At the recent banquet OF the Com.
mercial Exchange Mayor Cowherd
told a story which no one seemed to
have heard before. During the re-
cent financial panic" he said, "a Ger.
tain man, like many others, found
one night that his real estate was un.
salable, his firm bankrupt, and his
money locked up in suspended
bank. In deepest dependency he
walked slowly home and greeted tho
companion Of his joys and sorrow.

Hottest Spot In Amsrlcn.

'1t il not generally known that the
hottest, most arid desert in the world
is i'll the United States, but such is tho
fact, said II. G. McKoighan, of San
Diego, to the corridor man Mt the Lin.
dell. "Thc Cocapah Desert is small,
but it Is the most dangerous of any in
the known world. Standing upon the
mountain range to tho east, looking
across the sixty miles of plain to mn.
other mountain range ON the west,
with glimpses of two small lakes mid
way between them, it does not appear
that it requires any extraordinary feat
of danger or endurance TO cross tho
plain. And this has caused the loss of
many lives.
''Thc snnd of that desert is so hol
that in few miles the shoes will be
literally burned off the travellers feet,
beasts will be overcome before half
the distance is encompnsscd, and the
adventurous traveller dies in agony,
literally consumed with heat from
without and thirst within. Many have
been known to attempt the journey,
and but few hive been known to re.
turn. These had gone no further than
tho first lake, and finding it salt water
had benten retreat. Tho nearest
lake hns been reached often enough To
know that it Gibbs and flows with the
Gulf of California, and tho water is
the same, hence it must be n part OF
that body, although separated from it
by sixty or seventy mile of solid earth
and II high range of mountains.
"This range was probably at ono
time nm island, and the Cocapah
Desert the bottom of the sea. / once
started across the barren waste to in.
vestigate, but ] had not gone ten miles
before becoming completely exhausted,
the soles of my feet were blistered
with heat, my brain grew dizzy, L
could get no air, and the breath
seemed to stop in my throat. / turned
back just i'll time to save my life, and
when reached the forests of the
mountain once more | was tlelirious

Royal Bickwhcats.

For generations it has been the Gus
tom to mix the batter for buckwheat
cakes with yeast or emptyings, retain
ing portion of the batter left over
from one morning to raise the cakes
for the following day.
If kept too warm, or not used
promptly, this batter becomes excess
sively sour and Objectionable. Buck
wheat cakes raised by this means are
more often sour or heavy than light
and sweet If eaten daily they dis
-tre5s the stomach and cause skin erup-
tions and itching.
Instead of the old-fashioncd way we
have been making buckwheat cakes
this winter with Royal Baking Pow
der, mixing the batter fresh daily, and
find the result wonderfully satisfac-
tory. They are uniformly light and
sweet, more palntable and wholesome,
and can be eaten continuously without
the slightest digestive Inconvenience.
Besides they are mixed and baked in n
moment, requiring no time to rise.
Following is the receipt used:
Two cups of pure buckwheat -four
mot prepared or mixcd), ono cup
of wheat flour, two tablespoons of Royal
Baking Powder aud one-half teaspoon-
full of salt, all sifted we'll together. Mix
with milk into thin batter and bake
Mt once ON hot griddle. Once prop
crly tested from this receipt, no other
buckwhcat will find its way to your
table. Domestic Cookery.
