a story Of mistaken identity is told in
an English novel as follows:
While Scott of the Heavy Dragons and
also a member Of parliament was coming
out Of his club one day he was stopped by
a gentleman with a hearty salutation
Scott thought he recognized him. and tax
ing bis arm walked down toward the Par
Lament House ina the most friendly man
ner. They discussed mutual friends and
India and Paris and agreed to dine togeth-
O. the next day.
At the foot Of the street they got into a
trifiing dispute on recruiting in the army.
"You thought differently at Malta,
though. said the gentleman.
"Maltat" roared Scott. II never was IN
Malta in my life.
Not in Maltas Why, it was there we
knew each other,'
Then abruptly stopping and looking up
in Scott 5 face the man exclaimed, Never
saw you before and turning on bis heel
vanished. Scott never saw him again and
never found out who he was or fer whom
he himself had been taken. lie felt sure
while i'm his society that he knew him, but
could not remember his name.-Youth's

Work OF the Wind.

A heavy gale Of wind accompanied
by rain aud hail struck Orlando. Fla.
from the northwest, a little before
dark Monday evening. 1t only lasted
short time, but it uprooted or broke
oil many large pine and oak trees in
and around the city, including sever
al handsome shade trees just west Of
the San Juan hotel. Seven china ber-
ny trees We're also up.ooted, and three
or four orange trees in the Standard
Oil grove, northwestern of town,
went down. 1t is a very rare thing
for orange trees to suffer from a wind
storm.
The south slope of the roof OF the
Catholic church was blown off and
the Episcopal church was twisted or
moved on its foundations, crushing
the brick piers. Two or three small
buildings in the west end were moved
from their foundations and sheds and
small buildings all over town were
blown away.
1t is also reported that the crop of
grapes OIL the large vineyards north
west of town was badly injured by

Chinese Peers.

Is Manchu he can get this over in
hundred days-for the Manchus

they yielded something to Chinese
prejudices, would not yield too much
but II he is Chinaman he must
mourn for twenty-seyen months.
Ihls was the cause why the late Mar
quls Tseng did not, though his father
died In 1872, take up the title until
September, 1874, when he was again

CongrrgatiOnalIsts.

The new house of worship of the
Gate City Congregational church was
dedicated last Sunday, Rev. A. L.
Clarke of Shelby preaching the dedica-
tory sermon.
This church is one of nincty-one of
the same order in the state, eighteen
of which are colored. Five years ago
there were but twenty-six Copgrega-
tional churches in Alabama. The
gain in number of churches, as re.
ported for 1898, was II per cent, and
of members, 80 per cent. The indie
pendent and progressive spirit of
these churches is indicated by the fact
that one of the district conserences
(cxford) at its last meeting ordained
a woman, Rev. Margaret j. Smith, to
the ministry. This is probably the
first instance of such ordination in
Alabama or the south, though the
Cumberland Presbyterians and the
Disciples have resolved that a woman
may be ordained.

Do You Wish
the Finest Bread
and Cake?

1t is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder Is
the Purest and strongest Of all the baking powders
he Purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet
est most delicious food. The strongest baking pow
der makes the lightest food.
hat baking powder which is both purest and
strongest makes the most digestible and wholesome
food.
Why should not every housekeeper avail herself
OF the baking powder which will give her the best
food with the least trouble?
Avoid all baking powders sold with a Gift
or prize, or at lower price than the Royal.
as they invariably contain alum, lime or sui.
phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.
Certain protection from alum baking powders can
be had by declining to accept any substitute for the
Royal which is absolutely pure.

" Tip Is the ,ft ief.

IT, smallest incident, which,
most People, seems too insignificant
to notice, has often caused the cap
ture of criminal or the detection Of
plot All things are important to
certain people. A man tried his door
the other day to see whether it was
locked, and caused a crime.
He and his wife were preparing to
go to the theater. There was no
body else in the house. His wife
glanced outiof the window and saw a
man standing in the shadow of tree
across the street. She thought moth
ing of it at the time. AS they were
leaving the house the husband clicked
the latch of the door, as usual. As
they walked up the woman's eye
'hgain fell upon the motionless form
In the shadow of the tree.
She became suspicious.
ibid you lock the door when you
came out?" she asked of her husband.
Il suppose SO. l always do" he
said,
Hadn't you better make sure,
dear?"
"Oh, ] am sure. It's all right"
@But won't you go back and see?
Pm afraid you didn't, and I'd like to
be certain about it,"
2 So he walked back and tried the
door. OF course it was locked, but
his wife's anxiety was relieved.
( That simple act cost him great
deal. The man across the street had
not contemplated robbing that house
before, for he didn't know whether
any person was at home or not.
When the person who lived there
went back to try the door it satisfied
him that no enc was in it. He crept
back the alleyway, pried open a rear
window and helped himself to tho
contents Of the silver closet. And
he wouldn't have done it except for
that trifling, natural incident that
told him so much. - Philadelphia

little daughter and she took it to
heart quite forcibly because the
churches were all closed, and so she
dressed herself in some of her mothers
clothes one Sunday morning, and
perching upon the stairs proceeded to
hold church services. The little tot
was choir, and soprano, and preacher,
all in one. After calling upon Mrs.
Howe to sing a hymn, she personated
q well-known vocalist and sang, and
then she did little preaching, and
then made prayer. The prayer was
short, and was as follows:
%, Lord, make the smallpox 60

Of us, o, Lord, we've all been vac
