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.
But, 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 it 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 alb
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 unpalatable.
They are not always of uniform strength
and quality.
Now the bride buys Calumet-the per-
fectly wholesome baking powder, moder-
ate in price, and always uniform and re-
liable. Calumet keeps indefinitely, makes
cooking easy, and is certainly the most
economical after I'll.

VIZ ASHINGTON.-The craze for sta
W tistics has invaded the most
sacred of precincts. It has attacked,
assaulted, indicted and convinced the
most parlous of statisticians them
selves-the members of congress.
Proof, by statistics furnished right
on the floor of the house, that the
speeches there cost more than the
total amounts OF many of the items
under discussion has left the entire
aggregation in chronic terror that,
when their most t1owery orations are
being speeded on their way to the
morgue Of the Congressional Record
some treacherous antagonist may
arise, reverse his cuffs and read off
evidence that the honorable gentle
mans silence would be golden.
Like the famous discovery of dry
farming in the west, because of the
footprint Of a mule, the economy of
words in congress was precipitated by
horseshoes.
The state department had an item

utensil of this kind is manifest. In
the first place, 1t saves fuel because
two things can be cooked over one

THE HoRSELEss AGE.

Though often spoken of as though
it were at our very doors, the horse
less age is far in the future, if the
statistics presented by the Live Stock
Journal have been correctly made
up. 1t is small wonder that when
so many automobiles are seen sour
rying about daily and when so many
people of all classes own the vehicles.
there being $4,000 machines in Mas
sachusetts alone, the passing of the
horse is taken for thing all but &C.
complished. But there are some
horses yet. In fact, there are more
horses now than there ever were be-
fore in the country; there was never
so great demand for horses of all
classes, and the value of horsefesh
is many times that of all the autos
made annually. The value of the
horse is probably several times the
value of all the automobiles in the
country.

REMINDED HIM OF A COMET
Astronomers Comment on Man Who

Thevisitof Hatiey's comet recalls
an incident that took place many
years ago, when another. great comet
was visible -uightly&in the sky. IA
wel1-known astronomer and mathe-
-matician was on his way home one
sevening, after havingzspent an hour
or two in an observatory, looking
through a telescope at the celestial
wanderer.
Directly opposite him in the car
sat man with loud voice, whose
transformation, concerning comets
would have supplied the material for
library, and who appeared to be
talking for the benefit of all the pas
sengers. The astronomer listened
patiently for time. Then be said
in low tone to the man sitting
next to him:
Sour friend on the other side of
the aisle reminds me; somewhat of
comet himself"

CALAIS ANDITS LIGHTHOUSE.

Calais is rather an untidy place
for a French town. The Place
d'Armes, where the tower of the Ho-
tel de Vile has remained since the
fifteenth century, is the center spot.
Here Calais meets its friends and
has its cafe noir. In the square,
towering out of the roofs of sur
rounding houses and dwaring them,
is the old Watch tower. Since 1S4s
it has been superseded as c light
house by the magnificent one at pres
ent in use. Never shall l forget the
effect of this lighthouse as I stood
under it that night. The revolving
spokes of light cast away into filmy
space, in all directions, looked like
the ribs of huge umbrella being
turned by the white handle, which
was the lighthouse tower. So tall is
this that its revolving light can be
seen from a distance of 20 miles at
sea.-Wide World Magazine.

An English physician calls iatten-

making Of BEDS namely, the custom
of throwing back the-bed clothes in
the morning ''to air the bed" over
-thesbsck rail of the sbedstead aor over
a chair placed at the foot of the
bed The very part of The bed

thus thrown OF drops down into de

may be clean or may not be so, and
if the passage at the foot of the bed
is not very wide anybody going up
stairs with dirty slippers OF boots be-
fore the bed is remade, and passing
round the end of the bed would also
probably trample on the part that
comes in contact with ones mouth
at night time. The writer suggests
that to avoid this danger the foot
rail of the bedstead should be arti-
fcially raised in height by another
rail somewhat in the form of CAPT.

Southey probably deserves to rank
as the most Industrious of authors.
In the greater part of his life he
spent Is hours a day in composition.
He had six tables in his library. He
wrote poetry at one, history at an
other, criticism at a third, and so on
with the other subjects upon which
he was engaged. He once described
to Nine. de Stael the division of his
time: Two hours before breakfast
for history, two hours for reading
after, two hours for the composition
of poetry, two hours for criticism,
and so on through all his working
day. "And pray, Mr.. Southey, ]"
