By the death of Roscoe Conkuso the country loses a brilliant lawyer and one of the greatest of party leaders. His admirers and followers, who were forrnhlnble in numbers and influence to the last, although he bad beeu withdrawn for nearly seven years from active participation in political affair?, will also claim for him the rank of z great statesman. To that distinction wc think he had no valid title. His long career in congress, disinsuhhed as it was in many respects, eft little impress upon legislation, ajd the future historian will in vain search the organic law and the statutes of the nation for any enduring testimony to his constructive genius or his kill in the application of great principles in the practical treatment of political and econor. problems. It was a an organizer that Mr. Coxklino had no superiors among his contemporaries, save, poIbly, Mr. Tn.r.Ex, and his methods were as different as man. 3Ir. Conklixg was a rigid disciplinarian, and believed that a political party should 1x5 organized and conducted upon tre same' principles that obtain iu an army, lie considered it essential that there should be a ringle directing will, and that in his own party that will should be his own. lie insisted that all subordinates in the organization should yield implicit and unyielding obedience to the commands oi their superiors. Independence of thought or action on the part of a fellow partisan, even upon minor matters, he regarded as a crime, and he showed no mercy to those who practiced it. lie cherished the doctrine that to the victors belong the spoil?' and regarded public offices as the legitimate rewards of partisan activity. While in the senate he devoted most of his time to the distribution of patronage, and when Presidents Hayes and Oakfield abridged his opportunities in this direction he quitted public life in disgust, never to re-enter it. He was a man of intense individuality; a good friend but a bitter enemy; proud, self-willed, and arrogant; passionately fond of power; inordinately ambitious and excessively vain, alike of his physical and intellectual gifts. He was an eloquent and fascinating orator, a ready debater and an excellent parliamentarian. His personal integrity was never questioned. lie passed through tn era of profligacy and corruption with clean hands, and was proof against the temptations to illicit gain which, during Liä public career, proved the ruin of so many cf his contemporaries. But for certain unfortunate defects of temperament, which are sufficiently indicated in the foregoing, Mr. Conklino might easily have taken rank as the foremost republican statesman of his day, and would probably have been president of the United States. . A Machine-Made Delegat icn. The Xeus, which makes considerable pretensions to falrnes and candor, professes to believe that the Indiana delegation to Chicago represents the free and untrammeled sentiment of the republicans of the state. Wo can only credit the JVVrs with honesty in this matter at the expense of its intelligence, which we have never heard questioned. The fact that IIaesisos delegates have been ground j out by the machine without regard to the wishes of the republican masses, and that Mr. Harrison's canvass is in the hands of a gang of political adventurers is so palpable and notorious that the AVv can neither ignore nor deny it without presuming very far upon the ignorance and credulity of its readers. The Xem must know, unlcf-s it has its eyes closed and its ears plugged, that the delegates from the Second district were chosen without even a pretence of consulting the wishes of the republicans of the district; that in the First district Auditor Bruce Cakb, aided by two or three other alleged statesmen from Indianapolis, "set up" the delegation for Harrison, and that their operations were so indecent and brazen that the entire delegation from Vanderburgh refused to participate in the farce of "choosing delegates" who had been picked out in advance by these audacious interlopers; and that in the Twelfth district convention a cut-and-dried programme was carried out over the protest of the entire delegation from Allen county, the largest and most important in the district. The information of these and other outrages perpetrated in Mr. Harrison's interest comes not from democratic but from republican sources. The Evansville Journal, a republican paper of the highest character, denounces in unmeasured terms the methods by which the Harrison managers overrode the wishes of the republicans of that district. The telegram which appeared in yesterday's SENTurEL describing the manner in which the Geesiiam sentiment of the Twelfth district was throttled at Auburn wa3 written by a republican of the highest veracity, and the best party standing. The Logan3port JonmnJ, one of the leading republican papers of the state, strongly condemns the interference cf the Harbison bosses in the selection of delegates from tho Tenth district. It pays the republicans of that district "are capable of managing their own a'lairs;" that they "don't want any dictation from tho outside," nd that "hundreds of them will resent such dictation." The Shelbyvillo IlqmhUcan specifies Auditor Carb and . Att'y Geo. Michene as men who have made themselves offensive by their "unprecedented and uncalled for oflkiousness" in the conduct of IIaurison's scandalous campaign for Indiana delegates. These arc only a few of the many expressions of like tenor from the republican newspapers in the state, which might be qnotcd did space permit, and which , can hardly have escaped the observation cf the Xcice. The fact is that Gen. Harrison's delegation from Indiana is the product of machine methods, as vicious and brazen as were ever practiced in the politics of a great state. The Xtvt may prefer to jgr.ure or deny this fact, but it i supported by arjiup'yiglblo republican ttütiwoay,

and it has a sinister - significance which must .be deplored by all lovers of clean politics, to whatever " party they may adhere. . ' Work of the Harrison 3IacbJne There are a good many thousand Gresham republicans in Indiana, and it is plain that they don't intend to 6ubmit to the high-handed methods employed by the "Slick Six" in packing the delegation to Chicago for IIaekison. All considerations of fairness propriety and decency have been overridden by the gang in its efforts to secure a solid, square-toed, first-and-last for Harrison delegation. How far they have succeeded in stifling tho voice of the very large and respectable element which prefers Gkesoam remains to be seen. The gang claims, and with some apparent reason, to have carried its point in every instance. Judge Gkesham's manager, however, declare that a number of the delegates chosen yesterday are very hike-warm in their support of IIarkiso.v, and that they will embrace tho first opportunity to desert hici for his more popular rival. However this may be, it is certain that tho IIarribON managers have exhausted all the resources known to machine politics in their desperate attempt to obtain control of tho delegation. Beginning with the outrage in tho Second district, where the delegates wero ground out by the machine in utter disregard of the wishes of the republicans

of the district, they have perpetrated a series of outrages which culminated in the indecont performance at F.vansville the other day, and tho farces which were enacted in the Marion county primaries Wednesday evening and in the convention held in this city yesterday. Wo are not surprised that so large a section of the republican party of the state it in open revolt against the II a unison . -gang. The Evansville Journal, a paper of better character and larger influence -than its Indianapolis namesake, lias served notice uion these fellows that they have gone too far. The Journal has favored Haruison-all along, and says it still prefers him to Gresham. But it denounces, in vigorous terms, the methods by which the gang has conducted his campaign in Indiana, and it says very plainly that' the republicans of the First district will not submit to be robbed of their sovereignty by the machinations of a set of unscrupulous machine politicians. Other prominent republican newspapers hold the same attitude. In fact, the indignation is intense ail over the state, and the reaction which has set in, with such vigor against the domination cf the gang threatens to disrupt the party in Indiana. Of course we are resigned to the situation. We can well afford to be. It is not our funeral. We warned tho Harrison managers, at the outset, that they were in danger of going too far, but they chose to ignore the warning and are already confronted with the consequences of their recklessness. They have overreached themselves and placed Gen. Harrison in a position which is as unenviable as it must be painful to one of his lofty pretensions as a political purbt. Gen. Harrison, as tho Evansvillo Jovrnil remarks, is troubled with fool friends. Aud we are not sure that he is really wiser than his friends. Since the alwve was put in type the proceedings of the convention at Evansville have come to hand. The convention vtas very stormy, and terminated in an open revolt by the Vanderburgh delegation. In several other districts the attempt to rush the Harrison programme through iv as vigorously resisted, and the proceedings were of tho "parrot and monkey" order. The Indiana delegation at Chicago will represent tho machine and the machine onlv. Tho Tariff On "Wool. The Journal printed the other day an interview with Mr. Isaac Thalmax, a dealer in vrool, from which we extract the following: Would the removal of the tariff affect the wool industry? I think it would. Let me cite you one circumstance that makes me think so. Last year it was thought and was pnblished mil over the world that the wool crop in the United States was comparatively a failure, that not more than half a crop would be realized. This was untrue. But mark its effect. Wool-growers of Fnrope, learnin of the deficiency in this country, as it was represented, promptly raised the price of their wool. They meant to take advantage of our necessity, as they would do every time under free trade; but when they found out that the report was false, and they could not get a higher price than usual, they proceeded at once to reduce again. Now that shows w hat kind of a condition we will always be in when we are dependent on a foreign country for our supplies of an article. The abolition of the tariff would, in my judgment, destroy to a lanre extent the wool industry ot this country. The effect would be to put the business in the hands of Europe, when the wool men could raie the price, as this little llurnr of last year indicated, and in the end wc would pay more than we do now. Of course when we reached that condition our farmers would berin raising again and bring the price down. But it would then be put down so low in Europe that it would drive us out again and the same conditions w ould recur. You see that the abolition of the tariff has this bad effect, it leaves our market in the control of the foreignersomething that we don't want ia any line of business under any circumstances. Mr. TnALMAX may be honest iu these statements, but vro Eubruit that there is neither logic nor common sense in them. Because a reported failure of our wool crop resulted in a temporary advance in the price of foreign wool.?, it does not follow that a like result would attend a repeal of the duty on wool. This would not happen unless the abolition of tho duty wero to destroy or cripple our wool-growing interests. Souo of tho wool-growers claim that this would be its effect, but they cannot prove it by firet assuming it to be true, and then making deductions from the asFumption, as Mr. Tiialmax does. That is begg.ng the question. In the Dame interview Mr. Tiialmax gays what is admitted to bo true : Tbe tendency is to crowd the sheen Industry further wct.t as new states are settled. It takes n great deal of pasture for heep, and land is becoming too valuable in eastern states to devote to it. It ran bf. tt.w4 in othrr vytyu to vuikt ?crr monry. So, eventually, it mtist.be confined to land that can not be profitably used for anything else. Colorado and Montana w ill be great wool-growing states in the future. I can not say there is much of a decline in Indiana, btilf there is certainly no growth in it. In iny judgment U trill grout le$ Jrorn now on. Here w e have the Avhole philosophy of Ibid w ool question fn a nutshell. Woolgrowing is not and cannot bo made profitable in Indiana or Ohio or Penneylvaua or New York, because laud is too valuable in these Rtates to be used for pasture. The industry will continue to decline, tariff or no tariff. It is the height of folly to try to bolster it up by a protective duty. An economic law which id parau'ount to statutes will force it to the

territories of the farwest where land is plenty and cheap, and much of it useless for any other purpose. These territories can successfully compete with any country on tho globe, because they possess all the natural advantages that other countries have, besides an advantage in the matter of transportation (so far as the American market is concerned), which can never be taken away from them. Rightly interpreted, Mr. Thalman's Journal interview is really a good argument for free wool. A prominent republican of St. Paul, writes from a Southern winter resort, where he has met and talked with many representative republicans from the North, that he "finds it the general opinion, that Mr. Cleveland will bo his own successor unless the wisest counsels prevail in the republican party." The Pioneer Press (rep.) of St. Paul quotes the above and other expressions of like import from his letter. From present indications the "wisest counsels" will not prevail iu the republican party this year. It is now as certain as anything in the future can be that Cleveland will bo renominated by acclamation at t. Louis. The bloody shirt is not going to cut much figure in the campaign oi 1SSS.

Charles Denhy, our present minister to China, has been c.vtcnsivefv cautioned in connection with the viccprcsi'deney, the public has had no expression iron the gentleman himself, ss to his own choice in the matter. In the following letter, which has been received by the editor of the Tribune, Col.

J A. J. Milter, Editor Evening Tribun: Dear Sir I thank you most sincerely for the very kind mention of wo lately made in yonr paper in connection with the nomination for tho vice-presidency.

Andrew Jackson, in his messace to congress in December, 1332, recommended a gradual diminution of duties to the revenue standard "as soon a.s a just regard to the faith of the f-overnnaent and to the preservation of the arge capital invested in the establishments of domestic industry will permit." That is precisely the position of President Cleveland's message, of the Mills tariff hill and of the democratic party. Andrew Jackson led the party to victory "on that line, and with undiminished popularity transmitted his political power to the policy of his democratic successors. President Pierce was eketed iu lvü and President Buchanan iu 15 on the same line of poLicy, and the "free trade" tariff of 1S46 was in lull and successful operation. Will any pretended democrat in Georgia or cbe here undertake to assert that the Mills bill is as radical a measure of tariff reduction ns was the tariff" of l$4o? During the operation of this tariff the democratic party achieved some of its greatest victories over the party of protection. While the democratic partv flourished under "free trade," the high-iarilT whig party went to piece?, There was then nlmoit entire .urmony in the democratic ranks on this question from Maine to Georgia, ince that time some remnants of the delunct w hig party have crept into the bo&on of the democracy to sow dirsensin and heresy in its organization. But while there remains of ancient high-tariff whiggery may temporarily embarass and obstruct the democratic party, they should not be, permitted to guide its councils and dictate its poiicv. Of this fact Samuel J. Bandall atl'ords a mtlanclioly example. Tbe Wool luty. Reportjon the Mills Tariff. Why, then, should we keep out by hicrh duties" tbe foreign wools to necessary to the clothing of the people? The wool growers' association asks us to put on a duty high enough to prevent tbe importation of all wool. The wool manufacturers' association ask us to put on a duty high enough to keep out all manufactures of wool. It congress grants this joint request, what are the people to do for woolen clothing? Are the people to be compelled by congress to wear cotton goods in the winter or go without to give bounties to wool J Towers and wool manufacturers? During the aft fiscal year there were 114,404,173 pounds of wool imported, and of that amount 1,505,447 were cheap carpet wool, the greater part of which paid 2ii cents per pound duty. The high duty of 10 cents per pound on the finer wools that go into clothing was so great a barrier against tbe importation of the better wools that only 33,010,01 pounds were imported. But our people required clothing, and tf congress put a duty so high on wool as to keep it out, still, high as was the duty on woolen goods, $44,235,243 worth were imported and consumed in this country, upon which duties were paid amounting to f29.729,717. If the charges con- . i t .1 a i x stanuy oeing mane are true nut great, quantities othese goods are coming in undervalued, underweighed and unmeasured then the aggregate amount is much larger. A Workingutan's Change of Heart. Jasper Courier. We received a private letter last weck fron a native of Dubois county, a workingman and a hfedong republican. His, how ever, is but one of thousands of instances, found in every neighborhood, where the young generation, devoid of the prejudices always engendered by a civil war, are turning from the republieau party because of its advocacy of monopolies and high taxation to produce an unnecessary surplus. We take the liberty of quoting a senteuce from his letter, although it was not intended for publication. He writes: "I cannot let the present opportunity pass without congratulating you ou the firm stand f ou have taken against the w orkingman's and armer's best friend, protection, if we are to believe Mr. John Sherman and the enterpri.-tng Mr. Blaine. I. for one of the 'highly protected American laborers which they boast of so much, have lost faith in their boasted 'protection,' and, contrary to the teachings of the average Irelandite stand straight for Cleveland and solute free trade. I would also go further and Iiave taxes abolished on all products of labor, and raise all necessary revenues for government by a straight tax on land values." An Artificial and Unsound System. New York Times. There is a perceptible dullness in 6ome lines of business which it suits our ardent proteo tionhiU to attribute to tbe pgitation of changes in the tariff. Undoubtedly they are, to a certain extent, correct. It is one of the worst features of the high-tariff system tliat it causes a considerable number of enterprises to depend upon legislative action. But that is an argument for a reform of so artificial and unsound a system, not for its indefinite continuance. The passage of n substantial measure of ta riß' reduction would have theimmenee ad vantage of placing these, enterprises on a secure footing where thry would know what to depend upon.

The swelling in the glands has decreased. For breakfast to-day the emperor ate somo beef and fowl aud an hoar later he took broth and eggs. During the day he spoke cheerfully to the doctors.

THE CROWDS CHEER BOULANGER. Electing of th Chamber of Deputiear-Flo-quet Demands a Vote of Confidence. Paris;, April in. The chamber cf deputies reconvened to-day. On the demand of Premier Floquet the chamber, by a vote of 379 to 177, adopted an order of the day, expressing confidence in the government, and the conviction that it will secure by its energy respect for republican institutions, the triumph of its policy of progress and reform, and the liberty desired by the conntry. In his epeech Premier Floquet said that before the business on the notice paper was proceeded with some explanations were necessary. The situation was not so perilous as had been represented, yet it wa-s serious enough. The government wished to know if there existed in the chamber a majority prepared to place confidence in the cabinet, whose tendency was wholly toward the left. It required the confidence of the chamber iu order to defend republican institutions against those who had displayed the monarchical tiai? or who oCered the nation the plebiscite riddle. M. Junimcl, of the left, asked leave to ou es tiou the povcrnmcot as to its general policy. Premier Floquet assented, and" there w as an immediate debate ou the subject. In the course of the ensuing discussion M. Floquet declared himself an advocate of revision of the constitution, but he appealed to the chamber to await a time when the cry for revision would not be, us it now is, either a pnarc spread by the monarchists or a cloak to hide the dictator's throne. The premier's speech evoked prolonged cheering from the left and centre and noiy protests from the right. Before adjourning the chamber, by a vote of .14) to '1, tixed Saturday for the discussion on the nomination of a committee on revision of the constitution. The government did not oppose the motion. (Jen. Bou langer received an undeniable ovation on his wav to the chamber of deputies. In

Ia the chamber a croup of J deputies and reporters hissed and cheered for I the republic. Several rows occurred, and i.a;-on tmionr, jjonapartisr. ana n. Aren, Opportunist, exchanged cards. The difficulty, however, was adjusted by mutual friends of the gentlemen. Gen. Boulanger, w ho arrived in an open carriage, was cheered by the immense crowd that was assembled outside of the parliament buildinzs. The lobbies were thronged and much excitement prevailed. All of the political groups in the chamber held reunions. The extreme left adopted resolutions repudiating the plebiscite, and declaring that the Boulangist deputies fhall be excluded from the party. The left decided not to interpellate the government. The radical left approved au entente with the government regarding the appointment of a committee to revise the constitution. The united right will propose that such a committee be appointed at the next sitting. MM. Lagnerre, Le Ilerisse and Do Bailede accompanied Gen. Boulanger when he entered the chamber. Gen. Boulanger ignored the appeals of hundreds of friends to avoid publicity. On entering the Salles de la Paix of the chamber of deputies, a crowd of deputies craned forward to sec him, and Gen. Boulanger, tliinkinor they manifested sympathy for him, gniiled. The Ptonn instantly broke, the deputies crying "A bas le dictateuea!" "A has Boulanger!" Keys were used as whistles, and for a time pandemouium reigned. Anger convulsed every face. For a moment the general flinched, but he immediately retrained his self-possession and entered the chamber lauching, taking a seat near M. Pyatt. I Toward midnight there was au uproarious I Boidangerist demonstration in the Flaee de ' Bourse. A strong body of police drove the . crowd back to the Kite Montmatre and made ; several arrests. In a short time the uproar had entirely subsided. BEFORE IT IS BORV. Borne Startllns Statements of General In terestt Dr. Oliver "Wendell Holmes, on being asked when the training of a child should begin, replied : "A hundred years bef oi e it is born." Are we o infer fiom this that this generation is responsible for the condition of the race a hundred years from now ? Is this wonderful generation the natural result of tho proper diet and medicines of a hundred years ago? It is conceded In other lands that most of the wonderful discoveries of the world In this century have come from this country. Our ancestors were reared in log cabins, and suffered hardships and trials. But they lived and enjoyed health to a ripe old age. The women of those days would endure hardship without apparent fatigue that would st&rtle those, of the present age. Why was it f One of the proprietors of the popnlar remedy known as Warner's safe cure has been faithfully investigating the cauEe, and has called tc his aid scientists as well as medical men, impressing upon them the fact that there cannot be an ettect without a cause. This investigation disclosed the fact that In the olden times simple remedies were administered, compounded of herbs and roots, which were gathered and stored in the lofts of log cabins, and when sickness came on, these remedies from nature's laboratory were used with the best effects. What were these remedies? What were they used for? After untiring and diligent search they have obtained the formulas so generally used for various disorders. Now the question Is, how will the olden time preparations affect the people of this age, who have been treated, under S modern medical schools and codes, with poisonous and injurious drugs. This test bas been carefully pursued, until they are convinced that the preparations they now call Warner's Log Cabin Remedies are what our much abused systems require. Among; them is what is known as Warner's Log; Cabin Sarsapsrilla, and they frankly announce that they do not consider the Sarsaparilla of so much value in Itself as it is in the combination of tue various ingredients which together work marvelously upon the system. They abo have preparations for other diseases, euch as "Warner's Log Cabin Cough and Consumptive Remedy," "Log Cabin Hops and Buchu Remedy," "Warner's Log Cabin Scalpinc" for the hiir. They have great confidence that they have a cure for the common diseaso of catarrh, which they give the name of "Log Cabin Rose Cream." Also a "Log Cab'n Plaster," which they are confident will supplant all others, and a Liver Pill, to be used ccparately or in connectiorj with tho other remedies. We hope, that the public vill not be disappointed In these remedies, but will reap a benefit from tbe investigations, and that the proprietors will not be embarrassed in their introductioa by dealers trying to substitute remedies that have been so familiar to tho shelves of our druggists. This lino of remedies will be used instead of others. Insist upon your druggist getting them for you if he hasn't them yet in atock, ud we feel confident that these new remedies will receive approbation at cir readers' hands, as tho founders hat used evcrj care in their preparation. - When Baby was tick, we gave her CastorLo, Y, hen she was a Child, &hc cried for Cafeteria, When 6he became Miss, she clung to Castori, WLca she had Children, sho gava them Castoria,

Although nothing definite can be known until to-morrow, it is generally believed that the democratic ticket is successful. The ballot was free in every precinct and in many instances republicans voted the democratic ticket as a protest against the machine of 76 which forced the present state ticket on the party. There has been much scratching:, and the count is necessarily tdow. It is reported from many points that the democratic majority will be the largest in vears. 1 A. M. The indications are that Nieholls is elected governor by a majority of 20,000.

Oregon and Washiuffton. No section of the country is to-day attracting so much attention as Montana, Oregon and Washington; Montana because it now ranks first in the production of precious metal; Oregon because of ita rich valleys, and Vt ashinrton territory by reason of iu mild climate, timber, coal, minerals and wonderful production of frnit and cereals. The rapid growth of Spokane Falls, with a water power exceeding even that of Minneapolis; Tacoma, on Fuget Eonnd, the terminus of the Northern Pacilic railroad, with 12,000 inhabitants; Seattle, thirty miles distant, an energetic and thriving city, mark this section of the Pacific Northwest as one that offers peculiar inducements to those Kkinc new homes.

Th fits and starts using these words in their literal mesuing of the nervous people often strike the beholder as ludicrous. The nerres of hearing of such unfortunates are painfully acute, and implnped by abrupt, unexpected noises, lead them sometime to perform antics worthy of a jtiuir.lr.Kjack. At the root of nervousness, in most inntanees, is non-ass! mlUt Ion of tho food, and consequently innutrition of the nerrea as of the other tissues of tbe ho ly.

Czsticr Coxpant, ' ' Murray Street, S. Y. The Danger Before t " We have already alluded to the importance of housektepers paying more attention to the kind of Inking powder usi d in leavening their brea k Thi is a matter tn which we cannot tlraw attention too often, because it "is foraf thin:j which involves the most serious consquencts to the general body of mankir.d. Teinperaiier apostles tell us and there is ample foundation for the st.ttenient that there is d:sea.- both moral and physical, in the intoxiratinp cup: and ' t'1- same way there is dts- . ease, slow perhap. but ct-riain. in the lime and hluni leavtnimr agents employed in many of the homes of this copilurrt. No punishment i too severe for thoe manufacturers who place Üiese poisonous alum and lime bilking powders In-fore the public with the assurance tint they j; re pure aud wholesome articl :-.. In th.- belief of the truth of such statement?, stich baking powders are used 1.1 arircly in the preparsiioii of food, an nnhn nay the poisonous ingredients an taken into W! the svstem without a suspicion f their pres ence. By and by, come spells of headache, dis- -tres in the stoms-.-h, los of appetite, a flutter- ' in? of the heart : tho child is seized with an apparently causeless cough. The coating of the ' stomach is destroyed perhaps; one of the vital organs is rendered almost useless; the kidneys are attacked w ith Bright's disease. The health -of the child is irreparably broken down; the' adult becomes a chronic invalid. These arc the doings oi the modern cheap baking powder that urc composed cf lime and alum, or thai contain sulphuric or phosphatie acids. In view of the facts, surely all housewives ereised bv some in Ihe selection of a proper ; brand of baking powder. Hie who doe not do so, whether the neglect is the result of ignoranc , or recklessness cannot free herself from the responsibility for the health, perhaps life, thereby endangered. No hoHsewife need be -ignorant of the quality of the composition rf k o tt i -t vlie iise tn le;ivpn ber bread, biscuit and cake. The official reports of the government chemists, who arc certainly unprejudiced, have been published and show very clearly the quality and strength of alt the linking powders in the market. The Boyal Baking Powder, which i accessible at every hand, is rejorted absolute ly free from lime, nltim, phosphatie acid, or any injurious ingre-. dient It is further stated by the niost eminent authorities of food hygiene that food leavened with it is more wholesome than whets rabedhyauy otLer method. Its use is therefore to "be commended. It is to be regretted that no other baking powder, w he n there are so many in the market, tome of which wiU find their way into tt-c, is free from all of these substsinces. The official anaiysts assure us, however, titat all except the Boyal contain either lime or ahmt. The housekeeper who regards the health of her loved ones should not only cider the Boyal, but make pe'somd examination to be sure that no other brand is sent to her in its place.
