Baking Powder Conyany I have the honor to send you the following resolution adopted by the Board at ltt quarterly mooting held In Albany Feb. 11th, 1885. Reaolved, ' That the advertisement of the Royal Baking Powder Company, quoting the State Board of Health of Kew York as reoommending) through one of its analysts, its purity, eto.. is misrepresentation, In no ease doss the Stats Board of Health or its representatives, cause sueh examination to be mads with .view of reooonendiivg any particular products. The misrepresentation which called forth the resolution of the State Board of Health of New York, printed above, is in keep ing with the old tactics of the Royal Baking Powder Company. First it manufactured a Government Chemist out of whole cloth, and the garment was cut and made to fit Dr. . Henry A. Mott, and later poor Dr. Love. '.. ' ,,'' Brought to a turn in this, the same company sought to use the New York Board of Health. ' kt : ; It; did not hesitate to send broadcast; the statement that the New York Board of Health had endorsed and recommended the 1 Royal (Ammonia) Baking Powder. . ;, ,; ; -l :E : v.,'- ' ' ' 'It did not take the New York Board of Health very-2ongf to assert itself on this misrepresentation as wilt be seen-from the , foregoing letter. .. -..

And the deepening twilight shadows Art falling darkly around Lone Tree And over the salt grass meadows; No sound is beard save the quawk's harsh cry From the tall mud rooted sedges That rise where the broadening shadows lie On Lone Tree creek's dark edges. The southern landscape, stretching wide, . The night is fast invading. And the turretlfke chimneys of Sandyslde In the gathering gloom are fading. And meadow and orchard, grave and field Are Into a dark line blending. And the white church only stands revealed From the treeless height ascending. The marsh quail settle for the night ( And cease their plaintive singing. And the mackerel gulls their rapid flight To Dennis pond are winging; ? Thin wreaths of mist are creeping o'er The creeks and marshy places. And the sedge fringed line of the Basa Hole shoro - . lae eye no longer traces. The moon sails low in the western sky, By a single star attended, ; And the lighthouse opens its tireless eye . To watch till the night is ended: Across the bay the outline gray Of the coast is dimly lying Neath the crescent moon, and the summei day " . ,.' In the arms of the night is dying. i . v . Cape Cod Item. ' One Trouble. , "Too much trouble to keep children at school everyday and never miss."' This was said by a parent who objected to the emphatic requirement of teachers and school committee that children should be both punctual and constant at school. . He wanted school authorities to consult his convenience. His son must help him oc casionally on the farm, stay at home when it rained hard, or when slight indisposition overtook him; and be verily thought that both teacher and committee should consult his convenience. He is a representative father. There are many more jest like him, who have not the slightest idea that these school regula tions are to make children set a high value upon school days. To let a child stay away from school for a slight reason, or be obliged to stay at home frequently to assist on the farm or iu the shop, is just the way to teach him to undervalue school daiys. The unpunctual, iuconstaut pupils arethe one who feel that school days are days of drudgery, to be deprecated. The PC" who would have his sons and daug)j love school opportunities must see their school days are' not interrupted mall demands at borne. Absolute ne slty only should compel absence. St. P.' Pioneer-Press.. A CARGO OF COCOANUTS., - A Pretty Description of the Cooanate , Omwth Vivloadlng Vessel. ' I have found a queer crowd over at Brooklyn pier where a cargo of cocoa nuts, was being unloaded. The largest of these nuts are shipped here from Aspin wall and Cartagena, but the smaller and finer variety is brought from Cut and Porto Rico. A iteainer's cargo will count out from 50,000 to 200,000. I can never see one of those almost human faced cocoanuts that I do not live over again my idyllio wanderings in Cuba with stately Don Miguel, and hear hia pretty description, in the old , Luyano posada, of how the oocoanut propagates itself. . "These very eyes," said the Don, "are as much the outlook of the oocoanut perpetual life as men's eyes are the win dows of their souls. Through these eyes the new tree breaks to the sun. The ovule is a slender, cone shaped mass in the case at the big end of the fruit. Its sustenta tion comes from the rich, milky meat about it, from which it draws its power as it forces its way to the light through one of these strange eyes, and in what ever direction it may be pointed , it then steers straight for the sky Innumerable delicate thread like roots fill the nut and feed upon the mother heart, until the nutrition is exhausted, when the power ful shell parts like an egg shell from which struts the young chicken, and the quick soil receives the outreaching roots lovingly. Almost as soon as this tender shoot has reached the air, leaves form in diminutive represen tation of the pinnate leaves of the full grown tree, which sometimes reaches a height of seventy feet, though its myriads of roots seldom exceed the size of your lead pencil. Within four or five years fruit is borne, and is continued forty or fifty years in never failing snd increasingly bountiful supply, clustered up there at the top of the trees as if hiding beneath their plume like tufts of foliage." . . These cargoes of cocoanuts are un loaded by the same desperate class that work in the holds of banana vessels. They are passed up from below in bas kets, each containing from twenty to thirty nuts. On deck they are counted and assorted into two grades. They are then sacked on deck, 100 first grade and 125 second grade nuts to each sack, and immediately carted away. Frequently half the cargo is spoiled from heat; or in a rough voyage the terrific pounding given the nuts ruins many, and oy the time they are landed they are in a rotting condition. The purchasers of the unin jured cocoanuts get the "sick," ot 'she," nuts, as the vernacular of the trade terms them, for nothing. And in these is sometimes found the larger profit. On Washington and , Barclay streets are great - dens where they are turned into money. The sour and rotten meats are removed, dried, ground with sugar and desiccated ready for use in deadly sweet meats for your children, or consumption by yourselves in cakes and ' puddings; while the shells, shag and all. when ground are worth twelve cents per pound for mixing with your pleasant spiers. So that the oocoanut subject is one we are bound to digest, however little we (ike it, or however much the honest .manufac turers and the good doctors make out of it. Edgar L. Wakeman in Globe-Democrat. : . :: " 1 Salt Deposit in Colorado. , - In the middle of the Colorado desert there is a curious depression in the earth's surface, through which the Southern Pacific railroad runs. The lowest point is 260 feet below the sea level, and here is a great body of salt, more pure than any known to commerce, and In an abundance that may supply the world if all other resources should be exhausted. From a point on the road called India the descent is rapid to this place of salt. It was once an inland sea from which the waters have apparently passed away by evaporation, Leaving a salt' deposit that resembles' ice. Standing upon its margin, we look upon a perfectly level and white crust of salt, some thirty or forty miles in length and perhaps twenty in width. A tramway is laid over the crust to a distance of more than a mile, over which a steam dummy and train of freight cars run to the mill where the salt is ground. Beyond thu mill a smaller engine pushes its smaller cars further out upon the salt crust where the salt is gathered. The process of collecting is very simple. Laborers, provided each with a wheelbarrow, shovel and dze, go out upon the salt field, pick tiL surface to the depth of an inch or two, father bar row loads and wheel them to the cars. This salt crust varies in thickness; in some places it is but a few inches above the mud and water, and in some places nearly five feet in thickness. Liverpool salt must be kiln, dried before being ground. Nature sends this to the mill so dry that it may be ground as fine as flour. At the mill it is bagged and marked for shipment, and is ready for table or dairy use. This salt is 99 per cent, pure, and is placed upon the mar ket as "New Liverpool." Jfc-is -undoubtedly the best and purest salt in the market. The Argonaut. . A Interesting Bell. ; ' Eight years before Columbus discovered America an old Portuguese sailor named Diego Cam went cruising down the coast of West Africa until he came to a great river, on whose south bank he set up a big white stone and carved an inscription upon it celebrating bis discovery. It was the mighty Congo, and for many years the famous Pedra Padrao stood on the shore bearing silent witness to the old sailor's achievement. " Years later, when all eyes were turned to the New World, the Congo was almost forgotten, and when it next attracted notice the Pedra Padrao had disappeared. The spot where it stood has for centuries been known as Padrao Point. Three or four months ago Baron von Schwebin, the Swedish traveler, heard from some natives of a large fetich stone- hidden in . the tall jungle grass at some distance from the beach. It was only after long palavers with the chiefs that he obtained permis sion to visit the revered object. He found to his delight the veritable Pedra Padrao, its well known inscription only partially effaced. This famous monu- ment of a great discovery wiH doubtless ed hereafter as one of the most Vca of the early navigatora. Value of Amber boring the Roman Empire In such repute was amber in Rome in the time of the historian Pliny that he remarks sarcastically, "The price of a small figure in it, however diminutive, exceeds that of a living healthy slave." He observes also, "True it is that a col lar of amber beads worn about the necks of young infants is a singular preserva tive against secret poison and a counter charm for witchcraft and sorceries." He Bays further that as an article of per sonal ornamentation amber was used to produce imitations of precious Htones by artificial staining, a use to which it was peculiarly adapted owinx to its brilliant luster, combined with the ease with which it could be worked and polished. Philadelphia Times. , Serve Thing Hot. Serving things hot, too, goes a long way; if cooks could only be made to realize that hot food is very rarely criti cised they would be more careful in this respect. An experienced housekeeper said the other day, "The real reason that my things are so much liked is hot thai they are one bit nicer than any on else's, bnt I always see that each diwh is. served sc piping hot that there is no chance for much criticism of the flavor.' y: TAKEN FOR A CHANS'.
