her husband to then the Terri

the first settlers Of Washburp and
Mclean County. She has lived
in this community since that
time and in consequence had a
host Of friends who regarded

greet upon her departure.
During the past three years,
Mrs. Peterson has been confined.

intervals has suffered much

NO BAKING POWDER
MORE WHOLESOME

!. Washington, D. C.-Alum bak-
ing powders are no more harmful
to a person than any other bak-
ing powders.
Such ie the conclusion Of the
referee board Of consulting scien-
tific experts Of the department.
Of agriculture as the result Of
experiments to determine the
influence Of aluminium compound
on. the nutrition and health Of
man. The report gives the re-
suits Of three sets Of extensive
experiments on human subjects
conducted Independently by mem
bers Of the board and was in re-.
Spouse to questions put to it by
the department Of agriculture.
The boards report was unani-
mous and was signed by Ira
Remson, president Of Johns uni
versity, Chairman; Russell H.
Crittenden, professor Of physio-
logical chemistry in Yale univer-
sity and, director Of the Sheffield
Scientific school; John H. Long,
professor Of chemistry in North
western university; Alonzo r.
Taylor, professor of physiological
chemistry in the University Of
Pennsylvania, and Theobald
Smith, professor Of comparative
pathology in Harvard.
This important decision makes
it apparent that it is unnecessary
ito pay an exprbitant trust price
to get pure and wholesome bak-
ing powder in the w~orld-which
has been proven best by test and
which ia pure in thecan and pure
lin the baking-can be purchased
flor the moderate prive Of Is
cents per pound.

YEARS EXPERIENCE
DOES NOT VULNERABLE

Ira Milhouse, Of Blue Grass,
has six acres Of alfalfa which is
now five Years old and his sue
cess with it has firmly con-
viDced him that there is no need
OF its being winter-kileld here
with amy reasonable considera-
tion given it. Last year from
those six acres he had thirteen
big loads Of hay beside the sum-
mer pasturing for forty hogs on it
He does not, however, allow
stock to eat it down close late
in the fall or winter but, barring
that injustice to any pasture, it
will take care Of itself just as
surely as the native prairie grass
This year he will have. forty
acres Of corn and he already has
seventy-six hogs who will make
good use' Of it.-New Salem Jour.

GREAT OPPORTUNITIES FOR
SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIE:

'WIllle war grips SeVen-elgntnS
Of industrial Europe i'm it's bale
full embrace, the Scandinavian
countries to the north have had
the good sense and good fortune
to keep out Of the gigantic
struggle. AS a consequence,
Sweden, Norway and Denmark
have not only maintained the in
dsustrial position they had already
achieved, but, because OF the
commercial exhaustion and de
moralization Of their neighbors,
have made substantial increase
in their overseas trade. Holl-
and shares in tbs prosperity.
Now the Scandinavian countries
and the little Dutch Kingdom
will naturally make a determined
effort to retain what they have
gained. Industrial triumphs, as
much as military victories, are
won by taking advantage Of the
psychology cal moment to strike.
That moment is here and the
countries awaiting the opportu-
nifty have taken full advantage O
it. .
From time immemorial Scand-
navia has been at home on the
water. "The hardy Norseman s
house of yore was on the stormy
sea-" He conquered England, a
good part. Of Ireland, and North
western France, and Sicily. He
gave an impetus to seamanship
as large as that with which he
lifted chivalry to it's high estate,
and the Viking vessel was as
terrible OH the ocean as the mail
clad warrior on the land.
The modern Norsemall, while
not forgetting that Scandinavia
was the progentior Of William
the Conquerer, Gustavus ADJ
oQphus and Charles XII, is turn
ing his attention to the arts of
peace, and the realms of indust-
ry. Already the products Of his
factories, and the evidences OF
his mechanical energy and taste
are found in all lines of industry
in this country, and no matter
how the. bloody conflict in Eu-
rope may end, or who the vic
tors shall be, Scandinavians and
the Dutch will continue to reap
the harvest long after the strug-
gle is over.
Theirs may be small countries.
but they are setting an example
that this nation may we'll pom
der.

Breaking Records.

We have come to the conclusion that
there is no limit to the farmers accom-
plishments. He can do whatever he
sets his head and heart upon. The 200
egg hen has already been replaced by
the 300 egg hen. and in the course of
time, whether we live to see It or not,
some Industrious little biddy will no
doubt show up with a record Of 1886
eggs in a single year. We should not
regard it as a miracle II we were to
hear that q hen could lay o two
eggs Q day.
There Is no such thing as a biggest
hog or a heaviest steer OF. a strongest
horse. Somebody can always break
the record-somebody always does IT.

Tn. sr..che. Bible.

One of the books which q biblioma-
MAC handles reverently is the famous
Geneva Bible, better known as the
"Breeches Bible" This name is due
to the rendering of Genesis iii, z, where
Adam and Eve are said to have "sew-
ed fig tree leaves together and made
themselves breeches." This had been
the reading of the first English Bible,
Wycliffe's version, but later translators
had substituted the word apron for
'Hbreeches,". and the Geneva Bible re-
verted to the original. The fact that
only one edition of the Geneva version
contained this sentence makes the linn
tied number more precious to the book
gathercr.
