1t behooves the Republicans Of the
various wards to keep awake to the
Importance of the coming spring elec-
ton. Next Tuesday election day will
be here. The time between now and
that day should be employed in good
work for the ticket. The Democrats
in nearly every instance are at work
early and late making the rounds Of
various places in their wards. They
will leave no stone unturned to carry
their ticket to triumph. The Republi-
cans must also keep at work, not in a
spirit of over confidence, but with the
knowledge that effort is required and a
determination to win.

IMPURE BAKING POWDER SEIZED
The New Ye,rk Board of Health Find
It Contains Alum and Rock, De-
clare It Dangerous to Health
and Dump 1t Into the

of the analysis of the health depart
ment stated that it was IAN alum bak-
ing powder" containing alum and
pulveriZed rock.
The different health authorities
seem to have different ways of re-
pressing the sale of bad baking pow
ders. In England they have prosecut
ed the grocers under the general law
and broken up the traffic. In Missouri
the sale of alum baking powder is ac-
tually prohibited by law. In New
York they seize the unwholesome
stuff and cast it into the river, with
out any discussion. The latter way is
certainly effective.
The alum baking powders are us,
ally offered at a low price, ten to
twenty cents pound, or with some
prize, as temptation to the house
wife.
Consumers can protect themselves
by buying only high-grade baking
powder of established name and repu-
tation. Do not be tempted by the
grocter to take something else as
"just as good" or "our own brand,''
for the trials show that the grocer
himself is often deceived by unscru.
pulous makers and is selling an alum
powder without knowing it.
There are several good powders on
the market; let the housekeeper insist
