HOUSEKEEPERS Must be Watchful For great efforts are being made in this vicinity to sell baking powders of inferior class, made from alum acids and lime phosphates, both undesir able to those w ho require high-grade cream of tartar baking powder to make clean and healthful food.

They were visiting a lovely big farm. S> one morning Molly got up very ear ly and went out in tbe barnyard to see a great big turkey by the name o f Gobble Gobble. Now, Gobble Gobble was getting the best o f care, for be was the bird that had been picked ont for tbe Thanks giving dinner. O f course to help eat this good dinner was why Molly and her mamma bad gone to tbe farm. "H ello. Gobble, Gobble,” said Molly, going straight up to the big turkey. "Good morning. W ax Doll," Gobble Gobble answered, spreading bis broad wings and making his neck red. Then he did the strangest thing. He scratched bis wings along In the dirt and made a quick circle right around Molly, for she wore a beautiful red dress, you see. and turkeys do not like anything red. They seem to want Lotbing around as red as their own necks. When he kept coming nearer and uearer Molly got quite frightened, but when Gobble Gobble came right at her she turned and ran like anything. Gob- tie Gobble chased her till at last she Hid to run right up on to a big wood pile. Here she sat. throwing sticks o f wood at Gobble Gobble till her mamma came and cuased him away and took Uolly safely into the house. Garments For Children.

He broke up a few small ornaments aud finally smashed a window through which he escaped, entering the bedroom of an elderly spinster.
