A Pure Baking Powder.

A baking powder that can be de-
pended upon to be free from lime and
alum is a desideratum in these days OF
adulterated food. So far as .fcan be
Judged from the official reports, the
I" Royal" seems to be the only one yet
found by chemical analyses to be en-
tirely without one or the other of these
substances, and absolutely pure. This,
it is shown, results from the exclusive
use by its manufacturers of cream of
tartar specially refined and prepared by
patent processes which totally remove
the tartrate of lime and other impuri-
ties. The cost of this chemically pure
cream of tartar is much greater chan
any other, and it is used in no baking
powder except the" Royal" the manu-
facturers of which control the patents
under which it is refined.
DR., Edward G.. Love, formerly ana
lytical chemist for the q. S. Govern
ment, who made the analyses for the
New York State Board of Health in
their investigation Of baking powders,
and whose intimate knowledge of the
ingredients of all those sold in this
market enables him to speak authorita-
lively, says of the purity, wholesome
ness and superior quality of the
" Royal"
81 find the Royal Baking Powder
composed Of pure and wholesome in
gradients. 1t is a cream of tartar pow
der, and does not, contain either alum
or phosphates, or other injurious sub
stance"
Prof. Loves tests, and the recent
official tests both by the United States
and Canadian governments, show the
Royal Baking Powder to be superior to
all others in strength and leavening
power. 1t is not only the most econ
omical in use, but makes the purest,
food.

WAS A SLEEK ONE.
Harry Davis Gets Unlimited Credit and
BorroWs Money.

Harry Davis used to be an employe
of Thomas Garland, in the town OF
Salem. Today he occupies cell in a
prison at Springfield, Mo. He would
be given a similar resting place here il
some few of the farmers out near Salem
could have their way.
While Davis was working for Mr.
Garland he got quite we'll acquainted
with several of the farmers thereabouts.
He seemed to be very honest fellow,
and one day he raised the claim that
he had an estate of $4,000 coming to
him. In order to get it, however, he
was under the necessity of getting some
money with which to pay for certain
necessary legal proceedings. Mr..
Garland took compassion on him and
let him have $50. Shortly after this
he began to run large bills at various
stores Telling the same tale he Dor
rowed 5000 from Farmer billiard.
The field Of his operations was not
confined to Salem alone. He came
here and had DR.. Toles do about $lOO
worth of dental work for him. The
doctor has not seen any part of his pay
as yet, and things do not look very en-
couraging for any of those who trusted
| in Davis.
Soon after all these transactions ne
skipped. He has just been heard from
in the Springfield, Mo-, jail, where he
is languishing for the non-paYmentaof
board bill.

THE CROSS-EYED MAN.
It Is Hard tor an Actor to Make Him
Laugh.

Laugh.
Despite the fact that the audience
is not easily seen by the actor, he can,
by holding a fan or book between the
binding lights and the eyes, distin-
guish friends in the audience, and like
David Garrick, play to one face among
the many up1ifted to the stage. A pop
ular comedian says that when an audi
ence is dead and cold and he begins to
get disconnected, he selects cross-eyed
man or woman and begins to play to
him or her with all his energy. ut is
harder to make a cross-eyed person
laugh than a straight-eyed one" he ex-
plains, land when see the smiles COM
ing on a mans face while the eyes are
looking everywhere but at me, I know
that I am a success. One night I was
taken in, though. I played to a wo-
man crossed in both eyes, and she
squinted besides. From the rise Of the
curtain to it's fall I sought by every
power I possessed to extort one smile
from that woman. She sat bolt upright
like corpse, and was as chilly as one,
never smiling during the whole per-
Torrance. I afterwards found she was
deaf and dumb, and was in the charge
of keeper for mind unbalanced"
Miss Lillian Russell tells Of one of her
experiences that is doubtless pleasanter
in the recital than it was in the actual
experience. For some time she re-
ceived ardent letters from an unknown
admirer requesting a meeting and nam
ing the exact locality of the tryst. After
time, provoked by her lack Of response
to his devotion, he wrote her to the eff
feet that she had spurned the advances
Of an honorable man with good inten-
lions, that he was a scion of q noble
house, winding up the letter by stating
that on certain night he would shoot
her from a box indicated. Each mem
Der of the company received notifica-
ton to the same effect. Of course, ev-
cry precaution was taken by the man
agement All through the first act
the box was empty, but the terrors it's
shadows held will not be forgotten. To-
ward the end of the act an old gentle
man, one of Miss Russell's best friends,
entered the box and sat down quietly.
Then a general laugh arose from those
on the stage, for the hand Of the prac-
teal joker was recognized.

TO SHINE IN DARK.
Illuminated Bodies Can Be Made in
Simple Way.

simple way
Some additional experiments have
been made in France, it appears, to de-
termine the specific action of a consid-
cradle lowering of temperature upon
the brilliancy of certain bodies which
shine in the dark after having been ex-
posed to sunlight. Tubes of glass filled
with the powdered sulphides of calcium,
barium, strOntium, ETC., all substances
possessing the property of phosphores-
cence in a high degree, were exposed to
the solar rays and afterWard proved
to be luminous in the dark, this being
done in such a way as to Tx upon
the memory the mean value of the pro-
gressive diminutiOn of the emitted light,
and the time also was noted during
which the light was strong, less strong
and weak, respectively. The tubes were
next placed in bright sunlight for one
minute and then suddenly introduced
into a double-Walled glass cylinder, the
interspace of which was filled with
nitrous oxide at 40 degrees G. In about
five or six minutes the temperature
of the tubes was some 100 degrees. They
were then withdrawn, and, when OBJ
served in a perfectly dark chamber, no
luminosity whatever was percept1ble.
AS the tubes recovered their normal
temperature, however, the phosphores-
cence returned, without the exciting
a agency Of the suns rays or Of diffused
light. These results were proved to be
general for all phosphoreseent sub
stances employed. The experiments
showed. too, that the production of the
phosphorescent light requires certain
movement Of the constituent molecules
of bodies

Bristol Likely to follow the heaU u

According to the English journals the
comn1atiOn of the Manchester ship
canal is likely to spur Bristol TO
similar engineering enterprise, COM
petent authorities having already been
intrusted with the planning of the best
means of providing dock accommoda-
tions on the Avon for the largest YES
sells, with an estimate of the probable
cost. The river Avon, from Bristol to
Avonmouth is said to resemble a deep
trench some seven miles long, and at
no part more than 900 feet wide, so
that. when the tide is in, this trench
is more or less filled with muddy water
of a depth varying according to the
height of the flood, and, when the tide
is out, the steep black sides are eX-
posed to a considerable depth, and
down in the central hollow narrow
stream hastens away rapidly to the
mouth; the channel is available for
navigation by large ships only at hlgh
tide. and the idea is to transform the
entire estuary of the river into huge
dock seven miles or so in length, with
dock gates and a lock entrance run
ont in the frame of an immense Dam
900 feet long, stretching right across
the mouth of the river, pierced by
lock entrance at the north end of the
passage of ships, and by sluices at the
south end for the emission of the over
flow of the river water, outside jett1es
to facilitate the warping of vessels into
the lock and outside breakwaters to
protect the entrance channel, inside
uuays with a sufficient depth of water
to permit the biggest liner to lie along
