WHY ROYAL Baking Po wder is Best " The Royal Baking Powder is atrjolute ly pure, for I have bo found it in many test3 made both for tho.t company and the United States Govcrnir.e;it. M I will go still further and state that, because of the facil ities that company have for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and for other reasons dependent upon the proper proportions of the same, and the method of its preparation, "the Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the Purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the public. -HENUY'A.M0TT, Ph.

Johnny Macy has sowed grass seed on the clearing he burned the brush from last summer. Geo AllliiKbatn is still on the sick list from the grip, lie has hd a six week's sslge of it. Home of our farmers talk of sowing grain this week. The ground is in fine order, though it may tie a little too cold. The if ravel train has been drawn off this section of the It It. The track is now in fine shape. Winfleld Allinsthaui attended teachers' examination at Kugene last week and came home with a severe cold and sore throat. Three young men of this locality have spent eight days hunting two hounds that ran away to Mohawk but so far have been unsuccessful. Mr Jones' team ran away last week, and the result r. as a badly demoralised set of harness. Mr Rtockdale lias rented the farming land on the Cochran place from Dr Mcndenhatl, and kas moved into the Cochran house. Mr Hill lias gone to the fcantlatn mines to look for his bi other. He expects his father from the at in a few weeks. Several attachments have been placed on the Luckey farm the past week. The creditors were turely sortewhat hasty in their action. Mr Luckey has many friends here who regret to hear ot bis mysterious disappearance. Menta Iloeseman lias recovered from her attack of rheumatism. 8 I Holt lost one or two cows by their crowding into a hay barn. Mr Clay Fores nmn has tried courting in font, Linn and Yamhill counties, snd now for the past ten days has been attending court in Marion county, cause a suit against the 8 I' It It.

Everlastingly la it F E Allen. If not, wby not False in One, THE ENGLISH OF A LATIN PROVERB APPLIED TO A CONCERN WHICH IS NOW IN BUSINESS. A Business started upon shams, must resort to shams, or retire. Tho Royal Baking Powder Company garbled official documents to give it standing. For this it was publicly branded. The Food and Dairy Commissioner of Ohio caught the Royal Baking Powder Company in the act of misquoting his report, to make its goods appear unadulterated. The same Company stolo the livery of tho Board of Health of the State of New York and went on dress parade in the garment. The Board exposed this. When the apparel was removed, of course tho deformity was left alone. Then the Royal Baking Powder Company resorted to constructing a speaking machine. It called this machine "A Government Chemist." When it mouthed its words to order, tho Royal Company quoted the same and passed them around. These words represented the Royal Baking Powder as pure, etc V ' Government' is a stately word. Like everything good, it is abused by unscrupulous tricksters. MAKE A NOTE. There is no such office as that of Government Chemist. A THOUGHT, ' If a concern garbles official state papers, misquotes Boards . of Health and Creates Official Mouth-pieces, for its own pur poses, what will it do in adulterating its goods? : Dr. Price stands a foe to impure goods and tricky methods of advertising, - Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is the only Pure Cream Tartar Bakino: Powder now to fcc obtained, nrl (OI'ktv im tttiir roftTKftTie.
