A DOubly Good Work.

All people Who eat are indebted to the
Ro'ai Baking Powder Company no, more
for having perfected and prepared leayen-
ing sgeni that is pure and wholesome be-
.ond question than for its exposures. so
boldly made. Of the numerous impure, adul-
tsrated and injurious articles tina, are sold
under the name Of baking powders, bread
preparations, etc, in this community. In
making these exposures the Company has, of
course, made Itself the target for all sorts of
counter attacks, but the anImus Of these at
tacks has been perfectly understood by the
general public. and by their very virulence
have served 10 more prominently call at
teniion 10 the good work Of the Royal"
Company.
Food frauds Of the usual class, such a.
wooden nurmegs. chleory coffee and watered
muA. although they are swindies in a com
msrc'n' sense. are often tolerated because
,he' DO net particularly afTec, the health Of
the consumer. Bat when an article like
baking powder that is relied upon for the
beautiful preparation of almost every meal
Is 50 made as to carry highly injurious If not
rsnk.y poisonous elements into our daily
food II would seem to be ,h- dut. Of the press
rs well a. Of the criminal authorities to take
coguiEance of 1t.
In the fight for pure food made by the
"Royal' Company some time ago, when its
guns "ere particularly trained against the
alum baking powders. 1t was noticed that
the most Trustworthy scientific authorities
were emphailcally upon It's side SO in the
recent contest with the lime and other in
pure baking powders the result has proved
that every statement made BY the Royal
Baking Powder Company. both as TO the
purity OF It's own and the adultera,lon Of
other baking powders of the market, was
fully authorized by the most competent
chemical and medical authorities Of the
country.
In this contest two facts have been pretty
conclusi,ely settled in the minds Of ID.
public-the first, that the Royal Company
has found the means. and uses them, to
make a chemically pure article Of food, and
the otner that the average baking powder,
no matter how strongly endorsed by Com
mercial' chemists. is an exceedingly doubtful
preparation.
Pure baking powders are one Of the chief
aids to the cook in preparing perfect and
wholesome food. The recent controversy
in the press has left it no longer a question
with those who desire purity and whole
someness Of food what baking powder they
shall use.

Gus accomplishment for 700 or 500 miles.
He followed the Tennah river until il emp
tied into the Takon, the great river Of the
North, to its mouth, distance Of about 400
or 500 miles more. Upon the completion
Of his great journey, Lieutenant Allen re-
paired to Port Michel on Behring's Strait
and returned on the steamer Corwin.
The exploration Of the Tennah and Takon
rivers has been the ambition Of explorers
long before Alaska came into the possession
Of the United States but the Russians failed
each time it was attempted. Since then sew
eral explorations by American officers have
ended in failure, until among the army Off
GERS on the Pacific coast the feat came to be
