Royal Baking Powder W'

«J? The Royal Baking Powder will make sweeter lighter, finer-flavored Mid more wholesome bread, biscuit and cake than any other leavening agent. It is of higher strength, and therefore goes further in work and is more economical. AU government and scientific tests go to show

Royal Baking Powder as a leavening agent is absolutely without equal. RUSH MEDICAL COLLEGE, CHICAGO. "As the result of my tests I find the Royal

Baking Powder superior to all the others in every respect It is entirely free from all adulteration and unwholesome impurity, and in baking it gives off a greater volume of leavening gas than any other powder. It is therefore not only the purest but also the strongest powder with which I am acquainted. "WALTER S. HAINES, M. D.,"

Prof, of Chemistry.

CHICAGO COLLEGE OF PHARMACY.

•'The Royal Baking Powder which tests the highest in strength, is free from lime, alum, lime phosphates or other adulterations. Its superlative purity, the entire wholesomeness of its ingredients, the scientific manner an which they are combined, together with its much greater strength, make the Royal unquestionably supejrior to any other baking powder.

patron, Adam Mingle to add the name of C. M. Archer to our list which we did. He is a son-in-law of Mr. Mingle and to gether they were making things hum. Mr. M. is a happy prosperous firmer and never leaves any thing to do tomorrow that he can do today, he attends to his own business also which is the secret of his success as a farmer. It is pleasant to know men like Mr. )M. and Mr. Archer.

Elwood Barnard will likely go south for his health. Elwood is an assiduous worker and over taxes physical as well as his mental power.

We paused by the wayside, at the home of A. C. Hiday. They were enjoying natural gas at his home. We stayed until the conversational powers of the editor became very forcible, of course he had it his own way, as none but Mrs. Hiday and myself were present. Any way the Are that was burning brightly, suddenly gave up the effort and quietly re.ired, and left us masters of the situation. This furnished a fitting hint to go eo we went.

Over at Fortville, the young ladies have stuck their chewing gum to church pews, school seats, counters, sign posts, box cars, etc., and adopted S. E. Wisehart's new French chewing candy, which is far superior to the aforesaid gum and affords a great deal mere satisfaction, this is a hint for you to try it.

White & Son., the carriage manufacturers, are men of brains and energy. Each one is an accomplished workman in his line, and no snide work or workman is seen in their establishment. They carry a year.y ad., in the REPUBLICAN, and realize good returns from the same. If you wish a first-class vehicle, have White & Sou, build it for you.

J. L. Wiseman and wife, of the Wiseman House, are the most courteous landlojd and landlady to be found anywhere. They set excellent, wholesome food and an abundance of it.

THE GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY. DECEMBER 10, 1891.

W. Claytor, assisted by his genial brother, is enjoying a good trade, during the dull days. His store is tihuck full of a splendid line of dry goods, notions, groceries, etc. Mr. Clayton always keeps prices down within the reach of all, his goods are of the Test quality and every one is sure to get the worth of his money, who trade there.

I was pleased to become acquainted with Mr. McConnell, the new Fortville banker. This town is the second best in the county, has long needed a bank, and Mr. McCounell seems to be the right man to man.ige it. The people of Fortville, very pi operl.v consider him and his family quite an acquisition to their town. He wisely concluded that he would try the

I met B. Probasco, at the store of Brewster & Thomas. Mr. P., was formerly of Hartford, City. He purchased the Joseph A rnett property west of town, and has paiuted and beautified it, with a view of making it his future hu:ue. He authorized me to state, that he considers Heath & Milligaus paints, the best, for sale by l*rews!er& Thomas.. 1 eujoyed a few minutes conversation with him. He is jovial and possesses many pleasant traits of character. 1 have observed in my short career, that some farmers get there and some iictu't, the same is applicable to the busi

mail truly admire the man that puBst-srr* sufficient "git up" to hustle. This is, 1 think, abundantly applicable to tue store of my friends, Brewster & Thomas, the Fi nville druggist. It is run on strictly business principles. It hasaclean, invitiiig look, witii neatly painted front and ?,OIH1 hif£iis. The windows are clean ami often o! niiuieuttd with some tasty display, appropriate to ibeir business. Step iuhitie, the pleading iuiyicpsiou created by the exterior, is deepened by the orderly di.Mider, attendant upon a busy day. \*u are met by a wide-awake man, who pleasantly inquires your wants and immediaicly proceeds to nttcud them. Look about you, you see all the shelves filled in orderly array, with holiday goods of all discriptions, for old and y»uug, litile and big, including fine plush goods of all descriptions, toilet sets, albums, books, toys for the children, an elegant line of juvenile books, dolls, jewelry, lamps, vases, fine stationary, china cups and saucers, etc., etc. It is a pleasure to me to advise people to go to their store to trade, for they will be well treated. Be ing a thoroughly representative establishment in the business It controls a large share of the surrounding patronage, and is one which I do not hesitate to recommend to the careful consideration of our readers assuring them that in every respect, they will find them competent to supply any of the above named articles, at the lowest figures, able to meet all competition. Thus practically proving that they are entitled to the high position held by them, for reasons that must be obvious to every thinking person. Besides, the proprietors combine all the qualifications of successful druggists, and are continually adding to their patronage. I most heartily recommend them to all people, knowing thlkt they will find them careful and reliable pharmacists. A most comprehensive line of the best goods are always in stock and the prices are guaranteed. RAMBLER.

Get Up and Hnstle.

The hustlers are getting there. Other people are getting left. The slow coach does not deserve much pity when he could cure himself. He grubs along with an average business, doing reasonably well and making a fair living. He is neither rich or poor he is scoring just a commonplace, ordinary success. If he was tremendously successful or tremendously unsuccessful he would be interesting, but, as it is, he is dragging along in a deeply-worn rut, paying expenses, but wishing he could make his business yield him a handsome profit. His condition really is not half as bad as he thinks. The worst feature about it is the fact that he has an idea that "the curse of the business is that you have to turn right around and put your profit into advertising and improvements. Now, that im't an idea of over two-horse power, but nevertheless it will ruin his chances of success if he hugs it too closely. For money is made by advertising much easier than by setting around growling and waiting. Dont wait.

Green Townnlitp Institute.

Teacher's Institute at No. Green township was well attended. All the teachers save one were present at roll call and responded promptly with quotations from Longfellow and Whittier. One teacher was tardy. Superintendent Jackson was present. E. M. Chaplin of Warsaw Ind. entertained the Institute with a very appropriate recitation and introduced anew school chart. Trustee Ba rrett gave a very nice dinner to the teachers and visitors at his home. The next Institute will be held at Eden on the second Saturday of February 1893. All are invited and a good time anticipated. EUNICE BARRETT, PJ-

Exposition Day nt the City Schools On Friday last the Greenfield schools .celebrated the Discovery of America by Columbus by speaking declamations and reading compositions relating to the discovery. One of the interesting parts of the evening was a speech by Edgar Binford relating to the education of the American Indians, which he handled in away that shewtd a remarkable oratorical power. He is a promising young student and the schools are proud of him. The evening was passed in a remarkably interesting and enjoyable manner. The scholars of the various schools contributed a penny each, the teachers ten cents, the Principals 25 cents and the Superintendent 50 cents, while the amounts are not large yet extended all over the state the sum is indeed a large one.
