The envy shown by other baking powder man
ufacturers of the great prestige Of the Royal
Baking Powder is not at all surprising
For thirty years the Royal has been the stand
ard for purity and strength in baking powders.
and has been placed at the head by every board
of official examiners whether State or National.
The Royal Baking Powder Company controls its
own cream of tartar factory and the processes for
making the only absolutely pure cream of tartar;
It sends its product to millions Of homes all over
the world, supplies the Army and Navy, the great
transatlantic steamers, the finest hotels and res
taurants. and is recommended by the best chefs
and authorities on cuisine in every land. Its
sale is larger than that Of all other cream Of
tartar baking powders combined; It has more
friends among housekeepers than any other
similar article.

In Polk county, Neb., are many wells
which exhibit very peculiar phenomena
Of intermittanCe, They vary from 100 to
$40 feet In depth, and all ebb and flow either
hregularIy or as regular as tides on an
ocean beach. The flow is accompanied by
a roaring sound like that of the sea, as
though distant wave were coming in, and
at the same time stilf current of air
PUSHES out at the mouth Of the well. The
ebb rs accompanied by a downward draft
OF mir, as might naturally he supposed.
The period Of ehb and flow does not seem
20 depoud upon the heat or cold or upon
the damuHe-s or dryucss Of the atmosphere.

believe thcm to be in some way connected
with the waters Of the Platte river, while

their suggestions, declare them to be in

The monkey house in Central park is the
favorite resort of that half million of chill
dren who live in and around New York
Here there are fifty monkeys In one big
cage there are dozen new monkeys not
yet thoroughly accustomed to ciyiliza-
ton Their cage has to be tidied,
and so when the keeper enters with
his broom the whole lot of them
squeal and scamper off to the oppo-
site side of the cage, and huddle there
am certain they are not really scared, but
only pretend. In this lot of monkeys, one
two foot monkey has become the dear
friend of a very small one, and so when
ever they scamper from one side of the
cage to the other the big one acts as a
horse for the little one,
All the monkeys are on intimate terms
with Mr.. Jacob, the keeper, and some are
never happy unless they get into his arms
or can hang about his neck. As the keeper
has to use his broom vigorously in sweep
ing the floor it is funny to see him carry
around necklace of live monkeys while
at his work.
That monkey house is scene of perpet-
ual motion. 1t can only be quiet when all
hands are asleep. You win see a monkey
perfectly still aud motionless, and you
will say: "That chap is dead tired at last. No
wonder! Now he is going to take a com
Portable nap" Before you have said that,
off is that very same monkey, swinging on
the rope and twice as active and energetic
as ever. 1t was only ono Of his tricks.
You cannot help laughing when Il mon
key looks at you, If you stare back at

you'll know me next time" If you face
him for while, it Will end by the mon
