GRADUATED FROM THE ..
INCUBATOR INSTITUTE

!, Mrs. segner, matron of the infant
incubator . institute at Wonderland
park, held an interesting recep-
ton yesterday. The park closed it's sea-
son " Sunday, and seven bouncing
babies, all Of them apparently robust,
are being turned over to happy par
ents. They were all of premature
birth, received at the incubator when
their weights were such as to make
the probabilities Of living almost nil.
What has been accomplished by the
artificial motherhood treatment, can be
Judged from the following statistics:
A girl, weight l pound 6 ounces at
the institute nine weeks ago, now
weighs 5 pounds; boy, weighing ]
pound Z ounces nine weeks ago.. now
weighs 81 pounds; girl that weighed
2 pounds twelve weeks ago, now weighs
Z pounds; girl, weight six weeks ago,
/ pound 2 ounces, now weighs AZ
pounds; girl, weighing 2 pounds when
received at the institute sixteen weeks
ago, now weighs II pounds; boy weigh
ing 2 pounds 2 ounces when received
now weighs 1919 pounds after ffteer
weeks at the institute; girl, who
weighed pound Is ounces ten week!
ago, now weighs 9 Y pounds. All OF
these cases were Of immature birth.

lrvinR'S Indian Mounds.

The Litchfeld Independent, in
speaking of the Indian mounds at Irv-
ing, where Rev. Gates and Peter Free
berg of this city have recently been
digging in the hope of finding relics,
says:
One or more of the mounds on the
east shore of Green Lake were dug in
to by a. party of Litchfield men many
years ago. A. T. Koerner, Judge
Harris and W. D. Joubert were of the
party, if we are not mistaken. They
found pottery, stone implements and
skeletons. The mounds above alluded
to number several dozens, of various
sizes, mostly round though one or two
are oblong. The mounds are found
near the outlet of the lake, on the east
shore. At Lake Koronis, also near
the outlet of that lake and on the
southeast shore, are found about fiji
teen or twenty similar mounds. One
of them, on the top of Bear Hill, a
high knoll about quarter of mile
from the lake shore, is some ten to fiji
teen feet high, and represents a vast
amount of labor in carrying the great
quantities of earth up the hill from
the lower ground.

NO one WOULD EAT ALUM
Food that Contains Alum or an Alum
Residue is unheaIthfuI.

Here is some interesting evidence
upon the alum baking powder subject:
Prof. A. S. Mitchell, of Milwaukee,
late chemist to the Wisconsin Dairy
and Food Commission, in testifying
before the Congressional Committee,
which was collecting information to
aid in the matter of pure food legisla-
ton, said that there was no question
but the tendency of the chemical i'm
purities which would remain in food
made with alum baking powders
would be deleterious. AS to the claim
made by the manufacturers that alum
powders left no alum in the food, he
said he had failed to find any such
powders which, in the ordinary pro-
cess Of cooking, would not leave some
soluble alum in the food.
Doctor Schweitzer, the accomplished
professor of chemistry at the UNIVERSE
ty of Missouri, after series of exper-
iments with bread raised with alum
baking powder, reported: "Careful
analysis of the bread thus prepared
shows portion of the alum from the
baking powders remaining in the
bread as such and unaltered."
The fact that alum if taken with
food into the stomach would be injur-
ious is not questioned or disputed by
any one. AS scientific evidence would
seem to prove that when food is raised
with alum baking powder some part
of the alum remains in the food, the
prudent course for the housewife is
apparent.

Married at Buffalo.

At Buffalo yesterday was culmina-
