Condu ctors and Engineers VIII Not
Do Telegraphlng.
TIE-Up MAY Be The RESULT.
Yet Trains Are, as Rule, Making
Their Regular Runs, While There
Is Delay With Less Than CARROTS
of Freight.

st. Paul, Aug. 6.-Although condi-
tons approaching tie-up have not
yet developed as yet in the tele-
graphers' strike on the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific, increasing
ly serious delays, caused by the
strike, effected the moving of traffic.
Reports from officials report num-
Der of deserters and the number OF
stations opened vary widely. General
Manager Horn, of the Northern Pa
cific, and General Superintendent
Slads, of the Great Northern, say that
they are continuing to get men from
the union ranks, and President Per-
ham, of the telegraphers' union, de-
clares that these statements are great
ly exaggerated in each case.
Numbers of stations are being open
ed on both roads, clerks from the gen
eral offices of the roads and other en-
ployes, besides dispatchers, being
used to augment the ranks of the
strike-breakers. Those who are not
telegraphers are assigned to smaller
stations to take care of the freight
and express business.
General Manager Horn. in com
menting on the developments, said:
1.-THE striking operators have abso'
lutely failed to tie up the Northern
Pacific or to interfere to any great
degree with the movement of trains
Our freight and passenger service Is
being maintained effectively and with
out break"
The difficulties in train operation
will be greatly increased BY union rul
ings received tonight by conductors
and engineers employed by the two
systems. Grand Chief Engineer W
S. Stone, of the order of railway
engineers, has instructed the mem
bers of that body to cease assuming
any functions of the telegraphers, and
E. E. Clark, head of the Order oil
Railway Conductors, has issued like
order. The telegraphers say thai
much of the success the roads have
had in moving trains is due to the
aid given by members of these two
orders

kinq Edwards Carpet.


Persia is famous for carpets, but a
finer example of weaving Of that coun-
try has probably never been seen
than that which has just been pre-
scented to King Edward by the Shah
of Persia. A special mission has been
sent to England to bring the carpet,
which is so big that it was impossible
to open it out in the Persian legation
and the richness of its quality mark
it at once as a covering for state
drawingroom. A Persian carpet of
average size takes from six months
to a year to make, the whole of the
work being hand done. A huge num-
Der of weavers were employed on
King Edwards carpet as soon as the
shah returned to Persia from Eng
land, and every means was taken to
expedite it's manufacture, but so great
was the task that almost three years
elapsed before the weavers declared
their work finished. Woven into the
carpet, as an integral part of most
intricate design, is the kings name,
Edward VII" Another duty of the
special mission of equal Importance
was the presentation of gift to the
queen. This consists of brooch set
with brilliants and fine turquoises, and
is also piece of native Persian work.
Decorations were also brought over
for the Prince and Princess of Wales,
that intended for the princess having
yet to be conferred.

Warming to Housewives.

The average consumer of baking
powder does not know that reaction
occurs in the process of baking. When
ever chemical reaction takes place,
the nature Of the original materials Is
entirely changed, so that the sub
stances which remain in the food to
be eaten are very different from those
which composed the baking powder
before baking. For this reason, the
statement that baking powder con-
tains alum or cream of tartar Is worth
less so far as informing the consumer
as to what he eats. What the con-
sumner wants to know is what goes
into his stomach, not what is in the
can. Food prepared with a cream of
tartar baking powder does not contain
any cream Of tartar, just as food pre-
pared with alum baking powder is
free from alum. In the case Of the
high-priced trust baking powders, this
bread residue consists of Rochelle
Salts, the active ingredient of Seidlitz
Powders. That is, when food pre-
pared with these trust baking pow
ders is eaten, the consumer Is taking
a dose of Seidlitz Powders. Rochelle
Salts is a medicine and not food;
and this constant dosing will seriously
derange the digestive organs. Prof.
Wiley, chemist Of the United States
Department of Agriculture, has de
clared in substance that "a loaf OF
bread made from quart of flour
leavened with cream of tartar. baking
powder contains As grains more OF
Rochelle Salts than is contained In
one Seidlitz Powder. At hearing
before the Committee on Public
Health of the Massachusetts, Legisla-
ture, on bill designed to prevent this
wholesale dosing of the public, the fol-
lowing eminent Boston physicians tes-
titled against the healthfulness Of
Rochelle Salts, and strongly recon-
mended the passage Of law which
would prohibit the sale of powders
which left this dangerous drug in
food: DR.. Hartung, DR.. G. o. Kepler,
Dr. F. B. Foster, DR.. G. M. Palmer.
Why should the consumer pay forty
five or fifty cents per pound for bak-
ing powder when the best baking pow
der in the weld can be made to re-
tail at twenty-five cents per pound
(the price asked for Calumet Baking
Powder) and leave fair manufac-
turer's profit? The manufacturers Of
Calumet Baking Powder have for
years made standing offer Of
100000 for any substance injurious
to health found in food prepared from
it. Bread made from Calumet is en-
tirely free from Rochelle Salts, alum,
lime or ammonia.

Sound as a Dollar.

Monticello, Mimi, Aug. 7th.-Mr. ].
w. Moore of this place stands as liv-
ing proof of the fact that Bright's Dis
ease, even in the last stages, may be
perfectly and permanently cured by
Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Mr.. Moore says: in 1898 three
reputable physicians after a careful
examination told me that | would die
with Bright's Disease inside Of year.
My feet and ankles and legs were
badly swollen; l could hardly stand
on my feet and had given up all hopes
of getting cured when travelling
salesman told me that he himself had
been cured of Bright's Disease two
years before.
He said he had taken to his bed
and expected to die with II. but that
he had been cured by remedy called
Dodds Kidney Pills.
Il commenced taking them at once
and l am thankful to say that they
saved my life. After short treat
ment was completely restored to
good health and am now as sound as
a dollar"

NO SLEEP FOR MOTHER
Baby Covered With Sores and Scales
Gould Not Tell What She
Looked Like-Marvelous
Cure by Cuticura.

"At four months old my baby's face
and body were so covered with sores
and large scales you could not tell
what she looked like. No child ever
had worse case. Her face was being
eaten away, and even her finger nails
fell off. 1t itched so she could not
sleep, and for many weary lights we
could get no rest. At last we got
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. The
sores began to heal at once, and she
could sleep at night, and in one month
she had not one sore on her face or
body.-Mrs. Mary Sanders, 7O9 Spring

Every houseKeeper should kTow
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in y pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
1907. package it is because he has
stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose Of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
tiers and figures "16 ozs." Demand De-
fiance and save much time and money
and the annoyance of the iron stick
ing. Defiance never sticks.

continue to suffer rather than submit
to examinations which so many physi-
clans propose in order to intelligently
treat the disease; and this is the rea-
SON why so many physicians fail to
cure female disease.
This is also the reason why thousands
upon thousands of women are corre-
spending with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass. To her they can confide every
detail of their illness, and from
her great knowledge, obtained from
years of experience in treating female
ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise women
more wisely than the local physician.
Read how Mrs. Pinkham helped Mrs.
T. C. Willadsen, of Manning, la. She
writes:

life, and cannot express my gratitude in

To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and
who is reasonably satisfied with the
old. we would suggest that trial OF
Defiance Cold Water Starch be made
at once. Not alone because It is guar
anteed by the manufacturers to be SUI
perior to any other brand, but because
each 10c package Acontains 16 ozs.,
while all the other kinds contain but
~ ozs. 1t is safe to say that the lady
who once uses Defiance Starch will use
no other. Quality and quantity must
win.

Northeast Mississippi has none of

has learned to fear: malaria and other
unhealthfnl features so long dreaded
in the delta and other low lands Of the

section absolutely beyond danger from
any of the malignant forms of disease,
the water is like that from q noun

conditions it is in every way simply sub
lime. Nor is it Objectionable from
other points. The climate as all any one
could ask, the soil is rich and responds
to the hand of culture with magic
