ROYAL Baking Powder The strongest, purest, most efficient and wholesome of leavening agents. Not lowest in price, yet the most economical; indispensable to all who appreciate the best and most healthful food. Our country is enjoying prosperity almost unsurpassed in its history. For every one there is money enough to buy that to eat which is pure, sound, good, wholesome. Why should we use cheap, impure, un- 1 healthful articles of food? There is no economy in them; they endanger the health, J they may cost life. There are reported almost daily cases of sickness caused by eating cake, puddings or biscuit made with the rb 'I cheap, alum baking powders. d. In all articles for food buy and use only the best. The good health of the family is J | ■ of first consideration. 10. I l>‘ S Alum is used in many baking powders because it makes |’j them cheap. It costs less than two cents a pound. ]( | Alum is a corrosive poison. Think of feeding it to chil- ■ fll 9 dren I Yet the manufacturers of well-known alum powders arc actually denying that their goods contain it. ii 11s VB ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., 100 WILLIAM ST., NEW YORK.

Smith, Yager & Falk ts If you received a pair of slippers it it is not a command to commence wearing them out on your unruly boy’s new Christmas pants before beginning of the new year. The merited reputation of curing I piles "sores and skin diseases acquired by DeWitt’s Witch Hazek Salve, has led to the making of worthless counterfeits. Be sure to get only DeWitt’s Salve. Smith, Yager & Falk. ts In 1800 the Indian canoe was practically the only floating vehicle on the great lakes, which hold one-third of all the fresh water in the world. Today the lake fleet numbers several thousand steel steamers, with seventy shipyards on the shores of the lakes to add constantly to the number.

Don’t think your trade will stay with you because everybody in town knows you. People buy of merchants who ask for your trade. If a merchant doesn't advertise in this day and age, he isn’t entitled to business. Tell folks you are alive. Pepsin preparations often fail to relieve indigestion because they can digest only albuminous foods. There is one preparation that digests all classes of food, and that is Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It cures the worst cases of indigestion and gives instant relief, for it digests what you eat. Smith, Yager & Falk. ts

No matter how neat a farm may be kept, says an exchange, it will never be neat in appearance if the roadside is neglected. The roadside is the settling of the farm, and if it grows up in weeds and brush, it will cheapen the looks of the whole farm. The shiftless farmer who resolves to reform and clean up should commence on the outside of the fence. Dont’t be hoodwinked into buying a special dye for wool and a special dye for cotton.
