8 THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE SUNDAY. DECEMBER 22, 1878—SIXTEEN PAGES. POISONING THE CHILDREN. Uuscrupulous Manufacturers and Cheap Confectioners to Blame—Where to Get Pure Candies. How the doting parent would be shocked if told that bis little darlings were eating arsenic, and how keen would be his auguish if nelearned st the polson was sdministered by his own land? And yet how many parcots are thoughtlessly endangering the health and even the lives of their children by allowing them 10 eat cheap candies mage of the most imnpure and even filthy materials, and adultered with all inanner of poisonous coloring matter? The ‘recent investigations of ihe United States revenue ofticials disclosed a most wlanning system of adulterations practiced at some of tlie Eastern sugar refincries, and it was “found zhat the bulk of this adulterated sugar was scld to the manufacturers of cheap candies, Tuese unwholesonie compounds_bear about the same relation to pure cands that the noxious toad-stool does to the delicate mushroom. It is something terrible to think that when we woula gladden the learts of the dear little oues with the lonz expected holiday sweets, we run the risk of feeding them . poisonous stull 1hat is liable to carry disease and even death jnto therr delicate systems. Tne TRIBUNE bas had oceasion to refer to this matter in the past, and it has been shown that certain deslers offer what they call ¢ bank- rupt stocks” of candy at - prices below the auctnal cost of the raw suzar. - Of course the in- fvence is plain. Such candy must necessarily *e adulterated, and the purchaser must take his chances on the particular _kind of poisun to be found therein. It is creditable to Chicago, however, that some of our leading confectiouers arc willing to suler a loss of business rather than sucrifice their 1eputations by offering such aduiterations Lo their customers. To secure sweetmeats, therc- Sore, that will be sbsolutely pure, and alike pinssing to botk old and yotug,2purchases must be wade from stretly Feliable houses, and as sueh strictly reliable nouses T1E TRINUNE can cordially recommend the foilowing: g C.

Hang vour stockings high, for there was an jmmense pumber ot Christmas presents pur- ebased in the Iast few days. Avother elevator accilentlast week. The city suthorities cannot start the Elevator In- spector on his rounds any 100 soon. “ne livery-steble men are now rejoicing in tho best sleighing season seen in Chicago for years. As usual at_this season of the year. the pala- 1ial store of N. Matson & Co. is thronged to overflowine with the substantial people of the city sclecting Christmuas gifts. Their immense and varied stock of new zoods makes their trade 1nis vear extremely brisk and satisfactory. 1o furcizn poods, especially dimmonds, all of heir own importation, .they seem to control the trade. :, A colored woman aged 60 is suine a colored youth aged 2)for breach of promise. He was allowed to run up 2 bir board bill on the strength of his vows of affection, and now that he has yroved false, she swears that she *bain’t azoin’ to chuck wittles into his black carcass for nuthin’, nohow.” ‘The convenience, beauty, and adaptability of the upright piano to the réquirements of any agartment was conceded by the best musical au- thorities when_ this style'was first inrroduced. The only question raised was the ability of any maker to construct pianos of that shape that would prove_enduring in tone. This difficulty was grapoled with at the outset, however, by Miessre. Hallet, Davis & Co., and, by making a patiens and understanding” study of all the causes and effects, they were enabled to develop prindples sud improvements which have wiven their uprights a world-wide reputation for re- maining permanentiy in tuoc. As they control alltliepatentsior toese improvements, no pianos af other makers can contain them. Mr. W. W. Kimball is the. only person in Chicago who can sell you these glorions musical triumphs. . What {s more asgravatingthan, when start- fuzont in a heavy snow-siorm, to attempt to button.your overcoat up to the neck, and ascer- 1ain tnat the only button on the cost is located down at its equator? New-Year’s rceeptions promise to be nnusu- ally brilliant this year. judging from the mas- nificent toilets that. Ghormley is preparing for leading snviety belles. This artist has fairiy sur passed binelf in these exquisite creations. If your girl azes fntently at vour fect about 1his time, don’t grow pervous and draw them up under your chair, nor think that she is amused at tueir immensity. She is only tak- ing a mental measure of them, and on New Year's she’ll sarprise you with a georzeous pair of -elippers, decorated with o bumoch of em- broidered ereen tulips, or a blue canary with a yeliow tail. ‘With all our boasted inventive zenius we are yet unable to produce anything equal in artistic beauty to the elegant ereations of the Japanese worxmnan. Those who have any doubts ou this ‘poiot should call at A. H. Blackall’s Tea Em- porium. 49 Clark street, znd examine tbe hand- some stock of Japanese curios which this gen- tleman has imported expressiy for the becefit of bis patrons desirine tastetul heliday souve- nirs. Blackall also has some beautiful 1a-quered boxes containing three to five pounds of the choicest reas for the approaching festivi- ties. These rare importations can be found only at the above-mentioned number and at the braoch house, corner Madison and Halsted. He was a grave man of philosophic air, and, as be watched the proeress of a lively fight be- tween a couple of Brideeport bloods, be re- marlzed: “That’s an eloquent argument in fa- vor of marriage. If them two men had wives ut home they wouldn’s neither of them be re- dooced to mashin’ a friend. It's low down, that Xinder thing is.” The mew revolving library, dining, and biitiard table iotroduced by the J. M. Bruns- ‘wick & Balke Co., -No. 47 aud 49 State street, is one of tne neatest things in the market. It 13 made of solid walnut, with tasteful iron 1rame, and of the best workmanship. 1t can be changed at will from au ordinary table to a per- fect billiard-table, with rubber cushions and smooth action, equal to any_full-sized $300 table. When used as an ordinary table, it forms a handsome and serviceavie piece of furniture, and just the thing for a holiday present. 1f it was as easy to break up a cutteras itis 10 break the Sabbath, how the drives would be strewn with the wrecks of the stylish turnouts this evening! ‘The display of novel designs in New-Year’s callinr cards ‘at Dunwell & Ford’s, stationers and eugravers, 52 Madison street, {s acknowl- edged by ol to be the finest in the city. ‘Do yon think,” writesa young student of human cconomy, “do you think the human race is decavinz?” Not at all, not at all. Tart of it isu’t decayine because it is yet alive, ana the portion of it that is dead doesn’t decay because the medical student don’t give it 8 chance. Those wanting anything in the pastry line should eall at Woodman's bakery and restau- rant, 61 Washiogton street, just west of State. 3tr. Woodman is samous for his excellent fruit- cale for the holidays, and this year his stock is larger and finer than ever, and his prices re- markably low. The very decollette style of the ladies dresses at recent society” gutheriugs . sugrest_the idea that a “ full-dress®® ball is so called because 1he fioor of the ball-room is 1all of dresses. A rrood joke was perpetrated during the last ‘week by the proprictor of the Bryant & Strat- 1on Business College. A small “** Great Busi- vess Collere ™ issued 3 circular reflecting on the old reliable, whereupon the O.

Paper kerosene cans are the latest. By using them servant girls aud kitchens can be blown up much cheaper than they can be with the tin article. ‘The choicest assortment of pare confections and other holiday coods can be found at L.

It was said of two sisters, twins, that they had to be iold evervthing tozether, because they are so exactly alike that they can’tbe told apart. Those Seautiful Christmas-tres ornaments at Helssler & Junge’s. 349 State street, have at- tracted crowds of little folks during the past week, ard older ones have found no less pleas- ure in the display of clezant confections, cake and pastry, for which this firm is celebrated. The )zd who accidentally satdown onared-hot stove, peneively remarked that be was reminded of the retreating General who burned his bridges bebind him. z To accommodate the rush of patrons who were unable to secure sittings during the past week, Smith's photographic studio, 206 North Clark strect, will be open Christmas Day.

It is now thought that the thirtcen-inch toot- prints in the Counecticut sandstone were made by a St. Louis girl-baby. The compound cubebs cigarettes manufactur- ed by Messra. Gale & Blocki are wonderfully effective for catarrh or ¢old in the head. : An Eastern paper says that Lorne's little evening-dress show might well have been called the ‘*Canadian Low-Necksibition.” You can rely upon geLting pier and mantel- slasses at strictly manufacturers® prices when buving of Cogeeliall, 278 Wabash avenue.

Owen and 3. C. Baldwin, with their consort barges Agnes L. Potter and Jessie Linn, hitherto owned snd managed by the Owen Brothers. The new Company was orzanized, it secms, with this object especially in view. Their charter grants them privi- ieges in transporting -iroz ore and other {freiznt between Escanaba snd Milwaukee and Chicago, and, as the incorporstors are all in- terested in the North Chicago Rolling-Mill Com- pany, this gives them the wmouopoly of the ore and coal-carrying trade of the roiling-mills at Chicago and Milwaukee. A private letter from Capt. R. P. Fitzgerald, dated at Detroit yesterday, announces that the steam barges Barnum and Kershaw are there, with the prospect of wintering. They spent a nizht in the ice off Colchester, at the head of Lake Erie. Ice is floatine past Detroit from Lake St. Clair between five and sixinches thick, and in cousiderable quantities. ‘The tug H.
