Be on your Guard. If some grocers urge another baking powder upon you in place of the " Royal," it is because of the greater profit upon it. This of itself is evidence of the supe riority of the "Royal.". To give greater profit the other must be a lower cost, powder, and to cost less it must be made with cheaper and inferior materials, and thus, though selling for the same, give less value to the consumer. To insure the finest cake, the most wholesome food, be sure that no substi tute for Royal Baking Powder is accepted by you. , ' ' Nothing can be substituted for i the Royal Baking Powder and give as good results.

"Have you ever wondered just what you would do if, without a word of warning, you were placed in a situation where you bad the choice of risking your own life sud denly presented to you?" asked Gadderly at the club the other night. Several mem bers declared they had not. "I recall a vivid Instance of the kind," said Gadderly as he ordered another bottle and braced himselt back in his chair. "It bad often been a matter of speculation with me as to just what my action would be in a moment of extreme peril, and I am glad to lay, gentlemen, that when the time did come I was not unequal to the occasion." There was a subdued murmur of sup pressed interest. . Some time ago," he continued, "my health was so poor that upon the advice of my physician I engaged passage in a schoon er bound for Florida. The captain had on board his little daughter, a sweet child of 13 years. One balmy day after we bad been out a week I was slowly pacing the deck, and I may say that it was a particularly memorable occasion for me, that being the first day I was strong enough to walk, when I heard a sudden splash, and looking up hastily I discovered that the little girl had fallen overboard. Gentlemen, you can im agine my feelings." Several members nodded. "Here was the opportunity of my life. There was a light breeze, and the schooner was moving lazily through the water. I rushed to the railing. For a brief instant I caught a glimpse of the terror stricken face of my little companion, and then she sank. In that brief moment, gentlemen, I have no hesitation in saying that I lived a lifetime. And yet I say it calmly and dispassionate ly the determination to save that little girl's life never once was shaken. Before any one on deck knew what I was about I sprang to the railing and threw" "Excuse me a moment," interrupted his friend Gllback. "Old man, you know you can't swim." "I know it," quietly replied Gadderly. "And you said," persisted Gil back, "that you were so weak that you could scarcely walk?" "I did," responded Gadderly. "Then how could you throw yourself overboard and save that child's lifef" tri umphantly questioned Gilback. "My dear fellow," said Gadderly, "you misunderstood me entirely. I did not say that I jumped overboard. The captain had already done that." "Then what did you do?" breathlessly In quired bis audience. "As I was about to remark when I was Interrupted," replied Gadderly, gracefully filling his glass, "I sprang to the railing and threw him a life preserver." New York World. Two Standards. Jokes of a "practical" order are usually dangerous in one way or another, but a story is told of one harmless joke which il lustrated the power of imagination in an amusing way some years ago. At the time when most of the North river sloops came in at Coenties slip the Levant, a packet from Fishkill, anchored off the Battery to wait for a change of tide. A passenger who had been for the first time in his life on a sailing vessel, and who had been anxiously begging to steer the craft, not noticing that the vessel was at anchor, was told at last that he might take the helm. He obeyed the summons with alacrity and listened to the captain's cautions in re gard to keeping clear of other vessels, etc., and then the captain went below. The tide was rushing by at a great rate, and the amateur helmsman felt much grati fied with the progress his craft was making as he looked down at the water. - In time, however, an investigation of the surrounding landscape led to a slight feel ing of dissatisfaction on his part, which steadily increased as time went on. At last the captain appeared again and inquired gravely how be was getting on. "Well," replied the amateur, with a du bious smile, "I appear to be gettin on first rate by water, but plaguy slow by land, if I'm any judge, captain." Youth's Com panion. Only a Flight. I'd like to be a bleak stone wall That winds near country lanes, And let the leaves each autumn fall Around my hard remains. I'd like to be a lofty tree Upon a mountain top. And let the clouds, so wild and free, Around me flop and flop. I'd like to be an ocean bold, i Where fleets of ships might float, And let the sands of lands untold Sift down my mammoth throat. I'd like to be a comet swift. With heart of fire, to throb In endless space, and drift and drift And with the stars hobnob. I'd like- but, hold! It's but a sham A leaf from fancy's shores. I'd like to be Just what I am The fellow sue adores. Detroit Free Press t AT ANTWERP'S FAIR. AMERICA WELL REPRESENTED IN THE BELGIAN EXPOSITION, ' It Will Be Pre-eminently a Business Exhi bition and Offers Great Inducements to Our Merchants and Manufacturers Ant werp's Advantages as a Market. Belgium's international exposition, which open- at Antwerp on May 6, willba more Important, interesting and attractive to Americans than any other of the numer ous European exhibitions of this year, though we shall probably be adequately represented at all of them in the matter of exhibits as well aa by the number of our people in attendance. Antwerp's exhibi tion will be by far the largest of the lot and is expected to surpass the famous Paris exposition and all others of recent years, excepting only that of last year at Chicago. It will be pre-eminently a business fair. and will probably afford more profitable opportunities to our merchants and man ufacturers than were offered even at the Columbian exposition. ' The advantages of Antwerp as a great exchange market for American products can hardly be overestimated. It is the great commercial emporium for all north western Europe, and as its neutrality is guaranteed by the powers the port is safe from blockade In case of war, a fact which gives It an advantage over any port in France or Germany as a place for the es tablishment of branches of foreign mer cantile houses. .The foreign trade of the city has increased enormously since the Scheldt was opened to commerce by the THE AMERICAN BUILDING. treaty of Paris in 1839, and probably no other city of the world has so many foreign establishments, if the various colonial branches in London and Liverpool be ex cepted. To tho scholar, the artist and the ordi nary sightseeing tourist Antwerp is no less interesting than to the merchant. The archaeologist must feel an interest in the city which had its beginning on the banks of the Scheldt two centuries before the Trojan war. The historical student must pay his respects to the city so closely associated with Godfrey of Boulogne, Philip II, William of Orange and the great struggle against Spanish domina tion, i The artist must feel a reverence for the city which cradled Rubens, Vandyke, the two Teniers, Jordaens, Frans Floris and Quentin Matsys and still guards their masterpieces as her most precious posses sions. The ordinary tourist will feel or affect an interest in the famous old cathedral, with its 400 foot tower and Its great altar' piece by Rubens, "The Descent From the Cross," in the great artist's equally fa mous "Holy Family, " which hangs In the Church of St. Jacques, or In some one or all of the hundred other examples of his finest productions which the city has to show, or perhaps they will grow enthusi astic over the celebrated well cover of deli cate iron tracery forged by Quentin Matsys or over his pictures or those of some of the other great lights of the artistic world They will find much to interest them, too. In the Plantin museum, which includes the famous sixteenth century printing of fice of Christopher Plantin, where tho great Polyglot Biblo was printed, besides a priceless collection of books, pictures, manuscripts, etc. The exposition is located in the southern part of the city in a park covering over 200 acres, fronting on the Scheldt. Its mag nitude can best be appreciated from a few figures. The Hall of Industries is 1,750 feet long by 1,400 feet wide. The Electric ity building measures 885 by 268 feet and Machinery hall 787 by 262. The art exhibit occupies a building 436 by 233 feet, and Festival hall covers a space 347 feet by 163. Tho main buildings are all constructed of iron and steel and roofed with zinc and cover collectively 1,080,000 square feet. One of the most beautiful pieces of archi tecture on the grounds is the American building," which faces the grand entrance and occupies the most prominent site ac corded to any foreign nationality. It meas ures 240 feet by 150 and is of the modern renaissance architecture. It is approached by a broad marble staircase, and the main court Is open to the dome and surrounded by a gallery containing 18 exhibition rooms for the various states. The largest of these, 40 by 82 feet, it devoted to the United States government exhibit. In an annex to the building Is a com plete modern American shoe factory, which will be in full operation during the fair. Besides the 26,500 square feet included in the American building and its annex 60, 000 square feet of space have been allotted to American exhibitors In the Hall of In dustries, 80,000 square feet in the Electric ity building and 80,000 square feet in Ma chinery hall, making a grand total of 146,- 500 square feet of space devoted to the dis play of American products... .France and Germany have each been accorded only 100,000 square feet, and Great Britain gets but 60,000. . America has also been favored in other respects. A Philadelphia syndicate has se cured a concession of 16 acres, which will be devoted to what Is called the American plaisanco, with the idea of showing by practical illustrations many of the most picturesque phases of American life as it Is now and as it has existed in the past. The at tractions here will be varied. Pawnee Bill, the leader of the Oklahoma boomers, will have a wild west show, with a company of 125 people, including Indians, cowboys, Mexicans and soldiers, and any number of American wild animals, such as buffaloes, elk, deer, bears, a pack train of burros and a troop of bucking bronchos. Other features of the plaisance will be an Aztec village, a California ostrich farm, a southern cotton plantation, with negroes at work, and a Florida everglade, with real live alligators. Then in a large corrugated Iron auditorium, seating 1,500 people, there will be delivered every day a series of lec tures in French on picturesque tours in America, illustrated by stereoptlcon views of our best scenery, most notable buildings and places of historlo interest, as well as some of our principal manufactories, which will undoubtedly give home staying for-.. elgners a fair idea of our scenio attrac tions, vast resources and material prog ress, under the grand stand of the wild west show is to be atypical American bar, conducted on an unusually large scale, a feature that is always very attractive to foreigners.

'Calf s foot jelly, tripe and rice are tha articles of food most easily digested, the time required for the first being only thirty minutes, and for the other two one hour each. Among the fish the short fiber of the whiting, " the chicken of the sea," makes it easily digestible. But the foods that' are ' most easily digested are not always the most nutritious. Thus rice, which is more extensively used as an article of food than anything else, forming as it does the principal diet of a third of the human race, is not nearly so nutritious as wheat or some other grains, though it is far more easily digested than they ; more than nine-tenths of its substance consists of starch and water, and it con sequently forms more fat than muscle. Digestion is rather hindered by care and worry or ill health. The process usually occupies from two to three hours. Brooklyn Eagle. MAN'S INHUMANITY TO HIMSELF. The most inhuman outrages, outrages which would disgrace the savage, man perpetrates upon his own system by swallowing drastic pur gatives which convulse his stomach, agonizehls Intestines and weaken his system. Many people constantly do this under the impression that medicaments only which are violent in their action, acid particularly cathartics, are ol any avail. Irreparable injury to health is wrought under this mistaken idea. The laxative which most nearly approaches the beneficent action of nature is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is painless, but thorough, and invigorates the in testinal canal instead of weakening and irritat ing it. The liver and the stomach share in the benign discipline instituted by this compre hensive medicine, whose healthful influence is felt throughout the system. Malarious, rheu matic, kidney and nervous complaints succumb to 1U " Was there no one to sympathize with the fioor wretch who whs being lynched?"
