Have you ever beard this?
“My baking powder,” says the
smooth solicitor, “costs less than
Royal.”
But he omits to say that it often
leaves a bitter taste, that food made
with it is likely to stale in a day and
that it contains alum, which is con-
demned by many medical authorities
for use in food.
England and France prohibit the
sale of alum baking powders.

and that they would have to be made
in the proper manner or they would
not be accepted.
George Huebner, former county
commissioner, being granted the
floor, told of conditions which had ex-
isted in the past and how money had
been unwisely spent, and that it was
unfair to the people; he was very cor-
dially replied to by H. M. Presun, who
stated that the reason the people were
in attendance upon the meeting that
day, was to get away from the old
habit and adopt new and modern ones.
Judge Haidusek also had something
to say, and then they ruled out fur-
ther speechmaking, and George Lenert
said he wanted the bunch to get to
work, nnd they did. They then voted
on the question whether they should
petition the commissioners’ court for
a bond election for $200,000 and the
vote was taken by rising. Say, there
■was no liquid glue spilled on those
seats. The vote was practically una-
nimous. And then they appointed
committees. The chairman, upon be-
ing empowered, appointed the follow-
ing as a committee on finance: J.
Meyenberg, O. E. Stolz, and Jake
Alexander. As an information com-
mittee the chairman named Leo Frede,
J. S. Sebesta, George Hauslcr, and
John P. Ehlinger. This committee
will be in a position to fully explain
the whole business to every tax payer
in the precinct. They will know how
much the taxable property vnluution
is, and they will be in a position to
tell each tax payer the amount he is
going to have to pay.
And then they also named a cam-
paign committee; this committee is
composed of C. H. Steinman, D. J.
Weikel, C. G. Frane, A. F. Weber, Sr„
William Loessin, C. E. Hackebeil, P.
L. Dnvis, John Schroeder, O. C. Eckel,
of LaGrange; and H. A. Tietjen of
Rutersville. This is a hot bunch and
they are sure to bring results. If
you want to know anything about the
bond matter they will talk to you,
and for facts and figures refer you
to the information committee. And
then they named committees from
each voting box in the precinct whose
duty it will be to solicit the signa-
ture of the tax payers in the precinct
to a petition to be filed with the com-
missioners’ court. That practically
concluded the meeting, except two
things. C. J. von Rosenberg made
the motion that the temporary organi-
zation be made permanent, and this
was carried, and then someone, I don't
remember now, made the motion—be-
lieve it was George Lenert—who sug-
gested that a motion be made—that a
collection be made among those pres-
ent, the funds to be used for campaign
literature, etc., and a hustling com-
mittee was at once among the bunch
and they got about forty-three dollars
together in a few moments. The
meeting, after hearing what Lieut.
Lueders had to say about the War
Veteran’s Organization, and what L.
V. Vanek had to read about the RobL

truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly sus-
ceptible to the wandering diphtheria
germ. If your child has a eold when
diphtheria is prevalent you should
him out of school and keep him off
the street until fully recovered, as
there is a hundred times more danger
of his taking diphtheria when he has
a cold. When Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy is given it quickly cures the
cold and lessens the danger of diph-
thria or any other germ disease be-
ing contracted.
