BUSINESS OUTLOOK
VERY ENCOURAGING
So Says d Leading Merchant,
Despite Lull---Busy
With Inventory.

In discussing the business outlook
for the coming six weeks an East
Side business mans. id that in many
ways January would be dull and
quiet month. Business men for the
next four or five weeks, he said, would
be busily engaged in taking an inven-
tory of their stock and statesmen and
agents therefore would not be r2pch in
evidence again till sometime in Feb
ruary. This will not be entirely 3
season of rest for the statesmen, how
ever, for they will be busy getting
ready their new samples and educat-
ing themselves in various new lines
of the business.
The general business outlook for
Watertown, however, is encouraging
for farmers will be busy bringing in
their crops to market There has
been no snowfall to speak of. but
those who know say that January
and February are the months for good
sleighing in this section. AS soon
as sIelghing does come, a wonderful
impetus will be given to business by
the daily throng of farmers bringing
their crops to the city.

After arriving home from Stoughton
where he had been doing some Christ

slipped into a side door with his arms
filled with various kinds of bundles,
went to locked room where he had
set up Christmas tree aud started
unwrapping packages to hang their
contents on the tree.
The first one he united looked
strange but he went at it confidently.
expecting to find a doll for his nlece.
Instead, to his horror, he discovered
tfe naked body of dead child.
While he was in Stoughton some
one had put the CHASTITY bundle in the
rear of his carriage and he had not
noticed IL.
He returned 10 Stoughton with the
body and All inquest WAS held. DR..
Iversen declares that the child was
about 3 Gays old and the cause OF
death is net evident. c. J. Dunton

put package from her rig into an
adjoining one that morning and he

but evidences of its value for agri-

COurtShip in Church.

A young gentleman happening to
sit in church in a pew adjoining one
in which sat young lady for whom
he conceived sudden and violent pas
sion, was desirous of entering into a
courtship on the spot; but the place
not suiting a formal declaration, the
exigency of the case suggested the fol-
lowing plan: He politely handed his
fair neighbor bible (open) with a
pin stuck in the following text: Sec
ond Epistle of John, verse fifth
"And now | beseech thee, lady, not
as though | wrote new comma nd
ment unto thee, but that which we
had from the beginning, that we love
one another" She returned it, point
ing to the second chapter of Ruth,
verse tenth-"Then she fell on her
face and bowed herself to the ground,
and said unto him, "Why have |
found grace in thine eyes, that thou
shouldst take knowledge Of me, seeing
that | am a stranger?' He returned
the book, pointing to the thirteenth
verse of the Third Epistle Of John
"Having many thing to write upon
to you, and speak face to face, that
our joy may be full" From the
above interview a marriage took place
the ensuing week.

On the whole, the campaign of 1856
was to me a very happy experience
while the contest was on. | was so
confident of the irresistible power of
truth and justice on our side that
did not permit myself to entertain any
doubt of Fremont S success, and when,
after the November election, the re-
turns had all come in,-l would not
abandon hope until | had seen them
all, and our defeat was certain,
felt as if | had suffered an immeasur-
able personal misfortune. 1t was a
stunning blow. Was not this like
the disastrous breakdown of the great
movement for popoular government
on the European continent IN 1848? p?
Was the democratic principle to col
lapse in America, too? 1t took me
some time to recover from my bewiId-
erment and to recognize the fact that
this was only the first battle in a
long campaign-a campaign of many
years.
In the autumn of 1857 the Republi-
cans sent me as delegate to the Re-
publican state convention. A great
surprise awaited me there. | found
that the leading party managers had
selected me as the Republican candi-
date for the office of lieutenant COVER
nor. soon perceived that my nomi-
nation was intended as bid to draw
the German vote to the Republican
party, and as it would serve the anti
slavery cause if it had that effect, |
accepted.
But | h ad my misgivIngs. Would
not the nomination of young and
comparatively unknown newcomer for
so conspicuous and honorable place,
while it might attract some German
votes, displease many voters of Amer
lean birth? Besides, the thought of
making campaign for my principles,
while | had personal stake as can
dIdate for office, was uncomfortable.
The campaign least my share in
twas not ly as spirited as that
of 1856, the Fremont campaign, had
been. However, it was good expert
ence for me, as | made then my first
public speeches in English. My mis-
givings were justified by the result.
While the Republican candidate for
the governorship, Mr., Alexander Ran
dali, was elected by small majorlty,
| was defeated by lot votes.

Make New Ruling.

An example of the contemplate
methods employed by the baking pow
| der Trust to throttle legitimate COM
etltlon has recently been shown in the
oaily press. The Trust has caused to
be printed IN many daily papers d
series of misleading articles attacking
the bak ;ng powders that are fast driv-
ing the high priced Trust powders out
of the market. These Trust articles
appear as pure news reading matter
and are placed among items of news
to deceive the public into thinking
the articles are expressions of the
editor. They are nothing but paid
advertisements. 1t is only by such
deception and chicanery that the Trust
can hoodwink the people into paying
forty6ve to fifty cents a pound for
baking powder. The best baking pow
der in the world can be made to retail
for twenty-five cents a pound, but
by these exorbltant prices the Trust
is able to pay big annual dividends on
the watered stock of their corporation.
The Trust articles state that pre-
miums are given with Calumet Bak-
ing Powder. This is branded as
malicious lie by the Calumet Baking
Powder Company. NO premiums are
needed to sell Calumet. Such con-
temptible methods are what might be
expected from Trust whose principal
stockholdeT was under indictment in
Missouri for bribing members of the
Legislature to keep on the statue books
a law designed to give the Trust
monopoly of the baking powder bust
ness in that state. The Baking. Powder
Trusts so-called "legislative agent
is still fugitive from justice, living
IN foreign country, and dares not
return to the United States.
These attacks cannot injure Calumet
Baking Powder because housewives
know It's true merit. The materials
used are selected with the greatest
care and submitted to rigid analy-
sis; then by the use of modern chemi-
Cal methods So accurately proportIoned
and perfectly mixed that complete
naturalization occurs. Therefore food
with Calumet Baking Powder
does not contain Rochelle Salts, Alum,
Lime or Ammonia; and to go further,
the Calumet Baking Powder Company
back up their statement with an offer
to pay One Thousand Dollars to the
Trust or anyone else if any injurious
substance is found in food prepared
with Calumet. Still further, Calume
Baking Powder complies with the
pure food laws of this an all states.
1t can and has been proven that foods
prepared with the Trust Powders,
Royal, DIR. Prices and Cleveland S
contain Rochelle Salts, the active
ingredient of Seidlitz powder. If
you want to take Rochelle Salts or
Seidlitz powder, do it under the in
struction of physician, but do not
take in your food, as you will if
you eat food prepared with the straight
cream of tartar Trust powders.

weather there has been no dampness
in the barn and that the walls have
remained perfectly dry. Also, that
no frost has appeared on the inside
Of the walls, which demonstrates that
the blocks make better wall than
solid stone, and certainly warmer III
side, for frost cannot penetrate them
owing to the hollow spaces IN the
blocks.
