Strongest, Purest, Most Economical. ' 1 As to whether any of the baking powders are equal to the " Royal," the official tests clearly determine. When samples of various baking powders were purchased from the grocers, and analyzed by the United States Govern ment Chemists and the Chemists of State and City Boards of Health, the reports revealed the fact that the "Royal" contained from 28 per cent to 60 per cent more leavening strength than the others, and also that it was more per fectly combined, absolutely pure, and altogether wholesome. As most of these powders are sold to consumers at the same price as the " Royal," by the use of the Royal Baking Powderthere is an average saving of over one third, be sides the advantage of assured purity and wholesomeness of food, and of bread, bis cuit and cake made perfectly light, sweet, and palatable. The official reports also reveal the pres ence, in other powders, of alum, lime or sulphuric acid, by which their use is made a matter of grave danger to the consumer. x ; Whenever a baking powder is sold at a lower price than the "Royal" or with a gift, it is a certain indication that it is made from alum, and is to be avoided under all circumstances.

Thursday there was an affecting re union of a mother and child after a long separation. Twenty years ago, in Buf falo, resided Dir. and Mrs. White and their 5-year-old daughter. There was trouble, and husband and wife separated. White, retaining possession of the child, removed to Bedford, O. There the little one was brought up in the belief that her mother was dead. Tears passed away, and both White and his wife married again. White mar ried a Bedford woman, and there was a large family of children. Mrs. White became the wife of a wealthy business man. The years brought no little ones, and the mother's heart yearned after her daughter Lillie. She once heard that White had moved to Bedford, 'and after that there were only vague and indefi nite rumors. After a while she heard that her daughter was dead and she gave j' pe. Her husband started in busi in Kansas City, Mo. His prospects were flattering and the pair moved there. A short time ago a lady artist engaged in Kansas City met the former Mrs. White. Learning that the artist had resided in Bedford, the mother questioned her and found that her former husband still lived there. Much to her joy she learned that her daughter was not dead, but had grown to be a handsome young woman, had married and lived in Cleveland. Her husband shortly afterward was called to the east on business, and, before going, promised to look up the daughter. Arriving in this city he easily found her, and , telegraphed to the anxiously waiting mother in Kansas City, "Lilly is here." That same afternoon the moth er started for Cleveland. She was driven straight to the residence of Joseph Cow en, an employe of the Champion Spring Bed company. He is the husband of the long lost daughter, and they live in Brooklyn village. A surprise here await ed the visitor in the shape of a chubby 2-weeks-bld baby boy, who was held np to make the acquaintance of grandma. Cleveland Leader. . Gallantry of the Sioux. A correspondent who has just returned from Pine Ridge agency tells a story of the visiting Sioux Indians who are now in Washington. "Beading of the reception the Indians received in church Sunday, and the fact that they attended the theatre Monday evening, recalls a funny incident that happened when they were in Chicago en route to Washington. The manager who has charge of the visiting Indians thought he would amuse them by taking them to the theatre in the evening. He never for a moment thought that tragedy would rouse the warlike nature ' of which the Sioux is. so abundantly en dowed. Well, he got them into several boxes all right, and everything went well until the third act. "The play was a heavy tragedy, and in this act the heroine was to be killed. The minute the villain attempted to strike the woman with a knife three of the Sioux rose from their seats and act ually prepared to leap over the boxes onto th stage for the purpose of rescu ing the heroine. The theatre was soon in an uproar, and it was only by remov ing the three refractory Indians from the theatre that the actors could proceed. That also explains why they were taken to see a light opera in Washington. " Philadelphia Press. Russia's Watchful Eye. There was a meeting of representative railroad men and steamship managers in St Petersburg to discuss the feasibility of introducing "round trip" tickets in the interior of Russia. . Such tickets would be of great benefit to those who have business in the Volga district, and make short trips from one city to an other by the steamers on that river, and also to excursionists along the railroad lines. But this measure is discounte nanced bythe police authorities. At present there is an officer stationed by every ticket office who may examine the passports of the travelers, without whose permission no ticket can be sold. But if round trip tickets should be is sued, the holder of a return ticket to any place may sell it to another person, and the police would be unable to keep s eye on the traveling public Exchange. THE LONDON POLICE. WHAT ASSISTANT DISTRICT AT TORNEY WELLMAN OBSERVED. The Force in the British Capital Some thing to Be Proud Of Free from Po litical "PulUJ Promotion Dependent Wholly Upon Merit. During my visit to London I Bpent con siderable time investigating the police force of that city. The laistory of the London police has yet to be written, and a very curious record indeed would be that of the successive changes, always in the direction of im provement, which have been made in the constitution, the discipline and the dress of the metropolitan and city police since the force, established by act 10 of George IV, commenced duty on Sept. 29, 1839. Although the blundering and inefficient force of police constables had by this time discarded their swallow tailed coats and their stovepipe hats, the city authorities, excepting for a very Bhort period in 1848, hesitated to provide the force with any weapon whatsoever excepting a lantern and a rattle. Even as late as 1860 the metropolitan police force numbered only 5,300 consta bles, although the city had over 3,000,000 inhabitants. At present its total strength is 14,081, maintained at a cost of a little over 41,000,000 (13,000,000). This civilian army was practically founded by the sec ond Sir Robert Peel while borne secretary, and was bitterly opposed in the outset by a large section of the public press. The London police force, once a national scan dal, has now become, however, the par donable pride of every inhabitant of the city. : ' At the head of this army of 14,000 police is a sinle commissioner called the chief commissioner of police. He is appointed by the queen and holds his office for life. A general in the army of twenty years' standing is always selected for the place some soldier who has distinguished, him self for his executive ability. The present chief commissioner is Sir Edward Brad ford, K. C. B.. K. C. & T., who organized the king of Persia's cavalry some years ago. His salary is 2,500 or $13,500. This commissioner has the appointment of three assistant commissioners at a salary of 1,500 (17,500) and allowances of about 500 a year extra. These assistants are chosen from the ranks of barristers who have distinguished themselves for upward of twelve years in the criminal courts. Next in rank come four chief constables, who likewise must be chosen from the list of army officers in good standing. There is strictly no politics in any of these appointments, and they are all for life or during good behavior, it would seem fitting to put an experienced army officer at the head of such a body of men. and especially fitting to join with him as his assistants three experienced criminal lawyers. In addition to the 14,000 uniformed police there are GOO detectives and 500 mounted police. The department breed all their own horses, and they board la, barracks all bachelors belonging to the force at one shilling a week. The pay of an ordinary constable is from thirty to thirty-six shillings (t?.50 to (9) a week. The detectives or inspectors receive 185 (1925) a year, and 5 ($25) advance for each year of service for ten years and then 10 advance for the next fifteen years. Aft er twenty-five year' service they are pen sioned for life on two-thirds pay. The ser geants of police receive forty-five shillings ($11.25) a week and are only chosen rom the ranks of constables. Everyone con nected with the force, excepting the com missioner and his assistants and the four chief constables, must rise in the service from the lowest ranks. No ordinary policeman is allowed to carry a revolver excepting in the suburbs, where revolvers are handed to the men when going out on duty and are inspected each morning to see if any shot has been fired. Each officer must likewise report each use of his stick or truncheon. There is almost no drunkenness found among the force. Most cf the men are recruits from the country and are farmers' sons. Any policeman found intoxicated off serv ice is put back from two to three years In rank and pay, and if found drunk while on service is discharged at once. , Any one visiting London for the first time is stunned on week days by the tour- billion of movement in its streets and the constant eddies at all the great crossings in the whirlpool of its business life such as no other city in the world can show. It is estimated that over 20,000 vehicles pass the Bank of England each day. Such a thing as a block or stoppage in the stream of ve hicles for more than a moment is never al lowed to occur, thanks to the skillful man agement of the police under the present perfect system. There is an officer at nearly every street corner, and any driver or cabman who advances a yard beyond the upraised hand of the officer may expect to have bis number taken and is certain to have a two pound fine to pay. If he drives on his license is forfeited. This is not a rule simply, for the law is invariably en forced, and the consequence is absolute order and freedom from blocks. The police seldom use force. It is not necessary in a city where the laws are en forced with unfailing promptness and cer tainty. In consequence perhaps the most unruly class of. men in the world the London cabbies stand in absolute awe of the police. This feeling is shared equally by all tradespeople. I was assured on the best authority that there was not a dis orderly house or policy shop in the en tire city of London with its C90 square miles and its streets and roads measuring 6,600 miles in aggregate length and over 5,000,000 inhabitants. It is com monly said of London that there are more Scotchmen there than in Edinburgh, more Irish than in Dublin, more Jews than in Palestine and more Roman Catholics than in Rome. Nothing is allowed to be sold in the way of either food or drink after 12 o'clock, and every public restaurant or bar must be closed by 13:30. This rule is kept to the very minute, or the license is forfeited. Nobody once convicted of even a misde meanor can obtain a license for a bar or public bouse in London. The fidelity and bravery of the London police were well shown in 1884 when a couple of officers on duty at the parlia mentary building discovered a lighted dynamite cartridge in the hallway directly under the hall in which the house of com mons was sitting at the time. The two men seized the cartridge together and ran with it burning in their hands out into the open courtyard, where it exploded. Both nien are crippes for life. Both are deaf and blind, and one has lost his reason. ' They were at once promoted to the rank of ser geants and pensioned for life. One was summoned to Windsor castle, where the queen herself decorated him with the Al bert medal. The officer who was confined to the hospital was then visited by the queen in person, who presented Mm with the Albert medaL Francis L. Wellman in New York Herald. . Dangerous Champagne. The well known epicurean taste of the French people seems to have driven some of them to their wits' end in order to satisfy the appetite in an inexpensive manner. In 1803 a Frenchman invented and obtained ay,patent on a process for making sparkling wine or champagne at a price bringing it within the reach of all. His process is to take a bottle of ordinary still w ine and pour into it a certain quantity of "Dutch bronie powder." The waiter then is instructed to shake the bottle violently before serv ing it to the customer. This, the in ventor Bays, "will disturb the brilliant particles of powder, causing them to cir culate through the wine, giving it the appearance of a high grade sparkling wine." Dutch bronze is chemically known as bimuriate of stannan, and ia poisonous. It is that substance in mauve ink which so quickly eats away a steel pen. New York News. Pure Food In Congress. , The act of Congress authorising the examination ot the baking powders has resulted in a most unprecedented com pliment to the Royal Baking Powder. The tests were made in the government laboratory at Washington, and the offi cial report shows that the Royal is su perior to all others in leavening strength being over 30 per cent, above the av erase. The report also shows the parity of the Royal Powder and the wholesome ness of its ingredients. This is nrobablv the blithest compli ment of an official character ever paid to a proprietary article, though no more than the great army of baking powder consumers would expect in behalf of their old friend and favorite. The result of the official examination. as thus determined, will, of coarse, make the " Royal " the standard lor govern ment purchases. A Healthy Locution.

IMITATORS AND IMPOSTORS. The unequaled success of Allcock'i Po bodb Plahtkbs as an' external remedy has induced unscrupulous parties to offer imi tations, which they endeavor to sell on the reputation of Allcock's. It is an absurdity to speak of them in the same category as the genuine porous plaster. Their preten sions are unfounded, their vaunted merit unsupported by facts, their alleged superi ority to or equality with Allcock's a false pretense. The ablest medical nractitioners and chemists and thousands of grateful patients unite in declaring Allcock's Pobous I'las- tbbs the best external remeay ever pro duced. Beware of imitations, and do not be de ceived by misrepresentation. Ask for All cock's, and let no solicitation or explana tion induce you to accept a substitute.
