(T0 HAVE NB “Be TdE — BROWN & & CALKINS.Me P. BROWN. t. 6, CALKING.” wilohationy SSS AUG. 2, 1899. » Ao altogether original species of refor n has developed itself in Newark, N. J. ‘The Women’s Manicipal Improvement Associat ion of that city has dissovered that the waiter girlsemployed in restaurants are compelled to be too clean and tidy. Some of tke Jealing restaurateurs of Newark, in order to attract and hold a good class custom, endeavor to make the waitresves look aS neat as possible, and. wi ti that purpose in view bave stipuJated that the girls must wear a certain number of clean aprons and white ‘ehirtwaists daily. The claim. which forins the basis of the attack which the * Wemen’s Municipal Improvement Association is making upon the custom is : hat it involves too much expense on the part of the employes. There is no evidence going to show that the girls objact to the rule. There is every reason to believe that the people they wait on are favorable to it. Sou far as it is possible to judge, the reform movement against clean and attractive waiting maids is only another exhibition of the latter-day tendency upon the part of some pegple to meddle with some o:her people’s business. A story is going the rounds of a golf match between the Rev. Dr. Sterret and Justice Harlan of the United S:ates Supreme Court. Theincident occurred at the Chevy Chase Golf Ciub, one of the prominent organizations near Washington, during a meeting between these two ardent golfers. ‘The doctor discovered his‘ ball teed np in tempticg style for a fine brussie shot, and, with the utmost aeliberation, he went through the preliminary “waggles” and with a supreme effort—missed the ball For fully » minute he gazed at the tantalizing sphere without uttering a word A’ length Justice Harlan remarked. solemnly: “Doctor, that was the most profane silence I ever listened to.” There must be a good deal of difference between the rouds of France: and those of the United States if judged by the automobile records. In the former country two automobiles ran 226 miies at the rate of twenty-three miles per hour, beating an expfess train, wile the automobile which-has started out to cross this continent ran thirtyfive miles and had-a break down.. It is twenty days since Davis’ automobile started from New York Oily, and to dute it -has traveled only about 500 miles. There has lately been much speculatioa regarding the origin of the word “tip.” The truth is that in an old English taverh a receptacle for small cvin was fixed in a conspicuous place, over which appeared in writing, “To jusure promptness.” Whatever was placed in the box was divided among the servants. Other taverns followed the example, and soon the words were a’reviated to T. I. P. ‘here must be something in Mr. ‘ O.rnegie’s proposition that it is a disgrace to die rich, else the possessors of great wealth would not try so hard to put off the disgrace as long as possible. Kolly (growing pathetic)—Pity a poor, unfortunate man, Kelliher, thot’s gt to go home to his woife! Kelliber -—Lrace up Kelly! Brace up! Ye sbould be thankful ye are not the Sultan!

He says he and his comrades are anxious to get hone again, Dr. Monnish of Atlanta, Ga., who has been visiting the county as the guest of P. M. Moroney of the Slide mime at French Corral, left here today for San. Francisco. It is likely he will conclude to invest in the mining industry in this county. A Grass Valley printer deowatiy tried his hand at farming, but couldu’t make things work right, and is now back at th case, He bad a. wrong font team —a mule and a horse—and this would not justify.. He said the farmer fired him after he had “pied” three or. four “columns” of potatoes. He showed his limited experience by asking the farmer’s wife if she wanted the hens set leaded or solid. END OF A NIGHT'S JAMBOREE Two Hill's Flat Young Mon Must Tay . + > For Their. Fan. Abcut twelve o’clock last night Frank (“Pitcby ’) Carnana and young. Miller of Hili’s Flat came to the county’ seat in a one horse buggy from the livery stable of J. D. Blamey at Grass Valley. They were drank and drove around the streets at random, becoming boisterous towards morning. At eight o'clock they went aloug Washington street at ene side of the roadway and through their recklessiiess collided with a« pest at the side of St. Cunice church. The Singletree broke and the’ horse got away, but they soon’ recovered it, patched up the break and went down Ooyote street. In. front of the gas works they drove into a.derélict wagon at. the side of the street and their vehicle was capsized and smashed. The horse which had been badly mistreated fell and was shockingly injured, probably being ruined. Oaruana ‘went across suspension bridge and -wanderinginto Mrs.G. von Schmittburg's quently arrested there for disturbing the peace.

Languor, loss of appetite, indigestion and often feverishuess are 1hé Common symptoms of a physiological cdndition termed “ntalariu.” Ail these symptoms may be and frequently are the effect of the use of alum buking powders in food ‘making. ‘There is no question about the poisonous effect of alum upon the system. It obstructs digestion, prostrates the nerves, coagulates been niade clear, thanks to physicians, boards of health,and food commissions. So “highly. injurious to the health of the community” does the eniinent head of the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Barker, consider ‘the alum baking powders, that he = says should be prohibited by law.” Under these circumstances it is worth the while of every housewife to employ the very littlecare that is necessary to keep so daugerous an element from the food of her family. A pure cream of tartar baking powder, which is the only kind that should be used, ought to cost about forty-five to fifty cents a pound. Therefore, if you are paying much less, something is wrong; if you are paying twenty-five cents or less per pound, the powder is ceeainlt made from alam. Always bear thine iiaple facts in mind when purchasing bukiug powder.
