Powders, as shown by Chemical Analysis and experiments made by Prof. Schcdlcr
A pound can of each powder wajs taken, the total leavening power or volume ia
each can calculated, the result being as indicated. This practical test for worth by
Prof. Schcdler only proves what every observant consumer of the Royal Baking
Towder knows by practical experience, that, while it costs a few cente per pound
more than ordinary kinds, it Is far more economical, and, besides, affords the advant
age of better work. A single trial of the Royal Baking Powder will convince any
fair minded person of these facts.

perforated with holes made by the roots.
This r curious .- appendage derives its
origin from the cotyledon, which in this
palm attains tho extraordinary length
of two feet, growing downward, like a
thickened end, - When perfect the
ena opens on one side, like a sheath,
out ot which rises the first BiirArlmo-
leave- of the plant, roots also being pr chattcrin
ing the end of the sheath. In time the
nutriment of the nut becomes exhaust
ed, and the"part of the cotyledon be
tween it and the young plant withers.
The latter, - however,' retains its
placental vital connection with the
sheath end of the cotyledon, which is
henceforth nourished by the plant and
increases in size with its growth, which
thus continues seated in the cradle of its
birth through life. This- formation
appears, however, to be common to the
palms, but very much more largely de
veloped in this variety. The fruit is a
large oblong nut, covered with a thin
rind. After the removal of tho outer
rind it has the appearance of two oblong
nuts firmly united together, often
weigliing thirty to forly pounds. They
are borne in bunches, each consisting
of nine or ten nuts, so that a whole
bunch will often weigh four hundred
fiounds. It takes ten vcars to ripen its
ruit, the albumen of which is similar to
that of the common cocoanut, but it is
too hard and horny to servo as food.
The shell is converted into many useful
articles by the natives. The leaves are
maaeinto hats, baskets and the like.
The demand has of late years become so
great that in order to obtain tho leaves
the trees are cut down, and as no care
is taken to form new plantations it was
at one time feared this palm- would
eventually become extinct In 186 the
leading botanists in England petitioned
the Government for its protection. By
more recent information, however, it
appears that in one island alone there
are many thousands of these palm trees.

One of the Most Precious Arts
Known ,to Blen Originated. -
There are few chapters in the history
of art of greater interest than those
which unfold to us the discovery of for
gotten treasures, and reveal the, exis
tence of works- which had long "ago
passed out of remembrance. The in
timate connection between the inven
tion of engraving and the art of the
silversmith, or rather that branch of the
silversmith's work which consists of
the chasing of an outline into a plate of
precious metal to be subsequently filled
up with dark-colored enamel, the so-
called Niello work, was never appre
ciated until, at the close of the last cen
tury, Abbi Zani found among some
old Italian engravings, in the National
Library at Paris, a print which he rec
ognized as similar in subject to the
famous Pax, decorated witli Niello
work, made by Ma so Finiguerra for
the baptistery of St. John, and paid
for, as is proved by the records, in
1452. This Pax or Assumnlion was
subsequently transferred to the cabinet
of bronzes- in the gallery of Flor
ence, where - it - is ' now pre
served, -and it was nroved. nn
comparing with it the engraving, that
the latter had actually been printed
from the silver plate, before the enamel
was fused into tho outline, prior, there
fore, to 1462. On the strength of this
discovery, Finiguerra has, ever since
uieyear icjb, been credited with the
invention of producing engravings on
paper from metal plates. There seems
little reason to doubt, as has been often
pointed out, that many silversmiths of
the hfteenth centurv mav have been in
the habit of obtaining trials of iheir
work in progress, as did Finiguerra,
perchance, when he produced bis his
torical print, representing Christ crown
ing the Virgin, from his work on the
Florentine Tax. It may indeed have
been, tosrether with the well-known
sulphur casts, a recognized method of
obtaining a record of the Niello work.

attract attention in society, The youn
men naturally and properly regard, tho
girls with attentive eyes. As a general
thing they have come to the partv for
the purpose of enjoying the society bf
young ladies, and they look around at
once to see who is present, how they arc
dressed, and to whom they had better
address themselves. , Modest and desir
able young men are a little inodest in
the society of ladies, and' are easily
caught by a familiar manner. It puts
them at their ease, and that is just what
they want most at the beginning of an

An Ancient Pavement.
: Siguor Lanciani has discovered a
beautiful mosaic pavement in the Via
Appia, Home,, four kilometers outside
the Torta Forese. It dates from about
the first century, and is the floor of an
upper room of a tomb or columbarium.
Only a few traces of the walls of this
room are left, bnt tho tomb below is in
tact The mosaic is perfect and is most
finely colored. -; It measures nine feet
by slv, and -represents tbcEapeof Pro
serpine, Pluto in a chariot drawn hv
four black horses holding rroserpinc on
his left arm, with Mercury in front lead
ing the way. Behind the chariot aro
four terrihed nymphs running in the
other direction. The edge has a very
fine border, and in each corner is a
figure representing a season of the year.
Over the border and between each nair
of seasons there arc ducks and other
water birds. The htad of winter'
is draped with a vail, and is considered
a perfect likeness of Plutarch. it. Y.
