A Lawrence girl, an upper class
made a trip to Kansas City the other
day resulting in a somewhat unusual
experience. She caught an afternoon
interurban car home by running for
it. without stopping to buy a ticket
When city fare was collected she
handed the conductor a nickel and a
penny. and was given back three cents
in change. She thought it little odd
but said nothing.
Before the interurban conductor got
to her she had dropped asleep, and
was awakened by Little girl, where's
your ticket?''
She replied she didn't have time to
get one and handed a dollar to the
conductor to pay her fare to Law
ence. The conductor gave her back
3 cents in change. She looked rather
odd, for the conductor said, You
wanted half fare, didn't you?"
By this time the young woman real
lied what was happening. that she
was riding on half fare tickets and
quickly replied, "Oh, yes, half fare.
that's what 1 wanted"
And she rode from Kansas City to
Lawrence on street car and interur-
ban on half fare, and gleefully tells
the story.-The Lawrence Gazette.

IMPORTANCE OF PURITY OF
FOOD PRODUCTS REALIZED

1t used to be that INSCRIPTIONS
manufacturers were at liberty to
foist rankly aduiterated food stuffs on
to the unsuspecting housewife. This
production of low grade. frequently
worthless and often injurious mer-
chandise gained such strides that the
Government stepped in with Pure
Food legislation and checked it. This
measure of protection aroused house
wives to the situation and the impor-
lance of utmost purity in articles Of
table use. And as a result of this
awakening wise housewives have set
higher standard Of purity than the
Federal laws demand. The Federal
and State authorities have cut off to
great extent the manufacture of
products of an injurious nature The
great majority Of housewives have
gone even farther and insist on alb
solute purity.
This is evidenced in the tremendous
and ever increasing demand for Cal
umet Baking Powder. There are many
different brands of Baking Powders on
the market. All that are on the mar
ket are made within the "limits of the
law" are as pure as the law demands.
Calumet Baking Powder is as pure as
it can be made. 1t possesses no adult
erants--no useless fillers-no impur-
ities-no injurious properties of any
sort. 1t is composed of the highest
grade materials procurable. So pro-
portioned and blended they remain
pure. Another point which shows that
Calumet is way beyond the measure Of
merit required by law, is that it stays
pure in the baking. 1t leaves no
harmful residue. as do many powders
that comply with the pure food stand
ard. The bakings produced with CAL
umet Baking Powder are not only
light, fluffy and tasty, but wholesome
and healthful. which really is the final
test of any Baking Powders purity.
The high, way-above the-law excel
lence of Calumet, represents purity in
the extreme and that it what the wise
housewife now demands. She no long
er wantssa Baking Powder that is
good enough to get by the law--she
wants the BEST. (adv.)
