You can Economize
By using Royal Baking Powder to the exclusion
of all other leavening agents. The official ana
lysts report it to be 27 greater in leavening
strength than the other powders. It has three
times the leavening strength of many of the
cheap alum powders.
It never fails to make good bread, biscuit and
cake, so that there is no flour, eggs or butter spoiled
and wasted in heavy, sour and uneatable food.
Do dealers attempt, because times are dull,
to work off old stock, or low gracb brands of
baking powder? Decline to buy them. During
these times all desire to be economical, and
Royal is the most
Economical Baking Powder.

I Botantata Md Artists,
One day at the foot of a damp roclt I
saw a little lean man coming toward ma,
with a nose like an eagle's beak, nervous,
jerky movements and something quaint
and earnest in his countenance.
, Unfortunately I was looking at a plant
w;lh long, straight green stalk and
white, delicate corolla, which grew near
some hidden springs.
' He took me for a raw fellow botanist.
"Ah, hero yon are, gathering plants!
What! Cy the stalk, clumsy? What

well chosen. Courage! You'll get on.
"But I am no botanist."
"Very good: yon are modest. There
are rare plants here which you should
absolutely carry away. Ha! What is
that? The Aqnilegia pyrenaica!"
And my little man started off like an
ixard, clambered op a slope, carefully
dug the soil about the flower, took it np
without cutting a single root, and re
turned with sparkling eyes, triumphant
air, and holding it aloft like a banner.

A Relative of n Miser.
"I was unlucky enough in my infancy to
have had an uncle who was a miser, ard
what is still more exasperating, who hud
money," said Harold MacComber. "This
uncle died when I was 15 years old and
willed considerable of personal and realty
possessions to bis relatives. Being one of
not more than three nephews and two
nieces, he willed me his old homestead, an
uncouth looking affair, but one that was
fairly valuable for its location in G .
Now, then, the fact that my uncle was a
miser preyed upon my mind to such an ex
tent that I did not rest well. I had an
tching suspicion that my uncle bad stored
tip his money in some box and burled it, or
sewed it in some sack and used it for a pil
low, or did something else with it equally
incongruous. When I attained my major-
ity, I resolved that I would find that money
if it was In the old homestead, and I could
think of no place else so appropriate or so
liable to contain It. I spent any number of
days ransacking that old place, looking
high and low for the hidden wealth.
"I sounded the wall for hidden closets arid
tapped every inch of t'.v floor to obtain a
dull sound of extra resistance. I examined
the fireplace, tbe garret and the cellar, but
to no purpose. I did not find the supposi
titious wealth. I crawled under the house
later and examined the floor and ground
without results. Then I bethought myself
of the cistern, and I planned at once to have
it emptied. In this cistern there was s
double floor or base, and between the two
I found a hermetically sealed case which
contained some literary effusions and a
number of old family trinkets of gold, but
no money. The last discovery disgusted me,
and I concluded that my uncle was not a
miser after all, but only a much over esti
mated old crank. Since then I have slept
better." bt. Ixmis (j lobe-Democrat.
THE DEATH FENALTT.
60CIAU COMPACT THAT UNDERLIES
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
The Fundamental law or Man Which Com
pels the State to Take the Ufa of On
Who Hae by HU Own Hand Taken the
Life of Another The Bight to Take Lira.
There Is an Infinite amount of loose
thinking, speaking and writing about capi
tal crime and its punishment. We are
growing too much accustomed to hear mur
der trials discussed as if they were contests
sot ween prosecuting officers eager to en
force the vengennos of a cruel and blood
thirsty state and the legal champions of an
unfortunate prisoner seeking to escape the
penalties of an unrighteous law. That is a
false view of the matter utterly false.
Reference is in order to the Bra priuot
ples on which society rests. There are
some primary truths which it seems need
to be firmly reasserted.
There were natural laws long before any
human laws were enacted. They are ele
mental, and their justice is self evident.
Among these natural laws there is one that
stands surely first. It is expressed in the
homely proverb, "Self preservation is the
first law of nature." From this first law
of nature it followed that when men lived
without organised society and had no state,
no written law, no courts and no regular
machinery of justice, any man whose wife
or daughter or son or brother or kinsman
of any sort was killed or injured, or whoae
home was Invaded by any kind of violence,
bad the rinbt of retaliation in his own
hands. If any of his household were slain,
he had the rixht to kill the slayer.
This natural law rules everywhere today
outside the picket fence of organized civ
ilization. It would rule in the United
States again and instantly if it were dis
tinctly proclaimed that laws and courts
bad ceased to exist and that every man, wo
man and child in the community had as
much protection as and no more than they
could provide for themselves. All the au
thorities on law and justice that have ever
spoken or written from the time of Moses
down to the days of Recorder Smyth, hare
agreed upon this point, that the right of
defensive and protective retaliation for in
jury is a natural one conferred by the Cre
ator upon every man, and not to be taken
away from him unless an equivalent pro
tection be afforded by the state.
The state is the product of civilization,
but what Is the state? The state is simply
a social compact. It is a contract between
every individual member of it and the col
lective community. The individual agrees
to give up many of his individual rights.
Among them he agrees to give up the right
to kill at sight the man who assails bim or
any of his kindred and binds himself never
to kill, except when in his judgment his
own life will be lost if he does not. The
individual Agrees further not to kill at
sight the assassin or the violator of his
wife or daughter, but instead to leave the
man who has thus irreparably injured him
to the public justice of the state. But the
individual citizen is only one party to the
social contract. The state also agrees to do
certain things in return for the surrender
of individual rights.
The state binds itself to give to the In
dividual citizen, through its laws and its
courts, the same just satisfaction which be
would be clearly entitled to demand and
take if he lived in a desert where no human
tribunal existed. The state says to him:
"The right to kill the man who kills your
nearest and dearest ones is surrendered, but
it is not lost. If your home is invaded, your
hearthstone desecrated, your household
robbed of its inmates to fill premature and
bloody graves, the collective state will hold
bim who does these things to the same account-ability
to which you yourself could
and would hold him if you lived in a state
of nature, in the full enjoyment of your
natural rights."
The law which makes murder punishable
with death is the logical outcome of that
compact between the state and the Individ
nal citizen. It is idle to talk of the state as
having any malice to gratify or any ven
geance to appease against such a man as
Almy, the murderer of Christie Warden in
New Hampshire, or Harris in New York.
Society collectively can not and does not
seek the life of any man. But the state has
made a compact under which it is stipu-
lated that the natural right of private ven-
geance shall not be exercised, yet by that :
same compact it has guaranteed to protect
U crj uuusruum fiituiu iua uuiucis n win ail
such invasions and violations, and to do it j
by placing every man in the community
under a bond not to kill, with the penalty!
attached to the bond that if he will not let j
another live neither shall he live himself.
We may theorize, and speculate, and
split legal hairs, and raise moral quibbles
from now to the crack of doom, but we
never can get away from the basic laws of :
human nature. Men will never surrender '
their natural right to defend their lives, ;
their homes, their wives snd their children
against the assassin by killing him any
longer than the state fulfills its duty to
hold murderers to tbe same expiation
which, if there were no laws and no courts,
they would certainly be held by those
whom tbey wronged, and they never ought
to surrender it. James W. Clarke in Jew
York Recorder.
Curiosities About the Bhlnoceros.
The rhinoceros is a beastof legendary and
mythical associations as well as of stern
reality. In the mythology of all tbe old
world be figures very conspicuously, being
worshiped as a god by tbe early Javanese
tribes and lauded as the builder of the earth
and tbe heavens by several East African
peoples. The old Jewish Talmud declares
that bis skin is folded as a result of having
been exposed 40 days and 40 nights in tho
waters of tbe flood. The waters of the
great deluge were hot, according to Ta
bari, where we read: "After that Noah sent
forth the dove. The dove departed and
without tarrying put her feet in tbe water.
The waters of the flood were hot, and tbey
scalded and pickled tbe legs of the dove.
It was hot and briny, and feathers would
not grow on her legs any more, and tbe skin
scaled off. Now, doves which have red and
featherless legs are of the sort which Noah
sent forth."
This is only cited for authority to prove
why the skin of tbe rhinoceros lays in folds
and ridges. Certainly if the waters were
hot enough to "pickle and scald" a dove's
legs at tbe moment of contact, they would
make the skin of a rhinoceros too large for
him in the course of 40 dsysl
"But," you say, "why was be exposed in
tbe waters of the great deluge while all tbe
other beasts were safely housed in the ark t"
Simply because he was too large to lie put
aboard the great lifeship. The bulk of tbe
old rabbinic writers agree that the rhino
ceros floated along with the ark, but they
disagree as to bow tbe floating operation
was performed. St. Louis Republic.

STOCK GAMBLING.
The "Bttlla," the "Bear," the Amateurs
and Hrokere and Their Methods.
I do not know how it is in London, Parts
and the other great cilice of fcurope, but
can hardly believe that the number of per
sons in any of them who speculate ' l stocks
bears so large a proportion to tue euttre
Dooulation aa it does here in rsew York.
Men, and women, too, of all trades and oc
cupations and of every degree of pecuniary
ability habitually engage Id operation on
our Stock Exchange and find in thera
.runsernent if not profit. Indeed, if the
lock brokers had fur customers only hv
veatore and professional speculators, half
sf them and probably more could not make
a living. The oommlaaions and interest
paid them by merchants, lawyers, doctors.
manufacturers and retired capitalists, not
to mention women, furnish the greater
part of their incomes, and the very magni
tude of this miscellaneous crowd, augen-
ed as it is by recruits from other cttlea of
the Colon, all of them being borrowers of
money, renders a breakdown in the market
exceedingly easy.
As is well known, the amateur ateek op
erator expects to make his gains by sorting
at a higher price than he buys at. This is
the natural method of conducting business
in other thiugs, and the application of it to
stock transactions follows as a matter of
course. The many legends) current of pco-
f lie who have acquired fortunes by purchas
ng apparently worthless stocks at nominal
prices and subsequently selling them at an
enormous advance also helps to confirm
amateurs in this view of the proper course
to be taken, and therefore most of them are
what are called "bulls." Professional stock
gamblers, on the contrary, are as often
"bears" as bulls that la, they sell at going
prices stocks which they do not bold in the
expectation of buying them back, cheaper.
As a rule, however, the "bulls ' among the
professionals also outnumber the "bears'
and are said in the long run to be more suc
cessful.
Amateur stock gamblers, besides being
for the most part bulls, have rarely enough
readycash of theirown to pay for what they
desire to buy, and hence what cash they
have thev put up as "margins ' and rely on
their brokers to furnish the rest. This the
brokers do by borrowing from banks, trust
eompaules and private lenders, and the ag-
grewnte of these borrowings runs up Into
the millions and tens of millions. hat
the result is when these loans are called in
we hare seen. The customer cannot pro
tect the broker, and so the broker to pro
tect bimself sells out the customer s stocks,
and when a hundred brokers are doing the
same thing at once the wonder is not that
prices go down, bnt thst they do not go
down more.
It is evident that the stock market, being
thus, as a rule, supported by purchasers
with borrowed money, is always liable to
collapse whenever borrowing becomes diffi
cult. It is a pyramid balanced on its apex,
ready to topple over with a slight push in
one direction or another. When this push
is strong, owing to the sudden attacks upon
a few vulnerable stocks and the contract
ing of loans resulting from the apprehen
sions of lenders, the overturn of the pyra
mid is inevitable, and the number of those
who are caught and crushed under it is very
large. Still this is a peril to which ths
victims voluntarily expose themselves, and
they have no right to try to east the
blame of their misfortune upon others. It
was old Andrew Jackson, I think, who of
tered the sage aphorism that men who trade
upon borrowed money ought to fall, or, as
a more modern authority once put it, ton
ny, don't buy what you can't pay for and
don't sell what you haven't got." Mat

Climate and Disease In Japan.
The European sojourning in Japan is par
ticularly affected through his nervous sys
tem and his respiratory organs, as a result
of tbe humidity and the abrupt changes of
temperature. In regard to tbe respiratory
apparatus it appears that the number of
movements is augmented, and the tension
of the aqueous vapor being very great that
of the oxygen is diminished with resulting
reduction in haematosis, thus opening the
door to all maladies through depression of
nutrition from rheumatism and diabetes
to gout and anaunia, which are everyday
diseases in Japan. Contrary, in fact, to tbe
general notion, central Japan possesses a
climate exceedingly favorable to tbe devel
opment of anaemia.
Further, the climate of Japan, through
its fervid heat, depresses tbenervoussystem
hence diminution of physical activity, en
feeblement of tbe cerebral faculties, follow
ed by apathy, somnolence and complete
prostration of the powers. In order to avoid
the pernicious influence of tbe climate It is
recommended that the foreigner spend the
summer at tbe north, say at Yeso or in tbe
north of Niphon, where the climate is dry
and invigorating. Otherwise the disad
vantages named will too certainly be ex
perienced. New York Tribune.
Queer Japan Beliefs,
The Japanese believe in mora mythical
croatures than any other people on ths
globe, civilised or savage. Among these
are mythical animals without any re
niarkablo peculiarities of conformation,
but gifted with supernatural attributes,
such as the tiger which is said to turn as
white as a polar boar oa tlst date of his one
thousandth birthday. They also bolievs
In a species of fox which if it lives to be SO
years old without having been chased by
a dog transforms itself Into a beautiful
woman. This same fox, if ha can nan
age to live for a century, gains additional
powers, such as becoming a wonderful
w ixard, etc When be lives to be 1,000
years old, he becomes a "celestial fox,"
with nine golden tails, and has the power
of going to heaven and returning when
ever he chooses.
These Japs also believe in a multitude
of animals distinguished by their mon

swallow an elephant; boxs with eight
legs; monkeys with four ears and seven

'August
Flower
My wife suffered with indigestion
and dvsDeosia for vears. Life be
came a burden to her. Physicians
failed to give relief. After reading
one of your books, I purchased
bottle oi August I- lower. It worked
like a charm. My wife received im
mediate relief after taking tbe first
dose. She was completely cured
now weighs 165 pounds, and can eat
anything she desires without any
deleterious results as was formerly
the case. C. II. Dear, Prop'r Wash
