In the formula for Rumtord's soup
given in my last, it is stated that the
bread should not be cooked, but added
Just before serving the soup. Like
everything else in his practical pro-
grammes, this was prescribed with a
philosophical reason. His reasoning
may have been fanciful sometimes, but
he never acted stupidity, rs the vular
majority of mankind usually do, when
they blindly follow al established Gus
tom without knowing any reason for
so doing, or even attempting to discover
reason.
In his essay on "The Pleasure of
Eating and Of the Means That May
Be Employed for Increasing 1t" he
says: "The pleasure enjoyed in eat
ing depends-first, on the agreeableness
of the taste of the food; and, secondly,
upon its power to affect the palate.
Now, there are many substances ex-
tremely cheap, by which very agreea-
BILE tastes may be given to food, partic-
ularly when the basis or nutritive sub
stance of the food is tasteless; and the
effect of any kind of palatable solid
food (of meat, for instanee), upon the
organs OF taste, may be increased al
most indefinitely, by reducing the size
Of the particles OF such food, and caus-
ing it to act upon the palate by larger
surface. And If means be used to pre-
vent its being swallowed too soon,
which may easily be done by mixing IL
with some hard and tasteless substance,
such as crumbs Of bread rendered hard
by toasting, or anything else of that
kind, by which long mastication Is
rendered necessary, the enjoyment oil
eating may be greatly increased and
prolonged" He adds that "the idea Of
occupying a person great while, and
affording him much pleasure at the
same time, in eating small quantity Of
food, may perhaps appear ridiculous
to some; but those who consider the
matter attentiyely will perceive that i,
is very important. 1t is, perhaps, al
much so as anything that can employ
the attention Of the philosopher. "-W
Mattieu Williams, IN Popular Science
Monthly.

WILL NOT TOUCH THE TARIFF.
Morrison and Carlisle Expect but Little
Work Mt this Session.
Washington telegram.l

Washington telegram
Representative Morrison, Chairman of
the Ways and Means Committee, was asked
tonight 10y IN Associated Press reporter
if he thought there was probability of
the enactment OF any tariff legislation at
the present session. He replied that he
had not yet had nm opportunity to ascer-
tain how the members felt upon the sub
ject. 1t might be that there had been
some modification of opinion by the Rep
resentatives since the last session. 1t was
certain, if there had not been some
change in views by the Democratic men,
beers, that no tax reduction could be had
except by the aid of Republicans.
He added: i do not propose to attempt
any experiments. but If upon inquiry find
there is reason to think bill proposing a
moderate reduction could pass this session
shall certainly bring in such bill.
I'm answer to further questioning Mr..
Morrison said it was not unlikely that dis
cussion OF legislation necessary to carry the
Mexican treaty into effect would open up
the general tariff question. The new treaty
with Spain in relation to the commerce OF
the United States with Cuba and Porto
Rico would be discussed in executive ses-
siOn Dy the StUute, anu NOull uot oS ihUiss
to lead to any open discussion of the tariff
questions. As to the other work Of the
session. Mr. Morrison said he understood
it was intended to push through the appro-
priation bills at once. There might also be
some land grant legislation, and this would
take up most of the time of the session.
Speaker Carlisle said tonight that it was
not probable there would be any general
tariff legislation this session. There is
not time, he said, and owing to the fac,
that new administration is about to come
in, Democrats and Republicans alike will
be disinclined to attempt anything like a
general revision of the tariff. The discus
sion of the Mexican treaty will probably
open mp the general tariff question and lead
TO some talk upon it, but nothing further
| than a discussion will prevail" He said il
was possible some attempts wonld be made
| this session to remedy certain inequalities
| in the present thrift, but it was too early Il
| predict the result.
Speaking of the rtport of the secretar,
OF the Treasury, MI. Carlisle expressed
satisfaction with the position taken b,
| Secretary MeCnlloeh on the tariff question
As to his recommendations that a new tariff
commission should be appointed Mr.. Car.
| isle said the present House would mo-
| consent that another commission should bt
| appointed by a Republican President.

NEVER YET QUESTIONED:
The Absolute Purity and WhoIesomeness of
ROYAL Baking Powder.

1t is noticeable fact that in the numerous
battles between the rival baking powder makers
the absolute purity and wholesomeness OF the
Royal Baking Powder has never yet been ques-
toned.
Hundreds of baking powders have been
placed upon the market with great flourish Of
trumpets, and have strutted their brief hour in
imaginary contention with Royal for the pat
ronage of the public, but their impurities and
imPerfectionS were soon exposed by the chem
lists skill and they speedily passed away, the
victims Of their mephitic gases, or are
awaiting the fate that sooner or later overtakes
the fraud and the charlatan.
But the thousands of analyses, many of them
by the most celebrated chemists of the world the
tbs d F,r by scientific bodies in
fore the Juries of competitive and industrial exhi-
billions. and all the minute and prejudiced nvesti-
cations by rivals and their chemists in the en-
deavor to find something upon which to base the
shadow of fault, have had but one result to more
Royal Baking Powder and all it's ingredients are
absolutely pure and wholesome All reputable
chemists and all but the most ignorant makers
Of the low test, short weight, lime alum and other
impure powders, long since ceased to examine the
Royal Baking Powder to find any thing impure or
Iunwholesome in it.
While the Royal Is proud of these unimpeach-
able ENDORSEMENTS and highly grati6ed at the per-
feet result which it has, by tho aid Of the most
competent chemists, the adoption Of every avail
able invention, and the expenditure Of great sums
OF money, been able to accomplish, it's greatest
pleasure arises from the fact that its abors have
been parallel with those great interests Of the
PUBLIC sought IN the protection Of the lives and
health of the people
The gravity of the danger to the consumer
from the impure and unwholesome baking pow
oers OF the market is but family appreciated. The
small amount of injurious substance impartedIto

is unnoticeable. They therefore continued by
