THE HIGH COST
OF LIVING REDUCED

Much has been said about the
high cost if living, its causes. and
the possibilities of it's reduction.
But little has been said about the
most costly leak: the false economy
existing to-day in nearly every
household.
Much foodstuffs are bought with
but one point in view: "How
cheap can I get it?'' without a
thought Of quality or latter COST"
One Of the most serious is baking
powder.
By the use Of perfect baking
! powder the housewife can derive as
much economy as from any other ar
ticle used in baking and cooking.
In selecting the baking powder,
therefore, care should be exercised
to purchase one that retains its
original strength and always re-
mains the same, thus making the
food sweet and wholesome and pro-
ducing sufficient leavening gas to
make the baking light.
Very little of this leavening gas
is produced by the cheap baking
powders, making it necessary to
use double the quantity ordinarily
required to secure good results.
You cannot experiment every
time you make cake or biscuits,
or test the strength of your baking
powder to find out how much of it
you should use; yet with most bak-
ing powders you should do this for
they are put together so carelessly
they are never uniform, the quality
and strength varying with each can
purchased.
Calumet Baking Powder IS made
Of chemically pure ingredients of
tested strength. Elk perienc e d
chemists put it up. The proper
tions of the different materials re-
main always the same. Sealed in
alright cans. Calumet Baking
Powder does not alter in strength
and is not affected by atmospheric
changes.
In using Calumet you are bound
to have uniform bread, cake or bis
cults, as Calumet does not contain
any cheap. useless or adulterating
ingredients so commonly used to

therefore, is recommended by lead

The goods are moderate in price,
and any lady purchasing Calumet
from her grocer, if not satisfied
with it, can return it and have he,

COL. WILLIAM J. HAMPTON

Just when the wise men are assuring us
that Halley's comet is going to do any
thing to this old world of ours. we are
startled by the intelligence that comes
from the Blue Grass state that William j.
hampton of New York city-poet, bohem-
ian and bachelor-has been made a full
hedged colonel.
1t seems that Governor Willson-"thats
all'-of Kentucky made the discovery one
March day that he needed a man his
gubernatorial staff who could do some
lighting in Manhattan. Now, hampton
has been fighting for years to get his
stuff in the newspapers and he has been
successful in some of these struggles The
governor, hearing only of the successes,
appointed Hampton to position on his
staff, with the title of colonel.
hampton is Kentuckan born and bred
He stands six feet three inches in his un
sheathed feet, and If his legs didn't bow
his head would be up higher still. He has
a beard which is a cross between an
agrette and a Rubberset shaving brush,
and has a nerve which is really sublime.
He wears his new-found honor little un-
easily at present, but in time, no doubt
it will become natural to him as
Pittsburg stogie.
Bill and the editor of the Statesman
have been bosom friends for years, and
have Travelled much together in this coun-
try and Canada, but whether Bilrs new
honor will tend to chest-expanson to such
a degree that he will refuse to go about
with anyone without the appendage of
military title remains to be seen.
OF course, we were surprised to hear of
LamptonS appointment, Dut Will De Hlore
surprised to learn of Bill getting into an
engagement, either military or matrimonial
although we do not want 1t understood
that we believe Bill is afraid of any kind
Of old white powder that was ever made.
Well, Bill
You're that still
To me!
By Geei
You sure lucky
To have been born in Kentucky.
But tell this. Bill,
Aren't you skeered
To get grape and canister
Mixed in your bilygoat beard?
But let's go slow;
If the shots fall low,
Between your legs they'll go.
For the legs ON the bow
That's so,
You know.
And by the Eternal!
You'll Kaintucky colonel!
Well, I'll be candid
I'm glad you've landed.
And say. Bill,
If you will,

And write to the governor and ask him
to make something, If it's only a
