Be on your Guard.
If some grocers urge another baking
powder upon you in place of the "Royal,"
it is because of the greater profit upon it
This of itself is evidence of the supe
riority 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, though selling for the same, give
less value to the consumer.
To insure the finest cake, the most
wholesome food, be sure that no substi
tute for Royal Baking Powder is accepted
by you. .
Nothing can be substituted for
the Royal Baking Powder
and give as good results.
INCIDENTS OF ARMY LIFE.
Unpleasant Social Experience Sometime
Experienced In Posts and Garrlaotu.
Notwithstanding the fact that the offi-
cnrs of the American army are the very
piuK or courtesy, they sometimes in
post and garrison life have very unpleas
ant social experiences. An officer in I
garrison is assigned quarters not accord-
ing to the necessities of his family, hut
in accordance with his rank.
It therefore comes out quite frequent
ly when a new officer is sent to a post
mat there are many changes of quar
ters, so as to make room for him. When
a new major arrives, for instance, he
selects the quarters that suit him best,
it matters not who ocenpies them, pro
vided the ocenpant is below him in
rank. He can turn out a major lower
on the list or any captain or lieutenant.
r.?'l each of these when dispossessed can
choose for himself what quarters suit
mm nest if occupied by an inferior in
rank. One move, therefore, may make
a dozen others. The women of the ar
my, it is said, are greater sticklers for
their rights than the men. But the men
themselves, while preserving all the
forms of highest courtesy, sometimes
push their authority to the fullest limit
For instance, at a two company post
in the west some years ago a captain of
infantry was in command, as his com
mission was of older date than that of
the captain of cavalry also there. The
two captains were mntnally antipathic
In their official intercourse all the forms
were observed, but still it was plain to
all that they cordially disliked each
other. One day the senior captain or
dered the junior to take a file of men to
the forest and cut the firewood needed
for the winter. This duty ordinarily
would have been given to a sergeant or
corporal. The cavalry captain had no
recourse and was obliged to obey. Just
as he got outside the post the mail,
which came only now and then at in
tervals of a week or so, arrived, and
the cavalryman stopped for letters. One
' of these brought him his commission
as major. He at once issued an order
taking commend of the post and then
another order assigning the wood chop
ping duty to the late commandant

Good When Ton Find It.
Judge Caldwell of North Carolina
was slow to see the point of a joke. On
trying a case on one occasion the solic
itor called in vain for a witness named
Sarah Mooney. As she did not answer
he informed the court that he could
not proceed "without ceremony. " The
bar laughed, but the judge looked puz
zled. Some weeks after that when at
homo the point dawned on him, and he
broke into a loud laugh. Upon his wife
inquiring the cause of his merriment
he explained that the solicitor had call
ed Sallie Mooney, and when she did
not answer he had said he could not
procsed without ceremony. The wife
said she did not see the point The
judge said it had taken him three weeks
to find it, but when she did see it it
would be very funny. Green Bag.
A Bank
Failure.
AN INVESTIGATION
DEHANDED.
A general banking business is done by
the human system, because the blood de
posits in its vaults whatever wealth we may
gain from day to day. This wealth is laid
up against "a rainy day " as a reserve fund
we're in a condition of healthy prosperity
If we have laid away sufficient capital to
draw upon in the hour of our greatest need.
. There is danger in getting thin, because it's
a sign of letting down in health. To gain
in blood is nearly always to gain in whole
some flesh. The odds are in favor of the
germs of consumption, grip, or pneumonia,
if our liver be inactive and our blood im
pure, or if our flesh be reduced below a
healthy standard. What is required is an
increase in aux germ-fighting strength. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery enriches
the blood and makes it wholesome, stops
the waste of tissue and at the same time
builds up the strength. A medicine which
will rid the blood of its poisons, cleanse and
invigorate the great organs of the body,
vitalize the system, thrill the whole being
with new energy and make permanent work
of it, is surely a remedy of great value. But
when we make a positive statement that 98
per cent, of all cases of consumption can, if
taken in the early stages of the disease, be
CURED with the ' Discovery," it seems like
a bold assertion. All Dr. Pierce asks is that
you make a thorough investigation and
satisfy yourself of the truth of his assertion.

PAINTINGS OF CHRIST.
The Face as Depicted by Some of the Mora
Modern Artist.
Among the more modern paintings
representing the Saviour is that by Cor
reggio, painted in the sixteenth cen
tury. It. represents Christ with short
curly beard, with long waving hair, sur
mounted by a crown of thorns. There
is a look of mute anguish on his face
that is heartrending, but nevertheless
the face is rather weak.
The most terrible likeness is that
painted at about the same time as that
of Correggio by Albert Durer. It rep
resents a powerful face, with a Grecian
cast of countenance, with eyes distorted
by pain and anguish, and even a trifle
of anger is apparent
The Christ of Raphael, a contempo
rary of both the above, is an essentially
Italian work, the face being Italian,
although the model for the forehead and
upper face was evidently a woman.
The Rembrandt Christ of the seventeenth
century wears an unpleasant expression
about the month and has too long a face
to be perfect, yet it is one of the great
artist's last efforts.
Perhaps the most fantastio picture of
Christ is that painted in the fifteenth
century by Leonardo da Vinci. It rep
resents the Saviour looking over his
shoulder, a cynical smile on his face.
A hand may be seen in his hair, evi
dently drawing the head to one side. It
cannot compare in beauty, however, to
the same artist's face of Christ in the
famous "Lord's Supper."
The noblest and the grandest is tha
by Titian, painted in the sixteenth cen
tury. It is a face of resignation, of
firmness strong, yet mild; mild, yet
strong. Titian was 90 years old when
he painted this, and it is considered as
one of his masterpieces.
Of the absolutely modern paintings
of Christ those of Munkaczy, Ary Shef
fer and Gabriol Marx rank highest. Still
every one of these is an imaginary pro
duction, and the Saviour will still con
tinue to be the "Man of Mysterv."-
Edgar Mels in Home and Country.
The First Fosts.
The first posts are said to have originated
in tne regular couriers established by Cy
rus about 650 a. v., who erected post
houses throughout the kingdom of Persia.
Augustus was the first to introduce this
institution among the Romans. 81 B. C.
and he was imitated by Charlemagne about
tw a. u. Liouis JU was the first sovereign
to establish posthouses in France owing to
his eagerness for news, and they were also
tne nrst institution 01 this nature in Eu
rope. This was in 1470, or about 2,000
years atter tney were started in Persia.
In England in the reign of Edward IV
(1481) riders on post horses went stages of
the distance of 20 miles from each other in
order to procure the king the earliest intel
ligence of the events that passed in the
course of the war that had arisen with the
Scots. A proclamation was issued by
Charles I in 1031 that "whereas to this time
there hath been no certain intercourse be
tween the kingdoms of England and Scot
land, the king now commands his postmas
ter of England for foreign parts to settle a
running post or two between Edinburgh
and London to go thither and come back
again in six days." Chambers' Journal.
Breaking Dp the German Army.
A story Is told of a certain young New
York woman who was recently abroad.
While walking out in Dresden one day
the stolidity of the soldier sentinels pacing
back and forth like automata attracted her
notice. A sudden impulse seized her to
test this cast iron rigidity, and waiting till
one had passed she slipped into his little
sentry box. When he reached it on his re
turn, marching with measured precision.
she suddenly jumped out before him, cry
ing "Bool" in his very face.
'ihe soldier was completely unset at thh
Unexpected performance and actually
dropped his musket and ran away, while
tne young woman, having thus routed a
portion of the German army, walked on
and demurely rejoined her friends. The
incident, it is said, came to the ears of the
emperor himself, who expressed a wish to
meet this extraordinary young woman, but
Miss admitted that her desire did not
equal his, as she was not sure in quite what
ugnt tier jesting impulse would be official
ly regarded. --JNew York Times.
A DOUBLE BACK-SOMERSAULT,
A Baking Powder Company Was Too
Hasty In Its Claims.
A Chicago baking powder concern, ad
vertising far and near that its product
received the highest award for strength,
purity and excellence at the Chicago
World's Fair, has been obliged to take a
double somersault backward. Mr. John
Boyd Thatcher, chairman of the Agri
cultural Awards, has written a letter to
the said Chicago concern showing it
that its advertising statements, speaking
mildly, are incorrect, while the Judge of
Awards on Raking Powders sends an
other in which he brands the claim ot
the pretenders as false, in the most un
mistakable language. Since, comes the
second exposure to the effect that this
baking powder, for which these spurious
claims have been made, was actually
found by the Exposition chemists who
analysed it, to contain ammonia 1 Is
this the reason that the comminainnnra
declined to give it an award for parity
and wholesomeness?
WELL-KNOWN PEOPLE
PROMINENT PERSONAGES FROM
FAR AND NEAR.
People Who Have Gained Distinction
In Their Particular Sphere In Lire,
Both In ThU Country aud Abroad
Kt. Mary Baker Kddy.
Rev. Mary Baker Eddy is the founder
nd head of the Christian Science
Church, which denomination has just
erected a magnificent structure in Bos
ton, costing over 200,000. The Boston
church was organized by Mrs. Eddy,
and the first meeting held on April 19,
1879. Mrs. Kddy was born in Concord,
N. H., in 1825. She married Colonel
Grover at an early age, but he lived
only one year. In 1806 she met with
severe accident and her case was pro
nounced hopeless by the physicians.
One Sunday morning, when her death
was hourly expected, she suddenly be
came aware of angelic presence and min
istration, requested those with her to
withdraw, but soon to their bewilder
ment, she walked into the adjoining
room. Her friends thought that she
had died and that they saw her appari
tion, since that time sue has been i
believer in the principle of divine heal
ing, which she has preached lor nine
teen years. In 1887 she married Dr,
Asa Gilbert Eddy.
A. C. Williston.
Archibald Williston, of Cumberland,
Md., is a very popular man in cycling
circles. He was a leading candidate for
president of the League of American
Wheelmen, the new officers of which
were elecb d by the national assembly
held in New York City February 18.
Mr. Williston first came into promi
nence by a display of his ability in the
counsels of the Maryland division. It
did not take long for a man of his at
tainments to get into the national body,
and for five years past he has been one
of the most prominent in league work.
He was last year chosen first vice-president.
King George.
With the rumors of a rebellion and
insurrection in Greece attention is di
rected to the ruler of the country. King
George, the present ruler, is the second
son of the King of Denmark, and was
born December 24. 1855. He in a brother
of the Princess of Wales and uncle of
the tzar of Kusfia. Otho I., the late
King ot Greece, abdicated in 1803, and
the throne was then tendered by a ma
jority of the Greek people to Prince Al
bert of England, but the English people
refused to accent the the nnminolinn
It was next offered to Duke Earnest, of
nax-Lonurif-uotna, and declined. Then
it was offered to William Ferdinand
Adolphus George, who accepted it, and
nas since reigned as King George I. He
was married at St. Petersburg to Prin.
cess Olga, daughter of the Grand Duke
Constantine, on October 27, 1807. His
reign has been mild, and he has euc-
eetled to some extent in winnino tho
favor of the people.
Toad Superstitions.
Superstitions as to toads having been
early inculcated, it has been exceeding
ly difficult to got rid of them. One rem
nant of this auciont credulity still ex
ists. It is iu regard to the absolute im
perishable character of the toad. There
are well educated Americans who be
lieve that a toad hops out alive from a
slab of stone, though he has been im
prisoned there for several millions of
years. We give in briof Dr. Buckland's
experiments with toads in 1825. He
took 13 toads and had the toads put in
12 cells cut in sandstone, and over these
he put plates of glass. They were bur
ied in a garden for over a year. When
exhumed, they were all dead. Then
some were put in porous sandstono, and
at the end of a year a few were found
"greatly emaciated. " When buried for
another year, they all died. Toads were
taolosed in wood, and they all died.
The conclusion is that, deprived of at
mosphere or without food, toads must
die. If a toad as a tadpole could have
entered a crevice iu a rock, it might
have grown, but would have died in
time for want of air and food. This
toad nonseuse is so irradicable that it is
supposable it never can be dissipated,-
THK WRONG WAT.
There is a way of looking at a thing that
is curious and wrong. The old ailuae,
"proof of the pudding is in eating it," la
sound sense. Ami another "never con
demn before tri .1." In the treatment of
anything, treat it in good faith, io when
infirmities Beset lis, beset them with good
will and force. Thousands have in this
way overcome the worst tortus of rheuma
tism by using St. Jacobs Oil. Never shrink
trom what is known to be by thousands a
positive cure fur this dread complaint, and
that is the t hing to remove the trouble and
solve the doubt.
What Aluminium Is.
There are many misconceptions about
aluminium that are widespread and
which it seems "difficult to correct in
the public mind. Aluminium is not,
section for section, a very strong metal.
It is only one-half as strong as wrought
iron. It litis a very low elastic limit It
is not rigid, but beuds under a trans
verse strain readily. It is in its alloys
that its utility commences to appear.
With 8 to 13 per cent of copper or alu

An Eager and a Nipping Wind,
A continuous down pour of rain, inclem
ent weather, generally in winter and
spring, are unfavorable to all classes ot in
valids. But warmth and activity inlused
into the circulation counteracts these in
fluences and interpose a defense against
them. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, most
thorough and effective of stomachics aud
tonics, not only enriches the blond, but
accelerates its circulation. For a chill, or

and kidney complaint, particularly preva

Oou'l Encourage Inhuman Tricks,
Let the boy fish, boat, canon, hwIid
and tramp through the woods on explor
ing trips to his heart's content, do with
him if possible ami encourage healthful
exercise and observation as much as dor.
ible, but don't teaoh hlra, nor allow hint
to acquire, unlawful and inhuman tricks.
Upon nearly every one of furred or feuth-
ered things seen during June ami July
dependa a family of holpless liven, which
may be doomed to the miseries of slow
starvation by one thoughtless shot.
The boy with the firearm goes a bird
nd aays, "Watch me plug him," ami if
the aim prove true the boy thinks he has
done something clever, and most likely
his fond father tells him that he bus so
done. Ia reality he has broken a law
and probably sounded the doom of half
a dozen wretched fledglings hidden in a
nest near by. Men will cheerfully give
op a handful of dollars for the privilive
of drinking in the wondrous molodv
from the trained throat of a Putti and
go into raptures over the sweetness and
the elevating influence of perfect mnaio,
yet the same men will blithely murder a
poor little feathered Patti and still for
ever life and sung such as no Putti ever
anpirod to in fine, destroy what the con
centrated brains and skill of tlio world
cannot rapture.
And for what tmrposo? Simply to
gratify a tiute for the shambles, or to
show off to prove that an eye can
glance along a bit of Iron or steel truly
enough to insure the planting of a nun
get of lead within the limit of a poor,
unsuspecting creature's body to kill a
beautiful, happy bird. Outing.
The Appetite of the Ostrich.
It la nevor safe to dron any article
when walking near a covey of ostriches.
The ostrich will eat anything, seeming
apparently to have no sense of tasto. A
story is told of a yonng girl who was
visiting a coo where a large ostrich
matched her kid gloves, which were
rolled into a ball, and ate them. The
next day the girl returned with the fam
ily contribution of a half dozen pairs of
gloves, all of which were aa readily
wallowed.- Detroit Free Press.
