-a : You can Economize -M By using Royal Baking Powder to the exclusion of all other leavening agents. The official ana lysts report it to be 27 greater in leavening strength than the other powders. It has three times the leavening strength of many of the cheap alum powders. It never fails to make good bread, biscuit and cake, so that there is no flour, eggs or butter spoiled and wasted in heavy, sour and uneatable food. Do dealers attempt, because times are dull, to work off old stock, or low gracb brands of baking powder? Decline to buy them. During these times all desire to be economical, and Royal is the most Economical Baking Powder. vfvt The Club of the Future. A growing opinion is that the coming club will be the mixed one, where ceil and women will study together the ques tions that present themselves and work out together the problems of the day. And this, it is asserted, will not be a consolidation of the distinctively wom en's and men's clubs as they now exist, but a merging of the best elements of each into fresh organizations. Following this mixed club sentiment it is not surprising to find Mr. Stead in a Ltuiiuou journal tidvccGtiug "co-operative homes for the unmarried." By this he means that the co-operative homes for spinsters and those for bache lors should combine their housekeeping arrangements into a sort of idealized boarding house, where Mrs. Grundy would be appeased with "an experienced lady housekeeper" and where companies of detached or nnattached men and women could find congenial acquaint ance. The limitations of the word con genial Mr. Stead insists upon and ad mits that this matter of selection is the weak point In his scheme. The motion in any form grows out of a recognized drifting apart of the sexes under the changed condition of things. New York Times. Penalty of a Small Vice. Little vices have their inconveniences, as a Parisian burglar hfys just discovered to his cost. It appears that the other night a shop on one of the boulevards was broken into, and a strong box was found in the morning wrenched open and with the contents missing. At first it was thought that the burglar had left no trace, but on a careful examination of the floor a piece of chewed tobacco was discovered. This caused suspicion to rest on a former employee who was given to using tobacco in that particular way. He was sought out, and eventually such proofs of his guilt were forthcom ing that he was convicted. London News. Marrying Among Relation. In Persia it is an almost invariable cus tom to choose a wife from amrtig one's re lations, such as cousins in a near or remote decree, and only among acquaintances when failure has occurred in following the old habit. The Hebrews especially sanc tioned a plurality of wives according to the law of Moses, and tbat shows how thought ful they were of the future of their race so much so that sterility in a wife was consid ered a sufficient reason for contracting an other marriage.

One day at the foot of a damp rock I law a little loan man coming toward ins, with a nose like an eagle's beak, nervous, jerky movements and something quaint and earnest in his countenance. Unfortunately I was looking at a plant with long, straight green stalk and white, delicate corolla, which grew near some hidden springs. He took mo for a raw fellow botanist. "Ah, hero you are, gathering plants! What! Bv the stalk, clumsy? What will it do in your herbarium without Motp?" "But, sir" "Common plant, frequent in the en virons of Paris, Parnassia palustris; stem simple, erect, petals rounded. Those nectaries are curious; good study; plant well chosen. Courage! You'll get on." "But I am no botanist." "Very good; you are modest. There are rare plants here which yon should absolutely carry away. Ha! What is that? The Aquilegia pyrenaica!" And my little man started off like an izard, clambered up a slope, carefully dug the soil about the flower, took it up without cutting a single root, and re turned with sparkling eyes, triumphant air, and holding it aloft like a banner. "Plant peculiar to the Pyrenees. I have long wanted it. Come, my young friend, a slight examination. You don't know the species, but you recognize the family?" "Alas, I don't know a word of bot any!" He looked at me stupefied. "Then why do you gather plants?" "To see them, because they are pret ty." He put his flower into his case, adjust ed his cap and went away without add ing another word. "A Tour Through the Pyrenees." Poets In the Uouse of Commons. Several members of the house of com mons have published volumes of poems namely: William Abraham, member far Glamorganshire (Rhondda division), who is a Welsh bard, under the titlo of "Mabon;" William Allen, the member for Gateshead, who is an engineer and poet, and whose works include "A Book of Songs In English and Scottish;" Wil liam Johnston of Hallykilbeg, member of the southern division of Belfast, who is poet laureate of the institution of Orangemen ip Ireland; Professor Jebbof Cambridge university, who has pub lished translations into Greek and Latin verse, and T. D. Sullivan, member of the western division of Donegal, who has published a selection of songs. Sir George Otto Trevelyan published in 1869 a volume of poems entitled "The Ladies In Parliament," and other pieces, and has also written many verses, dra matic and satirical, of which another of the best known is "The Dawk Bunga low." Henry Smith Wright has published the first four books of the "Iliad" of Homer In English hexameter verse. The prime minister (Mr. W. E. Gladstone), though he has not published a volume of poems, has written verses both in English and Latin, while among his papers is said to be a Greek tragedy, which may one day be sent out in book form. Mr. J. W. Crombie. member for Kincardineshire, is the author of "Some Poets of the Peo ple In Foreign Lands." Two members of the house of lords have recently pub lished volumes of poemB namely, Lord Houehton, "Stray Verses," and thebish. on of Lincoln, "A Ladder of Heaven." London Tit-Bits.

"-St. Louis Globe-Democrat, THE DEATH PENALTY. SOCIAL COMPACT THAT UNDERLIES CAPITAL PUNISHMENT. The Fundamental Law of Man Which Com- pels the State to Take the Life of One Who Has by 111. Own Hand Taken the Life of Another The Right to Take Life. There is an infinite amount of loose thinking, speaking and writing about capi tal crime and its punishment. We are prowing too much occastovoijao hear mur der trials discussed as if they Were contests ketween prosecuting officers eager to en force the vengeance of a cruel and blood thirsty state and the legal champions of an unfortunate prisoner seeking to escape the penalties of an unrighteous law. That is a false view of the matter utterly false. Reference is in order to the first princi ples on which society rests. There are some primary truths which it seems need to be firmly reasserted. There were natural laws long before any human laws were enacted. They are ele mental, and their justice is self evident. Among these natural laws there is one that stands surely first. It is expressed in the homely proverb, "Self preservation is the first law of nature." From this first law of nature it followed that when men lived without organized society and had nostata, no written law, no courts and no regular machinery of justice, any man whose wife or daughter or son or brother or kinsman of any sort was killed or injured, or whoso home was invaded by any kind of violence, had the right of retaliation In his own hands. If any of his household were slain, he had the right to kill the slayer. This natural law rules everywhere today outside the picket fence of organized civ ilization. It would rule in the United States again and Instantly if it were dis tinctly proclaimed that laws and court had ceased to exist and that every man, wo. man and child in the community had as much protection as aud no more than they could provide for themselves. All the au thorities on law and justice that have ever spoken or written from the time of Moses down to the days of Recorder Smyth, have agreed upon this point, that the right of defensive and protective retaliation for in Jury is a natural one conferred by the Cre ator tipon every man, and not to be taken away from him unless an equivalent pro- Ternnn w nnnmwl hr the state. The state is the product of civilization. but what is the stater The state is simply a social compact. It is a contract between every individual member of it and the col lective community. The individual aarecs to give up many of his individual rights. Among them he agrees to give up the right to kill at sight the man who assails him or any of his kindred and binds himself never to kill, except when in his Judgment his own life will bo lost if he does not. The individual agrees further not to kill at sight the assassin or the violator of his wife or daughter, but instead to leave the man who has thus irreparably Injured him to the public justice of the state. But the individual citizen is only one party to th social cont ract. The state also agrees to do certain things in return for the surrender of individual rights. The state binds itself to give to the in dividual citizen, through its laws and its courts, the same just satisfaction which he would be clearly entitled to demand and take if he lived in a desert where no human tribunal existed. The state says to him: "The right to kill the man who kills your nearest and dearest ones Is surrendered, but it is not lost. If your home is Invaded, your hearthstone desecrated, your household roblied of its inmates to fill premature and bloody graves, the collective state will bold him who does these'thlngs to the same ac countability to which you yourself could and would hold him if you lived in a state of nature, in the full enjoyment of your natural rights." The law which makes murder punishable with death is the logical outcome of tbat compact between the state and the individ ual citizen, it Is idle to talk of the state as having any malice to gratify or any ven geance to appease against such a man as Almy, t he murderer of Christie Warden in New Hampshire, or Harris in New York. Society collectively can not and does not seek the life of any man. But the stute has made a compact under which It is stipu lated that the natural right of private ven geance shall not be exercised, yet by that same compact it has guaranteed to protect every household within iU borders from all such invasions and violations, and tojlo it by placing every man In the community under a bond not to kill, with the penalty attached to the bond that if he will not let another live neither shall be live himself. We may theorize, and speculate, and split legal hairs, and raise moral quibbles from now to the crack of doom, but we never can get away iro n ine uastc laws or nunian nature, flien wi t never surrenuer ware found ln tbe VttUcyi canie their natural right to defend their Ives, up0n the borax fields and later the deposits their homes, their wives and their children ln Nevada, from the Pacific coast 4,000.000 against the assassin by killing him any ' pounds a year are supplied for home con longer than thestate fulfills its duty to gumption, which hasnowreachedtheaston hold murderers to the same expiation o( lO.ooo.OOO pounds yearly, whlcn, 11 tnero were no laws ana no courts, they would certainly be held by those whom they wronged, and they never ought to surrender it. James V. Clarke in New York Recorder. Curiosities About the Rhinoceros. The rhinoceros is a beast of legendary and mythical associations as well as of stern reality. In tbe mythology of all the old world he figures very conspicuously, being worshiped as a god by the early Javanese tribes and lauded as tbe builder of the earth and tbe heavens by several East African peoples. The old Jewish Talmud declares that his skin is folded as a result of having been exposed 40 days and 40 nights in tbe waters of the flood. Tbe waters of the great deluge were hot, according to Ta bari, where we read: "After that Noah sent forth the dove The dove departed and without tarrying put her feet in tbe water. Tbe waters of the flood were hot, and they scalded and pickled tbe legs of the dove. It was hot and briny, and feathers wonld not grow on her legs any more, and the skin scaled off. Now, doves which have red and featherlesa legs are of the sort which Noah sent forth." This is only cited for authority to prove why the skin of the rhinoceros lays ln folds and ridges. Certainly if the waters were hot enough to "pickle and scald" a dove's legs at the moment of contact, they would make the skin of a rhinoceros too large for him in the course of 40 days! "But," you say, "why was he exposed In the waters of tbe great deluge while all the nther beasts wereftafelThoused in the ark r" I ci,i, h. he was too lana to Im not ' .""V..: -T.7." 71" n.T',i.'.r.Z. souani iu gnaiv liinuiii. un nut ui ue was performed. fat.

I do not know how it is in London, Paris and the other great cities of Europe, but I can hardly believe that the number of per sons in any of them who speculate ' t stocks bears so large a proportion to tue entire population as it does here in New York." Men, and women, too, of all trades and oc cupations and of every degree of pecuniary ability habitually engage in operations on our Stock Kxchauce and find in them :uusement if not profit. Indeed, if the Stock brokers had for customers only in tVstors and professional speculators, half tl them and probably more could not make a living. The commissions and interest paid them by merchants, lawyers, doctors, manufacturers and retired capitalists, not to mention women, furnish the greater part of their incomes, and the very magni tude of this miscellaneous crowd, augment ed as it is by recruits from other cities of the Union, all of them being borrowers of money, renders a breakdown in the market exceedingly easy. As is well known, the amateur stock op erator expects to make his gains by selling at a higher price than he buys at. This Is the natural method of conducting business in other things, and the application of it to stock transactions follows as a matter of course. The many legends current of peo ple who hare acquired fortunes by purchas ing apparently worthless stocks at nominal prices and subsequently selling them at an enormous advance also helps to confirm amateurs in this view of the proper course to be taken, and therefore most of them are what are called "bulls." Professional stock gamblers, on the contrary, are as often "bears" as bulls that is, they sell at Roiiw prices stocks which they do not hold in the expectation of buying them back cheaper. As a rule, however, the "bulls" among the professionals also outnumber the "bears" and are said in the long run to be more suc cessful. Amateur stock gamblers, besides being for the most part bulls, have rarely enough ready cash of their own to pav for what they desire to buy, and hence what cash they have they put up as "margins" and rely on their brokers to furnish the rest. This the brokers do by borrowing from banks, trust companies and private lenders, and the air gregate of these borrowings runs up into the millions and tens of millions. What the result is when those loans arc called in we have seen. The customer cannot pro tect the broker, and so the broker to pro tect himself sells out thocustomer a stocks, and when a hundred brokers are doing the same thing at once the wonder is not that prices go down, but that they do not go down more. It is evident that the stock market, being thus, as a rule, supported by purchasers with borrowed money, is always liable to collapse whenever borrowing becomes diffi cult. It Is a pyramid balanced on its apex, ready to topple over with a slight push In ono direction or another. When this push Is strong, owing to thosudden attacks upon a few vulnerable stocks aud the contract ing of loans resulting from the apprehen sions of lenders, the overturn of the pyra mid is inevitable, aud the number of those who are caught and crushed under It is very large. Still this is a peril to which the victims voluntarily expose themselves, and they have no right to try to cast the blame of their misfortune upon others. It was old Andrew Jackson, I think, who ut tered tho sagenphorism that men whotrade upon borrowed money ought to fall, or, as a more modern authority once put It, "Son ny, don't buy what you can't pay for and don't sell what you haven't got." Mat thew Marshall in New York Sun. The Fall In the Trice of Dorax. Up to 1837 borax came to us from the East Indies, Persia and Italy, was refined in Venice and In England and imported at a cost of tl a pound, often more, Its high price offering strong temptation to adulter ation. In 18C9 the price had fallen to 40 cents a pound, and in 1879 to 11 cents, and from j that time borax has remained a cheap com modity vt'ituin t ne rcacn oi an. How has this been brought about? Out of disaster and human suffering, so sharp that the valley first found to be rich in this deposit bears yet the name, "Tho Death Valley," where the discoverers of the borax deposits found in 1807 the remains of emi grant wagons undecayed, and their tracks still plain In the hardened sand, though 80 years hod passed since hope left them, and the little company one by one lay down to die. Gold alone had been the object of the party who sought to enter California by way of Bait Lake, and who, halting In the Death Valley In Injo county, Cal., found a beat so intense that, added to the lack of water. It made further progress impossible, only a few of the stronger ones escaping to tell the tale. Later experts, sent out to report If gold with . constantly irrowinii demand.

He found it an altogether different Job than plowing the briny. His bitch was a yoke of oxen with tbe old mare on ahead, and this waa a combination that he had never bandied be fore. However, with a boy to drive, be pitched ln heroically. When tbe crash came, it was a demoralizing one. One ox got bis leg over the chain, whirled around and slipped down a side hill. The other ox flopped over its mate with a crash, and the mare waa pulled down on her haunches and sat like Towser on a doorstep. When tbe captain went to the rescue, he was kicked about 10 feet by one of tbe prostrate, struggling oxen. The panic waa complete, and the skipper flew into the bouse as rapidly as bis wind would allow. Here's how he breathlessly sized up tbe difficulty to dad: "Say, the larboard ox Is on tbe starboard side, the main brace Is bottom side up, the rigging Is all by the board, and the old mare s gone down stern foremost.
