there were few Washingtonians who
had not a sigh for the collapse of a
beautiful vision. And to Franklin
Webster Smith il was the end of near

a magnificent conception on which he
had spent many thousands of dollars
and to which he had given ungrudging

Franklin Webster Smith, who has
himself entered his eightieth year,

race-of the sturdiest OF New Eng

Cape Cod. That they should have
named their boy after two New Eng
land patriots was almost a foregone
conclusion. That he, born in the north
end of Boston, almost under the
shadow of the Bunker Hill monument,
should have devoted his life to the
creation and development OF an insti-
tuition which he believed would be a
notable factor in the countrys educa-
ton, was almost equally foregone
conclusion.

Baking Economy

By the use Of a perfect baking pow
der the housewife can derive as much
economy as from any other article
used in baking and cooking. In Sc
Letting a baking powder, therefore,
care should be exercised to purchase
one that retains its original strength
and always remains the same, thus
making the food sweet and wholesome
and producing sufficient l%eavening gas
to make the baking light.
Very little of this leavening gas is
produced by the cheap baking pow
ders, making it necessary to use dou-
BILE the quantity ordinarily required
to secure results.
Manufacturers of crea of tartar
powders ask about twice as much for
their goods as that paid for any other
baking powder, and food prepared
from these cream of tartar powders
contains large quantities of Rochells
Salts. Ask your physician what the
results would be from the constant
dosing of Rochelle Salts.
A baking powder that is recommend
ed by leading physicians and which
is both perfect in quality and moder.
ate in price, is therefore suggested
