Home with ROYAL Baking Powder The United States Agricultural Department has issued (and circulates free) a valuable report giving the results of elaborate experiments made by and under the direction of the Department, which show the great saving from baking at home, as compared with cost of buying at the bakers. All bread, cake, biscuit, crullers, etc., are very much fresher, cleaner, cheaper and more wholesome when made at home with Royal Baking Powder. ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., NEW YORK.

YUy Thore Arc Alwny Three OfooveH Cnt on the Shaft. .tn making the Indian arrow three 1 mall undulating grooves are cut on the i.iiaft, running down to the head from iue lower end of the feathers. This has attracted the attention of some of the ethnologists, who pave the matter cou eidchible study and , wisely concluded that the little lines wore made for the blood to rim through or that they rep resented lightning. An old Omaha who had the reputation of being very skill ful In cutting the grooves in arrow shafts was called by the chief to do that work for him ou some arrows he was making. The chief himself was a fine arrow maker, but he recognized the skill of the old man In this particu lar iliuc. "While the work was In prog ress the- chief's son, who bad readied tho inquisitive ago and was looking on with wide eyed Interest, suddenly ask ed, "Venerable man, why are you mak ing those crooked lines?' Tbe chief gave n hearty laugh and said. "Father, tell htm, fo: he will be making arrows himself someday, and he should know." 'Every sapling," answered the old man, "out of which the arrow is made has some defect, however faultless It may appear to be. The good arrow maker takes a great deal of pains to smooth out and straighten the imperfections by oiling nnd heating, but tho wood In time will spring back because of Its In herent defects unless these grooves are cut In the shaft soon after seasoning nnd straightening."

The actual head of the Missouri river or what should be known as such had It been Intelligently named is Do Laey's or Shoshone lake, In tho National park. This lake, a considerable body of wa ter, Is the source of the Madison -river nnd forms with tho river the drainage outlet for most of the water of that portion of tbe National park, Tho Gal latin, or left source of the Missouri, Is formed by two streams, the East nnd West Gallatin, which unite about a mile above Its Junction with the Mis souri. The Madison and Gallatin are both somewhat smaller than tho Jeffer- BOU. Had Lewis and Clark ascended the Madison Instead of the Jefferson, which, becoming tho larger stream, they natu rally mistook for tho continuation of the Missouri, they would hnve discov ered the famous geysers In Flrehole ba sin, Shoshone lake nnd all the country which Is now incorporated within the limits of the National park. The Big Hole and the Beaverhead rivers flow Into the Jefferson at Twin Bridges, a few miles from the conflneneo of the Jefferson with the Missouri, so that in reality there nre six considerable riv ers, ell Joining one another within a ra dius of a few miles,' which unite to form the longest rlwr In tho world, measured from the gulf to the Rocky mountains.

OLD TIME TRAVELING. ffke Stnureconch Iu Enuliincl In Hi Seventeenth Century, The first stagecoach between the two capitals, London and Edinburgh, ap pears to have been started iu 1'iM. It ran once n fortnight, and the fare wiu 4. The time taken to the journey Is not accurately kuuwn, but between York and London It was fom' days. This lavish system of commuulcachm was not, however, kept up. as lu 17-13 the coach ran between Loudon and Edinburgh once a month only, taking a fortnight. If the weather was favor able, to tbo journey. Iu the day ; of stagecoaches people sometimes clubbed together and hlreJ a postcbalse for their journey as being quicker and less expensive, and Scot tish newspapers occasionally contain ed advertisements to tbe effect that a person about to proceed to London would bo glad to bear of a fellow "ad venturer" or two bent on the same Journey to share the expense. Iu 17u4 a heroic effort was made to Improve the London und Edinburgh coach.

Ireland Is rich In castles nnd ruins. Oue of the most undent of these Is the Griunnn of A 11 each, a ruin tbat stands on the heights above the Swilly and which was ceuturles ago the stronghold of the northern princes. Around this fort many battles were fought. Hosts swarmed over the ad jacent bills or fled down the river, and in those deadly engagements scenes were enacted that often cast a gloom over tbe whole country and 'wrecked tbe social life of Erin. As England gained power sho strove again and again to exert her Influence over tho sister isle, but warriors like Strongbow spurned a "foreign" su premacy and when the battle wont against them found n safo .retreat In the bogs, the valleys und the hills of that lonely country, only to sally forth to avenge themselves anew upon their enemies. Tho rock of Casbcl, Dunluce castle and many other spots were tbe centers of those fearful combats. Tho picturesque ruins of Sllgo abbey, built by Maurice Fitzgerald In A. D. 1253, and tbe moro Imposing propor tions of Donegal castle are silent wit nesses of a progress that proceeded steadily lu spite of these disturbances. Penrson's Weekly. Vital I lent of Vegetables. It will be a novel thought to many that not only animals, but vegetables also, generate a degree of beat by their life processes. It has been ob served that the sap of healthy trees Is not affected, as other liquids are. by frost; that the inner parts of fibrous plants are warmer than tlie air on cold days, nnd that snow melts more rapid ly at the foot of living trees than around dead ones. Some vegetables of their own accord grow warmer un til midday and then cool off again ns tho sun declines. The act of flowering has also been found to give rise to an increase of temperature. Tbe stalk of an Italian arum may have a daily In crease of no loss than 10 degrees, and the stalk of another plant has been, known to bo ns warm ns 100 degrees F, Some Drlcf Epitaphs. The following nro among the brief and curious epitaphs seen iu European cemeteries: At Worcester, Eu gland, the slab erected over a deivrted auc tioneer is inscribed with a single word, "Gone." In Sussex the Initials and date of tho death of the deceased are fol lowed by two words, "Ho was." On the monument of Charles the Great of Germany tlie brief Inscription Is "Caralo Magna" The most remarka ble is nt Cane Hill cemetery, Belfast, whore the inscription says, "Left til! called for." Welsh Wedding Custom. In the following quaintly formal let ter the parents of Welsh brides some times bid their friends attend the wed ding nnd bid them also not to come empty handed: "Whatever donation you may be pleased to bestow will bo thankfully received nud cheerfully re paid whenever called for on a similar occasion. Tho parents of the bride nud bridegroom elect deslro thnt all gifts due to them will be returned to them on tho above date and will be thank ful for all favors granted. Contains the Alphabet.

Abolish soup from the dinner table, eschew ten aud coffee, pass the baked beans with silent contempt, beware the genuine pancake, be not lured Into turning traitor to your stomach by America's common enemy, pie; be tran quil and cheerful at mealtimes, even If you are nursing a chronic grouch the rest of the time, and never, never go to bed with your stomach filled. These are scattering fragments of a thirty-two Inch shell of advice fired be fore the Chicago Medical society by Dr. Edwin B. Tuteur, who lectured on "When to Eat, What to Eat and How to Eat." "Soup," declared the doctor, "Is su perfluous lu a substantial dinner menu. So Is tea and so Is eoffeo and, In fact, any moisture except that which Is nat urally contained In the foods. Soup In the form of beef broth, without eggs, cereals or vegetables, would starve a dog to death In ten days. Beef tea made from the solid extract sold for tho use of Invalids Is a mere stimulant, a non-nutritious, queer tasting temper ance drink. Tea and coffee are not foods, but stimulants.
