RoyaLBa king Powder
~ Is Absolutely Pure

WHlLE there are SO many alum baking pow
w ders in the market, the use of which all
physicians decide render the food unwholesome
and liable to produce dyspepsia and other
ailments, housekeepers should exercise the ut
most care to prevent any powder but the Royal
from being brought into their Kitchens.
In the use of Royal there is an absolute
certainty of pure and wholesome food.
The official State Chemists report: The
Royal Baking Powder does not contain am.
monia, alum, lime, nor any injurious ingre.
dicnts. 1t is absolutely pure and wholesome.
The Government reports show 1all other
baking powders to contain impurities.
In the use of any baking powder but Royal
there is uncertainty if not actual danger.
1t is unwise to take chances in matters of

room One night when too much
asleep to arouse herself she was yet
conscious of something lying on her
chest. but supposing it was only her
cat she did not bestir and arouse her
self. but fell off again into deep
slumber.
In the morning she saw puss asleep
on a chair where she had settled her
self the previous night. and a puff
adder was in her bed. Happily these
great deadly serpents are not agrees

nanlents have been left off SO long
that scores Of wonlen who used to
wear them could hardly do so now
without inconvenicnce;n d pain. But
the pretty toys or gem, have not been
thrown away or wasted. Thousands
have been worked up into other and
more fashionable ornaments. Many
very handsome brooches have been
made out of earrings which havco ont
lived the fashion. and there has been
quite Il large amount of ingenuity

More than one pair has been made

others have been fitted with pins and
used by their fair owners as hat or

matters doubt whether earrings as
such will ever become popular again,
