A rnrn Rakins Romdrr.

The baking powder that can be depended upon to be free from lime and alum is a desideratum in these days of adulterated food. So far as can be judged from the official re- reports, the ,,Royal' seems to be the only one yet found by chemical an alysis to be entirely without one or the other of these substances and absolutely pure. This, it is shown, results from the exclusive use by its manufactures of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared by patent processes which totally re- move the tritate of lime and other impurities. The cost of this chem ically pure cream of tartar is much greater than any other, and it Is used in no baking powder except the Royal" the manufacturers of which control the patents under which it is refined.
 Dr. Edward G. Love, formerly analytical chemist for the U. s. Government, who made the analysis for the New York State Board of Health in their investigation of bak- ing powders, and whose intimate knowledge of the ingredients of all those sold in this market enables him to speak authoritatively, says of the purity, wholesomness and su- perior quality of the "Royal:'
 II find the Royal Baking Powder composed of pure and wholesome ingredients. It is cream of tartar powder, and does not contain either alum or phosphates, or other inju- rious substance"
 Prof. Loves tests, and the recent official tests by both the United States and Canadian Governments, show the Royal Baking Powder to be superior to all others in strength and leavening power. It is not only the most economical in use, but makes the purest, finest favored and most wholesome food.

Malay chief at Sirdang. 1t was about
three feet high, but the stretch of its
arms was over FIVE feet. a sad looking,
depressed creature it seemed as it moved
awkwardly about the floor, tripping it
self up with its own arms; but once
among the rafters of the roof it moved
with the agility Of spider. Of its 81

able TO give but few particulars.
But may at least observe that it l.
rather ludicrous to any one who has 8
smattering of the Malay tongue to set
him so frequently styled orang-utang
which signifies literally "a man in debt. ;

''utan' is forest" or jungle. But al

Mhere scallons Are Found.

Sixty years ago the presence of giant
Scallops was known in the vicinity of Cas-
tine, Ne. but 1t Is only within the last fif-
teen years that they have found a market.
Everybody ought TO learn that it is the
heart" (Which Is not the heart) of the
scallop which is eaten. This so called
heart" Is the strong abductor muscle OF
the mollusk. All the rest, or the mantle,
is thrown away.
In all muscular tissue there is q sweet
tasting substance. and probably in the
scallop this Is present in large quantity
The usual method OF taking the scallop Is
by dredging 1t Is believed that there are
undiscovered beds of these giant scallops
yet 20 be found of the coast OF Maine
There used 70 be entertained the idea
that since scallops were only found near
the old French settlements, they were due
TO accidental planting by the first colo
nists, but such is not the case. The Pecten
naturally belongs TO the whole North
American coast.-New York Times.

A Mystery EXPLAINED.


A gentleman of this city who has taken
some interest in mind reading, hypnotism,
telepathy and the like, entered his office
the other day, and just as he was sitting
down thought of a friend whom he wanted
very much to see on a matter Of business.
In less than a minute in walked the very
person
did you just arrive'' asked the gentle
man.
drove up 20 the door about half q min
ute ago" said the visitor
Must send it TO the Psycnical Research
society" said the gentleman, explaining
what had happened.
After his visitor went away he began
thinking it over Then he suddenly re
called something he had overlooked. On
passing his Office through another room he
had seen a gentleman reading book with
a peculiar binding 1t reminded him Of
another book in similar binding he had
been reading at a summer resort the week
before. This reminded him that he
thought of going back there for another
week of recreation and that reminded him
that his friend had been down there, too,
and was expecting TO 90 back with him.
Then he wondered how many similar myS
teries might be nationally explained if the
connection between ones thoughts could
only be re-establis hed.-Detroit Free Press

The Planet Jupiter.

A radiant star will adorn the sky fol
several months to come. 1t is Jupiter
the largest and grandest planet of ths
solar system.
He is now in opposition with the sun,
rising at sunset, reaching the meridian
at midnight and setting at sunrise, be.
ing visible through the whole night.
Jupiter in opposition, or opposite the
sun, as the word implies, is at his great
est distance from the sun and nearest
to the earth, which accounts for his
superb appearance.
This majestic planet is equal in vol
ums to 1900 worlds like ours, and casts
a shadow that extends 80, 900, 900 of miles
in space. He is called a planet, but is
more like sun, and probably gives out
some light and heat. The rapid changes
visible on his surface through the tele-
scope indicate the action Of mighty
forces. and a possible condition ap
preaching incandescence.
Countless ages must pass before the
planets fires grow low, and are succeed
ed by periods of development, perfec-
ton and decay, the three processes that
rule the material universe.
Observers, therefore, may watch the
progress of world making on this
stately member of the suns family, a.
the telescope reveals the varying belts,
the riffs, the bright spots, and especially
tho famous red spot, showing that fierce
forces are raging within and beneath the
cloud atmosphere that envelops the
planet.
Those who are familiar with the
planets story W take deeper interest
in watching the course of the bright stan
that reigns supreme, and that may be
recognized at a glance as, looming abo
the southeastern horizon like a young
moon, he makes his way toward the
zenith.-Youth' S Companion.

Much might be said in addition to all
this about the illustrated lecture. When
the interest in mere speaking declined
some fertile genius elaborated the old
magic lantern show and added the lecture
to it. From this idea sprung up brisk
business, and there were hundreds OF
speakers who embarked in it. The surviv-
al of the fittest, however, has left COM
paratiyely few who find it profitable, and
it is still true that the greatest audiences
are drawn by the individuals whom the
public desires to see in the flesh.
Burdette and Bill Nye are almost the
only men who remain on the platform as
purely humorous lecturers. Artemus
Ward, Mark Twain, Josh Billings, Miner
Griswold, Doesticks and John Phoenix ara
remembered as men who reaped rich har-
vest in this field. DAVID A. CURTIS.

The wisest Man contradiets Him

The Wisest Man COntradicts Himself
Napoleon was fool more than his just
proportion of time and he had a habit of
sticking to decisions made in his off hours
You may bear this in mind, that the wisest
man is he who most often and freely con-
tradicts himself To never veer in judg-
ment, and never go back on yourself, is
not mark of genius. | asked my boy the
other day what the phrase go back on
yourself meant, and his answer gives me
Just the illustration | need. He was pick
ing row of raspberries; his answer was;
81 have TO 90 back every few feet and fiud
berries | have missed When Phil tells
me am not picking clean, tell him to 90
back on himself"
That is a wise man is one who reviews
himself as often rs once a day, and then
perhaps again each week. II you have q
possible controversy, and have written a
letter, be sure not to send it for twenty
four hours, giving yourself time to recon
slider it. Perhaps good rule is to let all
letters lay by for a day, if possible You
may nave written one in your fool hour.
You will be surprised at least that you
could have said some things, or proposed
others.-St. Louis Globe Democrat
