and vetoed bill for public build
ing at Allentown, Pa, the home town
of the congressman who dared to
vote according to his conscientious
convictions. After vetoing that bill.
Cleveland sent word to the other
members of the house who had pend
ing legislation of interest to them
selves, saying: There will be an
Allentown for every Sowden.' That
meant that he would use his power
to humiliate any representative of
the people who dared to vote con-
trary to the will of the man in the
white house.

Now tell me what right the pres
1dent has to be firm over a matter
of legislation. Mr.. Roosevelt SAYS
that he has inherited his reciprocity
matter from Mr.. Mckinley, and that
may be true, for the late president
believed in reciprocity as national
and international policy. But that
reciprocity was with the strong and

Liniment for Home Use.

A liniment that is simple to make.
but is very efficacious in results, is
composed of kerosene, camphor gum
and sweet oil. Put pint of kerosene
into a quart bottle, add as much cam
phor gum as will dissolve, adding a lit
tie more gum day by day for three
days; then add half pint of sweet oil,
shake thoroughly, cork well, and put in
a safe place for future use. For burns,
cuts. bruises, stiff neck or joints, sore
throat, bunions and few other ills to
which flesh is heir. relief is said to be
almost magical when this liniment is
applied.

CONDEMNED IN MISSOURI AND
CONFISCATED IN
NEW YORK.

Judge Clarke of st. Louis has con.
yicted and fined heavily a number OF
grocers for selling baking powders
containing alum.
The week before the Health Depart.
ment of New York seized a quantity
Of stuff being sold for baking powder
which they found was made from alum
mixed with ground rock, and dumped
it into the river. r.
The Health Authorities are thus TAX.
ing effective means to prevent the In
PRODUCTION into our markets of in.
furious substitutes in place Of whole
some baking powders. -
As alum costs only two cents .
pound, there is great tempta ton for
those manufacturers who make sub.
stitutes and imitation goods to use it.
Alum baking powders can be detected
by the health authorities by chemical
analysis, but the ordinary housekeep-
er, whose assistance in protecting the
health of the people is important, can
not make chemical examination She
may easily know the alum powders,
however, from the fact that they are
sold at from ten to twenty cents for
pound can, or that some prize-like
spoon. or glass, or piece Of crockery.
or wooden ware--is given with the
powder as an inducement.
AS the people continue to realize the
Importance of this subject and con-
sumers insist on having baking powder
OF established name and character.
and as the health authorities continue
their vigorous crusades, the alum
danger will, it is hoped, finally be
driven from our homes.

SAD END OF ROMANCE.
Pretty Virginia Girl Who Was Maid
Wife and Widow in the Space
of Ten Minutes.

Ten minutes was the brief space Of
time in which Miss Mildred Deuel., of
Richmond, Va, counted the stages of
life which most women reckon by
years. In that short while she was a
maid, wife and widow, and the ro-
nance which had filled her dreams
had been realized and shattered. She
became Mrs. Richard Miles Stanton
while her husband was dying, a victim
of fever contracted in the service of
his country in the Philippines.
Three years ago Miss Deuel., the
daughter of a theater manager in
Richmond, became engaged to young
Stanton. She was but II years old,
and the objections of her parents ruled
the young people when they talked of
marriage. A year later the young man
obtained commission as lieutenant in
fight the Filipinos.
Love is not governed in its intensity
according to distance, however, and
the miles between Lieut. Stanton and
Miss Deuel. served but to increase the
affection they entertained for each
other. Their parents agreed to their
marriage upon his return to this coun-
try, and with the sole purpose of greet
ing her soldier hero Miss Deuel. went
to California few weeks ago.
The transport came into the harbor
at San Francisco, and Lieut.. Stanton,
emaciated almost beyond recognition
and weakened to helplessness, was
among the passengers. His arrival,
through mistake in the transmission
of an order of the war department,
was two weeks earlier than anticipated
by Miss Deuel., and the greeting which
Lieut.. Stanton had looked forward to
was denied him.
Nearly week had passed, and Lieut..
Stanton showed no sign of improve
ment. Then came day when the hos
pital was being visited by large party
of San Francisco people. In the party
was Miss Deuel., keenly sympathe tic
as she remembered the sweetheart for
whom she was waiting. A pause by a
cot, a faint exclamation of surprise,
and moment later the two young peo-
pie were clasped in each others arms.
Lieut.. Stanton rallied from his fever
for few days, and the doctors said
he was on the road to recovery. His
flancee was his constant attendant.
and the story of their romance spread
through every ward in the hospital.
One even ing messenger summoned
Miss Deuel. from the residence of her
grandparents with message stating
that Lieut.. Stanton was sinking rap
| idly and could not live until morning.
A few minutes after her arrival at
the hospital the young officer, in the
presence of his mother and sisters, ex-
pressed the desire to make Miss Deuel.
his wife, so that she might inherit his
property. There was no time to be
lost. and it was too late to summon a
minister. Clasping each others hands
the young people took the vows of mat
r!Inony under a civil agreement, which
was duly witnessed by the relatives of
both. and few minutes later Lieut.
Stanton was dead.

Fire Insurance Business.

The fire insurancepapers have lately
been giving Wisconsin considerable
attention. They insist that taxes are
too high here ana the following list
of Wisconsin companies which have
retired from business is a sufficient
answer to the popular belief that too
much premium money is paid for the
returns received: North American
Milwaukee, 1858; Franklin F. & NJ,
Fond du Lac, 1859; Phoenix, Mllwau-
kee, 1860: United States, Milwaukee
1860: Merchants & Traders, Milwaukee,
1861: Commercial, Milwaukee, 1861;
Brewers, Fire, Milwaukee, 1877; Mad
ison, Madison, 1880; Hekla, Madison
1890: Wisconsin Fire, Milwaukee. 1899.
1t is a subject which requires knowl-
edge for intelligent discussion. There
is some $4O0,0O0,000 carried" in this
said to have paid to the companies
some $350,0000 in premiums and re-
ceived back only $4,000 for fire losses.
the papers of that city raise the cry
of Injustice This makes the insur-
ance press satirical and it cites the
case of Montreal, Jacksonville and 9th
en- cities which have suffered heavy
losses. 1t may be that the legislature
has been harsh in dealing with the
companies; certainly it would be we'll
il the great sum paid for premiums
could be kept in the state And by the
way, home company is just forming
