of over 100000. Such a scheme
will probably be presented to the

THE deadly nature of the genuine
toy-pistol, which annually kills so
many small boys, is thus explained;
1t owes its resonance to a little
paper cap or wafer containing full
inmate of mercury. When the cap
explodes portions of it fly off from
the hammer, and frequently wound
the hand of the person discharging
the pistol. The mercury compound
is of such poisonous nature that
slight wounds produced by the frag-
ments of the wafer refuse to heal
and the usual result is n painful and
distressing death from lockjaw.

 Gentlemen-In August, 1875. had par alytic stroke which affected the right side of my body. could not speak for eight days. It was six weeks before could walk with the aid of a cane. For five and one-half years was ont of business. In June, 1881, met 8 man who had suffered from partial paralysis and rheumatism for eighteen years. He had not been able to walk more than a quarter of mile at time. He had been wearing Wilsonia for ffty-four days and was then able to walk three miles as well as most men. He advised me to see Prof. H. Smith, who had also been cured of paralysis by wearing Wilsonia. Satisfied that it was worth the experiment. purchased suit of Wilsonia on the 18th of June. In three months could walk without a cane and have $50, GOO and be as I was year ago.
 One merchant in this city who, by my rec ommendation, has wofn a suit of Wilsonia for eight weeks, is in better health than for ten years past. I also know of case of Ca- tarrh and Rheumatism cured by wearing the Wilsonia. Yours gratefully, E. O. l..
 There are scores in our city and in the country who have been equally benefited by ''Wilsonia," whose testimonials we have failed to receive, but enough have been ob- tained the past three years to establish the fact that 9 new BTOadWRy in the realm of Science has be- n demon strated. Magnetism and Electric ity converted into powerful agents for curing disease They have come to the front.

Facts are stubborn Things.

Is there nything in any of the numerous advertisements of the Royal Baking Powder to show that the Royal does not use am na9nia and tartaric acid as cheap substitutes for cream of tartar? Or is there any charge, or the slightest insinuation in those adver- tisements that Cleveland's Superior Baking Powder contains anything but the purest grape cream of tartar and bicarbonate of soda, with small portion of flour as pre-. servative?
 Ammonia and tartaric acid produce a cheap Isavening gas which is not to be compared, in the practical test of baking, with the more desirable carbonic acid gas generated by the exclusive use of the expensive cream of tar tar.
