CALUMET*’

a
It says “Calumet” — For the
critical housewives of America have
found that Calumet Baking Powder
makes the most appetizing, light,
wholesome food — that Calumet
is the most economical and dependable
of all Baking Powders.
If you, too, Mrs. Ilfcusewife, want to learn what Calumet means
to you, bake with it just one batch of biscuits. If you don’t find it
unlike any other — so much greater in leavening power — in uniformity
— in purity — return it, and get your money back.
That’s all we ask — and think what it means to you to always be
sure that each time you bake you will have the most tempting biscuits,
pastry, etc. Think of it— the highest quality Baking Powder at a
moderate price — the most economical in use. Cheap big can kinds
give you quantity, but not quality. High-priced trust brands mean
extravagance. For np Baking Powder can be equal in quality’ to
Calumet. Was not that proven when it received the Highest Award
at World’s Pure Food Exposition ?

Don’t be deceived — ask for Calumet — and get it.

Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 21.—"My hat
is in the ring.”
That is what'Theodore Roosevelt
said here last night when an admiring
Cleveland friend sought' to learn whe-
ther he was a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for the Presiden-
cy.
During the brief stay of Col. Roose-
velt in Cleveland W. F. Eirick. well
known locally in politics, greeted the
former President, whom he knows
well.
"i want, a direct answer. Colonel,”
said Mr. Eirick. All your friends
want to know, and want to know now,
whether you are to be a candidate. '
“My hat is in the ring," replied Col.
Roosevelt. "You will have my an-
swer Monday."
Two of the big subjects diesussed l».v
Theodore Roosevelt in his address i»e-
fore the Ohio constitutional convention
are the regulation of corporations and

Special to The Heraid.
Washington, Feb. 22.—Senator John
Sharp Williams Of Mississippi, in de-
claring today for Gov. Wilson, for the
Democratic nomination says that he
does so solely for public reasons and
notwithstanding that he and Champ
Clark and Oscar Underwood served
side by side in the House for a num-
ber of years.
Jle says: "Mv personal relations
with Cham-p Clark and Oscar Under-
wood, with both of whom 1 served for
vears in the House of Representatives
in intimate assocaition, are much clos-
er thpn the relations constituted by
my acquaintance with Gov. Wilson.
My sole reasons therefore, for advo-
cating the nomination of Woodrow
Wilson are public reasons. I think he
can be elected if nominated.
"if elected he wil make one of the)
very best Presidents we have ever had.
Hence as a Democrat and as a citizen,
I favor him. His election at the head
of a Democratic ticket in the rockrib-
bed Republican State of New Jersey,
heretofore seemingly hopelessly tariff-
bought and trust ridden, shows his
strength. His administration there j
shows his ability, honesty and quali-
ties or civic righteousness unexcelled.”
