Coarse sandstone is capabl^Tf bold-
ing a great quantity of water, a*
much as six quarts per cubic foot;
but the rate of its
through thia rock Is so slow as to
be almost inappreciable.
To illustrate how slow the water
travels: Many artesian or tiewing
wells are found along the Potomac
river at Colonial Beach and other
pionts in Virginia, about sixty miles
south of Washington. This water
is obtained by drilling into the
sandstone formation which extends
along the Potomac valley and Into
; Maryland and out rops near Fred-
' erick, Maryland, some fifty miles
north of Washington. It take^
about 100 year*, for the water of
this "subterranean r»v*y” to flow
that distance; that is, the rains
falling upon the exposed portion*
of the rock near Frederick sink in
and move southward at the rate of
about one mile a year. The water
issuing from the wells at Colonial
Beach today fell as rain on the up-
landsz*nd mountains of Maryland
around about the time that Wash-
ington was president of the young
American republic.

BACK TALK.
We confess in the first place that
even our veneration for her greac
husband is insufficient to arouse
our indignation over the summary
dismissal of Mrs. Longstreet. from
iher (postmastership. Not particu-
larly pardsan. we believe that there
me circumstances under which Mrs.
Longstreet not only should but
would have been-retained in office.
But Mrs. Longstreet seems to for-
ge; that she was offensively parti-
san last fall, and that she did all
she could to turn Georgia into the
Bull Moose column. That she failed
was fore-evident. But now
failed, tt ill becomes her, as ve

Mammy now uses Calumet Baking Powder instep of sour milk and
soda, or the cheap and big-can kind, because it ismrore convenient—
because she knows from experience that the baking will be lighter,
daintier and more uniformly raised—that it will keep fresh longer,
Calumet is certain of good results—it 5s purer and more wholesome
than the cheap big-can kind, and more economical in the end.
Give Calumet one trial. If it fails to give you absolute satisfaction
returu it and get your money back. If you don't get Calumet you don't
get the best.
