Of all the food products used daily
in the kitchen, spices are the most
commonly adulterated.

by a number of States in an effort to
stop the practice, but without avail.
I afford you absolute protection in
this matter, for I carry the fqllowing
"Pure Food" Ground Spices, which
are guaranteed f i ee from adulteration :
Allspice, Red Pepper,
Black Pepper, Cloves,
Cinnamon, Jamaica
Ginger, Mjistard, Mace.

Vanilla than you have been getting
and this made from selected Mexican
Vanilla Bean. No Tonka Bean, no '

try some Biking Powder that -you
know is absolutely Pure? Made from
the receipt of the United States Agri
cultural Chemist. Pure Cream Tar

whole oata for the remainder of his nat

the manufacturers. A million-gallon
filter, such as would be necessary fo
Oregon City water system would cost

ditional supply of pipo running from ba
sin to middle of river we would get good
water at a nominal cost. Something
should be done in this matter as soon a
possible, and this seems tne most prac
