Philadelphia March 6.-According TO de-
tective headquarters in this city, the mys-
terry OF the disappearance Of Dorothy Ar
mold, IL It Is ever solved. will be solved In
Philadelphia The assertion Of Or. Edward
Smythe, Of Lansdowne, made this after
noon, that he had met and talked with the
missing New York young woman In Broad
street shortly before Christmas strengthens
the belief that the young woman is in
Philadelphia now.
Or. Smythe, who met the young woman
when both were guests OF Miss Susanne
Cooper, of Media, Penn, & year and half
ago, when asked tonight why he did not
report having seen her said that 1t was
not until six weeks later that the family
made her disappearance known. Then, he
said. he reported IL TO the police. The lat

only one of many clews that were given
them.
DR.. Smythe says the young woman
greeted him warmly and seemed TO be
waiting for some one. She said she was
here on visit and would return to New

A PROTEST IN ENGLAND
Viscount Morley Dispels Fears
Regarding Annexation.

London. March e-Lord Ampthl raised
discussion of American and Canadian reci-
rrocity in the House Of Lords this evening
nv strongly condemning what he termed
the inaction of the government, which. he
said. had forced Canada TO abandon her
national policy and offer 70 the United
States some of the advantages which she
had SO freely given to Great Britain.
Commercial union between the United
states and Canada, he thought, must also
moan nolitical union. The astounding
situation created" he said. was that re-
sponsible statesmen in foreign country
have spoken openly in their parliament Of
the future annexation of a portion of the
Crowns domains without protest from
this country"
Viscount Morley warmly defended both
the government and Ambassador Bryce,
saying that criticism of the latter was
grossly unjust The assistance which he
had rendered Canada had been gratefully
recognized. although he had not taken part
in tho actual negotiations.
THE most responsible statesmen In both
America and Canada" said Viscount Nor
ley, have laughed at the talk of annexa-
ton" lie added that the papers on the
subject soon would be at hand, and would
show that the action of the British AM
bassador was justified by precedent ano
did not constitute new departure. On the
promise that all the papers having to do
with the negotiations between Washington
End Ottawa would be produced, the discus
sion was dropped
London, March THE Times says edi-
torially: I'VE cannot tell how far the
sporadically raised cry of annexation is In
ffuencing Canadian opinion, but there is no
reason 10 suppose that the reciprocity
agreement would produce any tendency in
that direction On the contrary, bargain
ing on equal terms with the United States
might tend TO foster rather than diminish
the self-rehance and independence of the
Canadian people"

THE YOUNG BRIDES
FIRST DISCOVERY

Their wedding tour had ended, and
they entered their new home to settle
down to what they hoped to be one long
uninterrupted blissful honeymoon.
BIT, alas! the young brides troubles
soon begin, when she tried to reduce the
cost of living with cheap big can baking
powders.
She soon discovered that all she got
was lot for her money, and IL was not
all baking powder, for the bulk Of it was
cheap materials which had no leavening
power. Such powders will not make light,
wholesome food. And because of the abb
sence of leavening gas, it requires from
two or three times as much to raise cakes
or biscuits as it does of Calumet Baking
Powder.
Thus, eventually, the actual cost to
you, Of cheap baking powders. is more
than Calumet would be.
Cheap baking powders often leave the
bread bleached and acid, sometimes yell
low and alkaline. and often unpaliGablt.
They are not always Of uniform strength
and quality.
Now the bride buys Calumet--the per-
fectly wholesome baking powder, modcr-
ate in price, and always uniform and re-
liable. Calumet keeps indefinitely, makes
cooking easy, and is certainly the most
economical after all.
