BILE and ~ Articles.
Different Methods Employed by the
Representatives OF Russia and
Japap-A Northeast Gale
In Blowing.

Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. 4.-From
an Official source the Associated Press
is informed that the treaty is COM
pleted. 1t consists OF a preamble and
II articles. the substance OF all Of
which have been given in the Associ-
ated Press dispatches. But there were
still differences about the wording Of
the protocol OF the last sitting, which
must be signed before the treaty It,
self can be signed. The Japanese pre-
scented a protocol 10 which the Rus
SLAMS took exception. The differences.
however, are expected to be straight
ened before noon Monday, and 1t
seems quite possible the treaty will be
signed Monday afternoon. Mr.. De-
Martens, who is extremely anxious to
get back to Russia, has engaged pass
age on La Lorraine, sailing from New
York Thursday, and leaves here on
Wednesday.

northeaster. Since Saturday night 1t
has been blowing gale, accompanied
by torrents Of rain. According TO To-
cal traditions, such northeasters con-
tinue for three days, so that 1t Will
probably last over the day on which
the treaty is signed.
The plenipotentiaries and the ut
taches of the two missions seem to
be fully as anxious for the curtain to
ring down on the final act Of tho
drama as the little colony of newspa-
per correspondents and summer
guests who are waiting to be "in at
the DEATH"
The signing Of the treaty is to be
n very exclusive affair. The japanese
objected to the presence OF any news
paper correspondents or photogra-
piers, and it has therefore been de-
cided that beside the plenipotentia-
ries and secretaries there shall be
present only Assistant Secretary
PIERCE, representing the president;
Gov. McLane. Of New Hampshire; the
mayor of Portsmouth, Admiral Mead,
commander Of the navy yard, and the
commanders of any United States
ships in the harbor.
The 18th and concluding article Of
the treaty provides that the exchange

days after its signature by the plenipo-

use of Hyde Park, London, by motor
cars during the afternoons OF July.
The term motor.cars includes electric
broughams and carriages. which is
rather hard on the large number Of
fashionable people who have replaced
their horse-drawn carriages by the
modern vehicle. The reason given for
this decision is that danger Is caused
to the occupants Of the numerous
horse-drawn carriages.

WORTH REMEMBERING.

There are three entirely different
kinds of ingredients used in making
the three different varieties of baking
powders on the market, viz:-1) Min
eral-Acid or Alum, CD Bone-Acid or
Phosphate. and (3) Cream of Tartar
made from grapes. 1t is important,
from the standpoint of health, to
know something about these ingredi-
ents, and which kind is used in your
baking powder.
Cd MineralAcid, or Alum. is made
from kind Of clay. This is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution product is obtained
which is alum. Alum is cheap; costs
about 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 large manufac-
turer Of a phosphate powder. The u
8. 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
riol and with continual stirring anu
in the following proportion" etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak-
Ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents pound
(3) 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 off 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
originally existed in the grape. Cream
OF Tartar, then, while the most expen-
slve, is the only ingredient that
should be used in baking powder to
act upon the soda, as it's wholesome
ness is beyond question. Cream of
Tartar baking powders sell at about
40 to 80 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

SMUGGLING BY AUTOMOBILE.

Automobiles are being used to snug
gle goods across the frontiers Of Eu-
rope. The trick is becoming more
common as the popularity of the mo-
tor cars increases on the continent
The adaptability Of the motor car to
the purposes Of the land smuggler has
tempted many to "run gauntlet" with
all kinds of dutiable goods, and now
that few cases have come to light
the customs officials are devoting un-
usual attention to those folks who
show a preference for travelling in
their cars under cover of darkness
On the French frontier recently sus-
picions were aroused by the frequent
night excursions over the Berlin side
by particular motor car. An am
buscade was laid, and as a challenge
only resulted in the speed of the car
being increased, obstacles were placed
in it's way. The occupants of the car
decamped, and when the vehicle was
searched $275 worth of Moravian to-
bacco was seized. Both the car and
it's contents were onfiscated-Brook-
lyn Eagle.

His Journey in Vain.

The two brothers had been apart for
years, but now Jack had returned form
the west, and he lit cigar and eyed
his brother sheepishly
"You know l always was a quixotic
sort of chap" he said, tentatively;
"but can you guess why came home
this year?
"Well, old chap, we're all glad
enough to see you; but l can't say l
know your reason for coming home"
The other drew a photograph from
his pocket
"You remember you sent me this
group about five years ago.?

it,"

all my wanderings, and l determined
that l would make a fortune and then
come home and lay at her feet. Yes.
I know it was an odd fancy to take,
but I'm like that; and now that I've
made the money I've come to you to
know who she is and where l can find

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Material 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 ef
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
beauty OF color. Alabastine, q wall
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means a hard white rocks
the ideal covering for wall.
The most beautiful wall decorations
in the world are those which are laid
on with the brush The mural designs
in our largo 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 cheap imitation. These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach OF the every
day home. They can be done with
Alabastine, which is permanent in it's
coioring. 1t does not rub off, 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 sheet or canvas on
the floor, have your man come in with
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

CLASS FLAG ON TALL STACK.
School of Mines Freshmen Perform
Darinu Feat to Win.

There is bright new American flag
floating from the top of the high smoke
stac kat the National smelter near the
school of mines at Rapid City. For
several weeks past there has been
strong rivalry feeling between the
freshman and sophomore classes in
this school. 1t came to an end here
when the freshman class succeeded in
fastening the flag to the top of the
stack, 166 feet from the ground. This
feat was accomplished at 230 o'clock
in the morning after one of the most
daring feats in the history of Western
schools. Two of the freshmen lashed
themselves to the top of the stack
with ropes to prevent their being
blown away by wind, and finally the
staff was fastened. All the next day
the sophomore class tried to take the
flag down, but failed. The freshmen
class gave the sophomores until 2:3O
o'clock the following morning to take
the flag down, but it is still flying at
the top of the stack.

Discretion.

Pat had been in the service of a
militia officer for a number of years,
and was on terms of such intimacy
with the soldier that he dared to be
witty at his masters expense.
The officer one day was discussing
the possibility Of war with his coach
man, and after casting some refec-
tions upon the courage of his retainer
he asked:
Pat, what would you do in case q
war did break out?"
Pat thought moment. "Sure," he
said. "Oi think Old shtay ut home wtd

GREAT CHANGE,
From Change in Food.


The brain depends much more on
the stomach than we are apt to sup
pose until we take thought in the mat
ter. Feed the stomach on proper food
easy to digest and containing the
| proper amount of phosphates and the
healthy brain will respond to all de-
| mands A notable housewife in Buff
falo writes:
"The doctor diagnosed my trouble
as a nervous affection of the stom.
ach.' I was actually so nervous that
l could not sit still for five minutes
to read the newspaper, and to attend
to my household duties was simply
impossible. l doctored all the time
with remedies. out medicine di6 no
good.
my physician put me on all sorts
Of diet, and | tried many kinds of
cereal foods, but none of them agreed
and when l tried Grape-Nuts l did so
with many misgivings-I had no faith
that it would succeed where eyery-
thing else had failed
But it did succeed, and you don't
know how glad l am that l tried It.
l feel like new person, have gain
ed in weight and don't have that
terrible burning sensation in my stom-
ach any more. feel SO strong
again that | am surprised at myself
The street noises that used to irritate
me so. | never notice now, and NV
mind is so clear that my household
duties are real pleasure"
Name given by Postum Co.. Battle
Creek, Mich.
There's reason.
Now why was this great change
made in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had rot
been supplied with the right kind OF
food to rebuild and strengthen the
nerve centers in these organs. It is
absolute folly. to try to do this with
medicine. There is but one sure way
and that is to quit the old food that
mas failed and take on Grape-Nuts
food which is more than half digested
IN the process of manufacture and is
rich In the phosphate of potash con.
tanned In the natural grain, which
unltes with albumen and water-the
only three substances that will make
up the soft gray filing in the thou.
sands Of delicate nerve centers IN the
brain and body. Grape-Nuts food is :
sure road back to health In all such
cases.
