Health in the Bread.

Perfect food is that which, while prepared in the most
appezng FORM is also the most wholesome and nutritious
1t should never be necessary sacrifice the whoesomeness
of an article in order to make it paatabe nor as IS
too often the case should we be compelled take
bread cake bere of its most appetizng qualities in
order to avoid injury to our digestive organs.
The Royal Baking Powder possesses peculiar quality,
not possessed by any other leavening agent that applies
directly to this subject 1t provides bread biscuit cake
mufins rolls which may be eaten when hot without
inconvenience by persons of the most delicate digestive
organs With persons is necessary that bread raised
with yeast should lose it's freshness become stale before
it can be eaten with safety The same distressing results
follow from eating biscuit cake, pastry etc. raised by the
cheap inferior baking powders that contain lime aum
other aduerants. The hot roll and muffin and the deli
cous hot grdde cakes raised by Royal Baking Powder
wholesome and dgestible SOUP meat or any
other food
Another greatly superior quality possessed by the
Royal Baking Powder that by which the preservation Of
important elements Of the -four is effected in raising the
bread by the mechanical operation of the gas without fer
mentation Yeast and all baking powders that produce the
eavenng gas by fermentation, is well known destroy
portion of the nutrtve elements of the -four and parcu
ary those which the most heathfu and the greatest
aids to perfect assimilation of the food The Royal
Baking Powder while perfectly leavening, retains without
change impairment all those elements which in.
tended by nature when combined in our bread to make it
literally the " staff of life"
No leavening agent baking POWDER except the Royal

This is regarded as test case, estab-
fishing the precedent that all leased lands
held under lease for three years or more
are subject to taxation as the property OF
the lessees.
This ruling is in accord with the in
structions heretofore given by the attor-
ney-general in the case of the George
town Water company. His opinion went
to the point that, so long as the water
works was owned and controlled by the
city, the property was exempt from tax
alton, but that when it was leased for a
term of twenty-five years, it came under
the provisions of article 1851, and was
subject to taxation.

tain lands held under ten years lease

the applicant for the writ that article
1851 of the revised statutes under which
the assessment was made is unccnstitu

Judge E. B. Turner, on Saturday last, and

More Free Passes.

We learn that J. w. Hobart, the
General Manager of the Central Yer
mont Railroad, has recently favored this
county with visit to consult with the
faithful in these parts, and to look af-
ter the mending of Gov. Smiths polit-
ical fences. AS the first result a large
number of additional Free Passes have
been distributed, and among the new
beneficiaries are quite sprinkling of
Democrats. Perhaps the Reformer can
give us full list of their names,
though we have no positive evidence
that the Reformer office was compli
mented by a call from the great official.
The Reformer used to know all about
these rascally free passes and the cor
ruption that followed in their wake,
but lately it is mum as an oyster. The
question is, what is Gov. Smiths right
bower giving out free passes by the
score Just now for, and why is he tick
ling up the democrats especially? Is il
to prevail upon them to carry out the
little trade between Smith and Hiram
Atkins to unite Smith Republicans and
marketable democrats against Ed
munds? 1t looks that way certainly
Anyway, there is no mistake about the
giving out of lot of new passes; ant
no doubt the same thing is being done
all over the State.

he was in the field. For a short squirt.

A Question Answered.

Editor Sitter:-To settle small
bet, will you please state when it was
that J. L: Martin (you,' 'Lo") aban-
doncd his copperheadism and joined the
Republican party, and oblige. Quiz.
Winhall, May u, 1886.
Now "Quiz" ought to know that the
Reformer says this gentleman is "pri-
vate citizen and it is abuse to talk
about him. And we begin to think it is
hardly the right thing to kick the polit-
ical dead, nevertheless. we viii venture
to answer our friend. 1t was in the
Fall of 1872, at Jamaica, we think,
more than seven years after the close
of the war, and after he had voted the
democratic ticket half dozen times, or
so. Then, all of sudden, the convic-
ton seized hold of him that there are
solid chunks of worldly wisdom in
Hooker's well known political creed
that: "a man is a id fool to be re-
publican in New York city Or demo.
crat in Vermont" Whereupon the
conversion of Saul of Tarsus was not
more instantaneous than his. lIt
promptly rated over from the unpopu
lar faith of his fathers, and has evel
since been a rampant republican, like ;
democratic tariff, "for revenue only,
and, considering the small amount 0.
capital he put in, he has certainly dom
good business on it. The only tim
his old copperhead intincts have got tn
better of him was when he tried to sup
press live republican newspaper
Since his conversion, his favorite hymn
has been Dorr Bradley's poetic advic
to his dog Jowler, lately printed i
some of the papers, the last stanza o
which, with a slight variation, read
thusly:
"Jowler, consort with demagogues,
Keep out of the minority;
Take care to smell Of other dogs,
And vote with the majority"

tornado Friday night a
slowly. a fair estimate of the number
killed places it at so, while not less than
800 persons were more or less injured,
some of them fatally and many severe
ly. The tornado appears to have origi-
mated near Anderson, Ind, and swept
through seven counties in Ohio, termi-
mating in the central part of Seneca
county, about 10 miles from the start
ing point. Its path varied in width from
a quarter of a mile to mile. Like
most tornadoes, it skipped bits of coun-
try here and there, sometime ploughing
along the surface for four or five miles,
then ascending to come down again
further on. 1t is impossible to give
any accurate figures regarding loss of
property. Much of the damage con-
sists in the destruction of crops and
timber, and the washing away of arabic
land. Seneca county reports the loss to
buildings and live stock at 100000;
Hardin county, $4,000; Wyandotte,
5000, 900, and Mercer, &l50,O00.
