Ice Caused tglj Fall.
Miss Sallie McDonald is a
daughterof WilliamMcDonald who
several years ago lived on the F.
McN. Johnston farm south of
town, and she has many friends,
on this side of the mountain.
Mis3 McDonald is now a dress
maker and has rooms on the sec
ond floor of the Aughinbaugh
building in Chambersburg. Last
Thursday evening she stepped
out onto the second-floor porch to
shake a rug. The sleet had caus
ed the porch to be covered with
a sheet of ice, and as Miss Mc
Donald gave the rug a shake her
feet slipped, she lost her balance
fell against the balustrade which
gave away causing Miss McDon
ald to fall headlong into a pile of
lumber in the yard below. Mrs.
Mitten who has a store on the
first floor under Miss McDonald's
rooms, heard the noise, went in
to the yard and found Miss Mc
Donald terribly injured by the
fall. Three doctors were sum
moned and the injured lady has
tened to the Chambersburg hos
pital, where she is resting com
fortably, with a fair prospect of
recovery.
A Distinctive Reason
. What is the chief reason for the superi
ority of Royal Baking Powder?
There are several good reasons, but there
is one which distinguishes Royal from other
baking powders.
This reason, which every woman should
know, is that Royal Baking Powder is made
from cream of tartar, which comes from
grapes. This means p healthful fruit origin.
It means natural food as distinguished from
mineral . substitutes used in other baking
powders.
There is no alum nor phosphate in Royal
Baking Powder.
