In Baking Powders
"Royal" Leads.
As the result of my tests, I find the
ROYAL BAKINQ POWDER superior to all
the others in every respect . It is entirely
free from all adulteration and unwhole
some impurity, and in baking it gives off
a greater volume of leavening gas than
any other powder. J is therefore not only
the purest, but also the strongest powder
with which I am acquainted.

CHARLOTTE TEMPLE'S GRAVE.
Tho Mm Popular Spot In Trinity Ctanrcn
. . yard. New York.
A few days ago passersby in Broad
way, looking through the high fenoe
that surrounds Trinity churchyard, saw
a slender black gowned girl kneeling by
the grave of Charlotte Temple. Her
bead was bowed in her hands, and she
seemed utterly lost to her surroundings.
After awhile she arose with a very pale
face, walked swiftly through the gates
and disappeared in the crowd. She was
only one of many devotees at the shrine
of the poor girl who died for love. No
body ever visits Trinity churchyard
without pausing for a few minutes be
fore the big brown slab that bears only
' the name 'Charlotte Temple. " -
"Ob, yes!" said the gray haired old
man whose duty it is to see that the an
cient tombs are kept in order. "It is the
most popular grave in the yard. I have
been here going on 17 years now, and
there have been very few days in good
weather when the grave has not had a
visitor. Several times I have seen wom
en come here and stand in the cold and
sleet and snow looking at the tomb.
Somehow they always look as if they
were in trouble.
"Seven or eight years ago I began to
pot potted flowers, geraniums and the
like on the grave, and I have kept it up
every summer since. It is mainly to
mark the grave, so that visitors can find
it It is the only grave in the yard that
has flowers on it Otherwise the people
would bother me to death. When they
ask me where the grave of Charlotte
Temple is now, I simply tell them that
it is over on the west side with some
potted flowers on it That saves me a
deal of trouble. -
"Several of the gravestones are crum
bling badly and will have to be repaired
if the descendants of the dead want to
perpetuate their memory. See; here is
the oldest grave in the place. "
Then the old man swept away a layer
of dust from a crumbling gray stone and
showed the date, 1681. "We have sev
eral that date almost as far back, " said
he, "but none of them is so popular as
that of Charlotte Temple.
Then the ancient attendant tucked
his broom under his arm, picked np his
wheelbarrow and trundled away among
the graves. New York Herald.
A Dog Palace.
Baron Farnchetti, the father of the
composer, has had a dog kennel erected
in his palace at Venice, made through
out of marble. The ceiling is decorated
with a splendid mosaic, entitled "The
Chase of Diana. " The eating and drink
ing vessels of the dogs are said to be of
embossed silver. Of course the kennel
is lighted by electricity. Familien

GALLANT CUSTER'S WIDOW.
She Shared Eta Peril la Many of Hla In
dian Campaigns.
1 Mrs. Ellstabeth & Coster, widow of
gallant General George A. Custer, whose
entire . command
was annihilated
by the Sioux at
the memorable
battle on the Lit
tie Big Horn In
1876, began bet
successful career
as a writer for the
sole purpose of
giving the public
an Insight into
the true character
of her husband.
He bad become
the Ideal hero and
Indian fighter of
the writers of sen
sational , , flotlon,
and Mrs. ' Custer
desired to present
a truer picture of
him. As she know
him he was a cul
tured gentleman
and a man of
strong affections
and domes tlo
MBS. custkr. tastes. He was a
fighter, too, but the gentler side of his na
ture the public was unacquainted with.
After eight yean of urging on the part of
Interested friends Mrs. Custer wrote
"Boots and Saddles," which was widely
read and most favorably received by the
general reader and tho critics. Her long
experience amid the perils of frontier army
life had given her plenty of material, and
two other books have since come from her
pen.
Mrs. Custer was born in Monroe, Mich.,
and was the daughter of Judge Daniel S.
Bacon. She met the dashing Custer in
1863, while be was waiting orders, and but
for Judge Bacon s opposition marriage
would have followed a very short courtship.
About this time Custer, then only 23 years
old, was promoted from captain to briga
dier general, and when he returned to
Monroe to urge his suit Judge Bacon con'
sented to an engagement
In February, 1801, the young couple
were married. Their honeymoon lasted
but a few days, for Custer was ordered on
a cavalry raid. Mrs. Custer accompanied
the Army of the Potomac, but saw little
of her husband. She says that during her
entire married life of 13 years there was
hardly an hour that she was not in peril or
racked with fears for her husband a safety.
During Custer's career as an Indian fight
er Mrs. Custer was often the only woman
with his command. On the frontier in
Dakota she was always In peril, and there
was a tacit understanding between Custer
and his officers that if at anytime the
party were surprised by Indiana and cap
ture seemed certain whoever had Mrs.
Custer in charge was to shoot her instant
ly to save her from torture at the hands of
the merciless redskins.
After the fatal battle that swept away
Custer and bis 877 comrades Mrs. Custer
took under ber special care the widows of
the officers who fell fighting at her hus
band's side. She affectionately calls them
"my widows" and has assisted them In
getting pensions and employment Mrs.
Custer supplements her writing by giving
lectures before clubs of women, schools
and church societies.
Telephone Between England and Holland.
It is .proposed to establish a telephone
line between England and Holland. The
London chamber of commerce and the
Netherlaud chamber of commerce are try
ing to ascertain if the time Is yet ripe for
the undertaking.
The Costly Cuckoo.
The eggs of the Bahama cuckoo are held
at $100 per set by dealers in birds' eggs.
BRANDING A CLAIM FALSE.
World's Fair Officials Expose a Pre
tender to an Award.
A most discreditable resalt of the late
Chicago World's Fair is the fraudulent
advertising of awards never received by
a Chicago baking powder firm. Officials
of the Exposition are much Incensed,
and have notined the onenuing parties
that the misstatements must cease.
They are defied, however, by the Chi
cago concern, who continue to advertise
the false statement that they received
the highest award for strength, purity
and excellence. Mr. Thatcher, Chief of
Agricultural Awards, shows in his letter I
that the awards granted were "for an !
exhibit of baiting powder," merelv, not '
Awa?rorBaLin7powders wHtea a
UjZtJlwlTlu
given to the Chicago company," as the
company claims and advertises.
; Another I act in connection with the a
baking powder business at the Chicago
Fair has come to light. Tlie identical
baking powder made by the Chicago!
concern, and so brazenly advertised as '
having received the highest award for
purity and excellence, it now appears
was iouna Dy ine analysts wno maae
the tests at the Fair to contain traces of
smmon s idu iu unsiei. -
The officials believe that though they
may be powerless to .top the misleading
publications of which they complain, 1
the quick wit of the people will rioubt-
less detect the spurious claims and be
able to apply the proper remedy.

FOR THE FARMERS
Useful Information Concern
ing Farm Work.
k BOOK ON INTENSIVE FARMING
The Great Northern Railway Has the
Work Under Preparation and is -'
, slroua of Obtaining all Information
i Possible.
A communication has been received
from St Paul from F. I. Whitney, gen
eral passenger and ticket agent of the
Great Northern railway, on the subject
of small and diversified farming. The
railway officials recognise the fact that
there is far more business for a road
from a region thickly populated and pro
ducing many kinds of crops than from a
thinly populated one devoted only to
the production of staples. For this rea
son they are anxious to see the Pacific
Northwest Increase largely in popula
tion by the cutting up of the large farms
into small tracts and their cultivation in
such a manner that each small area
shall support a family. . This matter of
immigration is an important one and
atl'ecu the entire Northwest. The efforts
of the railroads to induce the right kind
of immigrants to come here, and to lay
before them the tacts necessary to ac
complish that end, should receive gen
eral encouragement and aid. The in
formation asked for in the letter should
be suDDlied by the intelligent farmers.
journalists and hopgrowers who have it
at their command. Mr. Whitney's let
ter is as lot lows :
"We are desirous of securing a series
of letters from practical men of your
state devoted to the discussion ol inten
sive farming. In our various publica
tions, which we freely distribute about
the bast, we have made the broad claim
that ten acres properly cultivated to
vegetables or fruits will make a good liv
ing lor a latiiuy. I ins we nave done on
account of the many instances of suc
cess attending the tillage ot small areas,
an acre, more or less, which have come
to as from nearly everv part of the Pa
cific Northwest. There is more waste
land from an agricultural standpoint in
your States than in the Mississippi Val
ley. All the land capable of cultivation
in your country should be in small hold
ings and made to produce to the limit.
Small farming means much. It means
better roads, better schools, nearer
neighbors and better markets. It means
sociability, companionship and touch
with the world ; but I need not enlarge
upon the importance of increased popu
lation and well-managed acres.
"Your climate invites oat-door life; it
invites people from more rigorous sec
tions to, come and prolong their lives
and usefulness. Your varied resources
Invite capital, industry and develop
ment. New men will uncover new ave
nues to wealth and happiness. We be
lieve in building for the future, in lay
ing sure and firm foundations; but
while doing it we should share some of
its benefits. Let us ourselves partake of
the fruits of the tree and garden and
enjoy while we live some ol the Deauty
and perfume of the flowers.
"We therefore respectfully invite con
tributions from farmers, fruit raisers
and gardeners, showing what can be
done on one acre and upwards, and how
to do it. so that others may be instruct
ed in the art of right living and labor.
ten Acres though' gave an eastern
writer material sufficient to prepare a
very readable and nseful book. We be
lieve volumes can be written upon yonr
resources and possibilities. We do not
want a book from any single person;
matter to fill a newspaper column will
be plenty from each one, and our hope
is we may be favored with enough short
articles to make a book. Address F. I.
Whitney, G. P. & T. A., Great Northern
Eailway, 6t. Paul, Minn."
How to Measure an Aere.
It is desirable in fact, indispensable
for good work that a farmer should
know how many acres are in his field.
Otherwise he cannot apportion teed or
manure for it, nor can he tell how much
time it should take to plow, harrow or
cultivate. A good cotton cord, the size
of a plow line, should be kept for this
purpose. To make one, buy sixty-seven
feet of cotton rope an inch round, fasten
a ring at each end and make these rings
precisely sixty-six feet apart. This is
four rods. Tie a piece of red rag in the
center. One acre of ground will be a
piece 4 of these cords long and 2
me, equal to 10 Dy to rcxis, making iu
square rods to an acre. The advantage
of the rings is that one person can meas
ure alone Dy anving a stake in the
ground to hold the rope while he
stretehes it out. The rope should be
soaked in tar and then dried. This will
prevent shrinking. -..
X4kst year a ne.gnrjor oi tne writer nad
heavy sod plowed by contract at $2.50
per acre. Three persons stepped it on.
One said it was 4 acres, another said it
was a little over 5, and the third said it
was i acres. The contractor sent
over and got this rope, and all five men
measured it, and it was found to be just
3)4 acres. He had paid to have the
grass cut olf it for three years f 1 per
acre, or $5 each season, counting it to be
five acres in extent, thus losing $4.60
through ignorance.
Uet a measuring rod and when not in
use put it away, so that the hands can
not get at it or they will be very apt to
cut a piece off it to tie up harness, thns
making it worthless for measuring pur
poses. POULTRY NOTE. , .

Uoe Guaat Panted Mine Eventful Days a
Polio Commissioner of Ban Fraaelsoe.
Moans A. Gunst, a well known cltUon
of Snn Francisco who baa had a pictur
esque and "sporty" career, was appointed
police ootimilHslonor of that elty by Gov
ernor M.trkhuro lust before he retired from

disapproval from what Is called the "law

Budd to remove Junst. Uunst held th
office Just nine .'-".vs. but they were mem

but spent most of his early life In the
south. He moved to San Franolsco In
1873. His futhor was established In the
cloak business there at that ttnio and aid
ed Mose, the oldest of his sons, In setting
up a cigar stand In 1877. The boglnnlng
was small, but Gunst was a keen business
man, and from a little box of a place In
front ot a saloon entrance his store baa
grown to Its present proportions of one of
the largest Importing bouses In the city.
As he waxod In years and prosperity
Gunst took to petting prizefighters and
talking horse and other forms ot sport.
Jaok Dempsoy was one of bis Intimate
friends, aud he was soon on good terms
with every pugilist of any note. This waa
In the days when the California Atblotlo
club was In Its glory and a fight could be
brought off In San Franolsco In better
style and with more certainty than In any
city In the Union. Gunst makes one or
two trips every year to Havana and the
east, and his baggage always Included a
bigger stock of fighting news than It did
substantial articles oommonly Included In
luggage. Liberal with his money, he
found no trouble in galulng access to the
sporting circles of New York, Chicago and
Denver. He was present at the ringside In
most of tho big battles In the east and
gave the acquaintances he made there such
wise lore of the ring that he acquired a
name as an oracle (Queensberry rules)
abroad before he was recognized at borne.
Men with a fancy for backing fighters
commenced to Intrust him with commis
sions on California club battles, and then
he was Intrusted with syndicate money at
borne. Frequently he announced himself
as having 15,000, $10,000 or $20,000 to bet
on a fight or an election. Nothing was
ever said about the money belonging to
somebody else, and consequently Gunst
acquired a national reputation as being
the heaviest betting man In the west.
One ot the best stories concerning Dim
was printed in New York when he arrived
there on the eve of a big fight. A crowd
of men were assembled in a restaurant
dlsousslng the coming event and speculat
ing on Its outcome. A well known new
York flaneur was dining with an English
manager, and both were attracted by the
stir that Gunst'a entrance created among
the sports. One of tbem called the waiter
and asked the cause of the flurry.
"Mose Gunst has came," replied the
waiter, as if that were all sufficient.
The Englishman offended the Qaneur
and sailed for home after asking the latter
to cable him anything of Interest that
might happen while be waa on the water.
Arriving at London, he found the flaneur's
revenge in the following cablegram, col
lect: 'Mose Gunst has went."

The sale of 0 cent novels, descrip

small boys of New York. A reporter
loitering in a Park row book exchange

a pile of this trash. He had laid aside
"Broken Plume's Last Shot, ' "Old Cap

Boy Magician In Madagascar," "The
Young Nihilist" and "Frank and the
Azteo Treasure. "
"What are you going to do with that

"Going to read it alL It is my way

kind of rubbish, run down to my Long
Island home and just lie back and revel
in the absurdities of this class of liter
ature. It requires no mental effort what
ever to peruse them, and the amusement
afforded is unbounded. I get dear away
from the world of deeds, mortgages,

but who have been forced to confrsa that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicine with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried In nearly sll these
case and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Kxtract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophoa
ph.teshnd also been faithfully tried in vain.
The plintogrnnh of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladiea, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of too
pages which will be mailed to you, on re

You can then write those cured and learn
