Saved by His wife,s wit.

lar Episcopal clergyman, of Chicago,
made bad break the other day. but
was helped out by the quick wit Of his
wife. On the day in question he saw q
lady about to call whom he was anxious
not to meet. So he said to his wife:
sNow I'm off, my dear. I'll run up
stairs and escape till she goes away"
After about an hour he quietly tiptoed
to the stair landing and listened. AL
was quiet below. Reassured he began
to descend, and while doing so he
thoughtlessly but emphatically called
out over the bannister:
well, my dear, has that old bore gone
at last?'
The next instant voice from below
caused the cold perspiration to bedew
his ministerial brow and rooted him to
the spot. There came a response which
sounded inexpressibly sweet to him just
then. It was the voice Of his wife, who,
with true womanly tact, replied, "Yes,
darling, she went away over an houi
ago, but here is our good friend, Mrs
Blank, whom | am sure you want tf

The owners Of what are called the
Holman Caldwell patents are having
fitted up in Milwaukee locomotive to
be equipped with new style Of running
gear, which its owners think will accom-
plish great things in railroading. The
new running gear consists Of truck
with ten wheels, three of which on each
side rest upon the rails, and are sur
mounted by two others, the tires OF
which have frictional contact with the
tires of the wheels below. Then, sur
mounting these two wheels is the drive
wheel of the locomotive, the wheel ar
rangement on each side being that of a
pyramid, with the drive wheel on top.
AS the lower sets Of wheels are OF
much smaller diameter than the drive
wheels which transmit motion to them
it is claimed that the ordinary speed OF
q locomotive can be doubled by the use
of this gearing. A stock company has
been formed to exploit this invention,
and as soon as possible trial trip is Ia
be made. It is proposed to first run the
engine now being equipped from Mime
apolis to Boston. Representatives of the
Holman Caldwell company have been in
Milwaukee for several days looking after
the construction of the trial truck and
exhibiting models of the invention tc

FOR PURE FOOD.

The Board OF Health can engage In no
more laudable occupation than the ex-
animation OF our food supply and the
instruction OF the public as to those ar
ticles it finds to be pure and wholesome,
and which, therefore, consumers should
use.
There are quantities Of baking pow
ders in the market to use which is GER
tain detriment to the health Of the con-
sumer. They are made from alum, or
improperly compounded from other

with reference TO their own and other
brands, claiming the most improbable
| Endorsements for theirs and defaming

ton from this high authority, therefore,
is most opportune.

Do You Wish

1t is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder is
the purest and strongest Of all the baking powders
The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet

That baking powder which is both purest and
strongest makes the most digestibe and wholesome
food.
Why should not every housekeeper avail herself
Of the baking powder which will give her the best
food with the least trouble?
Avoid all baking powders sold with gift
Or prize, or at lower price than the Royal,
as they invariably contain alum, lime or sui
phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome

be had BY declining to accept any substitute for the
