A Word to the Wise is Sufficient.

II has just come to our notice that
many housekeepers have been induced
to purchase an inferior phosphate bak-
ing powder selling at % cents per pound.
II these same people knew that this
class of baking powder was made from
burned bones mixed with a solution of
oil of vitriol and containing alum, they
would be surprised to say the least.
Always read the label and see that it
reads cream OF tartar, soda and starch.

understand you, In which Mr..
Evans tried to dissuade you from
making the loan?
A. | think there Is one way | can
Tx it II can see that escrow again
(Mr. Huntingon hands witness paper)
(witness continuingl He referred in
this con onversatiou to the escrow and
| declined to answer his questions
about the escrow; the escrow is dat
ed the 18th of Decent Der, 1894. so il
is probably that date that the con-
versation occurred.
Q. About when?
A. The 10Th of Decebmer, 1904, is
the date of the escrow; think the
conversation occurred about that
date.
Q. Let me refresh your memory.
Did not Mr.. Evens in the CONVEX sa-
tion, now, call your attention by say
ing that the property was not worth
what 1t was represented to Sbe aud
that this was scheme Of Mr.. Butler
to unload his Indebtedness and the
indebtedness OF the company to But.
lerp
A. / think Mr.. Evans thought that
the property was worth much less
than 1t was represented; do not
recollect his telling me it was
scheme of Mr.. Butler to unload.
Q. Was anything said to you about
these contracts before they were is
sued by anyone?
A. | don't think so; think in re-
CARDS to that escrow, his curiosity
vas somewhat aroused to know what
it meant and we talked something
about that, but Mr.. Davidson knew
what he was doing.
Q What did you say in connection
with that?
A. 10 my recollection, why, l told
him that it was very good thug he
had to make all the friends he could.

WILKES TESTIMONY.
Chief of the Secret Service Before
House Committee.

Washington. Feb. 3.-That IL has been
possible for the various departments OF
the government to obtain the services OF
the secret service men in spite of the re-
strictions placed upon the secret service
by the amendment to the sundry appro-
pristion bill last year, is apparent from the
testimony of Chief Wiikie, made today
before a subcommittee of the house COM
mittee on appropriations. Apparently,
however, the outside use of the men was
limited
The testimony indicates that the amend
ment does not entirely restrict.
Mr. Wilkie stated that one man was as
signed from the secret service to the navy
department 10 investigate theft IN the
navy ward at Norfolk, Va, and anotner
to the state department to investigate the
Mexican revolutionists Both men are
carried on the secret rolls of the secret
service but are paid by the departments
to which they have been assigned.
Another case brought out is that of the
assignment of the men to accompany
President-elect Taft, for which there Is
no provision in law Mr. Wilkie claimed
that the assignment in this instance was
justified I'm that the secret service would
probably be held responsible for Mr. la1t
safety if no measure for protection were
taken.
Declaring that a period Of financial and
commercial depression increases counter
feiting. Chief Wilkie asked for an increase
of $4,000 in the annual appropriation tor
this service. He declared that as result
Of the limitations imposed on the secret
service nine men have been dropped since
July, some of them now being in the en-
ploy of the department Of justice as spe-
cial agents
Mr.. WiIkie advocated a central detec-
tive bureau in the department of justice
which would do the detective work for all
of the government departments.

WiIkie. that no member of the secret
