HOOD KIVEhVOLACIER, THURSDAY, APRIL 2i, 1913 ROYAL Baking Powder is the greatest of modern time helps to perfect cake and biscuit making. Makes home baking pleasant and profitable. It renders the food more digestible and guarantees it safe from alum and all adulterants, THE APPLE IS AN EXCELLENT FOOD in furl land (By J. A. Ilusicl;. M. I) lournul) By fur the most common fruit fund is the apple. '1 he tipple is adapted, perhaps, more than any other fruit to a great variety of Ux'8 in the house hold. It la most frequently liecd raw, but in also employed in making hniccs, pies anp pustry of different kinds. I Fully four-fifths of the ripe fruit is water and one-lilt h solid nuiter'Hl. About 1.1 per cent of the apple consists of nutritive materials. There Hre vei j small quantities of protein and tat, both not exceding one pt r cent, while more than 14 per cent of the ripe, fruit consists cf cHrbuhydiate;- in Uio form of suijar. The food value of the apple, therefore, depends almost entirely up on this suinir. The flavor of tho apple is determined by both the quantities of sugar contained therein as well us ly certain ethereal oil, ami by a sub stance which is common tn timet fruits, known as tannin. Tannin in the pure form is harmful to tho system, hut in the apple the quantity is so small IhuL it produces no ill ellei ts whatsoever. On tho contrary, physicians and hy RieniHts are agreed that the apple a very benetirial food to eat in that it tends to promote a vigorous digestion There are several points, to he remem bered.however, in regard to the health fulness of apples. The fruit may prove injurious wtien eaten either in the un ripe state or in tho condition when it is overripe. Ihe Rreen apple is well known for its power to upset the diges tive system, lha overripe apple, he sides losing in nutritive value and in flavor, is apt to harbor injurious germs ana eggs or insects, it is also well to remember that in the modern methods of apple cultivation a poisonous spray is employed to destroy parasites injur ious to tho apple. For this reason it is wise to peel the apple before eating or at icasi lo wash us outer surlace well. Measured by the cost of producing them the apple la perhaps the cheapest artcile of diet. In many ruia' districts the apple is allowed to fall and rot be cause it does not pay to pick it. Arti ficial commercial conditions make the fruit much dearer than it should be. The fruit should be eaten to a much greater extent than it is at present, The Last did Soldier (ny A. it. Mi Gri gor) .Say, boys, you heard what the n pane rs !?

Secretary of the Interior Lane took advantage of the presence of the Blackfeet Indians in New York, where they came to attend the Travel and Vacation show as guests of Louis VV. Hill, chairman of the Board of Directors of Great Northern Railway. He sent Mr. O'Hara on to New York, from Washington, to begin his labori ous task with these Indians. During the stay of the red men in New York, Mr. O'Hara had them sing Into phonographs and the records will be sent on to Washington to be put in the government archives, therefore preserving for all time the music of the original Americans, who are rap Idly passing to the Happy Hunting Ground. The accompanying picture shows 4he Indians singing to the phonographs under the direction of Mr. O'Hara. The Indians could hardly grasp the Idea at first of how they could sing into a tin horn and thereby record their music. After the first song had been sung, however, the reproduction was given them in a few minutes and the magic of the operation was be wildering to them. They thought It was the most wonderful of all the wonders they have seen, since their invasion of Greater New York. Mr. O Hara had them sing daily to his phonograph, while the Indians were in New ork and he is arranging to visit Glacier National Park earlv this summer and complete his records of tne wackfeet tribe there. Through the Interior Department arrangements were made to take these records privately In an out or the way loft, second floor of 61 West 37tU Street. Mr. O'Hara Is a tenor singer and writer of songs of some note. Several of his musical friends prominent in the mimical world In New York City and are very mmu lmerestea witn him, in the rhythm of the Glacier Park Indians love songs. There is one song In particular which the Glacier Park In dians sing, In which these musical critics find considerable merit. This is a song descriptive of the Blackfeet Indians' love of his home environ ment This Is a song which they al ways have sung when they left the shadows of the Rocky Mountains and rode far over the prairies either on minting expeditions or. to fight the Sioux. Big Top, the Indians' Inter preter, says, "His people always sing this song because when they go away from the mountains their hearts are lonely and It makes them think of "Home, Sweet Home." Mr. Louis W. Hill, chairman of the Board of Direc tors of the Great Northern Railway, who has done much for the Indians of the WTest in an educational way, both in agriculture and travel, Is very much Interested in Mr. O'Hara's work and has arranged to accompany him personally on his visit to the Glacier Natienal Park reservation In MnntAna during the early summer. Mr. O'Hara will take his phonograph with him and make records right in the tepees of these Indians in their own environ ment. W. F. Laraway Doctor of Ophthalmology perience.
