into believing that because a baking pow-
der foamed up over the top of a glass
when water was added, that it was a good,
pure and strong baking powder?
It foams because it contains ALBUMEN (some-
times called the white of egg.)
ALBUMEN In baking powder Is no help in the
baking.
It does not make a stronger or better baking
powder.
It deceives the consumer when she sees it
foam in the glass.
State after state has ruled that baking powder
mixed with ALBUMEN is illegal and has stopped
the sale of the stuff.
United States Government authorities have de-
clared that the water glass test is a fraud, and that albumen
does not help the baking.
Food commissioners North, South, East and West
have denounced the albumen fraud.
DO NOT LET FAKIRS FOOL YOU.
The manufacturers of K C BAKING Powder have
never found it necessary to resort to such fraudulent
methods.
K C BAKING POWDER
Contains No Albumen
It is a pure food baking powder, sold at an honest
price and no better can be bought at any price.

COLORADO STRIKERS
MUST LAY DOWN ARMS
(By United Press.)
WASHINGTON, May 2.—Sec-
retary of War Garrison has pro-
claimed an order for the surrend-
er of all arms and ammunition in
the Colorado strike district. The
order applies to all individuals,
firms and coporations alike. It is
not thought that it will be neces-
sary to use force to carry out the
order, as there has been no dis-
order since the regular troops
arrived on the scene of trouble.
Disarmament Proclamation Satis-
factory.
(By United Press.)
DENVER, May, 2.—The pro-
clamation for the disarming of all
individuals in the Colorado strike
district lias been received with
satisfaction by both sides. J. F.
Welborn, representative of the
mine operators, is confident that
the order to disarm will result in
peaceful conditions. John McLen-
nan, district president of the
miners union, said the strikers
were willing to lay down arms if
the private gunmen were also
disarmed. It is thought that this
will put an end to w?.rfar<* that
has been going on between the
strikers, strike breakers and
mine guards for some time.
MEXICO DISSATISFIED
WITH HUERTA
(By United Press.) •
VERA CRUZ, May 2.—The re-
signation of Foreign Minister
Rajas is regarded here as further
indication that the citizens of
Mexico, and especially of Mexico
City, are becoming dissatisfied
with Huerta. It is also reported
that the army officials are trying
to force Huerta to resign.
The Mexican farmers in this
section have asked General Furis-
ton to extend the line of his pick-
ets to take in their farms, because
the Mexican snipers refuse to al-
low them to enter Vera Cruz with
their produce. O’Shaughnessey
is said to he en loute to Galves-
ton and it is expected that he will
reach Washington early ne:ct
week.
Dizziness, vertigo, (blind stag-
gers) Sallow complexion, flatu-

a powerful liver stimulant. A
dose or two will cause all hilous
symptoms to disappear. Try it.
