invested largely in land and where
he and his family will hereafter re-
side. The ranch is several miles
from Glepdive and Mrs. Christie and
her daughters will live in that city
so that Miss Carrie may have the adj

be found in the northwest. Miss
Carrie left for Montana some three
weeks ago and entered upon her
school duties at the beginning of the
term. Mrs. Christie departed Satur-

The HighCostofLivinq Reduced

Much has been said about the
high cost of living, it's causes and
the possibilities of it's reduction.
But little has been said abOutthe
most costly leak: the false econo-
my existing today in nearly
every household.
Much fOOdStuffS are bOugh with but one
point in veiw: "How cheap can [ get it?' with
out a thought OF quality or latter cost" One
Of the most serious is baking powder. By the
use of perfect baking powderthe housewife can
derive as much economy as from any other
article used in baking and cooking. In select
ing the baking powder, therefore, care should
be exercised to purchase one that remains it's
original strength and always retains the same,
thus making the food sweet and wholesome
and producing sufficient leavening gas to
make the baking light.
Very little Of this leavening gas is produced
by the cheap baking powders, making it neces.
saIy to use double the quantity ordinarily re-
CURED to secure good results.
You can~notexperiment every lime 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 never uniform, the quality
and strength varying with each can purchased.
Calumet Baking Powder is made of chemically pure ingredients
of tested strength. Experienced chemists put it up. The proportions
of the different materials remain always the same. Sealed in air.
tight cans, Calumet Baking Powder does not alter in strength and is
not affected by atmospheric changes.
In using Calumet you ar bound to have uniform bread. cake or
biscuits, a Calumet does not contain any cheap, useless o II aduherat
ing ingredients o commonly used to increase the weight Further it
produces pure, wholesome food, and is a baking powder of are merit;
therefore is recommended by leading physicians and chemists 1t com
plies with pure food laws, STATE and NATIONAL. The goods are
moderate in price, and any lady purchasing Calumet from her grocer,
if not satisfied with ii, a return it and have her money refunded.
The manufacturers of Calumet Baking Powder have just prepared
a lew edition of their handsome Cook Book, and will gladly mail it
FREE to anyone who sends for it In writing address the Calumet
Baking Powder Co, Chicago, and ask for Cook Book Cd.
