AS child grows older it requires
more and more personal attention
from the mother. and as the func-
tons Of the bowels are of the utmost
Importance to health, great attention
should be paid to them.
Diet is OF great Importance, and the

ness to thousands, and q wholesome

Rev. Murphy Hears Rumor That La

La CrOSse.--The state vice commits
sion barring the newspaper reporters,
the mayor and the city officers and
all other spectators, launched into a
secret investigation of vice conditions
IN La Crosse from the point of view of
young women employees From tWen-
ty-1ive to thirty clerks in stores and
employees in factories were on hand
and were admitted one at a time to
the committee room. Each girl was
asked what wages she received, who
hef employer was, whether she could

out resorting to vice, whether she was
tempted at her work by her employ
ers or others, and il she resisted the
temptation or succumbed to it,
Nearly all the witnesses were be-
comlngly dressed What their answers
were was not given out, but many of
the young women came out of the
committee room with burning cheeks
and some i'll tears. Others seemed to
consider the inquiries a joke, and
laughed as they came downstairs and
departed for their homes.
Except for the girls testimony the
time was given up to the examination
of three former mayors
Torrance and Dengler-two clergy
men, the Rev. Ambrose Murphy of ST.
James Catholic church, and the Rev.
ID. G. Jones Of the First Presbyterian
church, former Sheriff Chris j. Burns,
County Judge John Brindley, DR.. Ed
ward Evans, one of La Crosses most
eminent physicians, and a half dozen
merchants and manufacturers.
The officials testified to their efforts
to enforce the law, the physician to
diseases and misfOrtunes among
young women in employment, the
county Judge to cases which had come
before him, and the two clergymen
complained of what was alleged lax
law enforcement. The testimony Of
the Rev. Ambrose Murphy, who has
been pastor of a Catholic church here
for twenty-five years, was the most
sensational of the day.
Among other things the Rev. Mr.
Murphy said he had heard a rumor
that one La Crosse manufacturer had
on one occasion required all his girl
employees to parade naked before him.
He gave no names, and said he had
no proof of the story, but suggested it
as something worth looking into.

Calumet the Secret of Economy

The high cost OF living nowadays, and
the way prices are steadily climbing sky
wards, is making economy in the kitchen
even more important than 1t was in the
good old days OF our thrifty ancestors
But how to achieve economy? There's
the rub!
In many lines, It depends almost en-
tirely on the housewives knowledge of
foods and on her WatchfulnesS-bu for
tunately, in one line. baking. economy
can be made almost automatic by the use
Of the famous Calumet Baking Powder.
Economy in baking, as every good cook
knows, depends not so much on economy
in buying the materials as on the success
of her bakings. Failures mean waste
bigger losses by far than the savings she
makes in buying. And the fact that Calu-
met absolutely prevents failures and
makes every baking successful has made
it the favOrite of every cook that seeks
to be economical. In other words, Calu-
met is the secret of economy in baking.
1t is the purest, too-attested by hun
dreds Of leading physicians-and as for
its general quality, it is enough to say
that Calumet has received the highest
awards at two Worlds Pure Food EXPOSE
