One Pure Baking Powder
like Telling a Secret.
A story is told and it is a truo story that over seventy
per cent, of ail the baking powders sold contain cither alum
or ammonia, and many of theso powders contain both. The
ill effects upon the system of food raised by alttm or ammo
nia powders aro the more dangerous because of their insidious
character. It would be less dangerous for tho people were it
fatal at once, for then such food would bo avoided, but their
baneful action because imperceptible at first and slow in its
advances, is no less certain.
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is decjarod by all
authorities as free from alum, ammonia or any othw adttl

struck it rich, and the dulcet sound of
his melodious voice, which may bo
likened unto the screech of tho steam

echoes in Portland in the near future.
Jack lias discovered a ledge of gold-bearing
quart on Catherine creek a few
miles southeast of the town of Union,
this state, and that section is in a flurry
of excitement over the find, which is
rejwrted to be quite extensive. Samples
of the ore shipped here to ! assayed
have the appearance of being fabulously
rich in free gold, the rock being literally
tilled with the sparkling metal. Jack's
many friends in Portland will lie glad to
learn of his good luck. Welcome.
There is no question but there is a
large amount of rich ore in the vicinin
from which Jack has rejorted to have
"struck it," but wo are of (he opinion he
has not found it and Is only giving the
people of Portland a game.
