' Is Alam Poisonous?
I Hall's Journal of Health 1
I "This question has caused a good
deal of discussion. Alum is used by
I many bakers to whiten their bread,
enabling them to use an inferior
flour. It is most extensively em
ployed as n cheap substitute for
cream of tartar In the manufacture
of baking powders. It has uot been
considered immediately dangerous;
although if continued It Induces
dyspepsia and ohslimite constipa
tion. But the fact that many casta
of poisoning have o.-curied from the
use of alum, puts the question inn
more serious aspect, and prudent
people wilt exercise caution in the
selection of baking powders.
"Under what conditions then,
does this snbstauce formerly med
only for mechanical or medicinal
purposes become poisonous? They
are certainly obscure, and at preseut
we can only surmise what they may
be We suspect that the cause ex
ists In the individual poisoned; some
peculiarity of the constitution pro
ducing a morbid change In thesecrr
tiotiH of the stomach, with whhm
the alum combines and f.'rius uu
active poison; or the secretions inn
be healthy but iu uuustul pro,ir
tions and that these less or gre-irct
proportions iu combination witbjihu
alum constitute a poison.
"For example, two parts of
mercury and two parts of chlorine
form calomel, which is notpohonous,
butchange the proportions to one part
mercury aud two parts of oliloriue,
and we get corrosive sublun ile,
which is a deadly poison.
"Then again, we know nothing of
the constitutional peculiarities
Why is it that one person cau cat all
kinds of gr n fruits and vegetables
with impunity, while the siuiu
course might cost'another individu 1
his life? One person can handle
poison ivy aud sumac without being
in the least affected; 'mother is
poisoned if be approaches to within
10 feet of them. Out of a family ie-
siding In a malarial district, some of
the members will sutler half the
year with fever and aue, while the
others will enjoy excellent health
during the entire year. Foods that
are wholesome to s uie persons are
actually poisonous to others. This
ise3pectilly true of some kind of
fish. There is no safety in taking
alum into the stomach, as it is
shown to be always injurious, and
often dangt rous."
The Scientific American published
in a recent uum'jor a list of alum
and amm nU baking powders,
which is of great value at this time,
'following Is the list compiled fiom
official reports. Pnvddrs marked
with a star seem to have a general
sale, ti3 they are mentioned in at
least two of tue official reports.

The work that u good womnn can do
tor the fallen of her sex is well illus
trated by n story related by Mrs. Bar
ney in an address upon tho subject of
polico matrons. She was onco urging
tlie necessity of such matrons upon tho
authorities of a certain city, when tlio
chief of polico said, "Well, If you could
soo tine woman that comes in hero threo
o." four times a yenr 'Old Sal' I" It
took four policemen, ho said, to bring
her into tlio cell, and usually they got
their faces scratched. Ouo morning
Mrs. Barney was told that tlils woman
had been put into a cell tho previous
night. "Wo would liko to sco you
bring her into court," tlio polico said.
"If you can do that wo shall beliovo in
polico uintrons."
Tho chief offered to send two men to
protect me, but I declined their serv
i.ie.T. As I readied tlio cell door I
rapped with the koy, nnd then unlocked
tit door and entered. Tlioro in tho
Jr.k, narrow cell crouched tlio woman,
Iol '.;!;! t mora liko a wild beast. Slio
was just ready to spring, as slio was ex
pecting tho police. She cried eut:
"Who nro you?"
"I am your friend," I replied.
"It's a Hoi" she said. "I haven't got
any friends."
"But I am your friend," 1 reiterated
gently.
The woman laughed mockingly.
"Who nro you, anyway!"
"I niu a police woman."
"Oil, I didn't know thoy had any
such tilings," slio said. "I never saw
one beforo. What do you think you'ro
goin' to do?"
"Help you," I replied simply; and
as I stood there besido her I dropped
uiy hands upon her shoulders, and call
in1 her by her married name, I said,
"You know you iiavo to go into tho
court in a minuto, and you aro not Ut
to go."
I began to arrange hor hair. I took
a pin from my own hair. Sho hadn't
n button or u pin or a fastening of any
kind in her clothes. Slio sat there
tugging to hold them together, and as
I tried to dress her she said:
"Tell mo what you aro up to. Tell
mo what you mean."
Looking in her eyes I asked kindly,
"Do you remember tho first time you
woro over in a polico station?"
"Don't 1 remember it!"
"How old were you?"
"I wan't sixteen then, and I am
more than sixty now."
"How many times have you been in
these places?"
"Oil, I don't know. I guess God
don't know it's so often."
"Do you remember how you felt tho
first tlnio?"
"I was almost scared to death. I
ci led all night."
"Sully, if a good woman had been
there and had wiped the tears off your
face, and had put up your hair and
had rested a motherly hand on your
shoulder, as I bavo dono today, what
would it havo meant to you?"
"Oh, I would never havo gono back
again, but nobody ever cared."
"Now, Sally, I want you to do some
tiling for me. I want to got a woman
to go into theso places to care for tho
women in tho way I havo suggested.
Wouldn't you liko to help me?"
"I would do any tiling I could to help
you."
"Tho polico think you will not go
quietly into court with mo this morn
ing; but I'm sure you will."
Wo talked together n littlo whllo
longer, nnd then came tlio call for us to
go into court. As wo roso from tlio bed
where wo had been sitting I said, "Will
you take my arm, or shall I tako yours?"
Slio looked mo over and said, "Wal,
I am about throe times as largo as you ;
I guess you'd bettor tako mino."
So wo went Into court. Tho police
men said thoy would havo cheered us
if it had been proper, and ono of thom
said that I had "bewitched Sally."
And so tlio poor creature was bewitched,
but only witli gentio treatment and
kind words. Youth's Companion.
School llluudur.
A teacher iu a public school gave out
a list of words to bo defined and put
iu sentences. Among them was tho
word "chasm." A littlo girl looked in
tlio dictionary, and not being quito sat
isfied inquired if "chasm" meant "gap." t
Tho teacher absently replied yes, but
was ohtonished when slio presented her
paper with tills sontenco, "When I nin
sleepy I always chasm."
But tills is hardly equal to another
teacher's experience in a littlo district
school some years ago. Slio gave out
words for analysis. "Bank-note" was
ono of them, arid tlio teacher's aston
ishment may bo Imagined when ono
young lady brought tlio following
unique analysis:
"Bank-note" U a compound primi
tive word composed of 'bank' and
'note.' 'Bank' Is a simple word, mean

A Curd From Hill Anderson.
Ed. Jeurnal: For tho benefit of
the public I wish to make a stute
meut about that rowiu my saloou.
I keep boxing gloves aud the boys
come in every Saturday night and
exercise, Ialwajstry to keep good
order and this match was got up
between four persons who aro partic
ular friends to havo some fun. It
was a innkc-believo fight. .Tlio man
Holland got hold of it mid from his
actions ho was bound to break it up,
and did so. Holland came to my
saloon early iu the evening and per
suaded oue of my men that was to
spar to go away with him aud took
him around to other saloons nnd
treated htm and tried to get him
drunk. I sent ono of tho seconds
after the man nnd he brought him
back. Holluud camo back witli him
aud called for tho gloves, wanting
to show my man some poind:, Hol
land took tho man and the gloves
out back aud I started a man ufter
htm. When my mnu overtook him
Holland was about 25 or 30 steps
from tho house and going ahead
, with gloves and man and refusing to
give up tho gloves for awhile. Then
Holland came buck and took charge
of ouo of tho men and took him
away from the second that hud heou
trnlniug him for several days, took
him iu tlio back room and put the
gloves on him, nnd stripped him
and brought him out into tho ring
and run him right along. Holland
would call time aud glvu ordeis and
I called him to order several timet.
Holland went to the dnora
of tlio bar room and culled put
to the crowd to como in. I went' to
Holland and pushed hhn back iu
the crowd aud told him I was run
ning tho house,
The next appearance of Holluud
lie was quarreling with tho second
whose place ho hud taken. Then
Holland jumped into tho ring ai.d
conmieuced to sti in off to clean out
the houe. I had Just taken one of
tho fighters a glass of whisky, when
Holluud landed In the ring. To
stop nil further trouble I just let
Holland have oue with tho glass nud
Holland did uot wuutto fight us bad
as he thought he did. After that
tho houe was quiet and every
thing went on smoothly. Hol
land knocked mo out of several
dollars by tho row. I am under
bonds to keep an orderly house.
I lilt Holland to prevent u regular
riot, and I claim I was Justified In
so doing to protect my house. I un
derstand Holland's conduct in town
