The difference of cost between
good and a poor baking pow
der would not amount for FAM
ily's supply to one dollar year.
The poor powder would cost
many times this in doctors bills.
Royal Baking Powder may cost little
more per can, but it insures perfect,
wholesome food. In fact, it is more
economical in the end, because it goes
further in leavening and never spoils
the food
Royal Baking Powder used always in
making the biscuit and cake saves both
health and money.

Like the modern cowboy yell of the
western troops in the Cuban campaign.
the war cries and slogans of the an
cient Irish clans often had much effect
in inspiring fear in the enemy and
courage and enthusiasm in the com
mand. The simplest and most fire.
quent of old Erin's war cries was
"Faire, faire," signifying watch" or
"look out" 1t was precautionary sig
nal and was commonly written Far
rah." From it the modern "hurrah"
is supposed to have been derived An
other cry was "a buaidh," which
meant ito the victory" 1t was pro-
nounced "aboo," and followed the
name of the clan, or leader, according
to circumstances, like "O'Neill aboo, ="
or "Clann Conail aboo." Frequently
"a buaidh" is construed incorrectly in
modern English to mean forever"
That translation applies to 'go brath, -
but not "a buaidh." The famous Irish
cry of "Fag an bealach," meaning
clear the way" scared the spunk out

Animal Pecularities.

A herd of wild Asian buffaloes will
charge any foe, even tiger. to save
the life of one of their number who
has been wounded. Elephants,
baboons and other animals will do the
same thing in wild state.
On the other hand, monkeys have
been known to fall upon one of their
number who is ill and drown him,
possibly as an act of mercy. SINH
larly wolves destroy one of the pack
which becomes helpless.
If an otter is trapped, his brother
otter will run around him all night,
showing the utmost concern.
A writer in the Spectator states that
he has seen sparrows in groups dis
cussing and lamenting when one of
their number had fallen into a trap.
Next day, when a robin was caught,
the sparrows paid no attention.
He adds that he had seen a big pig
try to help smaller one through a
hole in the fence paling by pulling at
it's head.

The Government has turned the
mania for collecting stamps to good
account The confirmed stamp collec-
tor is one of the most enthusiastic and
persistent of all men who pursue fads.
For long time persons of this class
have been beseeching the Government
to place on sale complete sets of its
newspaper and periodical stamps, and
finally the postoflice department con.
sented to do So Fifty thousand COM
plete sets of these stamps were offered
to the public at So a set. A set con.
sists OF twelve stamps, the one-cent,
two-cent, five-cent, ten cent, twenty
fve-cent, fifty and one hundred dollar
stamp. Of course the stamps thus
sold cannot be redeemed or used for
postage, as their aggregate face value
is far greater than the price charged
for them. 1t is said that there are
several hundred thousand stamps col
lectors in the United States and more
than million in the world. The de-
mand for the supply Of stamp sets put
on sale by the Government has there
fore far exceeded the supply. The
Government has made nearly quarter
of million dollars by this little spec
ulation, the cost of printing the stamps
from plates already on hand being
very small.

Of all blame, Mr.. Conn could not be

the way, only twenty-seven churches
