Absolutely Pure
The official Government tests
show Royal Baking Powder to be
an absolutely pure and healthful
grape cream of tartar baking
powder, and care should be taken
' to prevent the substitution of any
other brand 1 1 its place.
With no ;ther agent can bis
cuit, cake and hot-breads be made
so pure, healthful and delicious.
Royal Baking Powder costs only a fair price per pound,
and is cheaper and better at its price than any other baking
powder in the world. It makes pure, clean, healthful food.

MEETINGS
BEGUN.
The big Riley meetings were begun
last night, a week before the arrival of
Dr. Kilov. and will bo held nightly by
the churches of the city, at the Presby
terian church, and also at tho Evangel
ical church, The meetings will be pre

ation for them, and a large attendance
is desired and needed if tho Riley meet
ings aro to be a success.

spoke earnost'y along the line of tho
power ot personal contact. A Christian
commercial traveller once was the
means of the ennvorshn of a m-.' chant,
the merchant of a colloge student and
he of another one, who was John F.
wott, now a power in the cause in the
U. S.
Rav, White, chairman of the personal
work committee, made an appeal for
personal workers for the Riley meetings,
volunteers, consistently right them
selves before asking others to be. It
is not proposed to make the armory
meeting one just to secure nominal
conversions.. PeopU who go will not
be disturbed by workers unless thoy
become genuine inquirers. It is the
desire to gut people interested who will
stay with it, not to make a big showing
of conversions, where nine? tenths back
slide within a few months.
At the meeting at tho Presbyterian
church tonight Rev. Mochol will preside.
