In Leavenworth, Kan a., the other day nearly every doctor in town was called to attend the children who had gathered up, eaten, and been made ill by samples of an article left at houses by can vasscrs for advertising purposes. Alum baking powders have always been favorite articles for this sampling business. Yet there is nothing more liable to lead to dan gcr than the practice of using the various samples of baking powder left at the door. They arc present' cdby irresponsible parties, in ap pearance arc not distinguished from aracnic, and indeed, in Indiana some time since one package was found, after it had caused the death of the housewife, to have been mixed with that poison. It is 6afcrto refuse all samples of food or medicine offered at the door. Pure cream of tartar baking pow ders sell upon their merits, and are never peddled or sampled, Dedication Sorvicos.
