It is the liili
quality of Royal
Baking Powder
that has estab
lished its great
and world-wide
reputation.
Every house
wife knows she
can rely upon
it; that it makes
the bread and
biscuit more delicious and 'hole
some always the finest that can
be baked.
It is economy and every way
better to use the Royal, whose
work is always certain, never

There are many imitation baking
powders, made from alum. They
may cost less per pound, but
their use is at the cost of health.

Numerous inquiries have lieen
made as to what action was taken in
the last Legislature in regard to the
scalp law. To these inquiries we an
swer, no action was had on this mat

whole trouble arises from a decision
of one of the courts to the effect that
the scalp law was unconstitutional,
and after this decision the County
