Successful Economy In Baking.
Most housewives assume when they buy
a big cuii of buklnK P0Wd«r Ht a low price
that they have been economical. They
have to a slight extent—but when they I
use that cheap "big can" baking powder. |
and find It ho uneven In quality, or so un-
reliable that the baking falls, there Isn't
bo much economy In It after all, for the
wasted materials far outweigh the few
cents saved In the price.
SUCCESSFUL, economy. Is In the reach
of every woman that desires It. She haa ,
only to order Calumet Haklng Powder,
and use It according to Instructions. Then,
Bhe will achieve economy. For not only
does Calumet Bell at a reasonable price—
„2Dc per pound—but It Is so carefully made
by experienced chemists that failure Is
Impossible. Only the best materials are
Used and the proportions of the Ingredi-
ents are so exact and so uniform that
EVEUY baking comes from the oven,
light, sweet, and beautifully raised. Calu-
met guarantees you against failure, and
that is what constitutes real economy In
baking.
Why not use Calumet, a baking powder
that you can always rely upon? You can
get no better at any price, for at the
World's Pure Food Exposition. Calumet

Effective greenery for the dining
room table may be made by planting
the seeds o( grapefruit. Sow them
thickly, and in two weeks, if the earth
Is good and has been kept moist In a
warm place, the little shoots appear.
Two weeks more and the leaves un-
fold, and very soon there Is a mass of
rich, glossy green, which Is not af-
fected by gas of furnace heat.—Subur-

Mrs. Enoa Shearer, Yew and Wash-
ington Sts., Centralia, Wash., says:
"For years I was weak and run down,
could not sleep, my limbs swelled and
kidney secretions
were troublesome. I
was fast in bed four
months. Three doc-
tors said there was
no cure for me and I
was given up to die.
Being urged, I used
Doan's Kidney Pills.
Soon I was better
and In a few weeks was about the
house, well and strong again."

Rivalry.
"Does your automobile go faster
than your neighbor's?"
'No," replied Mr. Chuggins. "But
my danger signal makes a much more
disagreeable noise than this."
Too Late to Change.
"A man can no more change his rep-
utation than he can change his face
or his arms," said Senator La Follette
at a banquet In Madison.
"There was once a wicked old Madi-
son millionaire who took his pastor
aside and said:
" 'I am going to devote the re-
mainder of my life to doing good.'
"Dr. Thirdly, outspoken man, re-
torted:
" 'Do you mean John H. Good, the
wealthy farmer ,or young Sam Good,
the Socialist millionaire?' "
Thi« Time for a Friend.
" 'Tls a wise man," said Robert Ede-
fion, "who knows when to ask ques-
tions. The other night I was standing
Inside the railroad station when an
Irish cab driver came up to me and
asked me how soon the next train
came in. I told him and he said thank
you and went away. In about five
minutes he came back with the same
question. 'I told you not more than
five minutes ago,' I said. 'I know it,'
he answered cheerfully, 'but It's not
me th't wants to know this time. It's
a friend of mine outside th't has to
to watch his horses and can't come in
an' ask yez himself!'" — Young's

If Your Food Fails to Sustain You,
Change.
One sort of diet may make a person
despondent, depressed and blue and a
change to the kind of food the body
demands will change the whole thing,
A young woman from Phlla. says:
"For several years I kept, in a run-
down, miserable sort of condition, waa
depressed and apprehensive of trouble.
I lost flesh in a distressing way and
seemed in a perpetual sort of dreamy
nightmare. No one serious disease
showed, but the 'all-over' sickness was
enough.
"Finally, between the doctor and fa-
ther, I was put on Grape-Nuts and
cream, as it was decided I must have a
nourishing food that the body could
make use of.
"The wonderful change that came
over me was not, like Jonah's gourd,
the growth of a single night, yet It
came with a rapidity that astonished
me.
"During the first week I gained in
weight, my spirits Improved, and the
world began to look brighter and more
worth while.
"And this has continued steadily, till
now, after the use of Grape-Nuts for
only a few weeks, I am perfectly well,
feel splendidly, take a lively interest in
everything, and am a changed person
in every way." Name given by Postum

Pitching and Paragraphing.
After Walter Johnson, the Washing-
ton pitcher, had "held out" for several
weeks for more salary than had been
offered to him originally, and had
finally signed up for a fat lot of mon-
ey, he proceeded to pitch one or two
losing games. This was surprising,
because Johnson is one of the best
In the business.
George Brown, a Washington wit
and paragrapher, explained the matter
in these words:
"Johnson Is too busy going to the
bank to pitch."—Popular Magazine.
Clearly Outclassed.
"There's no use of talking," Bald
Mr. Cumrox, "people's minds are a
heap quicker than they used to be."
"We move at a rapid pace."
"Wonderful! My daughter has been
away to school a year and a half and
she has learned Greek, Latin, philoso-
phy, dancing, music, mathematics,
lawn tennis, painting and astronomy.
And in more than half a lifetime I
haven't learned to spell more than
half the words in the English lan-
guage."
Salve to Conscience.
It was at a concert, where the re-
moval of hats was not obligatory, still
the woman with a conscience wished
to be accommodating. She turned to
the woman sitting beside her and
said:
"Does my hat bother you?"
"Not in the least," said the other
woman sweetly, so the woman with a
conscience settled complacently back
to listen to the music while persona
on the back seats twisted their necks
out of joint trying to see around her
hat.
Bird-Woman's-Eye View.
The aviator's wife was taking her
first trip with her husband in his
airship. "Walt a minute, George," she
said. "I'm afraid we will have to go
down again."
"What's wrong?" asked the hus-
band.
"I believe I have dropped one of
the pearl buttons off my jacket. I
think I can see It glistening on the
ground."
"Keep your seat, my dear," said the
aviator, "that's Lake Erie."
Not In Vain,
Noah sighted Mount Ararat.
"At last," he cried, "the mountain
resort with an ocean view!"
Herewith he felt the voyage was not
In vain.—Puck.
A Broken Bone.
Your first duty, after notifying a sur-
geon, is to provide support for the In-
jured member In the form of an Im-
provised splint. Flat pieces of board,
' as broad, if possible, as the limb and
slightly longer than the broken bone,
canes, umbrellas, in fact anything that
will accomplish your end may be used.
In adjusting these, pad with any soft
material that is at hand; straw, leaves
or cushions made of grass may be
used. Avoid any pressure on the In-
jured part, cover it with a cloth, and
keep wet with clean, cold water. —Wo-
