Baking Fowder Company Wins Its Case
The decision of Judge Showalter in a re
cent case that eame u? before him sustains
the claims of the Royal Company to the ex
clusive use of the name *‘Royal’’ as a trade
mark for its baking powder, The special
importance of this decision consists in the
protection which it assures to the mill

ing Powder. The excellenco of this
articlo has caused it to bs highly

brand as most wholesome aud cfficient,
If other manu’acturers could sell under

Ing gas while casting, one being so
much tes3 {4 §ize than its fellow as to
give space for the loam forming the
mold between the two. No “pattern,”
as the term is generally used, is pro
vided. The two parts of the mold are
“swept” by “formers,” accurately fin
ished from thin iron to the form intend
ed for the inner and outer surfaces of
the bell, These “formers” are mount
ed and rotated over the applied loam.
Five courses of loam and elay are suc
cessively applied, ¥swept” and baked,
to ¢dmplete each mold. Before this
work is done, however, the inner flask
is wound near the top with a rope made
of hay. As the shrinkage is very great
as the castings ©¢odl, ‘dificilty would
be met with in getting the flask and
loam out of thé nearly parallel inside
top; this “pinch” is obviated by using
this destructible base, which permits
the collapse of the loam after the heat
of the metal has consumed the hay.
The five Courses laid on the flasks
are: Loam, & mixture of loam, fire clay
and manure; two successive coatings
of powdered fire clay, and, lastly, a thin
coating of brick and fire clay combined
with foundry facing. Each if these
coatings is baked in an oven before
the succeeding one Is applied. The
coatings are “swept” by tha formeps,
as applied, both in the inner and outer
flasks, by careful adjustments’ as to
thickness of materials, so that when
the exterlor mold s placed over the in
terior, a space corresponding to the
intended thickness and shape of the
bell shall exist. Inscriptions of em
bellishments to be made upon the bell
are provided for with the last coating
by means of a “knurl” or wheel, having
the desired motto raised upon its peri
phery, the wheel being carefully rolled
arotind the soft surfdce d4nd ledving its
imprint ifi the clay. Other designs are
impressed fron dies of the required or
nament, and the usual “beading” is ac
complished by notches in the edge of
the sweep.
The two parts of the flask being plac
ed” together are firmly help in position
by many clammps, the tendency of hot
bell metal to squeeze through and force
a separation of flasks being very great.
As the mold nears completion a fire is
started in a near-by reverberatory fur
nace, in which is placed the desired
charge of copper, and when the copper
is melted the tin is added in its propor
tion. Tho melted metal being ready,
the furnace is tapped, the bright stream
caught in a huge ladle swung over the
mold by a crane and poured into the
open mouth of the mold until it is filled.
After cooling and removal from the
mold the bell is usually polished with
sand and water In special revolving
grinding machines. The tongue and
clapper, the yoke and wheel are now
attached and the whole suspended in
its frame. In making a chime the bells
are, after completion, temporarily set
up and regularly tested by skilled bell
ringers, from the permanent chiming
stand of the foundry.
A bell of such propurtlvus as the large
one proposed for Milwaukee's city hall

Chine¢se Laundry Tickets.
The Chinzse washernien have 2 Sys
tem of ticketing a bundle of soiled
clothes based on the many gods and
goddesses of the laundry. Though it is
complicated, the laundryman seldom
delivers a bundle of washed clothes to
the wrong person.
IFurthermore, if the ticket is lost, the
chances are that you will not get your
linen, unless you are a particular friend
of the proprietor. Instances are on rec
ord where an American has gone to
court to force the Chinese to yield up
the washing, but the judge was not
convinced that the case of the white
man was a good one. :
The Chinese laundryman at the be
ginning of eaeh week makes out a
batch of checks, in duplicate, to be used
as wash tickets. He selects the name of
some god or goddess, or of some ob-
Ject, as the sun, the moon, or the stars.
To this name he prefixes a number, as
f*Moon, No. 1.” *Meon, ‘Ne: 2, and so
on.
Inthespace between the two legends—
for the signs are repeated twice—he has
his own name, as, for instance, “Wah
Lee.”
When a customer takes a bundle of
washing to the laundry, the Chinese,
first tearing a ticket in two in a ragged
fashion, puts 6ne-half on the packet for
reference; the other half he gives as a
receipt to the person who has brought
the package of laundry.
It must be presented when the laun
dry is demanded, and no fears need be
entertained that the package of clean
clothes will not be forthcoming, for
they are scrupulously exact in these
matters. j

courde left us but to oppose with ali our
might the reckless and fatal policy of
putting human beings to death without

the citizens of this country prepared to

and to go back to the penal methods of

It is not silver and gold, bnt white
blood and black blood that we are talk
ing about. The South Carolina (‘on
gtitutional Convention has decided
that a negro is a white man when, and
only when, his blood fia&--be«e;fiidiluted
to the ratio of one part in sixteen. If
hi: ancestors were all white except one
great-great grandmother, then he is
no longer a Negro, and he can marry
into the proudest family in the State.
Well, that is something. We kunew
that Negro blood was prepotent, and
that haif or three-fourths or seven
eights of the Caucasion brain and
blood could be quite overbalanced by
the one-half or one quarter or one
eichth Negro brain und blood; for
Cauecasians have not much progenitive
value; but it is a comfort to us white
people to know that a sixteenth of a
Negrois feebler than fifteen-sixteenths
of a white man, cr, eliminating the
fractions, fifteen white men really
amouant to more than one Negro. The
whole thing is humbling to our pride;
but we are pleased to know that there
is some limit to our humiliation, and
that the Negro's blood van be so hom
eopathically diluted that the white
man can emerge from the subjection
of four generations.—New York /Inde
peadent, Oct, 31, 189).
The Negro Day at thz Atlanta

po-ition was the oration of Prof. J.
W. E. Bowen Ph. D., ¢f Gammon The

bravely, courteously and arongly.
The keynote of it was the thought of
equal privileges in ¢duecation to be
granted to all races. .
Not the South aIOLZr, but also the
North, needs to hear what the educated
and aspiring Negro has tosay in de
fense of the highest ¢pportunities in

davger that the notion, which is to the
interestof many Southern people to
foster, that the Negrd wants nothing
more than an induspial education,
will become popular & the North. It
is made somewhat popilar by the fact
that those who have bedn putin ‘charge
of the distribution of| certain large
funds for Negro edtiation, possibly
with their Southern prejudices, have
‘made it a condition fir distributing
aid that the institutiory shall make a

colb Samuel . xx.,” 32-42 . Goldea
“EY TextiTrov. xvih o R

B>, “And Jonathan answered Saul, his
father, and said unto him, Wherefore shall
he be slain? What Lhath he done?”’ After
David had slain Goliath and had finished |
speaking with Saul, it is written that Jona
than, son of Saul, loved David as his own
soul and gave him his robe and garments
and sword anl bow and girdie (chapter
xviii., 1-5), and that Saul also set him over
his men of wat and would let him go no
more Homie; Bit when the wWwomeh sang
'Saul Hds slaifi hiB thoysands and David his
ten thousands” (xviii:; 7), thed Saul beécame
jealous and sought to take David’'s life.
Having rejected the Lord by his dis
obedience, he becams the prey of an evil
spirit, but the Lord was with David and
prospered him (xviii., 10-16). As Saul’s
persecutions of David increase®. David said
one day to Jonathain, ‘‘Asthe Lord liveth,
and as thysoul liveth; therd is but a ttep
between me and death” (xx., 3), but Jonathan
could not believe that his father meant death
to David and so agreed to seund his father
{xx., 12) in David’s absemce, and then let
David know. Saul’s answer was that David
must die (verse 31), henee Jonathan’s reply
as in this first.verse Sour lesson. :
33, “And Saul cask 4 javelin at bim to
smite him, whereby Jonathan knew that it
was determined of his father to slay David.”
If there was anger eno@gh in Sau! to kill
his own son, thea it was certainly a poor
prospect, humanly speaking, for David. We
see in Sanl what ,fiy become of & man when
he rejects God. #aul might have been the
Lord’s own representative, orél by God
and man, for everything was put within his
reach for his good. T
34, "ge was grieved fum. because
his father had dopne him shame,” There
fore he arose from the table and went away
without eating. It is easy to fast when the
heart i 3 grieved, and if our love to Jesus
Christ was more like the love of Jonathan
to David we would be more sensitiva con
cerning the slights put upon our Biviour
and not find pleasare and a degres of satis
fa~tion in persons and places anl things
which dighonor Him, Oh, for a whole heart
for Christ!
35. “Aud it came t 6 pass in the morning
that Jonathan went out into the fleld at the
time appointed with David, dnd a little lad
with him.” See thestory of this appoint
ment in verses 18 to 23 and note Jonathan’s
faithfulness in keeping it. Our comfort is
not in our faithfulness in keeping our word,
but in the faithfulness of our covenant keap
ing God and Saviour. See David’s comfort
when he came to his dying hour (1I Sam.
xxiii., 5. Seealso I Cor. i., 9; x., 13; I Thess.
v., 24; II Thess, iii., 3.
33. “And he said unto his lad, Rup,
fetch unto me the arrows whieh I shoot.
And as the lad ran he shot an arrow beyond
him.” Isuppose any lad would cheerfully
go anywhere with the king's son for ‘‘any
manner of service” (I Chron. xxviii.,, 21).
Think how cheerfully Samuel ran at the sup
posed call of Eli three times in succession in
one night, Let the question seareh us, “Am
I a ready and cheer?ul messenger for the
King and His Son at all times?” (II Sam,
xv., 15).
87. ‘“‘Jonathan criel after thelad and said,
Is not the arrow beyond thee?”’ See the sig
nificance of this in verss 22, How it must
have gone to David’s heart, for it was even
as he feared. He mus: sagarate himself even
from Jonathan, he must become a gtranger
and flee for hig life because an enemy is on
the throne which rightfully beiongs to him.
But it is all & part of the foréordained plan
for him, and God’s way for him to reach the
throne in due tims. Sze Eph. ii., 10; Math,
xvi., 24.
38, ““And Jonathan cried after the lad,
Make speed, haste, stay not.” Lnadditional
G i,b‘;.ous word for David from the heart that
bla.' § him as its own life, but it was for
-Q,' 9(d’s sake and justhecause Jorathanloved
"nim so; for it hurt Jonathan as much, if not
more, than David. All that God says or does
to us is infinite love; the very worst that can
come to usis love and goodness and mercy,
as God sees it, and we must trust Him.
39. “But the lad knew not aaything, only
Jounathan and David knew the matter.” So
we go on not knowing. He holds the key of
all unknown, and we are glad. When He
asked Philip about feeding the 5900, it was
only to prove him, for ‘“He Himself knew
what He would do” (John vi., 6). The lad
with the loaves knew nothing, but was evi
dently ready to be used, “Jesus kuew from
the heginning,” and that is enough,
40. **And Jonaihan gave his artillery (R.
V. weapons) unto hislad, andsaid unto him,
Go, carry them to the city.” The lad’sbusi
ness was simpiy to do what he was told; run
after the arrows, gather them up, bring
them to his mas:er and nowtakethem home,
His master knew what he was about, and the
lad did not need to know. There are many
things which we now do not need to know;
we do need to obey and to haveimplicit con
fidence in our Master, and in all that He does,
Thus in quietness and in confidence we shall
find strength (Isa. xxx,, 15). Whatsoeverthe
King does should please all His people (IT
Sam, iii., 36). P \ ;
41. “And they kissed one anotherand wept
one with another, until David exceaded.”
TLeir love was wonderful, passingthe love
of women (IT Sam. i., 26). There was noth
ing that they would nct do for each other if
it lay in the power of each other to doit.
Yet this was but the faintest shadow of the
love of Christ to ug, Jonathan’s love cost
him much and brought him much service,
yet it was steadfast to theend. David never
injured Jonathan nor rejected nor wounded
his love. The love of Jesus cost Him thirty
three years of absence from home and of hu
miliation and suffering indescribable, and it
was all for His enemies. Behold what man
neroflove ¢k Johm §ii.; 2,3). ~ =
42. **And Jonathan said to David, Goin
peace.”” And so they parted, each fiaving
tne peace of God in the midst of much tribu-
Jation. See John xvi., 33; xiv., 27; Math.
xxiv., 6. They met again, and Jonathan
strengthened David’s hand in God and bade
hjn fear not, telling him that he (David)
w ytld yet be king in Israel and he would be
nLxt to him (chapter xxiii., 17), Such selfre
nouncing is very rare. It is truly Christ
like. As next week’s lesson will be a Christ
mas lesson, and the next areview, we will
not return to the Old Testament story till
July, 1896. What bLetter thought could we
carry with us than that which is here shad
‘owed forth, the love of the King’s Son who
“TLoved me and fave Himself for me.” He
has given Himself and all ‘l2 henefits of His
finished work to each one 'wic.accepts Him,
He shall be King and we suall geizn with

zuma yesterday amid a concourse of
bishops and 50,000 l»flgx:ims from al
parts of the country. The apparition
of the Virgin to an Aztec in. 1523 upon
the ground upon which the Church of
Our Lady of Guadalupe has been erect
ed, and the mirgeulod¥ origin of the
picture of the heavenly visitor, which
is still exhibited painted upon the folds
of an ancient Aztec blanket, all this is
an oft-told story. The Virgin of Guad
alupe has become the patron saint of
Mexico; and one of the first acts of the
Congress of the new republic after
having achieved: independence from
Spain was to decree hier festival to be

of the Behemian Glub, “who did one of |
the best things I ever saw done In a
court of law. It was back in Nevada
in early days, when he was incliféd to
do a little more work than he does now
and. when mines were being sought for
by everybody. He lived out in the east
ern part of the State, and being an edu- I}
cated man, he was frequently utilized
by the miners in the settlement of dis- }
putes and the adjustment of knotty
questiond. Ofi ofie occasion a stranger |
stole some mining {mpiemefits from one !
of Wenban’s friends and the case was |
taken into the justice court, the defend- |
ant demanding a jury trial. Wenban
told the defendant that he would ap
pear for him and see that the affalr was
settled in the most approved Western
style. ok
“When court convened Wenba#i was
on hand fo dappear for his client. The
defenddnt took the stand and made a
statement touching upon the case, and
when he had finished the jidge said
‘eross-examine.’
~ “The self-made attorney looked stead
ily into the eye of the accused man
and blurted out in a loud voice: “What
did you ever do for a living besides
steal?
“ ‘Nothing,’ answered the defendant.
“‘Gentlemen of the jury,’ resumed
Mr. Wenban, ‘listen to the evidence of
the accused. I rest the case on the
testimony right here.’
“The judge was furious, but the jury
brought in a verdict of guiity. It was
the first and last case Wenban ever
took, and he certainly cleaned it up
#ith wonderful rapidity.”—San Frau

The Fastest Boat,
The fastest war vessel afloat is own
ed by France. The sea going torpedo
boat, the Forban, recently tried, built
under a comtract for a speed of 29 to
80 knots, easily made 30.2 knots, or
347 lana miles per hour, despite a
heavy sea and high wind, which shows
her to be faster than any other ship in
the world. The Forban is 144 feet long,
13 feet 6 inches beam, and draws 3 feet
of water. She has two screws, and her
engines are capable of developing 3,200
horse power. She carries two 37-milli
metre (1.45 inches) quick-firing guas,
and two torpedo tubes above water.

Some say that the hypo
phosphites alone are sufficient
to prevent and cure consump
tion, if taken in time. With
out doubt they exert great
good in the beginning stages;
they improve the appetite, pro
mote digestion and tone up
the nervous system. But they
lack the peculiar mediciral
properties, and the fat, found
in cod-liver oil. The hypo
phosphites are valuable and
the cod-liver oil is valuable.
Scolls Emulsion.
-,
of Cod-liver Oil, with hypo
phosphites, contains both of
these in the most desirable
form. The oil is thoroughly
emulsifieds .that is, partly di
'-’f'gés%eg,@ _ Sensitive stomachs
can befln emulsion when
the rawOfl cannot be retained.
As the hypophosphites, the
medicinal agents in the oil,
and the fat itself are each good,
why ngls have the benefit of

and has never been equalled.
