worth Remembering.

There are three entirely different
kinds OF ingredients used in making
the three different varieties Of baking
powders on the market, WE'D Min
eral-Acid or Alum, C) 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 ingredients, and
which kind is used in your baking
powder.
Q) Einerdl-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 alum. Alum is cheap; costs
about two cents a pound, and baking
powder made with this Mineral-Acid
sells from 10 to 25c a pound.
81 BOne-Acid, or Phosphate. is the
basis Of phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described in
the patents issued to a large manufac-
turer Of n phosphate powder. The
U. s. Patent Office Rerort gives a full
and exact description. bat the follow
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones. after being ground
are put into freshly diluted oil of Wit
riol 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 30 cents a pound.
t3) 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, boiled
with water. and CRYSTALS OF Cream OF
Tartar. white aud very pure, separate

Tartar. then, while the most expensive,
is the only ingredient that should be
used In a baking powder to act upon
the soda. as its wholesomeness is be-
yond question. Cream Of Tartar bak.
ing 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 % cents a
pound are made OF Mineral-Ac!is:
those selling from 10 TO so cents OF
Bone-Acid: and tnose from 40 to 20
cents OF Cream OF Tartar made fsoai
grapes.

Your Share of the Crops.

New York World: If the 1904 crops
were equally divided every man, woman
and child in the United States would
receive sSs s==si 90 ssssS zee eggs
140 quarts of milk, more than half OF
which goes into butter; one bushel of
apples and two and a half bushels Of
other fruits and berries three bushels
of potatoes and two bushels of car

eleven heads of cabbage and half as
much lettuce, cucumbers and cauli-

usually in he shape of beef, pork and
poultry, besides seventy pounds of cot
ton, six pounds OF wool for clothes and
enough leather for two pairs of shoes.
These raw materials at present
wholesale prices would sell for about
$50. The size of the average Ameri-

drinking fountain at the end OF the wide
walk leading past the front OF the city
hall. is a grating over a large opening IN
the ground. 1t is rusted. and shows little
evidence of having been opened In a long

which. as one can see as one peers down
between the bars, lea1s under the side
walk and out under Broadway. One could
easily enter the passage II he grating

and four or Ave wide. 1t leads to the
terminus OF an experimental under

Clergy who head the list, live more

How Tornadocs Are Born.

Tornadoes usually occur along the
southeastern border OF an area OF low
barometic pressure. because only In
such a situation is a warm. moist wind
likely to force it's way under a mass OF
cold air 1000 or more feet above the
earth.
The prevailing winds are from the
south and are usually laden with mois-
ture from the gulf and the Atlantic
This brings into play the tornado max
Ing forces. The warm, moist air, being
lighter than the cold aid above IT,,
seeks an outlet. and when q weak point
is found it begins TO pour through and
spread out like oil or water. To take
its place the surrounding air PUSHES in.
