rrcpurntlons.
The omco and laboratory of this company
occupies the west end of the building at 111'
Howard street , and their Institution Is cer-
alnly one of which Omaha can boast. It Is
' .lie only enterprise of the kind west of
.hlcaBO , and In the United States there are
not more than a score of bouses who devote
their entire attention to the production of
such goods. It Is an Industry of which the
general public has but a meager Idea , owing
? fact that lta Products are entirely
scientific and used principally by pharmacists
and the profession of
medicine. Ko\v per
sons can believe that live floors and basement
of such a building can possibly bo utilized
for the purpose of preparing medicine , but
T they will visit the laboratory of the Mercer
Chemical Company they will experience some
thing of a revelation. In the last few years
the onward strides of pharmacy and thera
peutics have Investigated tlio products of
every region on the face of the earth In the
search for the hidden bounties of nature
which , by scientific treatment and prepara
tion , can bo rendered useful to the needs of
man. In the crude drug department of the
Mercer Chemical Company can bo found
hundreds of varieties of roots , herbs leaves
flowers , barks , fruits , bcrrle * , etc. , embracing
the products of nearly every nation and region
of the world. Licorice root from Spain ,
saraaparllla from Honduras , vanilla beans
from Mexico , bucliu leaves from Franco
saw palmetto berries from Florida , anise seed
from Italy , senna from Bgypt , sandal wood
from Turkey and cantharldes from China are
a few of the articles noticed In original pack
ages In hurried Inspection of this department ,
The people of Nebraska will bo surprised to
learn that many medicinal herbs are Indi
genous to this state. Such Is the fact , how
ever , and as the Mercer Chemical Company Is
composed of Nebraska men , who believe In
the doctrine of patronizing homo industry ,
they now secure their supplies of corn-silk
cchlnacea , augustlfolla , prlcltly ash berries
etc. , from collectors whom they have Inter
ested In these products In Nebraska.
The crude drugs constitute the principal
basis of pharmaceutical product ! , and It Is
Interesting In the extreme to watch their
progress through the different channels of
treatment until they are finally perfected Into
market form either ns extracts , pills , tritu
rates or some other form well known In
medical parlance. The drug Is first groum :
up ( or percolation , then Bent to the extract
department , where the medicinal virtue Is
extracted by maceration with alcohol , pro
ducing a fluid extract. Each and every such
extract is assayed by an expert chemist am
must be equal to the standard adopted by the
United States Pharmacopeia. After that I
can be reduced to a solid extract or a pow
der extract , or any form desired either for
marketing or for manufacturing purposes
The fluid extract department Is equipped wlth ,
forty-eight large copper percolators , capable
of producing thousands of gallons of extracts
weekly , and all other necessary apparatus
such as Jacket cans , stills , filter racks , stean
kettles , etc. . Is provided. The label depart
inent and finishing room Is operated with a
much care as If every label were a piece o
money , and the girls who bottle the prepara
tlons must make exact returns of label
used. The utmost accuracy Is preserved In
this , as many of the mcdlclnoi are poison
In the pill department drugs and chemical
are converted Into pills , sugar and gelatin
coated , of all sizes and colors. This re
quires steam drying rooms , mass rolling ma
chines , pill cutting machine ) and largo steam
drums and fans for coating. In tUe table
and lozenge rooms four large compressing
machines convert dry powdered drugs Int
tablets ot any size desired at the rate o
sixty per minute from each machine.
The products of the Mercer Chemical Coin
pany , as lilted In their catalogue , consist o
about teren thousand different preparations
embracing a full line of fluid , solid ant
pondered extracts , medicinal syrups , wine
and elixirs , compressed tablets , mi gar coatci
and gelatine coated , pills , triturates , standari
tinctures , hypodermic tablets , granular cfferv
enctnt salts and a large number of Eclcntlll
medicinal specialties which are nmnufacturec
solely by them.
Their trade extends all over the west an
their specialities are used In every state I
the union. About fifty people In all ar
employed , many of whom are expert chemist
and graduates In pharmacy.

"A.LUCKY ESCAPE , "
OAV , IV Mrs. Thornton
always called her husband
Pa. "Now , 1'a , " iho said ,
"It we are to start to tee
the children tomorrow , wo
mutt get our money out
' of the lunk today , ( or we
have to lalto the irs
powerful early , an * we
on't get no chance tlicn. I've gut n bit hid
way under the spare room feather bed nnd
ho last butter and PRS money In the china
ea pot , but that ain't more'n enough for our
allway tickets. So you hitch up ole Tolly

gettln1 on , for agin you get back It will bo
ale an' you might get robbed , and killed
cad , for $ SOO Is a deal of money , and these
s wicked an' desperate times.
With this parting piece of consolation Mrs.
Thornton wiped her heated and moist coun-
enance with the corner of her apron , slipped
ler spectacles from the top of her head to
heir proper plaoo. nnd was about to hurry
M to the house when something occurred to
ler , for nhi > turned back , saying1 "Oh , yea !
putty nigh forgot ; I can't Imko them car-
iway cook Ira after all ; 1 ain't got a bit of

"Oh , yes , I forgot the hat band I want to

noney and paper collars. Maybe you best
o write it down. " Hut Mr. Thornton phoo-
> hoocd at the Idea , so his wife went on Into
he house to begin the numerous tasks she
ia\v before her , all of which must be finished
> Eforo bedtime.
It wasn't long before she was busily at
vork nnd Mr. Thornton could be seen drlv-
ng down the lane toward town. Industriously
dapping the old horse on the back with the
lues , and she taking her accustomed trot ,
nnd paying no more attention to It than as
.hough It had been a fly. Mr. Thornton ,
lowever , working away Just the same.
Mr. and Mrs. Thornton were honest , trust-
ng , simple-minded people , good hearted tea
a fault , but lacking much In knowledge of
he present ways of doing business , elss they
vould not have wanted to carry the $800
n person.
Everybody knew that Mr. and Mrs. Thorn-
on were going to see their only son , who
Ived In another state , and who , since his
narrlage , and the recent crop failure , had
jeen obliged to mortgage his pretty place
aim now it
would s > eon bo
due.
"Thursday n
week , " Mrs.
Thornton kept
saying , "Is our
boy's birthday ,
an' won't bis
big eyes shine
when he sees
what his pa's
bro't him , " Kor
they had
planned that this
same JSOO waste
to bo the birth
day present that
should pay off
the Indebted
ness , co that
what their boy
had already
saved toward It
could bo laid by
for a rainy day
nest egg.
So Mrs. Thorn
ton's mother
heart was very
light na she al
most flow from
ono task to an-
nthpr. Sim WAR
\ /V , X * \ > finishing sooner

"The strange man. "
> ected , nnd everything was coming out
ill right. The "alpacky" looked like new ,
the trunk was packed , and the basket and
napkins hunted up far the lunch ,
Already the tea kettle was singing- away
on the stove and the bright glow from the
open hearth was reflected cheerfully from
the opposite wall and the hickory sticks
snapped and crackled merrily. The table
was set and sundry savory orders were
emlnating from the open kitchen door.
She knew Mr. Thornton would bo hungry ,
BO It was no lunch she was preparing , tat
a good supper. She looked up at the old-
fashioned clock , with Its glass door , painted
with bright , stiff flowers , and give a start
ns the noticed how late H had grown. Why ,
she had been to busy sha had scarcely
realized It was growing dark.
She went to the gate and looked anxiously
down the road , but she could not ECS , for It
was growing so hazy so she went slowly
back to the house.
Mr. Thornton , In the meantime , had gotten
to town , though the old buggy had broken
down on the way , and by so doing had de
layed him so he scarcely had time to get
his money. Fortunately , In that little town
"Sho went to the sate nd looked anxiously
/own the road. "
the banks did not close at 3 o'clock , as they
do with us In the city. Ha then finished
his wife's errands and went to the post oinco
for the letters and weekly newspaper.
Hut his Journeys away from home wen !
so few and ills pleasure at being able to
take the money with him wore so great that
he Incautiously remarked about U while at
the store. This being what Is called a gen
eral stora , It was aluo a general loafing plac ? ,
and he had no sooner uttered the \\ordi to
his friend Sawyer than ha regretted thorn ,
for at that moment lie notlc'd a man sitting
on tlio sugar barrel opposite him who seemed
listening for more. Rut , thinking no hiore
about It then , he said good bye to them all
and , untying old Polly , started for homo.
"Why , blame me , U It ain't eettln' late. "
he remarked to Sawyer as lie clucked at the
old hone preparatory to starting. "Shouldn't
wonder It 'Llcabeth wai worrying about me
already. "
He hadn't gone far on Ills homeward way
when he commenced ( rotting about the safety
of bl money , the remark lie hail rrmdo In thn
store and the etrango man lie bad teen
there.
The old horse leemcd to be going lowe
tbnn cror and the trail's fuco fairly ( o hxunt
him.
him.Ho
Ho looked around apprehensively nt ovcry
turn In the road. U ho only could get tin
money out ot his pocket.
Now , Mr , Thornton w s shrewd In many
ways , even It Impplness did make him Indiscreet -
discreet at UIHM , nnd he Mlrly trembled
now nt the loss of his money nnd of tha
lots It would bo to his boy. Ills eyes fell
upon the big can of baking powder. So , hur
riedly catching It up nnd drawing his knlfo
from his pcckot , he In'gsn cutting around
the bright , neat label. Opening ono of tha
iwper * . he hastily dumped the contents In'o
It , drew forth the bills nnd encased them
In the empty r.ui , refilling the space with
powder ; then , doing tip the rest and putting
It under the seat with n little loose liny over
It , ho drew a long sigh of relict nnd drove nn.
Ho had been none too soon , for on onlTltiK
the little strip of wood , the grove they
called it. that lay betncccn him nnd home
the trees changed the twilight lute darkest
night.
I-'lvo minutes Inter a muffled voice cried
"Halt ! " And old Polly wns stopped whether
the would or not. Mr. Thornton wn * tied
hand nnd foot , gngged nnd deliberately
searched , the masked Indlvldunt then gave
him n blow on the head and Mr. Thornton
knew no more.
Mrs. Thornton In the mosnwhlle was grow
ing more nnd moro worried. She hnd gen
to the gate countless times. The sttppsr hnd
been done nnd cold for two hours In split
of her efforts to keep It nlco.
As she wns Just about tti go to the neigh
bors for help , for olio knew something mini
hnvo happened , here came old Polly slowly
up the Une. She roomed to be moving care
fully , ns though she carried a strange and
precious burden Mrs. Thornton was by her
side In a mlnuto. Realizing nil nt a glnnci
she ran to the house nnd returned with a
sharp knife and n bottle of spirits. The rones
were cut , tlia bottle pressed to the pale llp
and soon Mr. Thornton wns quite himself ,
trying between gasps to tell his wlfo nil
about It.
It was only the work of n moment to
search for the cnn of baking powder , but
that was n breathless one. Hut yes no-
yes ! thank God ! It was there and the con
tents safe.
Mr. Thornton Insisted on starting the next
day nnd Mrs. Thornton in turn Insisted on
baking the carrowny cookies , for she couldn't
bear the- thought of disappointing the chil
dren. They both concluded that the cnn
should stand just as It WHS , ns there was
plenty and to spare In the paper of course.
Mrs. Thornton nt oncu prepared a fresh
supper. It was the work of a mlnuto lo
mnko n pan of delicate biscuit , boll somu
eggs nnd mnlto toma fresh tea and they sat
down with thankful hearts.
Pa Thornton looked pleased when he saw
the big plateoC buscult , nnd when he had
opened one , ho said : "Llzabeth , this bljctilt
Is like a big , brown , fluffy snow ball , Its RO
whlto nnd light , nobody can beat you , 'Liz-
nbcth , on baking. "
Mrs. Thornton actually blushed at tht
compliment , but modestly replied tlut any
V i
rf /
"no began cutting nroumi the lil.it ) , neat
abel. "
ono who used Iloyal Halting Powder could
tavo ns gocil success.
"Pa , " she said , "Hoyal Making Powder
tas always been a household treasure with
us , but now It will be aacrcd , for , nfter
lelng our friend for all these years , It lias
aved the JSOO , nnd our boy'a homo.
After supper , late as It was , the carroway
cookies were made , and they were perfect , of
course. Mrs. Thornton was noted for them ,
