Highest of all in Leavening Power.- Latest U. S. Gov't Report
ABSOLUTELY PURE
papers was that of Dr. Pemberton Dud
ley, president of the Pennsylvania
State Board of health, upon hyglenio
regulations ill this state. Dr. Dudley
severely criticised "the general Indif
ference to and neglect of this public
duty," and said: "The greatest sani
tary need under which Pennsylvania
suffers today is a reasonably adequate
public and legislative appreciation of
the value of public health and of Its
relation to the public wealth. In this
particular, judging by legislative ac
tion, our proud commonwealth is woe
fully and discreditably behind almost
all the other states In Christendom."
TOM COICII'S BUI SHOT.
Tom Couch, the designer of big bo
gus .bars, astonished his hunting
friends one duy last week by declaring
that he was willing to bet that he had
made the best shot on ducks that any
sportsman of St. Louis ever heard of.
"I didn't use a swivel gun, either,"
he said, "but I got thirty-seven mal
lards at a single shot last fall just as
they were coming in over my decoys."
There were Incredulous looks, winks
and remarks Indulged In, when George
Mann remarked:
"Now, Couch, as you are a member
of the Truthful Hunting and l-'lshing
club, you will be required to furnish
proofs or suffer the penally of a pre
varicator." "Oh, that is easy enough." said
