II You Want The Best

A LTHOUGH you may have had good luck
n with but few failures in making cake and
biscuit in the o1d-fashioned way with soda and
sour milk, or soda and cream of tartar, you
will have better luck and following directions)
mo failures with the Royal Baking Powder.
The truth of this must be evident when you
remember that in the leading hotels and res
taurants and in the homes of our city cousins,
where the latest and best methods are invari-
ably employed and where the most beautiful
and dainty food is always set out for the guests,
the Royal Baking Powder is exclusively used
for all quickly risen food.
Royal Baking Powder never disappoints;
never makes sour, soggy or husky food; never
spoils good materials; never leaves Jumps Of
alkali in the biscuit or cake; while all these
things do happen with the best of cooks who
cling to the old fashioned methods, or who use
other Baking Powders.
If you want the best food, Royal Baking
Powder is indispensable.

HOW NED UNLoADED THE sLEDs.


One day last winter, when the snow
was hard, the boys in our part of the
town had fine time coasting down
long hill. For change they decided
to capture Ned and make him draw
them through the streets.
Ned was an old donkey owned by
no one. He lived by picking up what
stray bits he could find on the streets,
and sheltered himself in an old shed.
After some hunting they found him
taking his lunch from an ash barrel.
They Let him eat what he wanted so
that he might be as good-natured as
possible. A boy ran home and brought
some pieces of old rope. Then they
made rough kind Of harness.
Ned was kind enough to stand still
while they harnessed him. Then they
fastened their sleds together, with Joe
Browns in front, for he was to
drive.
Joe took up his cord reins, and gave
the word to Ned to ssget up" The
donkey only turned and looked back
at the dozen or more sleds to which he
was tied. l think he decided that the
load was too much for him. Joe used
a switch on him, but he hung his
head and stood quite still. After
waiting some time, the boys grew
tired and began to unite their sleds.
Ned looked back aud then made a
sudden start. He trotted down the
road at such rate that the boys had
quite chase to get on.
Ned found 1t easier than he expect
ed, or else he wanted to make up lost
time, for he drew them up one street
and down another for half hour.
Then lie began to slacken his pace, but
Joo urged him on with his switch.
Poor Ned thought there was to be nc
end to his task. Al idea seemed to
strike him suddenly, for he rushed
down the street at great rate.
On one side of this street was
deep ditch. When Ned came to it he
leaped across it, dragging the sleds at
at angle in such way that they all
tipped over, leaving the boys in the
ditch.
Ned then started on with the empty
sleds, making straight for his old
shed. The boys found him there. eat
ing wisp of straw. They took his
harness off and hung it up in the shed.
But that was the first and last time
they used it, for Ned would never let
them put it on again. To this day, If
anyone goes near him with piece Of
rope, he will take 70 his heela. four
