An ambitious young commercial

the middle Hudson became acquain-

well-knewn seminary, whose father

Washington county towns, and is re-

A hair tickling the throl. will

large accumulation of the products
of disease remain. We heard Brown
Sequard KAY ia a lecture. Coughing
is a natural reflex action. wholly un-
intelligent. Not much i needed

When il cannot dc any good it ought

and payiog it out slowly. Useless
cough irritates throat a,td lungs,
and can OF itself produce or perpet-
uate sore throat. In church it Is
often epidemic. An English ex-
change says "Do not cough the
preacher down." is the much needed
advice given in the Sword and Trow-
ell. If people have bad colds they
had better nurse them at home, or
at least restrain themselves from
coughing, when attending public
worship, as much as possible. Even
Mr.. Spurgeon. we are told, some
times feels that he is nearly barked
down by the thousands who respond
to his appeals of love by peals of
coughing. The late Lord Ellenbor-
ough one remarked in court, some
slight Interruptions one might toler-
ate, but there seems to be an indus

cougher it is like a medicine, OF
which the wise mans rule is to take
as little as possible.

Once in . while let your husbond

Try and forget yourself as to your

if he is a wise man and if he il
not, try and make him your com

Heavy and sour bread or biscuit
have a vast influence through the di-
gestive organs upon he measure of
health we enjoy. How important
to our present happiness and future
usefulness the blessing Of good
health and a good constitution are,
we can only realize when We have
lost them, and when it is too late to
repair the damage. And yet, not
| withstanding these facts, thousands
of persons in Jul own city daily
lieopardize not only their health, but
their lives, and the healths and lives
of others, by using articles IN the
preparation of their food the purity
and healthfulness OF which they
know nothing. Perhaps a few cents
may have been saved. or it may
have been more convenient to obtain
the articles used, and the house
keeper takes the responsibility, and
possibly will never know the mis-
chief that has been wrought. Pater
familias may have spells of head
ache, Johnny may lose his appetite,
Susie may look pale if so, the true
cause is rarely suspected. The
weather, the lack of outdoor air, or
some other cause is given, and the
unwholesome, poisonous system OF
adulterated food goes on. Next TO
the flour, which should be made OF
good, sound wheat, and not ground
too fine, the yeast, or baking powder
which furnishes the rising properties
is of the greatest Importance, and OF
the two we prefer baking powder,
and always use the Royal, as we
thereby retain the original proper
ties OF the wheat, no fermentation
taking place. The action OF the
Royal Baking Powder upon the
dough is simply to swell it and form
little cells through every part. These
cells are filled with carbonic acid
gas, which passes off during the pro-
cess of baking.
The Royal is made from pure
grape acid, and it is the action of
this acid upon highly car5onizsd
bicarbonate OF soda that generates
the gas alluded TO; and these ingre-
dients are so pure and SO perfectly
fitted, tested and adapted to each
other, that the action is mild and
permanent. and is continued during
the whole time of baking, and no
residue Of poisonous ingredi ents re-
mains to undermine the health, no
heavy biscuits, no sour bread, but if
directions are followed, every article
prepared with the Royal Baking
Powder will be found sweet and
wholesome.

Railroads and Farmers

In Morrison's Cove, in Blair

mortgaged them, will want TO sell

Manitou Letter In the Inter.Ocean.

Mantou Letter In the Inter-Ocean.
81 would like so much to touch a cloud
with my paraSolm She was young and
strong. and for the first time in her life of
sixteen years was in the mountains. She
stood on the long, wide veranda of the hO-
tel at Manitou and looked up at the white
smoky clouds curling about the lower noun
tain peaks, with the eager, puzzled, Ques-
tiOning eyes of young impulsive girl To
the left and in front of her the swelling. al
most precipitOus slopes were bright in the
sunlight. To her right the low clouds
were boiling down the mountain
glen, shutting out the view OF
Cameron's cone and sailing along at a level
that took them Squarely against the lower
cone of Hiawatha mountain. Around this
they moved like a sailing vessel feeling its
way along dangerous coast Then they
fiOated off with the wind into the spaceSbe-
tween the intervening peaks and touched
even the top of the high hills in front of
the hotel. 1t seemed as though she could
in short walk reach point where she
could, in fact, touch the clouds with her
paraSol.
The score of people sitting on the broad
porch of the hotel watched the Young
girl as she climbed straight up the
hill in 'front.' and watched her as
she took the mountain trail that led her
through the light white clouds sailing along
probably l. 800 feet above them. for the
people at the hotel were at an elevation
some two or three hundred feet higher than
the summit of Mount Washington, and the
incline toward elevations seven, eight and
nine thousand feet began not a hundred
yards away. With their glasses they could
see the girl as she stood half-enfOlded in the
whitish yapOr; then, after another interval,
they could see her beyond, as she half
emerged above the line of those floating
clouds. So clear was the atmosphere that
the cheers of the young men across the
glen at an elevation somewhat lower than
the one reached by the girl could be heard
by her and those in the hotel
