Literary Notes.

Prof. James Sully, of University Col
lege, London, heads the list of contrib
utors to the September Popular Science
Monthly with the second of his Studies
of Childhood, dealing with The I'M
aginative Side of Play" He shows by
means of many incidents how strong
is the power of making believe that
enters SO largely into children's plays.
A considerable amount of space is
devoted by the Scientific American of
August 25 to a description OF the Gals
son foundation piers of the American
Surety Company's twenty-story build
ing in New York City. The descrip-
ton is revelation to those who have
never understood how solidity of
foundation is obtained for the sky
scrapers. The article is well-illustra-
ted.
In the September Midland Monthly
(Des Moines,) which comes laden with
good things, Director Sage, of the
Weather Service, answers the conuns

of portraits and many fine views enrich
the number. Among the new contribu-
tors are Ella Hamilton Durley, of the
Des Moines News, andJulien Richards,
of the Chicago Tribune.
The literary passions of literary
man are always interesting and they
are peculiarly so when an author of
such renown as William Den Howells
tells of them. The tenth installment
of Mr.. Howells' literary biography
under the title of my Literary Pas
sions" appears in the September
Ladies' Home Journal. Next in inter-
est to Mr.. Howells' contribution comes

The illustrations in the Art Amateur
for August are, as they ought to be,
largely suggestive of the GOODNESS
which views of the water gratefully
produce in the sultry heat of the dog
days. They include reproduction in
color of Edward Moran's "Lightship,"
full-page black-and-whites of Lionel
Walden's "Toilers of the Sea-" Ha-
quette's against the Tide" and
Bellinger's ''The Open Sea" and some
capital pencil and pen drawings by
Theodore X. Davis: in addition to
which there are sketches of water-lilies,
and the fourth of Mr.. Volkmar's fish
series of plates for china painters.

IMPORTANT FOOD TESTS.
How to Produce More Economical and
Healthful Articles for the Table.

How to Produce More Economical and
Healthful Articles for the Table.
The official food analyses by the
United States and Canadian govern
ments have been studied with interest.
The United States government report
gives the names of eighteen well-known
baking powders, some of them adver-
tised as pure cream-of-tartar powders,
which contain alum.
The report shows the Royal to be a
pure cream-of-tartar baking powder,
the highest in strength, evolving 100 6
cubic inches of leavening gas per sin
gle ounce of powder. There were
eight other brands of cream-of-tartar
powders tested, and their average
strength was 111.5 cubic inches of gas
per ounce of powder
The Canadian government investiga-
tions were of still larger number of
powders. The Royal Baking Powder
was here also shown the purest and
highest in strength, containing forty
five per cent more leavening gas per
ounce than the average of all the
other cream-of-t tartar powders.
These figures are very instructive to
the practical housekeeper. They indi-
cate that the Royal Baking Powder
goes more than 33 per cent further in
use than the others, or is one-third
more economical. Still more import
ant than this, however, they prove this
popular article has been brought to the
highest degree of purity-for to its SUI
perlative purity this superiority in
strength is due-and consequently that
by its use we may be insured the pur-
est and most wholesome food.
The powders of lower strength are
found to leave large amounts of impur-
tiles in the food. This fact is empha-
sized by the report of the Ohio State
Food Commissioner, who while finding
the Royal practically pure, found no
other powder to contain less than 10
per cent. of inert or foreign matters.
The statistics show that there is used
in the manufacture of the Royal Bak-
ing Powder more than half of all the
cream-of-tartar consumed in the United
States for all purposes. The won
derful sale thus indicated for the Royal
Baking Powder-greater than that of
all other baking powders combined-is
perhaps even higher evidence than
that already quoted of the superiority
of this article, and of its indispensable
ness to modern cookery.

JAPAN RECOGNIZED AS A CIV

Treaty Negotiated with England-Rus-

dence-Dutch Expedition Against Ma
tives Defeated.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 90. A new
treaty has been negotiated between
Japan and Great Britain by which the
claim of extra territorial jurisdiction
by the latter is abandoned. Negotia
tions looking to the ratification of
similar treaties are going on between
Japan and the United States and other
European nations than Great Britain,
and it is assumed they will now
speedily follow the example set by
the latter and fully recognize the
right of Japan to administer justice
in its own territory. The Importance
of Great Britain's action which, by
the way, tends to discredit the stories
that it is hostile to Japan in it's pres.
emit war, lies in the fact that it is the
recognition of Japan as fully civil
LIKED power.
