It Pleased Him

The other day careless mason, says Tit Bits, dropped brick from the sec ond story of a building on which he was at work. Leaning over the wall and looking down he saw respectable citizen with his hat iammed over his eyes. The mason, in tones of apprehen- sion, asked:
 "Did the brick hit anyone down there?"
 The citizen, with great difficulty ex- tricated himself from the extinguisher into which his hat had been transform ed, replied with considerable warmth:
 "Yes, sir, it did; it hit me-"
 "That's right" exclaimed the mason, in tones of undisguised admiration, "Noble man! I would rather have wasted thousand bricks than have you tell me lie about it."

THE FOOD YOU EAT.

The average consumer of baking
powder does not know that a reaction
occurs in the process of baking.
Whenever a chemical reaction takes
place, the nature of the original ma
terials is entirely changed, so that
the substances which remain in the
food to be eaten are very different
from those which composed the bak-
ing powder before baking. For this
reason the statement that baking
powder contains alum or cream of
tartar is worthless SO far as inform
ing the consumer as to what he eats.
What the consumer wants to know is
what goes into his stomach, not what
is in the can. Food prepared with
a cream of tartar baking powder
does not contain any cream of tartar,
just as food prepared with alum bak-
ing powder is free from alum. Some
baking powders leave large quantities
of Rochelle Salts in the food, which
is a dangerous drug and is produced
by the chemical combination of
bicarbonate of soda and cream of tar
tar; others leave lime, ammonia, etc.
Calumet Baking Powder has been
for SO many years the standard of all
that is good in baking powder that
its purity needs no defense. There is
just enc fact that will bring this point
forcibly to the readers mind. This
state, in common with nearly every
other state in the Union, now has a
very stringent pure food law which in
no uncertain terms prohibits the
manufacture and sale of any food sub
stances injurious to health. Calumet
Baking Powder complies with the
pure food laws of this and all other
states.
Why should the consumer pay forty
five or fifty cents per pound for bak-
ing powder, when the best baking
powder in the world can be made to
retail at twenty-fv cents per pound
(the price asked for Calumet Baking
Powder) and leave a fair manufac-
turer's profit? The manufacturers of
Calumet Baking Powder have for
years made standing offer of 81, 600.
90 for any substance injurious to
health found in food prepared from it.
Bread made from Calumet is entire
ly free from Rochelle Salts, Alum,
Lime Ammonia or any injurious sub
stance; therefore it is recommended
by leading physicians and chemists.

MANILA SEE GHOSTS.
Spirituallst and Fortune Teller Fairly
Capture our Neighbors.

A spiritualist and fortune teller
travelling under the name of Max
Hoffman, and giving his permanent
address as Des Moines, billed the
town for lecture and seance at the
opera house last Friday evening. His
audience was not large but he sue
ceeded in convincing those present of
his powers SO strongly that his fame
spread greatly the following day dur
ing which he held out at the Gardner
House and peered into the future of
his visitors at $2-per peer. From
the number who availed themselves
of the opportunity to look behind the
mystic veil, it is estimated that his
seership took not less than $50. out
of the town. This may, at first
thought, seem like a good sized sum
to pick up in so short a time and APP
parently so easily, but it should be
borne in mind that if Mr.. Hoffman
has the power he claims and that his
patrons seem convinced he possesses,
his profits are infnitesimly small in
comparison with the great good he
has doubtless done in the place. The
value cannot be overestimated of
having ones future revealed so that
it is possible to foresee all coming
events and thus be enabled to make
the best of life by taking advantage
of and preparing for them in advance.
1t will be we'll for the doubling
Thomases to keep an eye upon those
who availed themselves of the oppor-
tunity of consulting Mr.. Hoffman.
There is no reason why they shouldn't
all become millionaires now in very
short time. Manila Republican.
