The Secret
Is wholly in using Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder.
The only pure Cream Tarter Powder sold on the market.
Other brands contain either ammonia, alum or some other
adulterant Ammonia or alum powders dry out, make the
dough too porous, leaving a bitter taste, etc.
, . tNo agency has assisted so much toward perfection in
cookery as Price's Cream Baking Powder. Its ingredients
are simple and so blended as to exist in exact chemical pro
portions, so after use there is never any excess of either left in
the food. Hence there can be no impurities whatever left in
the finished food. No bitter taste, no taint of ammonia, but
food raised with Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder partakes
of the natural sweet flavor of the flour and keeps moist and
fresh for days."; This powder possesses qualitiea peculiar to
it alone. No other makes such delicious pastry. No other
contains the white of eggs. '

A Parrot's Conoeit.
My aunt had a parrot that had been
taught to sing the Brat stansa of "There
Is a Happy Land," and Polly was very
proud of her voice. ,; One day a neigh
bor brought over her canary to be kept
while she was away from home. No
sooner would the canary commence sing
ing than Polly would bristle her feathers
and cry out: "You dont sing right! yon
don't sing right! Hear Polly singl"
Then Polly would execute "There Is a
Happy Land" to the best of her ability.
One evening my uncle, who is some
what deaf, was telling me that there was
a concert in the town hall, and be should
like to go, but did not think he could
hear. Whereupon the parrot shrieked:
"Pollyll singl PollyH make you hear!"
The gentleman turned courteously to
her. "Thank you, Pollyl III stay at
home and hear your he said. She danced
about her cage in delight "Beautiful

softly to herself, with a pride in her ac

A wonderful example of patience la
the Chinese is afforded by a consular re
port dealing with tbe manufacture of
salt in central China. Holes about six
inches in diameter are bored in the rock
by means of a primitive form of iron
drill, and sometimes a period of forty
years elapses before the eoveted brine is
reached, so that the work is carried on
from one generation to another. During
this time the boring, as may be imag
ined, goes down to an immense depth.
, When brine is found it is drawn np in
bamboo tubes by a rope working over a
large drum turned by bullocks. Tbe
brine is evaporated in iron caldrons, the
heat being supplied by natural gas,
which is generally found in the vicinity
of the salt wells.

would risk putting them in a novel, in
l&M Dr. weaver
executed a deed of
trust of all hie

have it durlnit her

she had been consigned, but she returned
soon after of her own will. A jury decided
that the doctor was Insane and a commis
sioner decided that be was not, and so the
cam went to the supreme court.
The doctor then married Miss Emerson
and Bessie ran off with Willie Heft, son of
s wealthy hotel keeper. His parents
brought suit to set aside the marriage on
the ground that Willie was insane, but
failed. In 1888, however, he- got a divorce
on the ground of adultery, and last Janu
ary Bessie married Harry M. Bachtnan.
They separated last October, aud now Mr.
Bachnian wants a divorce. In 1S88 Or.
Weaver died, having made a will leaving
bts daughter but a small annuity, the
property to go to his wife for life and then
to the missionaries. .;'(;
The next fall the friends of Bessie brought
suit to set aside the will on grounds of in
sanity in the testator. The Orphans' court
ruled tbat the ease might go to a jury, and
the trial was well under way when Bessie's
attorney announced that she was tbe moth

ered half the property, and now the courts
may have to decide whether Bessie's child
is a Bach man in law, and, therefore, heir

A MILLION A YEAR.
Lotterr and Prize Scheme Vend to Sell
Alum sad Asnmoala Baking Powders.
' A New York concern, manufacturers
jf an ammonia baking powder, boasts
tbat its yearly pro tits are over a million
dollars. While, perhaps, none of the
makers of. alum powders individually
can show so large earnings, yet their
profits sre enorjaoos.
A business so profitable will always
attract to itself those whose greed will
cause them to utterly disregard the ef
fect their traffic may have upon the
oealtb or lite of others, u -
Alum baking powders are introduced
largely by gifts, prizes and lottery
schemes. A piece of glassware or china,
a child's wagon, sled, a pewter spoon or
some other article of attractive appear
ance, but of small intrinsic vaine or cost,
is given with each purchase or a num
ber is attached to the can which en
titles the customer to a similarly num
bered article or to a prize of sjme kind.
It is in some such way as this that the
trade in avium and ammonia powuers,
which has now attained such giant pro
portions and their consumption by tbe
public which has reached an extent
which is truly alarming. - " ". t
The highest authorities of all countries
condemn tbe use ot alum IB oreau with
out reserve. In America the most dis
tinguished physicians, chemists and
hygienists have declared that the traffic
in alum baking powders snouia oe sup
pressed by law. In England and France
where the subject of pure food, and its
effect upon the system, baa been more
fully considered and made the subject
of extended experiments bv the scient
ists, so serious a matter is the use of
aium in oreao or oiner looa consioereu
to be, that most stringent laws bave
been enacted to prevent it. These laws
are rigidly enforced, and the tale of alum
baking powders would not be permitted
for an hour. Any one who attempted
to make them for nse in food, or at
tempted to use them for raising bread,
biscuit r cake, would suffer severe pen
alties. .:,:';..,..'..;'
The HI effects upon the system of food
raised by alum baking powders are tbe
more dangerous because of their insid
ious character. It would be less dan
gerous to the community were it fatal
at once, for -then such food would be
avoided; but their deleterious action,
because imperceptible at first, is no less
certain.
. The puckering effect which alum has
when taken in the mouth is familiar to
everyone. Physicians say this same ef
fect is produced by it upon the delicate
coats of the stomach and intestines.
What housewife would take home to
her family a can of alum or ammonia
baking powder if she knew it? Bucb
powders not only undermine the system,
but it is pointed out that ammonia
taken into the system in even infinites
imal doses day after day, imparts to the
complexion a sallow and blotched ap
pearance. It is safe to discard sll baking powder
sold with a prize or gift. "
What a misnomer sre the words "Ab
solutely Pure," as applied to baking
powders. Two of the largest selling
brands, one made from alum, tbe otb r
containing ammonia, and both of these
dragged baking powders have stamped
upon their labels and circulars these
words, absolutely pure; as matter of
fact they are beolutely Poor," as
shown by official examinations.

Arago, the great French scientist, was

decorated with an order, to which he
was entitled, having received the official
notice of tbe honor, although be had not

"Open that drawer," said Arago, "and
take whatever you want."
In that drawer were all the crosses
and ribbons which kings and emperors
confer. -: ;
While Arago wished above everything
to promulgate science and to make his
researches useful, be did not attempt to
identify himself forever with his dis

A BUSINESS IN ALLIGATORS,
The Chief DlrTfreneea Itvtwoen That
' Beast and the Big Crocodile.
- To gain one's daily bread by means of
alligators must be at all times a fairly
precarious method of exietenoe, aud yet
the colored man of Florida does manage
to pick up tunny an honest penny by
means of the American saurian. The
taxidermist finds, too, in the alligator
his opportunity: and though a ten toot
'gator never can be very desirable, even
when stuffed, little 'gators properly pre
pared and mounted are in good demand,
audr are brought home iu quantity by
the northern tourist.
We aotid not fiud fault with uature,
and tx hr- with having slighted us in
the jwocodiUmna If in India there is
the gavial, iu Egypt there is the croco
dile, and in America the alligator and
the cayman. It can hardly be questioned
but that we have on this continent both
the crocodile and the alligator. The
main point of difference, according to
Mr. Hornaday, between the crocodile
and the alligator is as fallows; "A croco
dile is distinguished by a triangular
head, of which the snout Is the apex, a
narrow muzzle and canine teeth in the
lower jaw, which pass freely upward in
the notches in the side of the upper:
whereas tbe alligator (also cayman or
sacare) has a broad, fiat muxxle, and the
canine teeth of the lower jaw fit into
sockets in the under surface of the upper
jaw." . ;
The business of collecting the skins of
alligators has already somewhat dimin
ished the quautity of these saurians in
certain parts of Florida, but they are
still to be found in large numbers fur
ther inland. It is barely snpposable that
alligators ever will become extinct iu
Florida while those vast interior lakes
and swamps exist A visit paid by a
naturalist to Florida was convincing
that alligators were still very abundant
To kill an alligator, however, is by no
means as difficult as to secure him.
. The 'gators bask in the sun on the long
stretches of sand, but they are never
quite asleep. , They always seem to be
on their guard, and repose never very
far from the water, with their heads
pointing in the direction of flight i
' Gathering eggs requires some skill, be
cause the saurian mother has a cldver
way of hiding her trail. Sometimes a
many as forty eggs are found in a nest
few inches below the leveL It is not
the invariable habit of the mother to
pack into the- nest decayed vegetable
matter in order to add to the heat Gen
erally the warmth of the sun is suffi
cient '
The eggs have a slight musky Savor,
and an experiment once made with an
omelette of alligator eggs suffices. To
eat 'gator is unknown, and endeavors in
this direction have never been repeated.
Mr. Hornaday tells, however, of having
eaten the South American variety, where
the feed was fish, and declares "that the
flesh was white, tender,' free from all
disagreeable musky odors and toothsome
as the nicest roast veal."
It is with a due consideration of the
size of the alligatairaa to whether you
will take a seat on hint or not. His jaws
are not so much to be dreaded as a lash
of his tail. . ;' , ,
"Ky, massal you no wan tee free' 'gatoi
dis moruinT is about the cry of the
vender of baby alligators in Jacksonville
as he plunges his hand into a bucket
swung on one arm and hauls ont a little,
ngly, ' squirming, snapping monster.
These little 'gators may have been found
by their owner just emerging frm their
nests, or he may have secured them as
eggs and hatched tbem out himself. The
infant saurians show their natural in
stinct early and will bite at once.
An alligator is a queer pet, and to
tame an adult seems to be quite impos
sibl. If intelligence is proportioned to
bulk of brain that of the alligator Is es
pecially small. In dissecting a large sized
alligator tbe brain substance will barely
fill an egg cup. , We are not to look
upon a 'gator as capable of any attach
ments. When young (after having had
some of their teeth drawn) they are oc
casionally seen aboot honsos.-
' Clad to Travel In Neglige.
During a very hot night three Austrian
cavalry officers were on a train which
sped from Perth to Vienna. As tbey
had a compartment for themselves tbey
sought to travel as comfortably as pos
sible.1 First coats and vests disappeared,
then collars and cuffs and so on until
nothing remained on their bodies except
night clothing. It was so sultry they
remained awake all night When the
train stopped at one station one of tbe
party remarked tbat it wonlt be a good
idea to have something to drink, and be
hastily threw an Overcoat over his body
and ran to the bar of the station house.
Whether the bartender was too sleepy
or the officer too slow, to the despair of
tbe latter and his comrades the train set
in motion when be was at the door of
tbe restaurant. The two other officers
had first a hearty laugh and then pitied
him for tbe condition he wak in. But
their comrade was hot of the anxious
kind As soon as he discovered that the
train was in motion be ran quickly after
it and was lucky enough to reach the
steps of the last car, on which he re
mained until the next station was reached.
When be made his appearance among
bis comrades they were much astonished,
and one of them said: "Why, when we
saw you left behind we threw your gar
ments out of the window m the hope
that you would get them!" Nothing
could be done but telegraph to tbe other
station to bave some one pick up the
garments and forward them by tbe next
train. New York Recorder.
A Half a Chaoce Man,
Row many men have succeeded in
life to whom not a single circumstance
was kind? How often we bear people
say of some worthless fellow, "Ah, well,
he never bad half a chance!" But there
are plenty of boys who have come to the
front in life's battle, who never had even
a quarter of a chance.
Take Thomas Bull, the sculptor, for
instance. : He was but twelve years old
when bis father died. The poor widow
Thomas' mother, young herself, and
far from strong had five young chit
dren. There was no more school for
Thomas after his father's death. He
must go to work and help to support the
rest , He got a place in a grocery store,
where they gave him a dollar a week.
Not much, that but What a difference
it made to the poor little family!
From the time he was twelve young
Boll had always to work for tbe others
nntil they were all grown up.
He bad little instruction,, even In his
art, and be never had that little nntil
after he bad earned the money to pay for
it ; But he succeeded. Youth's Com
