All baking powders except Royal, because improperly compounded and made from inferior materials, lose their strength quickly when the can is opened for use. At subsequent bakings there will be noticed a falling off in strength. The food is heavy, and the flour, eggs and butter wasted. It is always the case that the consumer suffers in pocket, if not in health, by accepting any sub stitute for the Royal Raking Powder. The Royal is the embodiment of all the excellence that it i ; possible to attain in an absolutely pure powder. It is always strictly reliable.

If a man he in love with a woman, anti has not yet told her, a white frock made of MOft. pretty material will make him tell her aheiathe most adorable woman on earth, and for the moment it is one of those preciouu illusions that form the charm of life. Do women like these illusions? Yes! Yes! They make up for the many miser able moments of pretense; momenta when she looks the world in the face with amil ing lips and bright words. When among the gay she is seemingly the gayest and ill the while her eyes are full of unshed tears over things which she cannot alter. When she grows tired of hiding her true feelings. In concealing her loves and her hatreds In covering her sorrows, even her joys. When she tells you she really doea not care to go some place or get some particu lar t hing, and all the time her whole being Is aching to be gratified. W hen ahe looks back and regrets, looks forward and dreads. When she strives to banish thought and strangle memory, and all the while her speech is (Hied with mirth und laughter. When her existence is colorless, which she could alter but would not for some one’s sake. In such moments as these it is that appreciates these little illusions. Which please her for the moment and then pass away, yet in passing leave a trace. Bo be not sparing in words that w ill lead to them. Do not keep your precious words locked ns a miser does Ids coin; put them In circulation. Let them get worn, per haps in handling, but they w ill always he sure to bring happiness. So when you see a woman with smiling lips and sail looking eyes, praise her! That's what she wants. She is starving for it and her eyes are mutely begging for it. Am i yet she bides it all and you are so stupid you w ill not see it. Praise her even exceedingly. She will not believe you, perhaps. But she likes it and will bless you for it.—Music and D r a m a . ____________________ The value of sweet oil used iu rubbing is not generally appreciated. When a little child has taken cold and seems restless from the effects, nothing is more soothing than sweet oil rubbed into the skin, before a warm fire, with a gentle pressure of t he hand. The oil should he rubbed on the soles of the feet, down the hack and neck and around the hips, and the little one should be carefully shielded from any draft while this is done. Such a rubbing will I take the place o f the daily hath at a time , when the child is suffering from cold, and j it is not advisable to expose it any more than is necessary. If the little one has a croupy cough and shows signs of hoarseness, a thick flannel saturated with sweet oil and sprinkled ' with camphor, and heated as hot as the child can bear it, should be laid over the chest, high enough to extend around the throat. It should be covered with another flannel or a layer o f cotton hatting to re tain the heat. The heated flannel should' he changed for another as sounds it cools. By this method the cold of a little child may often be broken up and the most seri ous disease averted. The lungs und breathing tubes of a little baby are peculiarly delicate, and any child during infancy is very liable to contract serious diseases of the lungs from very slight cause. The little one is also cured by very simple remedies, and this layer of hot oil acts as pow erfully as a mustard plaster on a grown up person. A child that hits been suffering seriously with a cold one day, after careful treatment of this sort w ill often wake up the day after with hardly a suspicion of illness. There is no better laxative than sweet oil for n young child.—New York Tribune. I nt e l l c c t i i n l W om en. It I h often said that study disgusts worn (*n with domestic labors.

Schwartz in New York W orld. Out of the window of the old wooden bridge, whose hooded tunnel threw a dark bar across the moonlit mountain stream, a man and a woman stood looking into the pine clad amphitheater o f the cliffs, which lay in stillness beneath the spell o f a Sep tember night. The black hollow of the I bridge, with its one moonbeam sharp across the floor, contrasted with the aw ful splendor of the granite gorge, buttressed i and pinnacled in every rising tier, under i the flood o f ghostly light, and if the only j object o f the couple in coming here was to see the view, they were am ply repaid. From their conversation since they left the | hotel, which now lay behind them hidden j by a fringe o f the forest, it would have | been difficult to suy that this was not their only object. The small talk o f acquaint- ! anceship, friendship and even love is wlth- ! in certain limits, and among people habitu ated to each other’s conventions, practi cally indistinguishable. Frequently it is difficult to decide why the degrees should bo of so much consequence to the parties. It was in this case knowledge of the world and the good temper o f experience that kept Mrs. IIugoniu and A rth u r Kin- naird on perfectly unruffled terms with each other. The conviction that he h»ul long ago forgiven her, gra tifyin g as it once had been, was now of such long standing that it bad become confused with her earlier and less justifiable conviction that he ultim ately would forgive her. Thus secure in vindication, the lust for which the dying Kve bequeathed to all her sex, Mrs. Hugonin could without the slightest reflection upon her widowhood accept once more the companionship of a man who tolerated life »is com fortably as Arth ur Kinnaird. The imminence o f theclim ac teric which she knew to be threatening him was not to be read from his figure. His step was alert, his cheeks were bronzed, his tastes were rational, and what more could he desire? She pushed back her dark hair under its somewhat youthful cap, and, leaning her elbows on the ledge, gazed without speak ing at the haunted defile. Kinnaird gave »i little laugh behind her. “ M argaret,” he said, “ upon my word, it seems as if we were boy and g irl again.” “ W hy, particularly?” sheasked, without turning her head. “ Oh, all this summer,” he replied. She did not ask him to he more explicit. “ It is certainly an ideal place,” she said, with a half sigh. “ Y e t it is foolish to say that the beauties of nature restore one’s youth. One may feel young again, but one is not really any the less dispassionate.” “ I am not so sure o f th at,” said K in naird. " I should like to argue the point with you—if it could he argued.” “ You men are »ill alike,” said Mrs. Hugonin, with an inconsistent shrug of her shoulder. “ You give up to logic what was meant for conversation.” Kinnaird stroked his mustache thought fu lly for a moment. “ And so you think me dispassionate?” he observed. “ You?” said Mrs. Hugonin, turning with a delightfu l laugh. “ W hy, Arthur, there isn’ t a sentiment or a conviction to whose support society coul'd order you to con tribute!” “ If you mean that.,” he said, slowly, “ it is quite as I feared.” “ As you feared?” “ You st ill believe nie capable o f os much mistaken self control as I once was. And,” he added calmly, “ 1 don’t wonder.” Though there was no bitterness appar ent in his tone, Mrs. Hugonin was startled. "R e a lly, this is unlike you, Arthur,” she said gravely, but yet with »i sense of Amusement. “ You petulant with your past? You provoked with your recollec tions? Indeed, I have mistaken you.” He laughed, hut gently. “ Come,” he said, “ you have no right to he ironical. Though 1 once let you go, it was because I thought you wished to he released.” “ Upon my word, Arth ur,” said Mrs. Ilu gnnin, “ I did not know you were serious or I should qot have taken this as a joke.” “ I am entirely serious.” "R e a lly ? ” said Mrs. Hugonin, and she spoke with some irritation. “ I thought all had been forgotten and forgiven years ago.” Then she drew herself up proudly. “ Can it be that after all this time you have conceived the childish whim o f forcing me to a—to an apology?” "N o —hardly that.” “ 1 am ready to make it,” she went on. “ But if I do” ---- Kinnaird moved to the window beside her and laid »i hand on her arm. “ You »ire milch mistaken,” he said, in the undis turbed voice which so provoked her. “ You must indeed think that la m taking leave o f my years. I never had much vanity. 1 think, but what I had when 1 was younger 1 never made a pet of. Look over there at the rocks, and what do you see?” “ Rocks -and moonlight. But, Ar thur” ---- “ The rocks make me recollect,” he went on, unheeding, “ tlmt one day when you were about seventeen you and 1 climbed I a > ne mountain together. And when we reached t he ravine you insisted oil going first, and 1 let you. Now 1 did that bo cause 1 reflected that if you fell I could catch you.” “ W ell?” “ You see. that was my first mistake. I should have gone first and made you cling to my pardon me—coat tails." “ Very lik ely," said Mrs, Hugonin, hail laughing. “ But 1 can’ t think it does us any good to talk it over now.” “ A fte r that,” said Kinnaird, pursuing his subject, “ 1 acted consistently on the same mistaken theory. And when it came to the question of g iv in g you up I thought always o f you first. That was why 1 gave you up which you naturally considered a weakness.” It did not escape Mrs. Hugonin that a dormant weakness o f her own was reviving under the continued stress of thisalwurd conversation a weakness for sentiment. But it was checked by her vexation with her friend for breaking their tacit under standing and by the feeling o f half con teniptuoiis pity that stole over her as he spoke. W ere she a man. she thought, she would never confess at forty to the incompetence of twenty-five. That Kinnaird did so, but absolved her again. Also, she reflected, she had had a headache yesterday, and therefore It was very lucky this conversa tion had not been started yesterday, or she would have been much more provoked than she was now. “ I shall not stop yon,” she said in a half mischievous tone. “ Go on—I won’t be angry. You w ill perhaps admit that if there is anything rankling it Is as well for you to abuse me and have it over, even a f ter all these years, whose obituaries you have w ritten.” "M y drar. my d arlin g," he said, hie strong hand clasping her s » q u i c k l y that, involuntarily her arm struggled lik e a bird’s w ing to w rest itself away, “ it is well for me to tell the only woman I ever loved •hat 1 love her still and do not mean to let I ff go -»-¡wi " “ A rtn u rr i ! “ M argaret, I love you more than ever.” “ It is impossible!” “ I love you.” "Y o u canuot, cannot be in earnest,” she stammered. “ W hy, you have never told me.” "N e v e r—-unt’1 now,” he laughed. “I learned something when I lost you the first time—my d arlin g!” I “ This,” said Mrs. Hugonin, partially re covering herself, “ i* folly, Arthur. And it is most unfair.” “ U nfair,” he said, “ to want you for my wife? No, you mean unfair to take you off your guard. 1 w ill not quibble with your words,” he said, smiling. “ May the hour and the scene suggest to you all that they will. M ay they bring you back to—it was tw enty that you were—when it all hap pened. Margaret, when you were twenty- six, I went away from the city of all my hopes, but liefore I turned my back on it 1 did as many a refugee had done Ixffore me — I sealed up my treasures and hid them, and my store is where 1 left it. That is why I want you to marry me. A ll that 1 had looked forward to telling you—when you were tw enty—all that I had to say io you, the secret hoard that I hail l**en pil ing up for our married life, is intact, and , now I want you to share it with me.” He paused a moment and then went on: “ My dear, I have simply had to wait, that is all. But, please heaven, we w ill begin j again.” Poor Mrs. Hugonin’s breath came and | went, an unw illing messenger o f passion — or, it m ight la*, o f sentiment. “ Perhaps I was in the w rong,” she said "B u t why did not you think more o f yourself?” “ I am thinking of myself now,” said Kinnaird. Suddenly, as Mrs. Hugonin hung die trad ed and in doubt, the cliff before them rang faint and sibylline with an echo. It was the town clock of the village striking over beyond the trees; they could not hear it, but sent from ledge to ledge in the still | night air it struck silvery and remote on j the granite facade. As it sounded they I both started, h ea t its elfin suggestions, she at its material reminder. “ Good gracious!” she exclaimed, “ it is 11 o’clock!” “ It is,” said Kinnaird. “ An d we must positively go back to the hotel at once. W e are a scandal, A rth u r— and you know it, for I saw you start, too.” She began to smile. “ I)o you see nothing in the augury?” she asked. “ The augury?” “ W e are tw o old fools,” she said. “ Think of my boy iu his bed, Arthur. “ Think of my thirty year»—he quiet, if you please. I choose to be thirty for form ality’s sake. It is only the night and the moonlight When 11 o’clock strikes we recollect that we ought to be respectably at home. It is only an echo. Ah, my dear old friend, we have had our past and it is over. Yours has been unhappy and I am oh, so very sorry! But you are contented now and, what is more, you are kind and strong—it is better us it is. Take me back to the hotel—and we shall beware o f echoes in future.” “ I thought you said you had grow n old,” said Kinnaird. " I t is only youth that re fuses the echo.” And he took her in his arms and kissed her.—Philadelphia Times. K e e p in g W arm E c o n o m ic a lly . In his memoirs, Jules Simon relates how he earned his college expenses, which by the aid o f a scholarship were reduced to about fifty dollars. I never had any pocket money, but I do not remember once regretting it. Even the indispensable fifty dollars were not easy to get. Happily for me, it was customary for upper class students to tutor beginners, givin g a daily lesson for three francs a month. I hail classes from half past 6 to 8 in the morning, and from 6 to 7 in the evening. Every evening in the w inter I went to my class, lantern in hand, but poorly protected Sgainst thé rain by m j calico shirt. A fte r all I did not earn enough to pay my entire debt to my landlady. She was a kind hearted woman and urged me not to think of it, but I was terribly unhappy about it. A t commencement I took all the first prizes, and the com mittee made me a pres ent of forty dollars, so that I suddenly found m yself rich. 1 paid my debt, bought a cloth coat and a pair o f shoes and allowed myself the luxury of new text books in place o f ni y ragged secondhand ones. 1 do not count those years at Vannes among the hard ones o f my life, though certainly w e students were not too com- font able. In the schoolroom benches ran along the walls; there were no desks, and we wrote on our knees. There was no fire. Sometimes our fin gers were so cold that we could not hold our pens. Occasionally the teacher struck three blows on his desk. Then we jumped up, shouted at the top of our voices, seized each other by the hand and danced in a ring around a post. A t the end of a quar ter o f an hour three taps on the desk re called us to our work. It was an economi cal and, I believe, a healthful way of keep ing warm. S le ep in Sickness. Concerning sleep, in connection with sickness, there is a good deal o f heresy re garding the m atter among ot herwise well Informed people. “ Don’t let her sleep too long!” “ lie sure to wake him when it is time to g iv e the medicine; it w ill be a great deal better for him not to sleep too long at one tim e!” How often we have heard these words, or words to that effect, when, in fact, in nine cases out of ten and very likely in ninety nine out of a hundred, they were the exact opposite of the truth. Gen tie, restful sleep is better than any medi cine; and how often, even how almost in variably, does the “ change for the better,” for which anxious friends are w aitin g so prayerfully, come during sleep—making its first manifestation when tlie patient awakes with brightened eye, stronger voice, a faint tinge of returning health m antling the features in place of the wan hue of threatening death! In the words of Sancho Panza, we may I well say, “ Blessed In* the man who invent ed sleep!” There an», o f course, critical situations in which a troubled, imperfect sleep, may properly be broken to adminis ter medicine; but, iu these later days, phy sicians quite generally give the caution that, in ease of n»stlul sleep, the patient is not to bo awakened for the administering of medicines.
