and purposes, and 10 more perfectly unite
for the final overthrow Of the king OF
evils, =" the traffic in Intoxicating beverages.
We thank you for your cordial welcome.

cause for rejoicing. Thirteen years ago,
in the little tom Of Hillsboro, Ohio. the
temperance crusade had its beginning. 4

Mexico, this loved nation Is stirred as
never before on this vital question. The
cloud that began in Ohio no larger than a
mans hand, has OYcrsprcad tho entire
political armament and the thunders Of
public condemnation and the lightnings Of
popular sentiment, indicate that a storm
Is at hand. The recking, rum-ladcn at
m~osphere Of our political world is being
purified and the debauchery and degrade
ton that rave 80 long befouled onr social
life will ere long he washed away in the
food Of prohibition that is surging through
the land.
Tie cause Of God and humanity is ia a
gramdly hopeful condition to-day. Woman
has done her work; woman IL doing her
work, and as the result Of her Influence
| and untiring labors, the men Of our nation
lave become aroused, and are pushing tie
battle to the very gates Of the citadels Of

Haddock the other day she declined to

A MARVEL' OF PURITY
Royal a Perfect Baking POwder-Absolutely
Free from Lime.

The Royal Baking Powder is considered by all chemists
and food analysts to be a marvel of purity, strength, and
wholesomeness. Furthermore, it is now the only baking
powder before the public free from lime and absolutely pure,
This is due largely to the improved method by the use
of which it has been made possible to produce a perfectly
pure cream Of tartar, from which all the lime has been
eliminated.
This chemically pure cream of tartar is exclusively
employed il, the manufacture of the Royal Baking Powder
so that its absolute freedom from lime and Ill other
extraneous substances is g guaranteed,
Professor McMurtrie, late chemist in chief totho is.
Department of Agriculture, after analysing many samples of
cream of tartar of tho market, testified to the absolute
purity of that used in the Royal Baking Powder as follows;
e. have examined the cream of tartar manufactured by
tho New York Tartar Company and used by the Royal
Baking Powder Company in the manufacture of their bak'
ing powder, and find it to be perfectly pure, and free from
lime in any form,
Gail chemical tests to which have submitted it have
proved the Royal Baking Powder perfectly healthful, of
uniform, excellent quality, and free from any deleterious
substance. WIN. McMURTRIE, EN-, PhD,

pauions Of his ownSSe on Sixteenth street
when an Elm Grove train passed. Riley
was chasing another boy, who ran across
the track In front OF the motor, followed
by his pursuer. Just in the middle Of the
track Riley stumbled or slipped, and fell.
The motor was rig,t on him, and before
the engineer could stop II the hre.box
struck the boy. The lever was reversed
as promptly as possible, and Just in time.
Had the wheels made another revolution
the boy would have been crushed to death,
As II was his injuries did not seem TO be
serious, consisting only Of burn on the
back wherethe fire.box struck him and
the straining Of the muscles Of bis neck.
When the motor stopped his body was
bent double, his head being forced 10.
