Mr.. and Mrs. George Streeter were
driving through here on Wednesday
OF last week. Mr.. Streeter has charge
of the farm next south of the home OF
David Pratt and was there looking
after the crop. Mr.. and Mrs. Streeter
are among the few old settlers yet re-

family is to be a permanent fixture in
this locality. Mr.. G. has bought the
farm next south of the old time Rays
home, now occupied by j. Z. Thorn
bill. We understand he intends to
put up buildings on the land and

he . occupies is to be moved and
used for a granary.

deceived. Hiahest Award.

An article recently appeared attack
ing the genuineness of the award given
Calumet Baking Powder at the Worlds
Pure Food Exposition, held at the Coli
scum in Chicago in 1907, and intimat-
ing that this high award was obtained
by illegitimate means. This article
was not news item. but it positively
was an advertisement in every sense
of the word. Dr. Harvey w. Wileys
name was used in this article to make
1t appear forceful and to create the i'm
preston upon the minds of the public
that he had condemned Calumet Bak-
ing Powder. When the Worlds Pure
Food Exposition of 1907 was organized,
commission on tests, consisting of
IL most eminent scientists Chemists,
psychologists and physicians), was APP
pointed, which had entire control of
the granting of awards.
This commission on tests directed
the chemists as to the nature and ex-
tent of the tests to be applied in the
case of each particular product. The
reports made by the chemists were the
basis of facts upon which the commits
sion granted the awards. Every posi-
BILE safeguard was placed about the
granting of awards, to prevent crook
edness. Under these circumstances
the Calumet Baking Powder company
feels justly proud of having received
the highest award for Calumet Baking
Powder.

 In this Mir. Roosevelt will be a unique figure. He really means to be- come the big boss of New York. not of course in a machine sense, but as a leader of public sentiment. and his fol- lowing at the outset at least will be very considerable. He is an excellent judge of public sentiment and if he succeeds in increasing his following he will assuredly become again a eandi- date for President This may occur in 1912 or in 1916, for in 1916 he will not be quite 60 years old Those who think they will here no more of Theodore Roosevelt after March 1 are certainly reckoning without an ex-President who proposes to be unique out of office.

QUARTER CENTURY OF APPENDI

From the New York World.
 The first typical operation for appen- dicitis appears to have been performed in New York in 1886. In the following year at Philadelphia occurred the first recorded removal of the appendix as a preea autionary measure. Appendicitis sur gerry is thus less than quarter of a cen tury old, and dstinctively American in it's origin and development. The profes- sional standing of the surgeons whose names were associated with the early op- erations, among them Dr. WIT. Bull and Dr. Charles McBurneY, and the promi hence of the first patients gave a wide impetus to the surgical treatment of the disease. How many tens of thousands of appendices were sacrificed to science dur ing the decade from 1890 to 1900 is a sub ject for curious speculation. The first flush of appendicitis surgery has long since passed. The knife is now less often resorted to. having given way to medical and hygienic treatment.
 One regrettable feature of the scare is the survival of a popular fear of grapes, raisins. figs and other seed fruits as predisposing cause of inflammation of the appendix. The foolishness of this view is shown by the fact that of 1000 cases treat ed at Johns Hopkins hospital only four retealed the presence of foreign bodies Far more conducive to appendicitis than food substances are violent exertion ex- posture to cold bruises and digestive dis turbances due to the clogging of the in- testines

STOCK EXCHANGE MANNERS

From the New York World.
 Evidence accumulates of an improved ethical tone on the stock exchange. Fol- lowing the recent sharp disciplining of a broker for a false statement made in his application for admission, long previously, Isador Wormser, Jr., floor trader. was yesterday suspended for period of 60 days for using 'indecorous language"
 Trading practices which necessitate a legislative investigation continue un- checked. but there is swift and stern pun isbment for any infraction of decorum. The shorter and uglier word may go at tbe White House, but not on the stock exchange. A broker addressing another in the language used by w. H. Wander dilt on a historic occasion with reference to the public would do so at the risk of his standing.
 The refinement of manners on the ex- change Is gratifying. Men who have cut throats and scuttled ships have been pro- verbally mild hammered and there is no reason why the gentlemen engaged in similar occupations with respect to rail- roads and stock issues should not observe the proprieties A regard for the ameni- ties of stock-dealing may eventually lead to consideration of it's morals.
