UNCLE SAM'S REINDEER FARM. CONGRESS CAN'T DO IT. A Marvellous Showing. The U. S. Government, through the Agri cultural Department, has been investigating the baking powders for the purpose of in-, forming the public which was the purest, most economical and wholesome. The published, report shows the Royal Baking Powder to be a pure, healthful preparation, absolutely free from alum or any : adulterant, and that it is greatly stronger in leavening power than any other brand. Consumers should not let this valuable information, official and unprejudiced, go unheeded. ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., 1C6 WALL ST., NEW-YORK. Two Natural and Unavoidable Noises.

Nations Where Races Have Been Fused Always tbo Greatest. Looking at the matter somewhat broadly and omitting minor variations, it may be said that two vigorous but somewhat wide ly divergent races, or group of races, now occupy Europe and the lands that have been peopled from Europe. The one race 13 tall, fair and usually long headed; the other short, dark and usually broad headed. Sinco tbe dawn of European history at least and with special vigor about 1,000 years ago the tall, fair, energetic race has been shed as a seminal principle from the northeast of Europoover a great part of the continent held by a darker and perhaps more civilized race. Tho physical characteristics of Europe have been very favorable to the spread and fusion of these fine races, and the outcome has been the strongest and most variously jrifted breed of men that the world has ever eeen. Wherever the races have remained comparatively pure we seldom find any high or energetic' civilization and never any fine flowering of genius. Sweden, where tho tall, fair, long headed race exists in its purest form, has produced no imagl nativo genius. Auvergne, where the dark, brood headed race may be found in great purity, has in like manner produced a vigorous but an undistinguished breed of men. Corsica and Pyrenees-Orientales, where a fairly unmixed race of dark, long headed men live, have, unlike Sicily or Gard, pro duced no poets. Wherever, on the other 'hand, wo find a land where two unlike races, each of fine quality, have become intermingled and are in process of fusion, there we find n breed of men who have left their mark on the world and have given birth to great poets and artists. Such aro the men of Sicily, a race compounded of the most various elements from east and north, which has produced and is today producing so large a share of the genius of the Italian peninsula. Such are tbe fair and tall but broad headed men of Lorraine, a cross between Celt and Teuton. Such are the lowland Scotch on the border land between Gael and Saxonr Such well tempered breeds have been yielded by Normandy and Tuscany and Swabia. We know little of the phys ical anthropology of the ancient Greek, but it Is certain that one of his most character istic types was the tall, fair man we know in tho north, and the geographical and geological characteristics of Greece present in perfection the conditions which enable varying races to settle and develop in the closest proximity to one another. Greut Britain and Ireland were placed, by a happy chance, broadside on to the in vasion of the fair race. The elongated is lands thus presented the maximum of op portunity for intercourse between the two races. iLven at the present time the proc ess of fusion is still going on. The com' paratively fair race extends along the east coasts of both islands, and the comparative ly dark race along tho west coasts. The is lands form, therefore, a well arranged pair of compact electric batteries for explosive fusion of tho two elements. Both races are necessary for the production of imaginative genius, at all events, for it is a mistake to suppose that high imaginative genius is a characteristic of the unmixed dark races. In Dr. Beddoe's map of the British isles, showing what he terms the index of nigres cence, one solitary islet 01 the dark race only may bo seen in England, east of the Welsh border and apparently at one time joined to it. This islet is in Warwickshire that is, in the county of Shakespeare. Milton's family belonged to a neighboring county, and Milton himself, we know, had Welsh blood in his veins. Out of the play of these two races has come all that is finest in English imaginative genius. Atlantio jMontniy. Eloped With the Hale Team. An amusing incident befell a young lady from near Spring Grove, who came out ot the city from a shopping excursion and boarded tho Spring Grove car at Knowl ton's corner. When she got on, the con ductor-driver was not visible, and it being rather cool she closed the door. The mules attached to the car, hearing the door close, which is a usual preliminary to the driver's "Get up here," started off with a jerk that unloosened the brake and soon settled down into a steady jog trot. The young lady did not notice the ab senco of the driver until the car arrived at Dane avenue, her stopping place. She be gan to investigate and found to her horror and dismay t hat there was no one in charge of tho car and realized that she was the victim of an elopement, a gaunt team of mules being parties to the suit. She gath ered her packages hastily together and scrambled off as best she could, leaving the mules to pursue theeven tenor of their way. Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. Extremely Courteous. The usually formal correspondence of government secretaries is sometimes varied with a stroke of wit or a quaint show of po liteness. A good example of the extremely courteous in public correspondence was the notice sent to Charles James Fox that he was no longer a member of the government of George III. It read thus: "His gracious majesty has been pleased to issue a new commission, in which your name does not appear." Exchange. , . TJp to Date.

New Dr. Jackson Established It In Alaska to Prevent the Eskimos From Starving. That the great father' In Washington cares for bis people even when they are the humble Eskimo of Alaska Is shown by the recent importation of a great herd of reindeer designed to keep them from starv ing. Years ago the vast herds of wild rein deer that roamed the marshy moss covered tundra of Alaska were exterminated by injudicious slaughter, and as the walrus, whale and seal are also rapidly disappear ing, owing to the inroads of the rapacious hunters of the United States and Great Britain, it seemed only a matter of a short timo before tbe natives of Alaska would be face to face with starvation. . In this emergency Dr. Sheldon Jackson of the National Bureau of Education In Washington suggested tbat the govern ment transport from Siberia the domesti cated reindeer that are to the Siberians what herds of oattlo are to the Texan. His plan met with favor, and Dr. Jackson bought and transported to Alaska a herd of over 700 reindeer, which, it is expected, will Increase until it will furnish food, clothing and transportation for the 17,000 Eskimo who inhabit Alaska and its adja cent islands. In one year tho herd increased over 200. It was at first placed in charge of a colony of Laplanders who were imported from Si beria, but as they were homesick and un reliable Dr. Jackson employed William A. Kjelmann of Madison, Wis., to offiolate as DB. SHELDON JACRSOtT. superintendent of the reindeer station. Kjelmann is 83 years of . age and has had considerable experience raising reindeer In Norway. ' .;, The plan of tho United States is to lease small herds of 80 reindeer to tbo most sub stantial ' oitizens of the' Eskimo villages with the understanding tbat in five years 100 must be returned to tbe government. All the .increase above 100 will be the property of the Eskimo. At the end of five yoars the Eskimo should be able to return 100 deer and still have 80 or 40 of his own. The natives consider the proposition a fair ono, and tbey will without doubt care for tbe herds more faithfully than they would if the deer were glvi them by the govern ment. ' When he began carrying out his plan, Dr. Jackson was told by George Kennan and others that on account of certain su perstitions the Siberian natives would on no account sell the government reindeer, and that even if they did the deer would not eat food that had been, bandied- and would die in two days on board a steamer. Happily both predictions proved untrue. Do Babies' Eyes Grow? - How big is "a young baby's eyef We have heard it stated that "a young baby's eye" is as big as a grown person's eye; that the eye does not grow as the body grows; that it is the same size when the baby is born as it is after the baby has grown up to be a man or a woman; tbat it is born full size and is then as big as it ever gets to be. This statement has been submitted to a number of experts on babies, who generally agree that "a young baby's eye" grows as the body grows, though not in the same ratio. But is It truef Authorities are some times in error. Expert witnesses frequent ly tangle themselves up in all kinds of con tradictory statements of facts. Expert physicians do not reach the same conclu sions from identically the same basis of reasoning. Expert cotton buyers often times buy when the slumps in the markets prove that they should have sold. It may be that the baby experts whom we have questioned upon the subject of baby eyes have spoken without Que consideration. We should like to have the puzzle settled.

L There is a general hope and belief throughout the country that Congress will do something finally for the distress and suffering of so many hapless people. It is to be hoped business will start up and give employment to thousands. But there are certain kind of Bufferings which Congress can do nothing to relieve. There is pain and misery always which no legislation can cure. Just think of men crippled for life with the tortures of sciatica.

It would certainly appear that very strange things are enacted in .Paris, judg ing from some of the remarkable occur rences which take place there. " Recently the commissary of police in one of the dis tricts was interrupted during nls dinner oy a young man -who in a state of great ex citement rushed into the office and ex claimed: "My wife declares she will leave me. I would rather die!" He then shouted out bis name and address and plunging a a knife into the region of his heart fell to the around bathed in blood. ' The wife was sent for and threw herself on the young man's body, kissing him on both cheeks and swearing she would never leave him. Whereupon the husband rose to his feet, wiped the blood oil his knife and said to his wife, "That's all right; then we will go home." It turned out that the sham suicide had a bladder of blood con cealed beneath his clothes and had enacted this comedy in order to regain his wife's affection. Boston Traveller. . X Dress For Common Sense Woman. Good sense common sense is one of the cardinal virtues, but the truly feminine woman would rather have it not when it interferes with her indisputable preroga tives. The fact that some of the most artis tic, the most skillful, dressmakers in the country are bending all their energies to ward perfecting a dress which shall meet the requirements of this momentous age, when women are unsexing themselves be cause they must, should give hope to a class almost at its wits' end on the point of a suitable apparel.

This verdict has been given by the best jury ever assembled for such a purpose, backed by the recommend ation of the Chief Chemist of the United States' Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, who made an elabor ate examination and test of all the baking powders. This is pre-eminently the highest authority on such matters in America.

One day Paul tells his servant to sew another button on his trousers. An hour after she brings in the trousers, and with an undecided, anxious air, as if fearing the effect of her demand, says, "It is a sou." Paul draws out a sou in silence and gives it to her. Jeannette retires on tip toe as far as the door, thinks better of it, returns, takes up the trousers and shows the button. "Ah, that is a fine button! (A pause.) I did not find that in my box. (Another and a longer pause.) I bought that at the grocer's. It cost a soul" She draws herself up anxiously. The proprietor of the trousers, still without speaking, gives a second sou. It is clear that she has struck upon a mine of sous. Jeannette goes out and a moment after reopens the door. She has resolved on her course, and in a shrill, piercing voice, with admirable volubility, proceeds: . . . : ' "1 had no thread. I had to buy some thread. I used a good deal of thread good, thread too. The button won't come off. I sewed it on fast. The thread cost a sou." Paul pushes across the table the third on.'': " s' " ;" ' ' Two hours later Jeannette, who has' been pondering on the matter, reap pears.
