WORTH REMEMBERING

There are three entirely different
binds of ingredients used in making
the three different varieties of baking
powders on the market, yiz:--1) Min
eral-Acid or Alum. CD Bone-Acid or
Phosphate, and go Cream of Tartar
made from grapes 1t is important,
from the standpoint of health, to
know something about these ingredi-
snts, and which kind is used in your
saking powder.
ID Mineral-Acid. or Alum, is made
from a kind of clay. This is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution a product is obtained
which is um. Alum is cheap; costs
shout two cents a pound, and baking
powder made with this MineralAcid
sells from 10 to 25c. pound.
(2) Bone-Acid. or Phosphate, is the
basis of phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described in
the patents issued to aslarge manufac-
turer of a phosphate powder. The u.
S. Patent Office Report gives a full
and exact description. but the follow
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones, after being ground.
are put into freshly diluted oil of Wit
Fiol and with continual stirring and
in the following proportion" etc
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak-
Ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents pound.
CD Cream of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes, and flows with the juice
from the press in the manufacture of
wine. After the wine is drawn of the
tartar is scraped from the cask, boil
ed with water, and crystals of Cream
of Tartar, white and very pure, sepa-
rate and are collected. 1t differs in
no respect from the form in which it
origin ally existed in the grape. Cream
of Tartar, then, while the most expen-
sive, is the only Ingredient that
should be used in a baking powder to
act upon the soda, as its wholesome
ness is beyond question. Cream of
Tartar baking powders sell at about
40 to so cents a pound.
Such are the facts, and every one,
careful of the health of the family,
should remember this rule:-Baking
powders selling from 10 to 25 cents a
pound are made of Mineral-Acids;
those selling from 20 to 80 cents of
Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to SO
cents of Cream of Tartar made from
grapes.

Simple Living and High Thinking.
1t is related by a gentleman who
had an appointment to breakfast with
the late A. I. Stewart, that the butler
placed before them both an elaborate
bill of fare; the visitor selected a list
of rare dishes, and was quite abashed
when Mr.. Stewart said, Bring me my
usual breakfast-oatmeal and boiled
eggs" He then explained to his
friend that he found simple food q ne
cessity to him, otherwise he could not
think clearly. That unobscured brain
applied to nobler ends would have
won higher results, but the principle
remains the same.

Quick Bread.

According to a recent report from
United States Consul Mahin, located
at Nottingham, England. there has
been patented in that country quick
process of bread-making, which elimi-
mates the sponge altogether, and
makes it possible to prepare the
bread for baking in one hours time.
In a public test of the method, a
batch of twenty-five loaves was pro-
duced from the raw -four in two hours
and thirty-five minutes. This method
produces larger number of loaves,
and the bread is remarkably sweet.
The gain in time is made chiefly by
the regulation of the temperature.

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Mcteriai and New Ideas for the
Decoration of Homes.

New Mcteriai and New Ideas for the
Decoration of Homes.
The styles of home decorations have
completely changed in the last few
years, and it is pleasant to say that
they have changed for the better.
Time was when we hung monstrous
patterns printed on paper against our
walls, and considered them more or
less pleasantly. 1t would hardly be fair
to say that we considered them beau
tiful or artistic. But they were the
vogue and were put on. The time
has come when. with our better meth
DDS for interior decoration. better Ell
fects can be secured.
In wall coverings, whether they be
of paint, or of kalsomine, or of Ala
bastine-whatever the material used
to cover the wall-the thing desired Is
that which has the greatest covering
power, as well as permanency and
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means a hard white rocks
the ideal covering for wall.
The most beS utiful wall decorations
in the world are those which are laid
On with the brush. The mural designs
in our large public buildings, and the
frescoed designs in the large cathe-
drals and churches, have a perma-
nency and an art of which wall paper
is but a cheap imitation These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach of the every
day home. They can be done with
\labastine, which is permanent in its
coloring. 1t does not rub OH, and it
has the soft effect of pastelle.
A great many people defer the re-
decorating of their rooms not only
because of the expense but because
of the discomfort of it. With Alabas-
tine there need be no discomfort and
there can be no muss, for all that is
needed Is to lay a sheet or canvas on
the floor, have your man come in with
q pail, make the solution and simply
brush it on the wall. That is all there
Is to it, and the room is perfectly
clean and thoroughly renovated.

Carnegie's Latest Gift.

1t has been carefully estimated that
the interest on the $40, OO0,O he has
given will enable all superannuated
teachers in ninety-three institutions
to retire on half pay. Besides the
added efficiency this provision will
bring to the instruction of the col
leges provided for it will lift great
burden of anxiety from many faith
full teachers, grown old in the service,
and having nothing to look forward to
for support when they become wholly
disabled We are disposed to think
that this gift will prove to be the
wisest and most beneficent of all that
