A PURE BAKING POWDER.

A baking powder that can be de-
pended 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 reports, the
"Royap" seems to be the only one yet
found by chemical analysis to be
entirely without one or the other of
these substances,and absolutely pure.
This, it is shown, results from the ex-
elusive use by its manufacturers OF
cream Of tartar specially refined and
prepared by patent processes which
totally remove the tartrate of lime
and other impurities. The cost of
this chemically 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 baking
powders, and whose intimate knowl-
edge of the ingredients of all those
sold in this market enables him to
speak authoritatively, says of the
purify, wholesomeness, and superior
quality of the "Royal:"
81 find the Royal Baking Powder
composed of pure and wholesome in
gradients. It is a cream of tartar
powder, and does not contain either
alum or phosphates, or other in
furious substances"
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.

The Metropolitan.

We have heard such a universal
cry Of hard times during the last few
months, that when we hear of anyone
making money it strikes us with the
shock of cyclone. But few days
ago we heard such remark and
halted at once to investigate. To our
great surprise it was the Metropolitan
hotel that was reported as veritable
mint. We at once set about an inves-
tigation which convinced us the
rumor for once was a fact. The
proprietors, Messrs. Noting & Wood
ward, have had their Office rejuven-
ated, and the entire house thoroughly
overhauled. Their tables are loaded
with the best viands the market can
produce; aud their list of boarders is
increasing daily. The travelling men
are largely patronising this hotel, and
they are the best index to good
entertainment. We are glad to know
that somebody is making money.
In obedience to a call, the Women's
Auxiliary met in the parlors Of "The
Norris" on Monday, and closed up
their business in relation to the fair.
They, with large number of others
organ zed into a relief association, to
render assistance to the many
sufferers in this village and county
who need aid during this Indictment
winter weather. They have surplus
fund left, over from the Auxiliary
which will be used as a nucleus for the
present purpose. The officers OF the
present organization are as follows:
PRIEST. Mrs. Fl. S. Judson, '. ?. Mrs.
O. Camp, Sec. Mrs. Pcarce, Treas. Mrs.
S. Stewart. This is a vigorous corps
Of officers, and they will be backed by
active men. All clothing can be left
at e. J. Jones Office, and we hope
a liberal supply will be brought in.
An oyster supper will be given on
Friday evening at the Star restaurant,
price Of tickets, Is cents. The
proceeds are for the, benefit of Cecil
barrow, who is lying sick at a
hospital in Iowa City. He gets
medical attendance free, but is re-
quired to pay 81 per week for his
board, which he is unable to do; and
owing to the very hard times in Morris
his father and mother are rendered
unable to assist him. We appeal to
the benevolent to make this supper a
success, by buying one or more
tickets; and giving them to some one
who needs a good supper, if they
don't want to go themselves. This is
beginning charity at home, and is
practical christianity.
