A Denial from High Authority.

DR.. H. w. Wiley, Chief Chemist OF
the Agricultural Department, has de-
manded of the Calumet Baking Pow
der Company, of Chicago, that 1t
cease the publication Of alleged certi-
ficates or statements that he has en-
dorsed the Calumet Baking Powder,
or reported in favor of its purity,
wholesomeness or superiority. Such
statements, he says, are false.
DR.. Wiley never served upon a
committee Of awards, as alleged, nor
signed a report or certificate, nor did
he ever indorse the Calumet Baking
Powder in any way. on the contrary,
DR.. Wiley testified before Congress.

food, as follows: GAS l have said re-
peatedly, l do not use 1t in my own
home, and would not use alum in

1t seems that DR.. Wiley's demand
that the Calumet Company should
cease hese publications, which are, ne
says, against the truth" was not
complied with, although he says he
has done all he could ito stop the
base and inexcusable use of bis

that his name and official
position should be fraudulently used

Harriet Hill was born near Clifton

Sept. 2, 1910. OF a family Of siz
children, three died in childhood.
The ones living are T. G. Henry,
Denver, Colo, Stuart Henry, New
York City, and Mrs. J. B. Warfeld,
Abilene, with whom she made her
home for more than three years. In
her early married life she united with
the Universalist church at Clifton
Springs, N. Y. Her husband died
Sept. 1867 in Ala 1ama where the
family lived nearly two years. Soon
after his death her oldest son came to
Abilene and in March 1868 the rest
followed. She built the first frame
dwelling house in Abilene which was
located on lots opposite the present
court house. She was closely identi-
fed with all the early history Of abb
lene and lived to see 1t grow from
little cluster Of log cabins and dug
outs to its present fize. She died

The grand lodge Of Kansas meets in
Salina Tuesday and Wednesday Of
next week. This county has about
1000 members who will be represent
cd by their delegates already chosen.
Many things will be done to keep the
order where it has been in Kansas for
the last % years Of its existence. 1t
is The Oldest, and the other fraterni-
ties are largely patterned after it.
The result Of the legislation at Salina
will be watched very closely by the
membership Of all societies Of like
nature. The reserve or emergency
fund feature is somewhat new and 1t
may be safely carried to limited ex-
tent. However, there is serious
doubt II the solidarity Of the secret
societies founded for mutual insur-
ance can handle gigantic fund I'M
less some system Of investment Is
adopted that will conform to the safe
protection of the members who In the
proper sense are depOsitors just the
as bank depoSitors and additional safe
guards should added from time to
time BY the rigid inspection Of the
state or national authorities.
In looking over the X. P. club
rooms and noting the recently added
furniture and other improvements
made, we are convinced that the
members are determined to make this
one Of the most attr ctive features Of
their lodge benefits. The rules Of the
club for lounging rooms and in fact
wherever the authority Of the order
extends prohibit gambling Of every
sort, proiane or indecent language.
In fact the rules are such that they
bespeak clearly settled opinion
among the mem bership that good
fellowship means fellowship with the
good as the most important part Of
the title. 1t is no new growth or
change in sentiment, only 1t has
lately been emphasized ia the devel-
,pment Of plans for the increasing
membership Of the order and the need
or correct standards.
