Latest U". S. Gov't Food Report. &

ABSOLUTELY PURE.

Established by Government Tests the Standard Baking Powder. The very Giant of leavening agents. Has a larger use than all other cream of tartar baking powders combined.

Prof. HAINES,of Rush Medical College, Consulting Chemist Chicago Board of Health I find the Royal Baking Powder superior to all the others in every respect."

Dr. H. "A. MOTT, U. S. Government Chemist: The Royal is undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder made."

Prof. PALMER, University of Illinois: "I find Royal Baking Powder invariably composed of wholesome ingredients, entirely free from adulteration or impurities of any kind."

SAN FRANCISCO BOARD OF HEALTH In our judgment it is impossible to make a purer or stronger baking powder than the Royal."

The N. Y. STATE ANALYST: "The Royal Baking Powder is superior to any other powder which I have examined."

The MINNESOTA STATE CHEMIST: I consider the Royal one of the best baking powders made."

WISCONSIN FOOD COMMISSIONER: "Royal Baking Powder is of high and uniform strength and quality its ingredients pure and wholesome."

INDIANA STATE CHEMIST Royal Baking Powder is perfectly free from any deleterious or injurious substance."

Avoid all baking powders that require larger cans than the Royal to hold an equal weight. This is sure evidence of their adulteration.

GOOD ADVICE.—The editor of the West Branch, Iowa Record, gives his readers some good advice: "We have used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in our family in cases of sudden colds and sore throat and find it all that is claimed for it. One bottle or less, if taken aecording to directions will, we believe, effect a cure in any ordinary case and save the expense of large doetor bills. Especially do we recommend it in families where the children aria threatened with croup, as it will, afford immediate relief, if taken in time which can always be done if the medicine is kept on hand, as we are convinced it should be."

More serious sickness is produced by allowing the bowels to remain in a torpid or partially constipated condition than from any other cause. In many instances diseases are produced, from which people never wholly recover. Dyspepsia, piles and nervous disorders are three of the most common and most serious. They are caused by neglecting the bowels, and can be prevented by an occasional dose of St. Patrick's Pills, which always produce a pleasant cathartic effect, ami not only physic, but cleanse the whole system and regulate the liver and bowels. 25 cents per box, for sale by L.
