There is no Substitute for
Royal Baking Powder.
The "Royal" is shown by all tests, official,
scientific and practical, stronger, purer, and
better in every way than any other Baking
Powder.
If some grocers try to sell another baking
powder in place of the "Royal," it is because
of the greater profit This of itself is good
evidence of the superiority of the "Royal."
To give greater profit the other must be a
lower cost powder, and to cost less it must
be made with cheaper and inferior materials,
and thus less healthful and of less value to
the consumer.
Royal Baking Powder
is pure and wholesome ; you are
not sure of other brands.

Mrs Catharine 8 Davis died at the
home of her daughter, Mr 8 A Hud-
dleslon In this city, this morning at 4
o'clock, aged 87 year and I days. Thus
auotler of Oregon' noble pioneer
women goes ti ber rew ard.
The deceased, whose maiden name
wa Catharine Hluyter, was born In
New York January 23, 1811. While
she .was yet quite young her family
moved to Pennsylvania aud settled
near Wlud Gap, When she was about
16 year of age they agalu moved and
settled at Linn, Ohio, where In 1831
she was ma'rled to Benjamin Davis',
In 1838 with her husband and three
children they moved to Plymouth,
Indiana, where they remained until
April, 1847, when they s'arted aoross
the plains for Oregou, coming by the,
Mod oo and Rogue river route, and ar
rived whers Eugene is now located
October of that year, locating on a
donation clulm about 2 miles north
west of the town. Her husband died
April 0,1858. filie still lived on the
old place until her children were all
grown and married. She leaves rive
children living: L E Davis, of New
port; L Dvl and Mrs S A HuduW
ston, of Eugene; W L Davis, Nash
ville, Lincoln county, and M M Divis,
of Corvallls.
She was universally beloved by the
early settlers of Lane county. Before
coming to Oregon site had studied
niedlclnj with a brother-in-law, wl o
was a physician, and for a number of
years after her arrival here there was
not a ptnslclan for miles, and she was
ever ready to ue her know ledge in re
lieving the dlstres-ed. Many a time
she mounted her fine riding horse
daring the dark hours of night and
start d out on a mission of mercy for a
bard ride of from 15 to 25 miles, and
that too, without compensation. Hon
T O Hendricks Informed us today of
ber coming to bin old home at Plea
an). Hil a dark rainy night one Jan

of his brother from dying.
Every pioneer In Laue county wll
