uscript has been discovered. 1t bears
the title, Manual du Parfait

sketch OF the qualifications of the
man who would become q successful
murderer. Above all, he should be
neither too young nor too old, neither
uneducated nor too learned; but one
branch OF knowledge which he should
be careful to avoid is 'that of liter
allure. But, unless q man feels that
numbering is his vocation, all other
qualifications avail nothing. Ii he is
drawn toward the profession by an ir-
resistible attraction, and if he has
not from his tenderest age felt the
desire to annihilate his fellow beings,
let him desist from meddling with
numbering. q

The Secret of Fine Pastry

Is wholly in using DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder.
The only pure Cream Tarter Powder sold on the market
Other brands contain either ammonia, alum or some other
adulterant. Ammonia or alum powders dry out, make the
dough too porous, leaving a bitter taste, etc.
No agency has assisted so much. toward perfection in
cookery as Prices Cream Baking Powder. Its ingredients
are simple and so blended as to exist in exact chemical pro
portions, so after use there is never any excess of either left in
the food. Hence there can be no impurities whatever left in
the finished food. No bitter taste, no faint of ammonia, but
food raised with DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder partakes
