Economy

The manufacturers of Royal
Baking Powder have always declined
to produce cheap baking powder
at the sacrifice of quality.
The Royal is made from the
most highly refined and wholesome
ingredients, and is the embodiment
of all the excellence possible to be
attained in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs only
a fair price, and is cheaper at its
price than any similar article.

SPEECH by A NOTED LAWYER

Judge Craig Biddle delivered the an
nual address before the Law Academy
at the rooms of the Historical Society
of Pennsylvania. He spoke on "Remin-
iscences of the Bench and Bar" and
his narrative OF quarter-century's in
cidents in the world OF courts was ex-
ceptionally interesting to lawyers. Half
world and twenty-five years on the
bench were drawn upon TO furnish ma
terial for the, judges address. He
said:
I'VE have ceased TO have at the bar
in later years any men of strong and
unusual characteristics. called in ordi-
nary parlance characters There Is
more sameness now and less variation
from the ordinary type of worthy and
respected citizens-hand-made goods
now yield to goods made by machinery
they are equally good. perhaps. but
they have no individuality. They are
so exactly alike that the loss of any OF
their parts can be at once supplied by
another equally fitted for the place.
This 10 considerable degree has taxi
en- place among men. and the individ-
uals OF our race do not vary as they
formerly did.
II think the most picturesque figure
OF my day was Mr.. David Paul Brown.
IL was very unusual in that time TO
write the name in full, and the an
nouncement OF that sonorous name at
once excited attention. He. was always
dressed in the height OF fashion. with
more or less jewelry on his person, and
always carried I'm his hand large gold
snuffbox. which he kept constantly in
view. Sometimes. in protracted homi-
eide case. when the sitting was con-
tinued during the night he would
change his costume two or three times.
He was a portly figure. and carried this
all of with fine force and effect; was
an orator. and spoke with great fluency
and force. unaided by any notes or
memoranda. Generally IN motion while
speaking. he required all the space that
could be afforded him. and moved con-
stantly from place TO place while en-
gagged in violent defamation. II this
was what Demosthenes meant by 'Ac-
ton. action. action. Mr.. Brown exhib-
tied It TO a high degree. He produced
the effect OF a great actor. and held his
audience bresthless till he reached his
climax.
The mode OF conducting a suit H.
very much less formal than II was IN
earlier days. I think the change took
place here. when Mr.. William NJ. Mere
difh was the leader OF the par. Tie
generally spoke with one foot on n
chair. when addressing the jury. and
never stlnted himself In the use OF TO.
bacco.The expectoration caused by this
interrupted very seriously some OF his
finest passages and caused dreadful
anti-climax. AZ he was a very able
lawyer and a very powerful advocate.
his example was followed, and the
business style Of speaking. rather colo
ouIal but very forcible and impressive,

"The defendant pleaded specially that
the alleged promises were made prior

the date OF the act empowering mar
ried women to make contracts, which
plea the plaintiff has traversed.
"The defendant, In connection with
