The News of the World Conflensetl Into
Pithy ami Pointed Paragraph!
Interesting and Instructive to All
Classes ot Benders.
Bishop Brown, of tho African Mctlio-
has lately taken, tho race will bo le.we n church, died in Washiog-
Augu.ta and Atlanta. It it well known lon Ihursday.
that the effort has been made for tcveral
yosrs past to get n release for the Slate
Agricultural Society from the city coin-
cil of Macon in tho requirement of tho
contract with that city to hold the state
fair every year. That contract was to
last for twenty years. Tho state fair was
pledged to tho city of Macon every year.
When tho society held Its last meeting iu
Augusta last month, tho iiintlor
canto up for settlement, and it wna
decided to havo a committee confer
with Macon for tile purpose of get
ting a release from the contract. The
committee wont to see the city council
of Macon, and laid the propositions be
fore thorn. It was shown that the last
fair of the society at Macon, which wna
belli last fail, lost the society moro than
$2,000, nnd that the prospect was g >od
for tho society to ha out a good deal
more each year that the fair was held in
that city. It was shown tliat tho poli
cy of rotation from city to city in the
state was a wiser plan. These tilings
having been set forth in a very clotr
light to the city council of Macon, that
hotly went to thinking. Tho
unit is that the city rif Macon will meet
tho society on half way groundsof a com
promise. Tho fair association will lio
allowed to take tho fair to somo other
city every other year. This year it will
bo nilowcd to hold the fair wherever it
pleases to have it, but next year it
must bo held in Macon.
In speaking of tho matter, President
Waddell, of tho State Agricultural So
ciety, said: “Every interest in Georgia
Is coucernod in this matter, for it affects
tlie railroads and bmincss men equally
with the agriculturist!, and when this
proposition of Macon it understood, I
fool confident it will lie readily aud cor
dially endorsed. Tho Htaco Agricultu
ral Society is indebted to the railroads
and the press of the stato for many cour
tesies, and much material aid. They
havo recognized this umfulnees of the so
ciety aud have so acted.”

SEKI0U8 FACTS ABOUT BREAD
A serious danger menaces the health
of the people of this country in the nu
merous alum baking powders that aro
tiuw being urged upon the public.
'llicro is no question as to the dclri-
trcnlal effect of these powdors upon the
system. Every Board of Health, every
phya.cian, will tell you of the unwhole
some qualities they add to the food.
Some countries have absolutely pro
hibited the sale of bread containing
alum.
Even small doses of alum, given to
children, have produce! fatal results,
while eases of heartburn, indigestion,
griping, constipation, dyspepsia, ami
yarn us kindred gastric troubles from
irritation of the mucous membrane,
cuiiFcd by the continuous use ot food
prepared with the alum or alum plios-
pirate powders, arc familiar iu the prac
tice ot every physician.
It is not possible that any prudent
housewife, any loving mother, will
knowingly use on article of food that
will injure the iicnlth of her household,
or perhaps cause the death of her chil
dren.
llow shall the dangerous alum powders
be distinguished? And how shall the
dancer to health from their us-j be
avoided t
Generally, alum powders may be known
from the price at which they nro fold,
or from the fact that they are arem-
panied by a gift, are disposed of uuder
some fcherae. The alum powder costa
hut a lew cents a pound to make, and is
often sold at 20 or 2S cents a pound.
If feme present is given with it, the
price may he 30, 40 or 50cents a pound.
It is impossible to nauio all the alum
powders in the market, but any baking
powder sold at a low price, or adver"
tizcil as costing only half as much as
cream of tsrtar powders, accompanied by
a present, or disposed of trader any
scheme, is of this class, detrimental to
health, and to bo avoided.
But ibc easy, sale, au*i certain protec
tion of our bread, biscuit nnd cake from
all daugcr of unwholcsomeucss is in the
use of the Royal Baking I’owdcr only.
This powder is mentioned because of the
Innumerable reports in its favor by high
medical authorities by the l;. H. Gov
ernment, and by the offio al chemists and
Boards ol Heultb, widen leave no doubt
ra to its entire Irccdom from alum, lime
and ammonia, ila absolute purity an 1
wliolesomcness. While its use is thus a
safeguard against the poisonous alum
powdeis it is satisfactory at tho same
tunc to know tliat it makes the whitest,
lightest, sweetest and most delicious
food, which will keep moist and fresh
longer, und that can be eaten with im
munity hot or cold, stnlc or fresh, and
also that owing to its greater strength It
is more economical than others.
i hese facti should incline enuaurners to
turn n deaf car to all importunities to
buy the inferior powder. If a grocer
urges the sale of the cheap, impure, alum
brands, it should be b* rue in mind that it
is because he can make more profit o.
•belli. The wise housekeeper will declin-
in all cases to take them.

Taking Cold.
A person ia ^ood health with fair play
easily rceisls cold. But when the health
flags a little, and liberties are taken with
the stomach or the nervous system, a
chill is essily taken, and according to the
weak spot of the individual assumes the
form of a cold or pneumonia, or it may
be jaundice. Of all cases of “cold”
probably fatigue is one of the most effi
cient. A jaded man coming at night
from a long day’s work, a growing youth
losing two hours sleep over evening par
ties two or ttareo times a week, or a
young lady “Joing the season,” and
over-fed children with a short allowance of
sleep, are common instances of the vice
tima of cold. Luxury is favorabie to th,
chill tnking; very hot rooms, 6oft chsirst
feather beds create a sensitiveness tha,
leads to catarrh. It is not, after alls
the cold that is so much to be feared a-
the antecedent condition that gives the
attack a chance of doing harm. Some
of the worst colds happen to those who
do not leave their house or even their
bed, and those who are most invulner
able are often those who are most expos
ed to change of temperature, and who
by good sleep, cold bathing and regular
habits preserve the tone of their uervous
system and circulation.

Justice of the Peace, George Wil

Minn., makes'a deposition concern
ing a severe cold. Listen to it. “In
the Spring of 1888, through ex
posure I contracted a very severe
cold that settled on my lungs. This
was accompanied by excessive night
sweats. One bottle of Boschee's
German Syrup broke up the cold,
night sweats, aud all and left me
in a good, healthy condition. I can
give German Syrup my most earnest
commendation.” ®
