T) OY AL unf enneuled bread, made without
. yeast, avoiding the decomposition produced

Can lie made only with Royal Baking Powder.
Receipt for Making One Loaf.

Powder, half medium-sized cold
boiled potato, and water. . SiCt to

Note. It is necessary to follow, precisely, the above directions, even to the

Perfect success can he had only with the Royal Baking Powder, because it is
the only powder in which the ingredientsare prepared so as to give that continu

The nutty flavor noticeable in this bread is due to the fact that no acid except
that derived from the grape is used in the Royal Baking Powder.

"I came very near having a duel
once," said the congressman to a group
of auditors.
"Tell ns about it," said they as one
man.
"When I was about thirty," he con
tinued, "I bnng out my shingle in a
small town in a southern state, and be
ing from the north I did not receive at
first the agreeable recognition I expect
ed. In fact there was one blatherskite
of a fellow who made himself so ob
Boiious that one day 1 slapped his jaws.
This brought all the respectable people
of the community over to my side, and I
was feeling pretty, good for three orfour
days, when the bottom was knocked out
of it all by my receiving a challenge
from Mr. Blatherskite. If there was
anything more than another that Ididn't
want to do it was to fight a duel, and 1
tried to get ont of it Bouie way, but
couldn't, and finally accepted his chal
lenge and chose doubled barreled shot
guns at ten paces. I didn't hear any
thing from my man for twenty-four
honra, and then 1 had a personal call
from him. , .
" 'I have come in,' he said after a few
preliminary remarks, 'to make a state
ment about this duel. What I've got to
aayia that shotguns are toodoggoned
mortuary for me, and if you have no ob
jections I'll apologize and call it square.'
"Then I became very brave and blus
tered some, but 1 accepted the situation
very gracefully at last, and ever after
Mr. Blatherskite was most respectful,
and stood abont as well in the town as
he ever did." Detroit Free Press.
Tit- Vanishing Couple.
A fashion .safe to stamp a young girl
in generj society as but ill equipped
with knowledge of good form is that of
"vanishing" in company with her at
tendant after a dance and remaining in
unfrequented corners until remark is
thereby created. Such is the young wo
man whose chaperon is in continual spec
ulation as to her whereabouts or else in
active exercise to Hud her. She is no
doubt often innocent of intention to of
fend, bat at large and mixed entertain
ments the better part of wisdom in a wo
man is to keep in view of her fellows.
A witty Frenchwoman, Mme. de (Jira
din, once wrote: "Amuse yourselves, 0
young beauties, hut flutter your wings
in the broad light of day. Avoid shad
ows in which suspicion hides." The
"vanishing woman" act should be lim
ited in Derformance to a nlutfnrm in f nil
view of the audience. The prompt re
turn of a young woman to the side or
vicinity of her chaperon after dancing is
not only a graceful and well bred action,
but affords an opportunity to the man,
who too often is embarrassed in this re
spect, to withdraw and fulfill some other
engagement. Ladies' Home Journal.

Bfaotfuu Bhaiu.
A practical joke was played by an ex
Confederate officer. Colonel Aylett, upon
some of his old companions in arms. He
had a company of friends at his country
place, near Richmond, and one evening a
display of fireworks was announced. To
ward the olose of the evening Colonel Ay
lett called me and two or threeother young
fellows to him and said, "1 want you to
help me fool some of the old soldiers, if
you will."
Of course we jumped at the chance, and
asked for orders.
"What I mean to do," he said, "Is to
make these veterans believe that 1 am
shooting bombsnells from my shotgun.
Here an some giant Urecrackers. Each of
you take two of them, go down into the
Held yonder, spread yourselves out in a line
about a hundred yards apart, and listen
for the bugle. I shall aim at yon in rota
tion, and as soon ar you see the Hash of the
gun, the one whose turn it Is mu.it throw
a cracker into the air as faiuh as possible,
so that it will explode before reaching the
ground."
We slipped away in the darkness, and
the guests were invited out upon the lawn
to see the colonel shoot some small bomb
shells from his gun.
The signal was given, and the gun was
fired, in a few seconds n bright Sash was
seen in the air. and a loud explosion fol
lowed. The shots were repeated until six
bad been fired.
We could hear the exclamations that fol
lowed each discharge, and In a few min
utes were back attain, mingling with the
crowd and listening to the comments of
the veterans.
"It reminded them of the war." they
said. Some of them could "distinctly trace
the flight of the shell from the instant It
left the gun until it exploded."
We begged Colonel Aylett not to unde
ceive them, but he declared that jt would
be wrong to leave them under a false im
pression. The whole affair showed wii'tt
strange pranks imagination will some
times play withsober reason. Cor. Youth's

The Resurrect Ioh Hone,
Throughout the Middle Ages it wan be
lieved that there exisw in man a bone im
ponderable, ineotriictible, incombustible,
the uecessary nucleus of the resurrection
body. Belief in a resurrection of the physi
cal body, despite St. Paul's Kpistle to the
Corinthians, bad beeu incorporated into
the formula made many centuries after bis
time, and called the Apostles' Creed, and
was held throughout Christendom, "at
ways, everywhere, and by all."
This hypothetical bone was therefore
belli in great veneration, and many anato
mist sought to discover it; butVesalius,
revealing so much else, did not find it, and
was therefore suspected of a want of proper
faith. He contented himself with saying
inac ne ten- tne question regarding the ex
istence of such a bone to the theologians.
He could not lie, he did not wish to fight
the Inquisition, and thus he fell under
suspicion.
Tbe strength of this theological point
may be judged from the fact that no less
eminent a surgeon than Biolan consulted
the executioner to find out whether, when
be burned a criminal, all tbe parts were
consumed, and only then was the answer
received which fatally undermined this
superstition. Yet in 1089 we find it still
lingering is France, creating an energetic
opposition in the church to dissection.
Kven as hit? as the Eighteenth century,
Bernoulli I having shown that the living
human body constantly undergoes a series
of changes, so that all its particles are re
newed in a given number of years, so much
111 feeling was drawn upon him, especially
from tbe theologians, who saw in this
statement danger to the doctrine of the
resurrection of tbe body, that for the sake
of peace he struck out bis argument on
this subject from his collected works.

BILL NYE AT RICHMOND.
A Few nuiarks Atwnit flonrge Wantilng

At Richmond we visited, among' other
things, the old stone house which wan owu
pied as one of the large ejection of head
quarters used by Washington. Tim bouwj is
shown us by a bright little toy. Kind of a
Virginia bright, as the tobacco dealers
would coll him, I presume. He is a line
looking young fellow, with the mirth mid
music of the African tingling in his voins,
together with tbe proud and navy blue blood
t' his other parent. The mulatto and octo
roon are very popular all through old Vir
ginia, They are very bright, sonw of them,
and what I like brat ahout them is their
utter modesty in speaking of their ancestors.
The old stone house is a queer structure
and would rent for about W m- month,
Washington did not care very much for

pleuty of them. He never wanted to be out

Ii was so in this ante. Washington was a plain

that he is gone.
In the back yard tho little boy showed uka
big tree planted by Washington himself.
Washington, Jefferson and Monroe planted
all the large trees iu Virginia, with the ex
ception or three. On tbe trunk of this tree
are two large iron staples or bandies, now al
most buried iu the trunk. . The little mulatto
boy says they were probably driven iu there
for the English to tie their horses to when
they came to Washington's headquarters to
surrender; or perhaps iu ufter years slaves
were tied to these big iron bandits wheu
they were whipped. Possibly Washington
used them iu place of a shawlstrnp in bring
ing tbe tree down to Richmond to plant it.

Libby prison is soon to be removed from
Richmond to Chicago. We visited It. I do
not know what price was paid for it, but
whatever the sum I would rather have it
than the prison. Tbe work of taking it down,
brick by brick, numbering each and putting
it back in the same place, taking out tbe
mortar, grinding it up and using It over
again, numbering each ubiutde, board and
nail hole so as to put it back exactly as it was
before, will be a gigantic one. Moreover,
tb" inner wall is covered with the names of
numberless autographs of prisoners, written
with pencil orscrutctied into tlio bard bristles
by those who are living ttxiay or gone to their
reward. It will be almost impossible to re
move the wall and preserve these names,
which really make tbe prison valuable as a
relic. Besides, there are many names cov
ered up by repeated whitewashing since the
war, and every day a new one is discovered
by carefully peeling off the thick coat of
urn" which hides the iitnpr wall.
Since the war Libby prison bos lieen used
as a respository for fertilizers. It now bos a
breath which will advertise its arrival in
Chicago without loss of time. If the people
of the north do not visit Mbhy prison It will
not be because they are ignorant of its where
abouts. It is a solemn place to visit even for a little
while, The three of iw together visited the

interest is in problems of childish psy

similar volume. During the recent
meeting of the Association of College

most interesting brandies of work taken

Why Milk l)lfl..rs In Uualltv.
Milk is more susceptible to changes
from the normal condition than any
other food product. The first class of
changes haa been brought about by the
action of breedors. By many years of
attention to breeding for fat production,
it is now possible to get milk which may
be twice as rich as the normal. On the
other hand, , other breeders have paid
especiul attention to production of large
quantity, even at the expense of quality,
until pure milk is sometimes produced
having as low as 10 per cent, of solids,
when the normal is in per cent.
A second set of causes which influence
the quality of milk grows out of the ig-
norance or carelessness of tiie proilucer
or seller. Where the persons held, the
exploded idea of tho value of one cow's
milk for children anything in the treat
ment of the cow which ullecta ita nervous
temperament may unlit it for food for
very young children. Uncleanliuess or
neglect is often a grave source of trouble
in the handling of milk, not only on ac
count of the possibilities of the addition
of visible tilth, but because milk is pe
culiarly susceptible to odor, various
kinds of bacteria and disease germs.
Epidemics of scarlet fever and typhoid
fever have been traceable to the milk
aupply, unclean cans and other utensils,
and particularly to propagating bacteria.
