Practical Economy Baking powders made from alum or phosphate may be bought for a trifle less than Royal Baking Powder, which is made from cream of tartar, derived from grapes." Alum powders are not only cheap, but they differ greatly in leavening power. If a cheap baking powder is used for a fine cake and the cake turns out a failure there is a waste of costly materials worth more than a whole can of the cheap bak ing powder. Royal Baking Powder produces the finest food, and its use therefore, results in an actual saving. ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO. New York

swept down before an onrushing invasion. And when the injuries received then had been pronounced fatal by the attending physician the great beast refused to give up the ghost for more than a week, being constantly assured by one Theodore Hughesvelt that a great Western physician was coming to administer a stumlant and enthuse him with new vigor. But he did not arrive and the animal passed away, as all things and creatures must when their day of usefulness and service is past. Previous to the parade the multitude congregated on and near the river bridge and witnessed a gigantic bonfire as a feature to the . day’s activities. But they did not ' cease here, for the people continued to march the streets and shout for joy far into the night, thus ending one of the biggest political days in the history of Rensselaer and Jasper county. Brook also held a celebration on last Friday night, Morocco and Remington on Tuesday and Kentland blds welcome to all to

come and help her celebrate thia Saturday night. Wlhile the crowd in Rensselaer was quite satisfactory, the cold, raw wind and the fact that many of the farmers were busy husking corn, kept a great many away, and the failure of the colored fire torches to arrive as per schedule somewhat retarded the night program, but it was a great day nevertheless.
