druggist last
week for which I paid ten cents, and a few days later bought an
ounce at the dealers in photographic goods for which I paid ten
cents. Druggists keep good chemicals, but they charge more for
them. The formula for paste is as follows: 1 oz. best arrowroot,
40 grs. sheet gelatine, 1/2 oz. methylated spirits, 3 drops of
carbolic acid. Mix the arrowroot with 1 oz. of water, then add 7
oz. of water and the gelatine broken in bits. Boil for five
minutes, stirring all the time, and when nearly cold stir in the
spirits slowly, and then the acid. Keep tightly corked, and when
wanted for use take out a little and rub smooth with a knife.

Borden Eagle Brand Condensed Milk for nursing babies as well as for
general cooking. It has stood the test for 30 years, and its value is
recognized.--[_Adv._]
