later TO the kidneys. To all women who

An Evil in Food the Law Should


In reference to the use of alum bak-
ing powders Prof. Schweltzer, Of the
State University Of Missouri, says:
1.-THE deleterious effects of alum and
the soluble salts Of alumina upon the
human system, even when used in
small quantities, are too we'll know
to need relating; their use in baking
powder is dangerous, and should be re-.
Stricted."
The effects Of the continuous Use of
alum baking powders are thus summed
up in a medical publication:
"Alum taken into the stomach re-
tards the digestion Of the food.
cit is an irritant which infames and
initiates the stomach and intestinal
canal.
'It is an astringent and tends to con-
stipate the bowels, which interfeTes
with digestion.
''It renders the albumen of the food
partially insoluble, and therefore takes
away from it's ~nutritiye value.
''Jt is absorbed into the blood, which
it te1lls to thicken and coagulate. The
free flow of the blood through the or
cans of the heart is thus retarded.
"Its continued absorption into the
system causes some forms of nervous
rrostrations and many OF those affec-
lions of the nerves from which both
women and men suffer.
Fourteen grains Of alum have
caused the death Of a child. Larger
doses have frequently resulted fatally
in the case of adults.
"No drug so powerful and deadly, 10
matter in what proportions it may be
employed, can safely be used in any ar
ticle of food"

Social SUGGEST.

Young girls who belong to the same
social set are much on all equal plane
between the ages of II and IS; wheth-
or rhey are rich or poor, plain or pref
ty, does not then particularly count,
as they have similar pursuits and in
terests, and are practically on an
equality. 1t is after their social de-
but that the great differences becomes
apparent and that friends are more
or less separated through inevita BILE
circumstances. The social success of
some young women is f0regone con-
clusion. The prominence and wealth
of their families, combined with a Ger
tair, amount of attraction, render
any axertion quite unnecessary. They
have only TO take graciously and
sweetly the goods that the gods pro-
vide. to be very popular. With the
rank and file of maidens, however, ii
is quite different, and depends upon
themselves whether they become per-
soma grata in society or gradually
drop out of the running with former
associates. Unluckily for the major
ity, It is only experience that sharp
ems their wits and perceptions, and
tina. can only be acquired by failures
and knowledge Of the world If young
people could only get experience with
out experiencing, or If they would
only be content to take what their
elders have acquired at considerable
cost how many years they might gain

Our attention has been drawn to q

from Lord Buchan will explain the
story better than we can tell 1t. But
we are left to solve an interesting
problem, and we appeal to any of our
American friends who can help us to-
solve ii, and that is, to whom did Gen.
eral Washington give the box, and In
whose possession is it now? The LETTER
Is as follows:

exception to the reference to the Rus
