OMAHA husbands are bravely mincing their dinners alone these even
ings. Now this assertion Is not signaling any note of alarm, and
It Is not because the repasts spread are lens inviting than they
used to be. It Is that very last cup of tea bis consort enjoyed at
ihe Fontenelle that Is taking the plaee of (he wholesome substantiate.
When our new and long-looked-for tea room spreads tucb dalaty
morsels and serves tea In such enticing tea things, how can any one be
expected to relish a dinner, no matter how well It Is done?
One loving husband says he is quite tired of enjoying his food alone,
even though his fair one. sitting opposite, is entertaining to the greatest
Segree. j
But apropos of the tea room many of the guests have ordered their
favorite plce with their tea and Invariably It has not been forthcoming. !
Is it because aplce at the Fontenelle is served only In the original!
BREAD LAW HOLDS
G00DJ18 YEARS
Philadelphia Has Not Chanted Or
dinance Since Days of George
Washington.
BEFORE COUNCIL THURSDAY
Philadelphia has bad (he same
bread ordinance since April 1, 1797.
and thin law Is not regsrded as any
Joke In the Quaker City, according to
information Just received by City
Clerk T. J. Flynn, who was directcl
by the city commissioners to gather
Information on bread laws from va
rious cities.
Ttie rhiIaVlriil bread ordinance pro
vide that a loaf of bread shall weigh one
IMiunJ avoirdupois, and that the seller
mini maintain regulated s-sles o that
purchasers may verify the welabt of the
bread, revision la made tor a fine of
$! for violation, half of tha money to o
'.o the "Informer" and half to the com
monwealth. The clerk of the market shall
"discover and prosecute. "
At the time of the pessage of the Phil
adelphia bread law George Washington
waa tetlrlng from public life and John
Qulnry Adams had been Inaugurated only
a abort time. Philadelphia, has not
changed the law In 11 years.
Ta Take It I' at Tharaa'ar.
The council. In committee of tha whole,
Monday announced the proposed new
bread ordinance would be made a special
order of business at 2 p. in. Thursday,
when full discussion will be allowed. A
delegation of master bakera attended the
committee meeting, expecting that the
ordinance would be disposed of. Jay
Burns and C. W. Ortman. representing
the bakers' association, presented a peti
tion said to contain the signatures of ,0?J
householders and taxpayers who favor
the passage of tbi proposed ordinance,
which gives the bakers the right to aeli
loaves of any weight If the weight Is Indicated.
Information tereived from other cities'

cltiea allow bakers to offer loaves of any
weight. Some cities have no specific
laws oa this subject.

GROWTH
To accommodate the constantly
growing patronage, it baa been
necessary to greatly increase the
space In the silk end dress goods
sections. The result of this In
crease Is that the Brandeia
Stores now have one of the larg
est departments devoted to silks
and dress goods In the country.
More than 4,600 square feet of
space are used in the main de
partment alone. This does not
Include the large basement sec
tions, nor other space thU fre
quently is devoted to these
stocks.
This growth is most gratifying
to ns, and is due solely to our
patrons. They know qualities
that are beat and coma to the

Don't
Ce Hisled
Just stop and think liow ridiculous
it is for anyone to make a statement
or claim that the so-called .Alum
Baking Powders arc in any way
injurious to health. The highest
authorities and most eminent scien
tists in the world have after careful
experiments of all kinds decided
that the so-called alum baking
powders are just as wholesome as
any other baking powders.
The Department of Agriculture,
which is the Pure Food Department
of the United States, have made
careful investigations and experi
ments, and find no reason to even
question their sale. They, too,
came to the conclusion that such
powders are just as wholesome as
other baking powders.
So-called alum baking powders are sold In
every State in the Union. If they were
not pure and wholesome, certainly the
food commissioner, would not permit their
sale. The Food Commissioner of each State
is not permitting to be sold anything that
is unwholesome. So-called alum baking
powders have been brought to their atten
tion for years, with the same results
they are pt;re snd wholesome.
It is important that everyone should know
that in the baking they do not eat baking
powder. Baking powder, during the pro
cess of baking, undergoes chemical change;
therefore, in an alum baking powder you
eat no alum, nor do you eat it any more
than the cream of tartar in a cream of tartar
baking powder; but the facts are that a
small percentage of residue is left in the
food from the use of so-called alum baking
powders, which is not injurious, and from
the use of Cream of Tartar powders, a large
percentage of residue is left in the food,
which is Rochelle Salts.
The only one that has attempted to dis
credit so-called alum baking powders or
claim that they are unwholesome is the
$30,000,000 Baking Powder TrotT that is
striving to intimidate the public so that
it can continue to get the exorbitant
prices for its goods, and divert the public
mind from the fact that its goods leave
large quantities of Rochelle Salts in the food.
Don't be misled by false, malicious, mis
leading advertisements. Remember so
called alum baking powders would not be
allowed to be sold if they were not perfectly
wholesome; also remember that 85 of the
baking powders consumed in the 'United
States axe so-called alum baking powders.
