NO Impurities in
Royal Baking Powder.

1t is the only baking powder yet found by chemical
analysis to be free from ali impurities and absolutely
pure. This perfect purity results from the exclusive
use Of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared
by patent processes which totally remove all the tar
trate of lime. The cost of this chemically pure cream
of tartar is much greater than any other, and it is
used in no baking powder except the "Royal."
Dr.. Edward G. Love, formerly analytical chemist for the
u Government, who made the analyses for the New York
State Board OF Health in their investigation of baking pow.
ders, says of the purity and whoesomeness Of the ROYAL:

GermAnys Emperor May Invite MEDICAL EX-
perts to xamine His Mental Condition.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
BERLIN. Dec. 1.-The Kaiser. it is ru-
mored. has seriously spoken of submitting
himself TO q medical examination as to his
sanity. In order to offer o conclusive refuta-
tion TO the critics in France and England
who have been throwing out hints reflect
ing upon it. Should the Kaiser conclude to
take the step. leading experts would be
invited from England. and. perhaps, from
Italy. Austria and Sweden. who would
make n thorough examination and n CON-
plete report upon the cerebral condition of
the ilIustrious patient. Whatever may be
the foundation for the runner, It Is certain
that the Kaiser's mental condition is a sub
jcct of general discussion. OF rather insin-
uation, and it is believed that the current
gossip cannot have failed, IN some form, to
reach the kaiser's ears.

Jesuit Priest Rebuked.

PARIS, Dec. MANY of the French news
papers have published editorials urging
the government to demand of the Vatican
the deposition of the Archbishop of AK,
both on account of the nature of his letter
to NJ. Fallieres and for his course of action
and u%tterances since he was tried. convicted
and fined for sending the letter.
A dispatch from Bayonne. in the Depart
ment Of Basses-Pyrenees. states that
quite q sensation was caused in the
cathedral thore by the language
used by q Jesuit father. who was
preaching. and by the rebuke admin
istered To him by the Bishop of B~ayonne.
IL appears that during the priests remarks
he took occasion To refer to the conduct of
the Archbishop of AK, which led to his
trial and condemnation, and declared that
the Pope approved of the Archbishop's
conduct where he came into conflict with
the government. At this point the Bishop
of BayOnne. who was seated upon his
throne at the altar, arose and publicly re-
buked the jesuit for his utterances. The
Bishop said that he himself knew that the
Pope had ordered the clergy to abstain
from political discussions.

ROME. Dec. 1.-The Ministry's announce
ment of q surplus, provided Parliament
votes the taxes. has been received in q
way tho Ministry did not anticipate. There
is a general clamor. both in Parliament and
out. to get rid of the surplus by removing
one or other of the more odious forms of
taxation, with which the Italians of every
class are ground down. The most odious
in popular estimation is the tax on profits,
which eats mp intended dividends. and dis
courages commercial enterprise. The Min
istry Is not prepared to consent to any new

minish the income. and 10 said to regret

Then be prepared an elaborate dinner
for his materializsd spouse. The cats
looked on in astonlshment az the LAVISH
display of meats and other edibles. 1t
was al unusual sight to see square"
meal on the mlser's table. The old
man seated himself in q chair at the
head OF the table and gazed upon the
portrait which had been placed III POSI-
ton near 10 where the wife had sat in
her clairyoyant lifetime. The steaming
meats grew cold and darkness settled.
The old man sat still and motionless, the
while grooming u low, soft song. The
song ceased and the old mans head
fell forward in sleep. In the stiffness u

upon the table. His eyes beheld the
goodly spread and he fell upon it with
q vengeance. Then from under the

and back yard there filed procession
of other cats. In few minutes the
table was denuded of everything. The
