Kitchen Economy.

Some recent reports by State Chem
lists and Boards of Health give valu-
able information on this subject Not
long ago Mr.. Thorn, state Dairy and
Food Commissioner Of Wisconsin,
published the names of large num-
Der of baking powers which the State
Chemist, Prof. Short, had analysed,
showing their ingredients and
strength. The result of the test show
ed the Royal of the purest and high
est strength, which means that it
makes the most economical food.
Prof Floyd Davis, Chemist to the
State Board of Health of Iowa. after
giving the names and relative strength
and composition of the different pow
ders, SAYS: 1.-The result shows that
the Royal has the highest leavening
power of any powder examined, and
is composed OF pure and wholesome
ingredients, well mixed, and of a
character perfectly proper for use. No
other powder gave results so satisfae-
tory.n
Prof. C.. W. Drew, Chemist to the
Minnesota State Food and Dairy Com
mission, says that the Royal, being Of
greater strength than any other, and
possessing better keeping qualities, it
is the natural conclusion that il is the
best baking powder made.
These are very great compliments
for the Royal Baking Powder, for the
authorities are the highest In their re-
respective States and unimpeachable-

The Different LondoDs.

The size of London is somewhat in
definite, but may be said to cover about
square mile. i he postal district covers
an area of $50 square miles. The police
district extends still farther, covering
an area of GS7 square miles. On the
other hand, the parliamentary London
is much narrower. 1t consists of 10 Dor
oughs. CT which the city of London, al

Costly Meals,

The costliest meal ever served, as far
as history shows, was supper given by
Aelin Verus. one of the most lavish of
the latter day Roman aristocrats. The
supper was only intended for dozen
persons, yet its cost was 5000 sestertia,
which would amount to e4S, 900 in Eng
lish money, or nearly quarter of a mil
lion dollars.
The celebrated feast given by Vitel-
Illus, a Roman emperor of those degen-
crate days, to his brother Lucius cost a
fraction over 100000. Luetonius says
that this banquet consisted of 1000 diff
ferent dishes of fish and 1000 different
fowls, besides other courses in proper
ton. Nitellius, fortunately for the
world, did not reign very long; other
wise the game preserves of Libya, Spain
and Britain would have been exhausted.
1t may not be out of place to mention
here that it is recorded as curious point
of history that single dish on the table
of the Emperor Heliogabulus was worth

Plaster Casts.

Ny advice to those who contemplate
having plaster cast taken of their
heads and faces is don't. Two friends
of mine, amateur sculptors, persuaded
me to let them take cast of my face,
SO as to reproduce and immortalize my
features. had no idea what the proc
ess was, and though l objected to it on
general grounds did not imagine that
any torture was connected with it.
Judge of my horror, then, when 1
found that my nostrils had to be stuffed
with cotton wool and that nasty, sticky
substance was pressed tightly all over
my face so as to secure an impression
of my features. Nothing so utterly un-
comfortable could be imagined, and the
desire to scratch portions of the face
specially irritating was almost irresist-
IDLE. But the greatest agony was to
come. The young men had forgotten
in their hurry some precautions which
it Is usual to take in order to make it
easy to break the cast in the center and
take it off in two pieces.
Hence it failed to respond to their
efforts to make it split, and ! had to
wait until they could break it off in
sections. The heat in the interval was
oppressive in the extreme, and as they
pulled off large pieces of flesh and
enough hair to make a small wig my
sutferings can easily be imagined. If
| ever obtain fame, which l do not an
ticipate, my features will have to be
immortalized in some way other than
by means of bust. st. Louis Globe

An agent from the city was trying to

There was a small storage battery con-

the battery should be kept in operation
by means of a small windmill placed
on the roof of the house. The agent had

So he fixed up wind pump, but that

and makes kind of swivel arrange

Tells How 1t Originated.

AcAAs nv" AZ
The register of the Girard House re-
Gently recorded the arrival in the city of
Thomas Godbepraised of Barrow-in-Fur-
ness, England Being approached upon
the subject of the oddity of his surname,
Mr.. Godbepraised said:
Eyes, [ suppose the name does sound
very odd to Americans, although such
names are not altogether unusual in
England and especially in Lancashire,
which was a stronghold of the Round
heads or Furitans in CromwelPs time.
My home is in Barrow-in- Furness, which
is in Lancashire. My ancestors prior to
Cromwell's time We're all royalists. The
family name was Elliot. A younger son
renowned the religious faith and politi-
cal opinions of his forefathers and be-
came Puritan. AS was usual in such
cases he abjured his carnal name of
Charles Elliot and took the inspired one
of Ezekiel Godbepraised
''There is quite romance connected
with this ancestor of mine. He fell in
love with the only daughter of Colonel
Fielding in the Cavaliers army, and not
being able to obtain her fathers consent
to their marriage Ezekiel abducted her
dreary house that stood near the little
town of Fornby, where a son was born.
After battle little to the south of the
River Mersey between the Cavaliers and
Roundheads her brothers discovered her
and carried her off to old Furness abbey.
In the hurry the child was left behind,
but as result of the mothers pleading
one of the brothers returned to Formby
to get it.
"In the meantime Ezekiel had discov
cred his loss and removed the child.
Then the followed the brother back to
Furness abbey, but arrived too late. The
brother and sister had set sail from Bar
row beach for the isle of Man. A storm
came up, and Ezekiel arrived just in time
to see the boat founder. He returned to
his child more bitter against the royalists
than ever and brought the child up with
the same sentiments.
Sat the close of the war Ezekiel adopt
ed the trade of a weaver and settled in
Barrow-in-F urness. Thus the name was
perpetuated. the stern commands Of the
father forbidding the son to throw off the
fanatical nickname when the heat of Pu-
ritanical zeal had given away."-Phila-

THE tories, short-sighted as they always
have been as political party, believe that
the retirement of Mr. Gladstone means the
shelving" of the home rule bill. They
will soon realize their error, however. So
long the Irish people are true to them
selves, no English ministry that refuses
them the justice they demand can hold
power for a single session of parliament,
no matter under what banner they may
range themselves. In fact, as the late
Charles Stewart Parnell once declared, the
Irish psople, through their chosen repre-
sentstives, have it in their power to para
lyze all the English legislation until the
lust claims of ireland to self-government
shall have been recognized. To maintain
that position all that is needed is that the
Irish representatives shall stand honestly
together for the national cause; and that
they purpose to do SO we have the assur-
auce in the statement which was given out
by the executive committee of the Irish
party. the moment the rumors of Mr. Glad
stones retirement from Office began to
take defirite shape, IN which they stated
that the resignation of the premier can in
no way affect the action of the party.

The easy and comfortable attitudes as
sumed by most men riding in street cars
have frequently been source of irrita-
ton to women, and one feminine pas
senger had the courage to publicly con-
denim the practice. A Sixteenth street
car was scudding up town with many
masculine passengers and one woman,
who sat in an upper corner and whose
physiognomv stamped her as a school
ma'am.
Another woman entered the car at
Poplar street, and finding no vacant seat
was proceeding to grasp strap when
the voice of the schoolma'am piped out,
IF these men would put their legs to-
gether, there would be plenty of room-"
A dead silence was followed by stealthy
shifting Of neither limbs until sufficient
red cushion was visible to accommodate

classmate, who was valedictorian at both

of wealth and position. Both began
practice in New Orleans at the same
time, but the valedictorian became
known as a clubman with a law Office
that he seldom visited. while White was
recognized as lawyer of deep reading,
