Parker wrote to me to come to

could not see how he could grant
my wife a divorce under those
circumstances. / begged him to do
so, however, as favor to me, and
he consented-however, allowing
me to keep the children.
"Of course regret the public
ity which this affair has aroused,
especially when falsehoods are
recklessly INDUCED in. I am

BAKING ECONOMY

By the use of perfect baking pow
der the housewife can derive as much
economy as from any other article
used in baking and cooking. In Sc
lecting a baking powder therefore care
should be exercised to purchase one
that retains it's original strength
and always remains the same, thus
making the food sweet and whole
some, and producing sufficient heaven
ing 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 quantity ordinarily required
to secure good results.
You cannot experiment every time
you make a cake or biscuits, or test
the strength of your baking powder
to find out how much of it you should
use; yet with most baking powders
you should do this, for they are put
together so carelessly they are new
er uniform, the quality and strength
varying with each can purchased.
Calumet Baking Powder is made
of chemically pure ingredients of tes-
ted strength. Experienced chemists
put it up. The proportions of the
different materials remain always
the same. Sealed in alright cans,
Calumet Baking powder does not al
ter in strength and is not affected
by atmospheric changes.
In using Calumet you are bound to
have uniform bread, cake or biscuits,
as Calumet does not contain any
cheap, useless or adulterated ingredi-
ents so commonly used to increase
the weight. Further, it produces pure
wholesome food and is a baking pow
der of rare merit; therefore, is re-
commended by leading physicians
and chemists. It complies with all
pure food laws, both STATE and
NATIONAL. The goods are moder-
ate in price, and any lady purchasing
Calumet from her grocer, if not sat
lsfled with it can return it and have.
her money refunded.
