DIR TRUE'S ELIXIR.

1t can be authortatvely stated that. not

price of drugs on account of the European
War. at least one old reliable medicine, DR..
True's Elixir. will not be increased in price,
Perhaps nowhere has the scourge of the war
been more keenly felt in this country than on
drug prices. This is natural consequence
since many of the drugs used in making medi
cines are imported and since the first of Aug
ust these importations have totally stopped
Prices quickly advanced. Some have been
doubled, others have risen five hundred, eight
list of ten common drugs, all largely used in
compromising medicines, the prices have i'd
vanced on an average of over 500 per cent.
The DR.. ]. F. True Co maker of DR.. True's
Elixir, has been hard hit. 1t is fact that
nearly every ingredient used in compromising
the famous Elixir has advanced in price, some
of The more important items going up in
jumps, but they have determined that on no
account will the Elixir be advanced in price.
This will be welcome news to many family
where DIR. True's Elixir has long been a stand
ard household remedy. 1t will continue to be
sold by dealers generally at the same old
prices of 35c, SOC and $40 Ia bottle.

An Opportunity for
Household Economy

The great advance in price of cream Of tartar
which is derived from grapes to inability to
care for and market the grape crop in the European
countries now at war, can be made advantageous to
the housewives of New England.
Housekeepers will find it more economical
and much more satisfactory to use Royal Baking
Powder which is made from highly refined, pure
cream of tartar First because the price of Royal
has not been changed and it will do perfect work;
second, because food made with Royal Baking
Powder will be finer and more palatable; and
finally because it insures the absence OF all danger
from alum or similar unwhoesome products
The old-fashioned custom Of buying cream Of
tartar and mixing it with soda, using sour milk.
may be discarded with profit. The high cost and
scarcity of cream of tartar furnishes temptation
to INSCRIPTIONS dealers to substitute adulterated
product, which may be either lime phosphates or
alum, that will change the baking strength and
may spoil the food.

DIES RECITING SCRIPTURE.
"Together in One, All Things il
Christ" lpope's Last Words.

Rome, Aug. 20.-"Together in oIe,
all things in Christ" These words,
which Pope Plus X adopted as his
motto in an encyclical issued on
August, 10, 1903, six days after ne
had been elevated to the pontificate,
were on his lips as he entered the
valley of death.
The end was peaceful. A few mo-
ments before he had been reused
from a state of emi-coasclousness.
and he attempted to bestow a bless
ing upon those gathered in the cham
Der. but his strength failed him. Al
ter pause he murmured the scrip
tural text and did not speak again.
The papal secretary OF state, Naroi-
nal Merry del Val, Cardinals Ferrata,
Cagiano and Misleti, the pope's tWo
sisters and physicians who were at
the bedside, recognized the calm pre-
ceding eternal rest. DR.. Marchla-
faya his hand on the pontiff's pulse,
turaed toward the papal secretary
who was kneeling, and shook his
head. Cardinal Merry del Val under
stood. and covered his face with his
hands.
Sebs Rise Dying Pontiff.
Meantime Cardinal Vannutelll, the
pope's niece, Gilda Parolin; his ma
ior domo, Morsignor Bianchi; Mon
signor Misciatelli, and his secretaries,
Monsignor Bressan and Monslgaor
Pescini had joined the group in the
chamber.
The two sisters and the pope's sec
retaries could not restrain their sobs'
and their voices seemed to bring back
the pontiff from the state OF coma
into which he had lapsed. His eyes
opened and his lips moved, and 1t
was plain that he was making an
effort to impart final blessing. For
moment it seemed that dissolution
had taken. place, and then the lips
moved again. Together in one, all
things in Christ" he whispered.

ADD GRIEF KILLS SISTERS
Where Will Burial Be!

There is much interest in the maj
ter of where the body of the pope
will find its final resting place. It. IS
recalled that carrying the body OF
Plus TX from st. Peters to st. Law
renee caused riot For this reason
the body of Pope leo. although he
had expressed wish to be buried IN
St. John Lateran, where his tomb
was erected, still is in St. Peters.
as the late pope feared that the trans
portation might cause disorders. It
is believed that Plus X chose ST. Pet
er's for his tomb. in ordgssltss 40
the possibility of sunpleasantness. 4
The Journal de Italia today says
that the pope recentlyz drew up new
rules to govern future conclaves. and
that these abolished the right of the
veto of foreign powers, thus freeing
the cardinals of temporal influence
