WORTH KNOWING.

Tho average consumer Of baking
powder does not know that q reaction
occurs in the process Of baking. Food
prepared with . cream Of tartar bakr
ing powder does not contain any
cream OF tartar. A loaf Of bread made
from q quart Of -four leavened with
cream of tart&r baking powder contains
forty-five grains moro of Rochelle
Salts than is contained in one Seidlitz
powder Some eminent Boston physi-
clans testified against the healthful-
ness of Rochelle Salts.
Therefore, why should the consumer
pay forty-five or fifty cents per pound
for the cream of tartar or Trust bak-
ing powders when the best baking
powder in the world can be made to
retail at twenty-five cents per pound
(the price asked for Calumet Baking
Powder) and leave q fair manufactur'

a thimble nine inches below the cell
ing and fill in concrete to the top OF
mold. Make another mold four inches
smaller than the first one to form the
shaft of the chimney. This reduc-
ton of two inches on each side forms
the top of the base.
The shaft mold should be about
three feet high. When this is filled
build the top mold. allowing it to pro-
ject one inch on each side, raise two
and one-half inches, project one inch.
raise five inches and jug in twice
more when the top will be the same
size as the shaft. See the plan for a
clear understanding. 1t is we'll to
bed iron bands il the shaft, also in
the top, as the building is in progress.
Mix the concrete five parts of gravel
to one of Portland cement, and ram
thoroughly. Finish the outside of the
chimney with cement wash applied
with brush. The size of the chimney
should be built in proportion to the
size of the house. In some cases ce-
ment chimneys are nodded in sections
and then built, but the sections are
very heavy to handle on the roof.

How often do we hear women say: "It

or Don't speak to me, I am all out OF
sorts?" These significant remarks prove
that the system requires attention.

may be caused by diseased kidneys or
some uterine arrangement. Nature
requires assistance and at once, and
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

powers in all those peculiar ailments of
women. 1t has been the standby of
intelligent American women for twenty
years, and the ablest specialists agree
that it is the most universally success
full remedy for womans ills known to
medicine.
The following letters from Mrs.
Holmes and Mrs. Cotrely are among
the many thousands which Mrs. Pink
ham has received this year from those
whom she has relieved.
Surely such testimony is convincing
Mrs. j .G. Holmes, of Larimore, North
Dakota, writes:
II have suffered everything with backache
and womb trouble let the trouble on
until my system was in such condition that

much suffering 1 would have saved, l should
