FOR AEALTH's SAKE
GEE THAT YOUR FoopsrUFFs
ARE PURE.
ADULTERArloNs ARE COMMON
interruptions Dealers In Large Cities
the Medium for oisposlng Of
Such 0oods-Purehass
at Home.

For years one Of the matters which
has received the careful attention of
the department Of agriculture is food
adulteration. Who has not heard Of
the old libel on the state Of Connecti-
cut-the wooden nutmeg, but there
are worse things than wooden nut
megs. Unprincipled manufacturers
and dealers for many years have re-
sorted TO adulteration Of foodstuRs to
increase profits. In the matter OF
spices, only short time since the
food commission Of one OF the states
discovered among so samples analysed
more than 30 that we're adulterated.
In pepper. stems and barks were
ground. in every class Of ground
spice foreign substances were added
to give weight. and in numerous cases,
particularly fiavoring extracts. the ar
ticles supposed to be made from pure
fruits. were found to be synthetical.
or entirely artificial preparations
from coal tar.
These goods were prepared by con-
Germs that have no regular trade. but
depend upon agents to sell goods for
them to whoever they can. 1t is rare
house sells such goods. as retailers
will not knowingly keep them In
stock. as they cannot be legally sold.
and some onicer Of the foCd depart.
ment Of the state is likely to drop into
the store at any time. confiscate the
goods. and impose heavy fine on the
dealer.
A short time ago health ofhcers in
Philadelphia found a number OF ltal.
ians In . cellar putting oil In bottles,
and labelling the same with a foreign.
looking label. An analysis of the oil
proved It to be mainly q poor quality
OF cotton-seed oil. and the lowest
grade Of olive. Hundreds Of cases
Of the stun were traced to . city in
the middle west, where 1t was dis.
posed OF under contract to houses who
sell direct to consumers through
agents and by mail. Not alone are
spices. extracts. olive oil and sim.
liar foodstufYs adulterated this way.
but the fraud extends still further.
Cheap kinds Of hsh. such ~ hake. cat.
nah, ETC.. are prepared and placed ON
the market n genuine Goldfish. Toma.
to catsups are made Of q good quality
Of pumpkin and given the right color
by dye stu6s. and navofed by the
use Of coal tar extracts. Hundreds Of
other articles are 'doctored" the same
way. 1t IL rarely that such artificial
goods find their way into the hands
OF regular grocers throughout the
country. but are disposed OF by con.
Germs who depend upon doing bust.
ness at points distant from their loca-
ton. and who seek protection In the
interstate commerce law. and who
seek to dispose Of their goods directly
to the consumers. as no federal or
state ofncer Is likely to call at . pri.
vate house and. make an analysis Of
foods used.
1t seems that neither the national
or state laws can be SO closely as
piled as to prevent this evil. II the
masses Of people would study into this
question the buying OF foods from
others than local dealers. who are
known to be honest. would be the re-.
suit. and the daily reports Of people
being mysteriously poisoned by eating
some article Of food would not be 10
numerous.

RAISE SALARIES
BY 2OPER CENT,
CURTIS SLOGAN
More for Rural Carriers
and Railway Mail
Clerks.

Il am in favor of a 90 per CEN
increase in the salaries of all Gov
ernment clerks, and much larger
increase in the pay now received by
the rural letter carriers and the
railway mail clerks" said Senator
Charles Curtis of Kansas last night.
Senator Curtis believes in grant
ing the increase in salaries asked
for by the clerks because, as he
says. it is not only fair and just, but
because of the high prices demanded
for foodstuffs.
THE increase of 20 per cent, -
added Senator Curtis, should apply
to all clerks whose salaries are less
than $1,000 per annum. 1t is the
clerk of small pay doing practically,
in many instances, the same char
acter of work as the high salaried
clerk who needs the increase and
deserves it. And the rural letter
carrier and the railway mail clerk
should have larger increase than
20 per cent.
while 1 do not care TO single ont any
particular department. l cannot rt,srain
from calling attention to the clerks of
the Patent Office. who are the poorest
paid and, may say. the hardest worked
of any employees in the civil service.
The salaries of all of the Patent Office
employees should be readjusted if JUS
uce Is 70 be given them.
As an instance of injustice. or per
haps it were better 10 say. the system
Of grades, my attention was called the
other day to the case of young woman
stenographer and typewriter. an expert
am told. who was appointed to a no.
sition in the classified service at a salary
of $40 a month. while in the same d.
vision or bureau. another stenographer
and typewriter. doing similar work. re-
ceived 800 a month. OF course the in
crease Of 20 per cent will not correct
inequalities of this character. but II viii
help the clerks some. and I should like
an opportunity to vote for the bill at

EVELYN THAW
WILL RESUME
STAND MONDAY
Course Decided After
Lengthy Conference
of Counsel for
Accused.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Evelyn Nes-
bit Thaw will probably be called as
the first witness Monday morning
when the trial of her husband.
Harry X. Thaw, for the murder of
Stanford White is continued before
Justice Fitzgerald.
This was announced after an aft
ernoon of consultation between the
profiigate young Pittsburg million
aire, his counsel, and his wife.
1t is said that Mrs. Thaw will tell
Monday that Thaw told her. in the
hearing of DIR. Brinton B. Evans. the
alienist, that he had to kill White.
and that Providence had shown him
the only way to end his troubles.
Thaw's last words were: II have
tried for long time to put the
brute behind the bars. / was still
trying when suddenly Providence
showed me the way to end it., L
had to kill him. That was the only
way. and l dio as Providence told
me to do"
The words are regarded as signif-
cant, as showing that Thaw labored
under the deiusion that he was di-
rected to kill White by a force
higher than himself.
Reasons FOR the Conference.
The conference of the Thaw ATTORNEYS
today was the result of the publication
that Mrs. Thaw had been connected
with the action for divorce brought bv
his wife against George W. I.ederer. the
theatrical manager. She was named as
correspondent. but her name was elm
mated. Attorney Delmas wanted to
clear up the whole matter and staye off
any possible embarrassing cross-ques-
uoning Cf her on this subject by the
prosecute. The meeting resolved itself
into a general discussion OF plans.
Besides Mr. Delmas, those present at
the Tombs conference we're Dan Orch
ly, Henry &. McPike. and Russell Pea
body, Of counsel: the man on trial for
MS life and Mrs. Evelyn Thaw. who had
peen brought to the Tombs from MIR.
1t was said that Dr.. Evans will not
be put back on the stand again i'm
mediately but Evelyn will finish her
story. thus making it possible TO in
trodpce fhaT's win in evidence.
