smirching the name of Chicago to
such an extent that it is considered
the most crime-ridden place on the
face of the earth.
They have succeeded in keeping
millions of dollars away from Chi
cago in frightening away men and
women who formerly made it their
trading center. They succeeded in
spreading prostitution all over the
city, so parents are never sure when
their sons and daughters are safe.
They have succeeded in having the
greater part of the police force used
to poster unfortunate women. They
have succeeded in making the best
known street of Chicago, State street,
from Harrison to 26th, a street of
ruins, junk shops, dime lodging
houses, and secondhand stores.

COUNTY HOSPITAL

COUNTY HOSPITAL should
like to ask regarding conditions in
the County hospital Have just heard
a very sOrdid story concerning that
institution, related by a worthy wom-
an of about go years. She told her
experiences to me and it was enough
to make ones blood boil.
She lay in extreme pain for hours,
without attention, and, on telling the
doctor, he said she should be satisfied
as she wasn't paying for services. She
also told me of internes asking the
girl patients insulting questions. This
is only half.
Is it possible that such things are
happening in the goth century? Is
it permissible for strangers to visit
this hospitaI?- Jeffersonian.

can say nothing in their favor. They
are never economical frequently leav-
ing the baking bleached and acid; some
times yellow and alkaline, and often
unpalatable. They are not dependable
and represent false economy at any
price.
1.-THE most simple way for the house
wife to- class baking powder is by price.
The trust goods that retail for 45c or
soc pound are usually the cream Of
tartar powders, and are of the old
school; and the cheap and Big Can
kind that sell all the way from loo a
pound up to cent an ounce should
also be avoided.
"The last word in baking powder is
the happy medium, a combination pow
der that sells at moderate price and
when properly prepared gives the con-
sumer full value for the money. The
result in baking is pure, wholesome
food, without any harmful residue.
There is no reason why any housewife
should pay 45c or soc per pound. The
best baking powder made can be manu-
featured so as to retail at about 1s this
price"
On being asked what baking powder
she used in her work. Marian Cole
Fisher frankly stated that for more
than seven years she had used Calumet
Baking Powder with the most satisfac-
tory results in every particular.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1916-12-18

In an interview on baking powder,
Marian Cole Fisher, Chautauqua lee
turer and at that time special chairman
of the Saint Paul Housewives League
and an active member, stated as fol-
lows:
81 find many, in fact, very many,
women woefully uniformed on the sub
iect of baking powder. Evidently the
housewife does not appreciate the value
of baking powder in her kitchen and in
her baking, or she would have informed
herself. This is a subject that is quite
important.
"a great many of the housewives
today have followed their mothers or
grandmothers in the use of baking pow
der, which in some instances is a mis-
take. There has been just as much i'm
provement in baking powder as in other
commodities. l am glad to find that
baking powder has Kept up with the
times.
Some housewives have been led to
believe that the cream of tartar pow
ders are the best goods to use. This is a
resulting no doubt from the
constant efforts of the Twenty Million
Dollar Baking Powder Trust to create
prejudice against all goods save their
own. Their goods should be least de-
sirable on account of the large quanti-
ties of Rochelle Salts remaining in the
food.
1.-The, other extreme is the cheap and
