[Popular Science Monthly] Languor, loss of appetite, indigestion and often fevermhness are tbe common symptoms of a physiological ndition termed "malaria." All these symptoms may be and frequently are the effect of the use of alum baking powders in food making. There is no question about the poisonous effect of alum upon the syßtem. It obstructs digestion, pros trates the nerves, coagulates and de vitalizes the blood. All this has been made clear, thanks to physicians, lioaTds of health, and food commissions. So "highly injurious to the health of the community" does the eminent head of the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Barker, consider the alum bakipgpow- J ders, that he says "their sale should be prohibi ted by law." Under these circumstances it is worth the while of every house-wife to employ the verv little care that is nec essary to keep so an element from the food of her family. A pure cream of tartar baking pow der, which is the only kind that should be used, ought to cost about 45 cents to 50 cents a pound. Therefore, if you are paying much less, something is (vrong; if you are paying 25 cents or less per pound, the powder is certainly made from alum. Always bear these sinmle facta in mind when purchasing- baking powder. Fairview Facts. They cased the Jack McGee well on the Abrams & Crouch farm on Mon day.

But a dangerous disease siezed him and he was suddenly taken from among us He was born and raised in Concord twp. | and came to Butler some 18 years ago j and has been actively engaged in the j production of oil eyer since.

Atwell, Thompson and McConnell held an autopsy on Monday and found death was caused by an en larged liver, weight 14 pounds, also a tumor in the bowels. They had watched her fading. Slowly, like the lily, day by day; And knew that they, on the brighther Shore were waiving her away. For she whispered slowly, softly. The praises of the Most High; And murmured gently, lowly, " 'Tis an easy thing to die " Mourn not for me beloved ones, Who guarded me in youth And kept my wayward feet Within the path of right and truth. Oh weep not father, mother dear— I'm only gone before, To welcome yon ere long Upon yon bright, eternal shore. Weep not, parents dear. It was done by Him who rules on high, To Whom there nothing is unknown. Nor W T hom we dare defy. God in His wisdom has recalled, The boon his love had given; And though the body moulders here, The soul is safe in heayen. Obituary Notes.

The entertainment for the benefit of the Sarver's Station Academy came off as scheduled on Friday evening last in the Sarversville hall. In a way it was a success financially, but owing to the fact that the building was packed be yond its capacity and the lack of seat ing accommodation it was impossible to keep order so much so that it not only discouraged the performers but also a majority of the audience. Among other things, the Rev. Harper and his sister sang; Helen Painter captured the audience with her declaiming "Archie Dean." Mrs. Black's two little nieces the Misses Weaver captured the hearts of everyone in the audience, not only on account of their ability but their singular expressiveness in carrying out their parts.
