water accurately tested. He lives
by rule, and the rule is inHexible. His
time is scrupulously divided SO much
allotted to reading, so much to writ
ing, SO much to exercise, so much to
recreation. His meals are studies of
prudence and digestion.
One might think that 1t would be a
serious infection to keep up existence
by such precise, unvarying methods.
But the little doctor enjoys them,
having settled firmly into these habits
years ago. Philosophical as he is
about death, hehas an eager curiosity
to see how long he can live by follow
ing the laws he has vigorously pre-
scribed for himself. He thinks some
times that he may attain 100, which
he would dearly like, if he could re-
tain, as he has retained thus far, the
full possession at all his faculties. No
serious man of broad veiw can regard
the interest DR.. Holmes takes in
health as at all excessive, especially
as it not only concerns the keeping Of
a man with us of whom literary Anne
RIGA is proud, but is a scientific de-
monstration Of the value Of systema-
tic hygiene applied to the preservation
of body and mind at any advanced
age.-Journal of Health.

LOOK ON THIS.

The ancient maxim that every ques-
ton has two sides is, in the words of
st. Paul. worthy of all acceptation
Take the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany for exam pie: It's statements to
the public are made in a bald, one
sided way. The Company is either
guilty Of duplicity in it's methods or it
takes the public to be ignorant.
1t forgets, or it doesn't care, that
there is an opposite to the claims it sets
up.
It has been caught in it's acts, and un-
masked so often that one would SUD-
pose it would try some new tactics. On
the contrary, it continues the dark
lantern policy.
The Ohio Dairy and Food Commits
sioner corrected the Royal for nisusing
his annual report This was done in
the newspapers
The same Company was taken to
task by the New York State Board of
Health for it's endeavor to make it ap-
pear that the Board had endorsed the
Royal Baking Powder.
The same Company quoted authori-
ties, in it's behalf, and called them Gov
eminent Chemists. There is no such
office known to any bureau in Wash
ington, or its departments throughout
the country, as Government Chemist.
Here is another blunder of which the
Royal is guilty, and according to Tai
leyrand, b1under is as bad as a crime.
In one of it's claims on the public the
Royal uses the following words:
(coPY OF ROYAL ADJ -
CANNOT BE EXCELLED. ~.-.-E.
A purer stronger baking powder than the Ro, u,
it is impossible to make. It is absolutely pure and
heathful and composed of the best ingredients and
of the highest strength and character .-.. s.. -
To this statement the Royal adds, as
authority, these names:
DR.. DAVIDSON,
DR.. FISKE,
Or. MeQUEsTEN,
DR.. LIE TOURNEUX,
San Francisco Board Of Health.
That is one side of the case. It is the
Royal Baking Powder Company S side.
The other side Of the case appears op
posite. It is a complet tie negative. It
shows again the deception practiced
by the Royal Baking Powder Company.
Are such methods employed by con
Germs that are honest?
The above is respectfully
thinking public.

Some years since David Baker, distin-

That when he leaves this world OF pain
He'll wing his way 10 that brighter shore
And md the road 10 heaven again.
