Baking Powdor
No matter what siza you buy
There is
a Big Saving
Special attention is brought
to the fact that the 10-cent seller on
Calumet Baking Powder produces
just as big a saving in proportion as
the 1-pound size because Calumet
Baking Powder has a greater leaven-
ing strength. There is no waste in
the materials it is used with. The
last spoonful is as good as the first
You use only half the amount
usually requirai of other powders;
therefore, it will go twice as far. It
is a big saving over the cheap "Big
Can" kind.

The 10 cent size of Calumet
Baking Powder shows a great sav-
ing, the same as with the other sizes.

He stood amid the blaze and splen-
dor of bis magnificent mansion, and
in bis hand he held the portrait of a
beautiful woman. His face was pale
and haggard, and his lips moved con-
vulsively.
What was this mystery. Was this
the picture of his departed wife?
No.
Was It the portrait of his dead but
dearly remembered daughter.
No.
What, then, was the cause of his
haggard face?
Was It not the same portrait that
two minutes ago had fallen from Ita
nail, and raised a lump as big aa a
hen's egg on his head?
It was.
A Diagnosis.
"Oh, doctor," said a worried looking
agrarian, "My wife is in an awful con-
dition ! From a medium fat woman she
has been reduced to skin and bones.
She talks incessantly in a loud squawk-
ing voice, begins a sentence and never
finishes It, and jumps from subject to
subject without uttering anything that
has the least sense to it."
"H'm! I see!" returned the physi-
clon. "Go home, Mr. Gabbleby, and take
out your party line telephone at once.
