DID NOT WANT FRECKLEs.
The Reasons Given by a Poor Girl
for Leaving a Situation.

H.
A handsome young woman, who is
we'll known for her philanthropy, and
vino devotes a great deal of her time to
making light the burden of poverty
which other folks bear, recently found
a family worthy of her assistance. SAYS
the New York Sun. 1t consisted of
a mother and several children. the ED
est girl of twenty years, wretchedly
dressed. The young woman cast about
and finally secured a position in
wholesale candy store for the girl.
The salary was far. the hours were
not long. and all the girl had to do was
to pack candy. She accepted the stu
alton gladly, and the young woman left
the family feeling that she had placed
the girl in a position to earn enough
money 10 support them.
About two weeks later she called at
the tenement where the family lived
and was surprised TO find the girl at
home.
why, what's the matter?" she asked.
''are you not working to-day?''
No, ma'am," was the reply: Pm
not working at all"
when did you leave your place9'
Last week"
What was the matter? Didn't they
pay you enough money?''
ION, yes, ma'am; the wages was all
right. 1t wasn't that
Was the work too heavy for you?''
mo, ma am; me work was light
enough
The young woman began to feel very
uneasy. She dreaded what might fol
low. But she faced the situation
bravelv. and asked:
falVara Won not
"Oh, yes, ma'am; l was treated all
right. but you see, ma am. they put me
to work in an alcOve, near a sunny win
dow, and the sun came in nearly all
day, and was afraid I'd get freckIed.

THAT liquor is eight years DID," said
a distinguished statesman who unites to
many other accomplishments and talents

of whisky. As he said 1.-THE held the.
glass up to the light and glanced with
the appreciatiYe eye OF a c0nnoisseur at
the rich amber color OF the liquor.
Now that may not seem DID," he con-
tinued, but l have it on the authority
of the greatest expert in this country
that whisky never improves after reach

people talk of twelve-year-old-whis

ty-year-old whisky with an enthusiast SIN

The Best Things
In Cookery

Are always made with the ROYAL BAK-
ING POWDER. It in1parts that peculiar
llghtness, sweetness and flavor noticed
in the finest rolls, biscuit, cake, etc.,
and which the most expert pastry cooks
declare is unobtainable by the use of
any other raising agent.
The ROYAL BAKING POWDER, besides
rendering the food more palatable and
wholesome, is, because of its higher
leavening power, the most economical.
The ROYAL makes more and better
food than any other baking powder
because it is the purest.
