The j cream of tartar of the market from which other ijaking powders are made has been tested by Profs. Chandler and Love, for the New York State Board c-f Health, and found to contain impurities freni three toj ninety-three per cent of its weight. It is, there fore, absolutely impossible that these powders should be pure while it is equally as impossible for the Royal, being made as it is from chemically pure materials, to be otherwise than absolutely pure. There being no inert matter in the ingredients of tho lloyal Baking Powder, higher strength is, of course, attained j and, the exact value of the materials being ascertainable to an atom, a compound is possible that will maintain its full strength until used, leave no' residuum in ' the bread, and which all chemical tests and practical ex perience; have proved to bo the perfection of leavening -This combination in the " Royal " makes it the best, and the only perfect baking powder attainable.

The can didates must swear to obey implicitly the laws of the Mormon church and all it enjoins in preference to those of the TJniced States. The penalty for breaking this oath is to have your throat cut from ear to ear and the ton gue torn out by its roots. After tak ing this oath the candidate is made to V7 draw bis hand across the throat as reminder of what may be expected in case of its violation. There is a grip which is made known to those who take the oath. It consists in placin tho thumb on the index-finger and lasping the hand around. "The second oath is the second - de gree of the Aarenio or lesser priest hood. This is the oath of chastity. The woman is to have but one husband, but the man can take as many wires as he wants, and the more wives he takes the better Mormon he i?, and the greater will be his reward hereafter. "The grip of the oath f 'chastity' consists in placing the thumb between the knuckles of the index and second fingers and clasping the hand around. The penalty for breaking this oath is to have the body sawn asunder and then thrown into the sea. The candi date is required, after taking the cath, to draw the hand sharply across the middle of the body. Then there is the first grip of the Mel chisedec, or higher order of the priest hood, of which the order hold that Christ was a member. Those who en ter this order are made to swear to avenge the deaths of Joseph Smith, the martyr, and his brother Hiram, on the American nation' and to teach their children and their children's children to do the same. "The grip consists in placing the thumb on the knucklo of the index finger, the latter being placed straight along the palm of the hand, while the lower part is clasped by the other fin gers. The penalty for breaking This oath is not a very slight one-it is dis- embowelment There is one more order, the high est order of Melchisedec. Whoever enters that order must swear absolute obedience to the Mormon priesthood. In giving the grip of this order the hands of the two persona clasp, each other with the end of tbe index finger resting on the wrist and the little fingers closely locked together. The place on the wrist where the index finger rests is supposed to correspond with the place the nails pierced when Christ was crucified, but as the nails tore out at first and the Savior had to be again fastened to tho cross you place your second finger beside the index finger on the wrist. This is called the sure sign of the nail. "These are the oaths that all who go through the endowment house must take. To lie for the church is consid eied, in the Mormon religion, not to be a sin; on the contrary, something to be highly commended." N. Y. Morning Journal. Tho Wcs t Shore for October contains a series of - magnibcrnt engravings, illustrating the varied features of Port land's Chinese quarter. In all the ef forts of the various periodicals of the United States to illustrate the Chinese and their peculiaities, nothing has ever been produced that can compare with these, the engravings comprise interior scenes in a resturant, theater, gambling house, opium den, etc., and several ex terior views, including a Chinese funer al. They are executed in three colors and are works of art An interestine article, descriptive of the Chinese as we see them here, accompanies the sketch es. The number also contains an arti cle on Mt. Adame, illustrated with a se ries of sketches illustrations of the State Fair recently held in Salem, and the new toll route across the Cascades from articles of interest and merit complete the number, the whole forming the most attractive and entertaining one yet issued. The publisher offers to send the remaining numbers for 1886 free to those who subscribe now for 1887, this will include a large engraving of Mt Hood, in eight colors, to be isued with the holiday number. Sudscriptions re ceived at this office at the publisher's rate $2.00 per year. JAr QOVLWa PXATMR. The following from an exchange is said to be the prayer of Jay Gould: Our father, who art in England, Roth childs be thy name; thy finances ' in America; thy will be done in the Uni ted States as it is in England. Give us this day our bonds in gold, but no silver; give us plenty of laboring men's votes to keep the monopolists in power and their friends in office. We know our father we have done many wrong things, we know it is wrong to refund the bonds and make them payable in coin; we know it was wrong to demon etize silver; we know it is wrong to water our railroad stocks, but thcu knowest we are above politics. It is the same to us whether the Democrats or Republicans rule, for thou knowest we are able to sway political jobs in our favor. Lead U3 not into tho way of strikers, but , deliver us from the hands of the insane Knights of Labor. Thus shall we have the kingdom, bonds luterest, power and gold till the repub lic shall end. Amen. i : Ttie Call for iUn&oriyou. Since the announcement that the California and Oregon intended to push a line tnrough Eastern Oregon people in the valley have been quite uneasy, fearing that there would be na connection made with the O. fc C. road at Ashland. Such fears are groundless. The line of the road is too important to .be abandoned. A San Francisco dispatch under date of Oct. 13th, sajs:' Notwithstanding many assertions as to a change of route of the California & Oregon, that road will be pushed as rapidly as possiblo through Northern California, to connect with the Oregon & California at Ashland. The road which is contemplated to build into Eastern Oregon will be a branch of the California Si Oregon, and will be un dertaken after the main line ia com pleted. No authoritative surveys have yet been made of the conntry, and a Southern Pacific agent leaves at the end of the week to report upon the feasibility of the proposed road. This coiToberates the published state ment of the Momtarun its last issue. The Californians are reaching out for the trade of the northwest, and the proposed branch to Eastsrn Oregon is only a link in the chain of what will ere long become a network of roads all centering in San Francisco.

An attempted escape led to the investiga tion which developed the existence of the still. One of the prisoners' is Smith, the Heard county murderer, who had in his" cell a small stove and kettle. He had been an illicit distiller in his day, and his first work on enter ing jail was to improvise a worm and still. Gathering the different articles at different times, the worm was made out of an India rubber tube. The prisoners in his cell would save up their bread until a sufficient quantity was obtained, when the stiller would make a fair article of com whiskey. The secret was well kept by the pris oners who were thus enabled to get their dram occasionally. Some people display wondeiful ingenuity for devil ishness. They become positively greedy of sin and avaracious of penalty.

Then, if the night were dark the effect was simply grand As far ahead as the eye could see the river would be a deep red from - reflec tion, forming a most beautiful picture, which, once seen, could never be for gotten. It was at that time that the expression, "Paint the town reJ," orig inated, as the old steamboatnieu in tended to convey the idea by its use that they would have a beautiful time on arrival at their destination.
