THE HIGHEST - AWARD. Royal Baking Powder la atreagth and Value SO Per Coat A bore Its Nearest Competitor The Royal Baking Powder has the en viable record of bavins received the high est sward for articles of its class frreat eet strength, purest ingredient, most perfectly combined wherever exhibited in competition with others. In the ex hibitions of former years, at the Centen nial, at Paris, Vienna and at the various Ktate and Industrial Fairs, where it lias been exhibited, judges have invariably warded the Koyal Baking Powder the highest honors. " . At the recent World's Fair the exami nation for the baking powder awards weremaae Dy tne experts ol the chemi cal division of tlie Agricultural Depart ment of Washington. The official re port of the tests of the bakine powders which were made by this department for uie spec) tie purpose of ascertaining which was the best, and wbich hag been made public, shows the leavening strength of the Koyal to be 100 cubic inches of car bonic gas per ounce of powder. Of the cream of tartar baking powders exhib ited at tne r air tne next highest strength thus tested contained but 133 cubic inches of leavening gas. The other powders gave an average of 111. The .Koyal, therefore, was found of 20 per cent greater leavening strengta wan its nearest competitor, and 44 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 fineness, delicacy and wholesome- ness could not be measured by figures It is these high, qualities, known and appreciated by the women of the coun try for so many years, that have caused the sales of the Koyal Bakine Powder, as shown by statistics, to exceed the sales ol all otlier baking powders combined.

Stout of Kinlv. 111., and it is due no doubt partly to this popularity that the recora ot uie rase nas created sucii wide spread interest. While his experience is not witnout an equal, yet it lias been sufficiently remarkable to demand the attention of thousands of people in llli nois, among whom are numbered soma of the most eminent physicians. in January, iU3, Air. stont was stricken with what was then believed to be sciatic rheumatism, and in a short time was barely able to hobble around on crutches, and it seemed to his friends that his davs were numbered. To-dav he is a strong, hearty-looking man of pounds. How this wonderful change was brought about is most interesting as told to a representative of the Mepubli- can oy inr. cnout niroseu : . " I was afflicted with sciatic rheuma tism and lumbago in January, 18i3. The sciatic nerve on the right aide be came atfected in the hip. running down to the ankle and across the small of the back to the left side, and soon my whole system became atilicted, causing me the most excruciating pain. - In a very short time i oeeame totally unable to attend to any business whatever, and the dis ease rapidly growing worse, I had to take to my bed, where 1 lay sunering almost continuously for months the most agon izing torture, scarcely being able to move or oe moved. At one time 1 lay for six weeks flat on my back, the slightest movement causing me such pain as al most to throw me into convulsions. I cannot begin to express to you the in tense pain I suffered. I was drawn by the severeness of the malady ever to the leftside: lost my appetite: hod no de sire for food, and what little 1 did eat I could not digest, the digestive organs failing to perform their duty, adding greatly to my already precarious condi tion. For weeks at a time I was unable to eat or sleep, sufierinir all the time most intensely and at times fearing 1 would lose mv reason, and would have welcomed death to relieve me of my suf ferings. "I consulted with local physicians and some of the most eminent specialists of the larger cities throughout the country, some treating me for one thing and some for another, but without effect, and I re ceived no relief whatever. One physi cian told me I had double curvature of the spine and would eventually become paralyzed. . I spent hundreds of dollars in the short time I waa afflicted without receivinz the least benefit. Mv friends all thought that there was no hope for me whatever, and said that I must die and I myself had almost given up in de spair, when in September, 18113, about eignt montns alter l was first amicted, my attention was called to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Without much hope I at once sent to C. F. Rickey & Co., druggists, ML Sterling, III., and procured some ol tne puis, and immed ately began taking them. Before long became aware of a ureat chantre for th better in my almost hopeless condition. My appetite came back, and my digestive organs penormea tneir usual functions properly. I took some more and grew rapidly better could situ D in a chair, and my body becran to straighten out continued the treatment, and in a short time was able to be about on crutches. My recovery from that time on was very rapid and assured. My right leg, which oeiore l commenced this treatment was numb and 'dead, now experienced prickme. tinelinir sensation. I was en abled to throw away my crutches and walk upright once more among my fel lows, a better man Dbvsicallv than ever before. When first taken by the disease l weignea lou pounds ; was reduced to 115; I now weigh 166, more than I ever weignea at any time in my lile. Tea, sir, 1 lay my recovery entirely to Pink Pills."

O. W. FUtKlMS. Somewhat Restricted and Eminently Ro ' llgloM aad Practice!. It would seem, judging from Miss Emily Penrose's lectures on early Athen ian customs, that the women of ancient Greece, though they were fair to look npon and inspired the sculptured ideals that have ever since set the standard of womanly loveliness, really had a very prosaic and stupid time or tt among all the old poets and philosophers. And that it is a great deal nicer to 11 va now. even with a hoop in yojir skirt and a stiff derby on your head, than in those days of poetry and high art, when a woman bad no clubs or leagues, no cial science sisterhoods, no sewing co teries with nice men drifting in at the tea hour, no literary guilds or sanitary classes, no street cleaning organisations or hygienic fraternities, no nervous pros tration, no crinoline, no careen and no stockings. - Little Athenian maids were kept close ly in the women's apartments until they were married and very rarely appeared in public They were taught leading, writing and dancing as accomplish ments, but their real education consisted in' learning to spin, to weave, to em broider and the treatment of simple 111 nessea among their slaves. They must also learn a great deal of elaborate rit ual, as women took a prominent part in the family worship. In the courtyard garden in the center of the women's apartments the girls played among the flowers with their pet animals, the live playthings taking the place of the me chanical tors and talking dolls and small flirtations of today. At T years old a girl might become an Arrephoroe a most envied post and take part in the festi vals or Athena. At 10 she might engage in ths exciting operation of grinding the corn to make votive cakes for Artemis; after that take part in certain high festivals and proces sions. Girls were frequently married at 19, the husband being chosen by the mother. Marriage was looked upon as both a civu and religious duty, and it was thought desirable that the husband should be much older than the wife, bat there could be little suspense or romance hi so prosaio a wooing, and after the wedding a wife never went out unattend ed, but spent her time in looking after the bouse, superintending the slaves and preventing waste. She waa responsible for everything in her house, where all the food was pre pared and all the clothing worn and made up. Her chief recreations were religious festivals and weddings, 'tier only outside duties taking part in funer al ceremonies. Possibly this is the source of the inherent love of women for the mysticism of religion, the joy of wed dings and the tragedy in death, for some women seem to enjoy the harrowing de tails of death's ceremonies as well as the melody of wedding bells. Still those nn- emancipated women inspired the poets to glad bursts of songs and gave to the artist exquisite models of womanly grace and to the historian examples of heroism and soli sacrifice which justi fied by facts the noble conceptions of the great poets who sang the charms of woman s virtue and beauty. And they didn't have to fret because men wouldn t let tbem vote or worry because their last season's skirts would barely make sleeves for this season's gowns. So perhaps they were happier after all, and happiness is, next to beau ty, the chief virtue of womanhood. New York Sun. 4'-.;i Vj(IPAITtl cnum.'

In the Samoan islands these dark patches are supposed to be portions of a woman's figure. A certain woman was once hammering something with a mal let when the moon arose, looking so much awe a breadfruit that the woman asked it to come down and allow her child to eat off a piece of it, but the moon, enraged at the insult, gobbled np woman, mallet and child, and there in the moon's belly yon may still behold them.
