Housekeepers

Should Remember.

The Government Chemists, after having analyzed all the principal brands of baking powder in the market, in their reports placed the "Royal" at the head of the list for strength, purity and wholesomeness and thousands of tests all over the country have further demonstrated the fact that its qualities are, in every respect, unrivaled.

Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.

On Sunday morning early burglars went through a number of houses. At A. D. Archey's they took the window screen out, ate a lot of cookies and took a pie.

Morford's they took the pantB of Will Holliday out in the yard and secured S7. They cut the screen bv the hook on the screeu door at Doc Lofland's, walked in and took his pants out in the vard securing S6 or $8 and left $400 worth of jewelry on the stand.

Perry Stump, of the city, took dinner with Wm. Davis last Wednesday and while he was eating some mischievous person hid his hat, and when he had tilled himself from William's table and came out his hat was gone and could not be found for some time.

He left for home not knowing any better.

IMPOSSIBLE CLASSIC HEROES.

The

Characters Urawji by Old Writer* Not at All True to Life. Some of the older novelists in dealing with old Rome, the feudal days in France, Germany or England, or with pioneer life, make their characters belong simply to another time in the new world, instead of to another race and world of their own, says a writer in the New England Magazine. In endeavoring to reproduce scenes and social conditions which have passed away, many historical novelists confuse the conditions and perennial human nature. They label their characters according to their social station and confusc these social distinctions with the qualities of the spirit. They give us men and women whom God would fail to recognize, but whom the critics, more acute, readily hail as models and types for all other students of human nature. Their characters are nearly all mounted on stilts they are animated by motives and considerations which are quite im possible, and they talk as human beings never talked in this world. They deal not with tlie exceptional, which is possible and artistic, but with the im possible, which is caricature.

Their old Romans and barons and highwaymen, etc., stalk through the scene mouthing platitudes and "sentiments," Whereas we may be quite cer tain that they occtipied themselves chiefly with cheating, lying, cringing, stealing, scheming, dining,, drinking, dissipating, working, gossiping, gam' ing and talking slang, just as men are doing in the streets, marts, public offices, theaters, etc., of Paris, London and New York to-day. And beneath all this action there was always a crude philosophy, classifying and analyzing both motives and actions. One would imagine from the romantic representations of these phases of life that this reflective habit of mankind was an in' vention of yesterday, and did not really date beyond the decline of the Roman empire to the philosophy and civilization of Greece. These same virtues and vices exist to-day, and never will been tirely eradicated, no matter how high the title of civilization rises but, except in the very lowest plane of human life, where the relation to humanity is scarcely more than that of the human form, men in all ages have sought for a solution of the riddle of existence, and hence have, in a more or less crude fashion, reflected upon action.

Incomes of Fruula.

Out of a population of 30,000,000 in I Prussiaonly 2,435,858 persons possess an income of over 900 marks a year, whicli is equal to about $225. This fact is 6hown by the first year's results in the new income tax in Prussia. Two million one hundred and eighteen thou-1 sand nine hundred and sixty-nine pay income tax on the lowest scale—that is, on incomes of between 000 and 3,000 marks. Only 10,908 persons have incomes of over 30,000 marks, or about I $7,000 a year. The highest income declared is 0,700,000 marks, and from the locality where it was registered the person is supposed to be Krupp, the gunmaker of Essen.

An Ideal Wife.

A well known banker who had not expressed his opinion was asked what his idea was of what might be termed an ideal woman. "My wife asked me the same question the other day," he replied, "and I told her my ideal was embodied in the latter part of the thir-ty-first chapter of Proverbs. She went and read the chapter, and when she came back she said she wasn't going to be my ideal, and I was rather glad of it, for I think perfection might be as hard to get along with as to gain."
