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 superiority 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.

While the order and conduct during the evening services at this place have been reasonably fair, yet there are a few who. apparently deem it their privilege to indulge in "mischievous pranks." Such persons should remember that changing buggy wheels and thereby causing damage. trading whips aud appropriating robes is more harmful than pleasing, more disastreus than funny, and desist before public feeling resents such "notorious fun These persons generally get such "pranks" into their heads and work them off and then these "pranks'' get them into trouble. The identity of the mischief doers is perhaps better known than they suppose and they had best watch out. Better not indulge.
