STOCK co. MAKES HIT.

The Maxwell-Hall stock company
opened a six days engagement at the
Towle opera house last night to an au-
dience that taxed the capacity of the
house and hundreds were turned away.
This company is far above the average.
and we predict a record week.
Miss Gertrude Maitland won her au-
dience on her first entrance and was
applauded continually throughout the
play Her beautiful gowns. her per-
feet form, her sweet face and her Won
derful voice stamps her as one Of the
cleverest actresses that have ever been
seen at the head OF a stock company.
The specialties between the acts,
which were numerous, made a big hit
and were called back many times.
Miss Ethel May. the mystery girl.
gave the same clever performance of
answering questions. and we are
promised much fun and amusement be-
fore the end of the week.

A QUESTION OF CLASS

The cost to make an alum baking
piwder is about two cents a pound.
When this powder is sold at 25 rents a
pound it would not appear to the av-
erage consumer as a high grade bak-
ing powder sold at a moderate price. .
but rather as very low grade baking
powder sold al a high price. The
twenty three cents profit on a two-cent
article Is not, however. so important
as the fact that the chief ingredient OF
the 25-cent baking powder is alum a
