The difference of cost between a good and a poor baking pow der would not amount for a fam ily's supply to one dollar a year. The poor powder would cost many times this in doctors' bills. Royal Baking Powder may cost a little more per can, but it insures perfect, wholesome food. In fact, it is more economical in the end, because it goes further in leavening and never spoils the food. Royal Baking Powder used always in making the biscuit and cake saves both health and money. You cnnnot, if you value good health, afford to use cheap, low-grade, alum baking pow ders. They are apt to spoil the food; they do endanger the health. All physicians will tell you that alum in food is deleterious. ROYAL BAKIMO POWDER CO., NEW YORK.

Many of World's Oronteat Men Hoto Hnccuml.ed at That AKe. The nge of 87 Is a particularly fatal age. An examination of the reports of the United States government shows that more people die at that age than any other after attaining their major ity. It Is also ascertained that moro misfortunes overtake persons at that nge than at any other time In their lives, and that few fortunate events be fall them. An examination of history develops the same thing. At the age of 37 a great sorrow befell Aristotle, the death of Plato, his friend and teacher, with whom he had studied for nearly twenty years. This sorrow plainly showed Its effects upon his future life, and to it may be attributed the sad tone of his later writings. It was at the age of 37 that Lord Byron died of fever at Greece. As Lord Beaconsfleld says, he was "great er as a man than as a writer, and his loss to the world was a great blow to it." Raphael, the glory of Italian art, died at 37. He fell sick a week before his birthday of cold and fever, nnd died on that day, Good Friday. In him the world lost one of Its greatest artists. In music, like art and poetry, En gland lost her greatest composer at the age ,of 37. Purcell, the most distin guished musician Britain produced, died within a few days after attaining his 37th year. The regard In which he was held in England placed him on a par with Milton In epic poetry, with Shakspeare on the stnge, Locke In metaphysics, and Sir Isaac Newton In philosophy and mathematics. It was at the age of 37, too, that En gland lost a military genius that she regarded as of the highest rank and promise. Prince Henry of Battenburg died of fever in Asbantee in that year of his life. rascal, too, died at 37, but why seek more illustrations? These are suffi cient to illustrate the fntality of the age among geniuses. Where death failed misfortune often befell. So the nge of 37 may be regarded as the fatal age of all those after a man passes his majority. Chicago Times- Herald. A MAGNIFICENT WOMAN. Holds Up Peruna as the Ideal Rem edy For Female Catarrh.

The Napoleonic campaigns lasted ten years, the war of 1812 more than three years, the Crimean war two years, the Italian war more than one year, the civil war more than four years, the Franco-Prussian and Kusso-Turklsh wars each about one year.

Denmark has nbout one million cows. The director of the agricultural school at Dallnn, J.
