Serious Danger Threatens every man, woman or child liv ing in a region of country where fever and ague is prevalent, since the germs of ma larial disease are inhaled from the air and are swallowed from the water of such a region. Medicinal safeguard is absolutely necessary to nullify this danger. As a means of fortifying and acclimating the sys tem so as to be able to resist the malarial poison, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is in comparably the best and the most popular. Irregularities of the stomach, liver and bowels encourage malarin; but these are speedily rectified by the bitters. The func tions of digestion and secretion are assisted by its use, and a vigorous as well as a regu lar condition of the system promoted by it, Constitution and physique are thus defen ded against the inroads of malaria by this matchless preventive, which is also a cer tain and thorough remedy in the worst cases of intermittent and remitteut fever.

Baking Powder Bitt Passed by the Mix nesota Senate. The recent newspaper discussion of the dangerous qualities of ammonia comes from the alarming increase ot its use in baking powders. People who absorb it in small quantities fiom day to day suffer from slow ammonia poisoning. Takeu iuternally in sufficient quanities it eats away the coatina of the stomach and intestines and causes death. Slow ammonia poisoning produces various forms of stomach trouble. Not one woman in ten thousand would use an ammonia baking powder if she knew it. Such jSowdei-8 not only undermine the health, but Ammonia imparts a sallow and blotched complexion. Following is the bill recently passed by the Minnesota senate. It's the danger sig nal which the law throws out tor the pro tection of "the people: A Bill for an Act to Regulate the Traf fic in Baking Powder. Section 1. Any nerson who shall know ingly sell or procure the sale, or offer for sale ot any package or can ot Baking i owfl er, containing any Ammonia in it, not dis tinctly, legibly and durably branded, stamp ed or marked in a conspicious place with the words in the English language "This Baking Powder contains Ammonia" in let ters of great pica, or any letters equivalent thereto in length, shall be guilty a misde meanor, and punished by a hue not less than $20 nor more than $50; shall be con fined in the County Jail not less than ten or more than twenty days or by both hne and imprisonment, at the discretion of the court. Section 2. The sale or offer for sale of the substance mentioned in the foregoing section in packages not stamped, marked, branded or labelled as therein requireu, shall be prima-facie evidence of knowledge of the character of said substance, on the part of the person so selling or offeriug f r sale and his employer. Section 3. This Act shall be in force on and after its passage. Note. An incident occurred in the house when the senate bill came up for passage, in reference to an amendment firapissed by Mr. Diinent. This was opposed by several members. Mr, Feig said that it the bill as it came from the senate was alright then the amendment was all wrong. The amend ment compelling the printing of the word "Ammonia" on the label only affected only affected the Royal Baking Powder, and no wonder they felt the senate bill was a blow at them. JEWISH HOLIDAYS. Next Monday, October 12th, or the tenth day of Tishri, Yom Kipur, the day of atone ment, a fast day, will be celebrated by the Jews, and the Jewish firms generally will do no business, Mr. Stock of this city will then close his doors and no transactions will be made. On the 15th will be a feast day, but this will not be celebrated by the clos ing of business houses. Last Saturday was Jewish New Year, "Rash Hoshauah, which began at 5:30 p. m. on Friday. The 2nd of October commences with them the year 5661. According to Hebrew chrono logy it is 5661 years since the beginning of creation, Rash Hoshanah lasted until Sun day evening. The months of the Jewish calendar are Misan, Syar, Sivan, Tamafj Ab, Elul, Tishri, Marchisvan, Kisley, Tibet, Shebat and Adar, with a second Adar added for each lunar year. The difference in leap year is explained as follows: The lunar ... ,i i i year which comprenenas iweive iuuar months, or 354 days. 8 hours and 48 minu tes, was in use among the ChaldeaiiB, Persi ans and ancient Jews. Once in every three years was added another lunar month, to make the solar and lunar year nearly agree. But, though the months were lunar, the , f- i j 1 i L il. year was soiar. j.nasis, me nri muuiu was of thirty days and the second twenty- six, and so alternately. The month added trienuiallv was called the second Adar. So then, as the Jewish year is the lunar year, the new year would not commence on Jan nary 1st, a3 is now the custom. If a record had been kept of all the years since man began to note the flight of time, the aggre gate number representing the sum of all the years would be a big one. Over and over again men have begun and counted up to 2500 or 3500 or 6500 or 8500 years, and then some convulsion began and the old count lapsed and the new series began. The 1891 years, that via, the date used in business and generally, represents not the hundredth part of the years that have elapsed since the "morning stars sang to gether" on the advent of the dawn of the new, "well-finished" world, long, long ago, in the dim morning of time.

That's a good class in political ecou-: omj, but political economy is a strong subject for study. The country will need politicians with the rising gerierd tion just aa it does now, but to bs successful they will have to be mighty good ones. The progress of enlighten ment among all classes is moving witli momentous force at the present day. The social Friday evening last was A very pleasant happening. Besides chocolate and sandwiches, a spelling match was engaged in, and this, tooj was interesting. The organization of the regular literary societies has been completed, and .Friday evenings are the times of meeting. This is an important factor in college life, arid no p'ains should be spared to make them interesting aud stirred with enthusiasm. The question of publishing a collegrj paper has recently been agitated to" some extent, but without apparent in terest. It would be found that suell an institution would meet with general public approval, if managed upon A. proper basis, and there ia no reasoit why it should not be established. The new buildings in course of con struction around the college are being pushed to completion and every con venience will be afforded this year: Catarrh Can't Be Cured With Local Applications, as they CanuoS reach tho seat of the disease.
