THE HIGHEST AWARD.
Royal Baking Powder in Strength and
Value 30 Per Cent Above Its Nearest
Competitor.

Royal Baking Powder in Strength and
Value 30 Per Cent Above Its Nearest
Competitor.
The Royal Baking Powder has the en-
viable record of having received the high
est award for articles of its class-great-
est strength, purest ingredients, most
perfectly ombined-wherever exhibited
in competition with others. In the ex-
hibitions of former years, at the Centen-
nial, at Paris, Vienna and at the various
State and Industrial Fairs, where it has
been exhibited, judges have invariably
awarded the Royal Baking Powder the
highest honors.
At the recent Worlds Fair the exami-
nation for the baking powder awards
were made by the experts of the chemi-
cal division of the Agricultural Depart
ment OF Washington. The official re-
port of the tests of the baking powders
which were made BY this department for
the specific purpose of ascertaining which
was the best, and which has been made
public, shows the leavening strength of
the Royal to be 160 cubic inches of car
bonic gas per ounce of powder. OF the
cream of tartar baking powders exhib-
ited at the fair the next highest in
strength thus tested contained but 133
cubic inches of leavening gas. The other
powders gave an average of Ill. The
Royal, therefore, was found of 20 per
cent greater leavening strength than its
nearest competitor, and Al per cent
above the average of all the other tests.
Its superiority in other respects, how
ever, in the quality of the food it makes
as to ineness, delicacy and wholesome
ness could not be measured by figures.
1t is these high qualities, known and
appreciated by the women of the coun-
try for SO many years. that have caused
the sa.es of the Royal Baking Powder, as
shown by statistics, to exceed the sales
of all other baking powders combined.

ment Finally Manchester engineer de-
termined to figure out just what that cat's s
endurance amounted to. He consulted the
time table to find the speed of the train
and got the dimensions of the car wheels
from the company's officials. Then he
started his figuring.
Supposing the wheels to be feet inch
es in diameter and the distance from the
terminus at St. Pancras to Kettering to
be 72 miles, he found that the pussy cat
must have performed 81, $50 revolutions
in hour and 81 minutes, which is a job
that only very big, powerful and excep-
tionally determined ten pound cat could
hope to tackle with any hope of success.
Then the englner had recourse to a dia-
gram of the cat slung to the axle to aid
him in his further calculations Pussy's
center of gravity, he figured, would fall
about 12 inches from the center of the
axle, and at speed of so miles an hour it
would reel off the mere bagatelle of 4S0
revolutions a minute, the velocity of her
center Of gravity meanwhile being so feet
per second. He then found that there had
been something like 700 pounds weight
thrown upon the leading claws when trav-
cling at full speed.
The engineer then made personal ex-
animation of the cat, taking exact meas
urements of her toe nails, and as result
of more calculations of a very fine nature
he found that pussy's resistance to centrif-
ugal force was equal to IL tons per square
inch of claw section. There were other
factors to be considered in really exact
solution of the matter, such as wind re-
sistance when passing through the top
centers. But the engineer thought he had
gone about far enough,

An Interesting Use of Photography.

A French photographer lately invented
a process by which bit of ordinary pa
per-the leaf Of book, for example-can
be made sensitive to the light without
affecting the rest of the page. Acting on
this hint, the French war minister has
begun to take the portraits of conscripts
and recruits on the paper which gives
their height, complexion, age, etc., and
the cheapness and swiftness Of the oper-
alton, which is already in use in the
French army, is something remarkable.
1t costs only cent to get two copies Of
a portrait of Jacques Bonhomme-one
for his individual register and the other
for his muster ROLAND SO rapid is the
process that in few hours whole reg
iment can be SO photographed. The SOL
diers file along one by one, and each sits
for three seconds in the Photographic
chair, and the thing is done. Boston

Just Gus His Tail On Short When You
See One.
One morning recently Jack Lansdow Of
Dyer county, Tenn, picked up hatchot
and started out to the wood pile to cut
some kindling. AS he stepped from the
kitchen door he was surprised to see q
large hemlock porcupine climbing tree
about ten feet from the door. Lansdow
had often heard that if porcupine's tail
is cut off while in the act of climbing
it will stop and refuse to climb higher or
descend. AS the prickly little animal was
only about four feet from the ground, Jack
had no difficulty in springing forward and
with a quick blow of the hatchet severing
the tail of the porcupine in twain. Sure
enough, the animal stopped its ascent and
has remained in the same position since.
A porcupine is rarely ever seen in that
part Of the country and is therefore quite
. curiosity to Tennesseeans. Jacks neigh

A WONDERFUL CAT.

Cats have shown wonderful powers Of
coming unscathed out of perilous posi-.
tions If half the stories which have been
told are true, and the latest cat story,
which comes FROM England via the New
York World, proves no exception to the
rule. The cat In this case lived In London,
but for some reason 1t perched itself upon
an axle Of one Of the cars composing an
express train on the Midland railway. The
train is fast one and did not stop until
1t reached Kettering, 20 miles from the
starting point. There the trainmen, max
ing their rounds Of inspection, found pussy
still perched upon the axle, somewhat diz-
Ey and much rumpled as to fur, but still
ready for more adventures.
The railroad men were puzzled to know
how the cat could have retained her hold
apon pieco of iron revolving hundreds of
times every minute, and the more they
discussed 1t the greater was their astonish.
