THOSE PRETTY COLoRED FOODS
Coloring oj Foods an Art Highly De
Vcloped Any Old Kind of Refuse
MaGv 70 Look Luscious.

Washington, Oct. 26.--An epoch in
the food supplies of Americans will be
l.sarkcd by New Years Day, 1907. On
that dair the pure food law will be-
come effective. II practically, in
many respects, will rcvolutionizc the
preparation Of food sturfs intended
for sale in this country. Appearance
or goods and kinds Of foods that all of
us have hccn accustomed to in past
either will pass out of existence or
will be SO changed as To be almost un-
recognizable.
Under the new law and under the
regulations which have been adopted
to make il effective, the lovely color
lngs which therefore, have been used
to make various foods and lellcacics
particularly attractive will be elimin
ted from all food products. No chem
malmc--will be permitted in the pre-
laration Of foods and no substance
may be employed to improve the fla
v"r or the appearance Of any foods
that Is considered by the agricultural
department experts to be lclctcrious
to health.
Heretofore. the colorny of foods
has been al art studied to an extent
even greater than the hcalthfulncss

ENORMOUS COINS.

When the area and square inches OF
surface are taken into consideration, the
largest coins ever Issued by any govern
ment on the globe were those put into
circulation by Sweden during the six
teenth century. These mammoth pieces
are neither round, square oval nor oc-
tagon In shape, but are great Irregular
slabs OF copper described as resembling
pieces OF a boiler after an explosion.
The smallest piece issued under the law
which authorized this gigantic coinage
was an irregular rectangular slab or
about twelve square inches OF surface
and about half an inch thick. II was
worth 80 cents The largest of the same
series was about n foot square and had
face value OF 81 Each OF these copper
slabs is stamped IN several places on the
face. the various inscriptions giving the
date, denomination. etc. The four dollar
piece mentioned last above is nearly an
inch in thickness and weighs four pounds,
lacking fraction.

THE MUSTER.

Striking and imposing was the procession OF
veteran hremens organizations composing the
New England league, which passed through the
down town thoroughfares today previous to going
TO Dexter training field for the payout.
Little less striking the tens of thousands
OF visitors TO the city massed along the route of
in their lives. 1t orderly and well-con-
Quoted throng that applauded the fire fighters of
days gone by, and witnessed their contests at the
brakes with interest keen that it was often
manifested in hearty cheers.
Finer weather for the muster could not be
wished Bright skies and balmy atmosphere
made marching pleasurabe rather than discom-
fortng and the general decoration OF business
buildings gave the visiting fremen indication
of the cordality OF their welcome
The arrangements of the committee in charge
entirely adequate and the parade and the
play-out that followed were marred by no unto
ward happening.
1t is certainly a great day for Providence.
Probably 100000 visitors within its gates All
are enjoying themselves and are prasing Rhode
Island hospitality. Merchants are doing an in
creased business and tomorrow the larger bank
deposits will show what benefit financially the
muster has been
But for the success OF this demonstration the
peanut politicians at the city hall need claim no
credit, for none will be given them The petty
partisan spirit which caused a refusal to appro-
pirate the small sum of $1,000 asked by the com
mittee will not be forgotten, however when the
veterans and their friends go to the polls next
November.

The highest price ever paid for po-

night at dinner in London Strachan,
with what old age and gout, was the most

But his mind was exceedingly powerful

lowing doggerel about the old man:

THE superintendent made an actual
count OF 5000 young bass about an inch
long and placed them In a fry pond Dy

times a day. and. according TO ms
statement, each fish ate on an average
three times its own weight OF the pre-
pared food every twenty-four hours.
They were placed I'm pond on the lst
of July and on oct 1st, when they were
taken out, there were only 1900. and the
record showed that less than 200 died

WHY THUNDER
SOURS MILK.

To many persons the curdling or milk
in a thunderstorm Is n mysterious and
unintelligible phenomenon. Yet the whole
process really is simple and natural MIX
like most other substances, contains mill
lions OF bacteria. The milk bacteria that
In a day or two under natural conditions
would cause the fluid TO sour are pc
culiarly susceptible to electricity. Elsc-
tricity inspirts and nvigorates them, af-
fecting them as alcohol. cocaine or strong
tea affects men. Under the currents IN
fuence they fall TO work with amazing
energy, and instead OF taking couple OF
days to sour the milk they accomplish
the task completely In halt hour. with
an electric battery II is easy on the same
nrinciple TO sour the freshest milk.
