aThey have about concluded
that it is caused by the lack re IN

THEY ARE A MYSTERY.
"Nobody knows exactly what

they exist.
sit is pretty definitely under

that the lack of them produces

ORDINARY FLOUR.
'Selfrising flour is simply ordi-
nary flour containing q certain
per cent. of phosphate of lime, or
burnt alum, or both, and bicar-
Donate of soda. These are Just
the ingredients that are used in
baking powder. The only differ
ence is that in baking powder the
water is dried out of all of it's in
gradients and they are kept dry

When they are put in the self
rising flour, however, the flour
contains a great deal of moisture,
and in warm climate like in the
southern states, when brought into
contact with certain elements re-

caused by bleaching, the phos-
phate Of lime, or burnt alum, be-
ing dampened and warmed by
moisture in the flour, and in the
climate, attacks the bicar Donate
of soda, decomposition takes place
and the carbonic acid gas escapes
through the flour.
cit is thought that perhaps this
slow process Of decomposition, or
sweating, might result in robbing
the flour of its vitamines and thus
producing and spreading pellagra.

Dublin The Reverend Michael
O'Flanagan, acting president of the
Sinn-Fein has sent the following tele-
gram to Premier Lloyd George: You
state that you are willing to make
peace at once, without waiting for
Christmas. Ireland also is willing.
What first step do you propose?'
A Christmas truce in Ireland was
suggested by Roger N. Sweetman, a
Sinn-Fein member of Parliament, who
recently urged that advantage should
be taken of the English labor commits
siOns visit to Ireland to bring about a
conference between the commission
and the Irish labor party, the Irish
peace conference and the Catholic hier-
archy to enlist all moderate opinion in
Ireland in support of Cardinal LOgue's
appeal for "a truce for God"
Church Backs Overtures.
There is general sentiment, strong
ly backed by ecclesiastical influence,
in favor of truce, but there is no ex
pectation that any Sim Feiner of an
authoritative position will be able to
meet the government on essential con
ditions. Leading Sim Feiners deny
participation in the rumored negotia-
tiOnS.
The Sim Fem organ says that the
governments repressive measures are
merely undertaken to force a comprO-
mise, which must be resisted Until

Ireland. Griffith, MacNeill and other
reputed mOderates were not molested.

They were then arrested and still
are held, the government allegation
against them being either culpable
ignorance in the employment of Dali
Eirean funds or knowledge that these
funds were being used by the Repub-
lican army to promote violence. This,
it is pointed out, is considered incon-
sistent with the government desire
