ROYAL BAKING POWDER.

u 20 your grocer urges you to buy other
d ! baking powders in place of the
q a Royal, it is solely because he can
IA make more money on them, for all agree
that the Royal is the best. The low cost of
the others to the grocer is proof of the cheap
character Of their ingredients and Of their in
ferior quality. Decline to receive any bak-
ing powder in place of the old standby, the
thoroughly tried Royal. All others are cheap
er made powders of inferior strength, and
contain either lime, alum or sulphuric acid.

A fortnight afterwards Noel Barring

within a numbering h~ackney-ceach, was
day after day, and almost al day long,
driven about the West-end Of town,
anXiously inquiring for n whom ut

The speaker was a tall and fair Dung

woman b was addressing.
This last was worn and attenuated,
and hard and rigid lines, stamped by

She had scarcely passed her iftieth
year, but looked far older, while her
daughter, who was barely twenty years
OF age, would have been thought to
have seen some seventeen or eighteen
summers at most.
1t was near to one OF the parks that
these two were walking.

the elder; but the doctor has econ

And she looked with pitving tender

daughter, assuming a cheerfulness Il
was impossible she could really feel

young girl.
And then, pointing to a small parcel

And the ailing woman pointed to q
bench which was opposite to the spot
on which they then were, and beside
the park ratings.
While the foregoing conversation had
been in progress, a hackney coach had
stopped at about a hundred yards from
these two females.
The coachman, wearing a coat witt

with rudy face, and rotund form, had
with considerable difficulty, descended

Property Rights Among Birds.

the earth among themselves just about

beyond which his fellow bear does not
trespass with impunity-the wild rab-
bit you see on your lawn in the moon
light is the same little innocent crea-
ture you have been seeing every night

robin that gathers the early worm
for his breakfast from your garden,
will show fight when another comes
marauding on his preserve. Nor does
this last a year only, for there is good
evidence that the same bird will come
back to the claim 1t staked off the
year previous.-Meehan's Monthly for
