who are
trying to sell alum baking powders,
what the exhibitors call baking pow

some boiling test that pure cream of
tartar baking powders contain some
thing which every woman of intelli-
gence knows they do not.
1t does not need chemist to expose
this trick Cream of tartar. which is
the chief constituent of the best and
most wholesome baking powder, is
originally clear, white crystal This
{ is ground into fine, creamy flour, in
which form, mixed with baking soda,
it is present in the baking powder.
Cream OF tartar, when mixed with
water and boiled simply returns to its
crystalline form, and that is all there
is to the so-called test.
The matter of special interest to the
public is to know what these people
offer in place of cream of tartar pow.

GRAND BASKET s1llEL.
College Athletic Association Realizes a
Nice Sum of Money.

NICE SUN Oh money!
On Wednesday evening, Feb. 20 the
Denison College was place of merri-
;ment such as it has not been for years.
The occasion for this rejoicing was the
basket social given by the Athletic AS
ISOLATION for the purpose of relieving
them from the burden OF debt which
has been weighing them down for six
months. About 7:30 the college halls
and chapel began to fill with laughing,
hilarious boys and quiet girls with
large packages protruding from under
their wraps. Later these proved to be
the baskets. From about O'Clock un-
til $50 the time was passed in merry
games. Then the company gathered
in the chapel where they sang few
good old songs to quiet their nerves
and prepare the boys for the excite
ment to come. Miss Webster recited
in her pleasing manner several selec-
tions which were heartily encored.
. Then began the business of the eve
. ming. Mr.. Van Ness as auctioneer is
an ideal one and his flow of enticing
language opened the hearts and, more
important, their pocketbooks. The
baskets varied in price from 60c. to
1925, this last figure being paid for the
beautiful basket prepared by Miss
Webster. The baskets were all styles,
sizes and shapes, but it is needless to
say any one of which was fit for king.
At II O'Clock the happy possessors OF
baskets and Incidentally fair partners
betook themselves to the commercial
rooms where tables were prepared.
There steaming coffee was served and
all were made happy.
The net proceeds were sos. This is
the largest sum ever raised by such
means in Denison and the Athletic As
ISOLATION desires to thank the ladies
and gentlemen for the interest an6
kindness they showed. The Associa
tion also wishes to thank Mr.. Van Mes.
for his grand work as auctioneer. L
was grand success from start to finish
and all live in the hope of anothe,
such one.

Forgotten Women Journalists.

The newspaper woman is not so lat
ter day factor in American journal
ism as many think. AS far back as
1872 she made her appearance; for IN
that year was established the first
newspaper published in Rhode Island.
It's founder was Mrs. Anna Franklin.
who with her two daughters wrote the
items and set the type, while her ser
wants worked the press. For her skill
in the craft she was appointed printer to
the colonial officers; In l772 Clemen-
tine Reid was publishing paper in
Williamsburg, Va, called the Virginia
Gazette, favoring the colonial cause
and greatly offending the royalists:
Two years later Mrs. H. Boyle started
a paper under the same name, .advo-
eating the cause of the crown.
In 1773 Elizabeth Timothy started a
paper in Charleston, S. c., of which
Anna Timothy became editor after the
Revolutionary War. Anna was later
appointed State printer, which posi-
ton she held for seventeen years.
