The Star has mentioned thf> investiga tions made by the association in relation to physical education. This was the first subject considered by the association after Its organiza tion. THE HEALTH OF COLLEGE-BRED WOMEN. The health statistics of women college gradu ates collected by the association led to the efforts which are now being made to secure proper phy sical conditions for girls In preparatory schools. A committee has been appointed to prepare a leaf let on the subject of health In preparatory schools together with a series of questions which might serve as an aid In keeping record of the physical and social conditions under which school girls work. The circulars have been widely distributed. In many schools the sub-toDlcs treated?such as food, exercise, clothing, sanitary conditions and social excitement?are made the texts for Informal talks by the teachers, and the circulars are then sent to the parents. The secretary, In her report, speaking or the subject,says: "The foundation has been laid for a work which will last lndeflnitely. No striking results need be expected for ten years, at least,and In the meantime our members can use their lnfluen<-e in securing for school girls proper physical conditions whose value can never be esti mated In statistics."

A Princeton Banquet. DR. M'COSH SPEAKS HOPEFULLY OF THE FUTURE OF THE COLLEGE. The Princeton alunjnl held a banquet at Bellevue Hotel last night, Hon. Benjamin H. Brewster presiding. Addresses were made by Presiient McCosh, Prof. W. M. Sloane, Rev. Geo. B. Stewart, Chas. Emory Smith and Sam'l B. Hoey. There were a number of young men present, who enthu siastically cheered President McCosh. j President McCosh, in his remarks, referred to | the increase during his presidency lrom two hun dred and sixty-two to five hundred and seventy students, and from sixteen to forty-one pro fessors, beside a large Increase In build ings and apparatus and In the library. They had got, he said, over two millions and a half of money. "Whenwe went on In that style "he said, "we came to a crisis. It was said that there was no more to be given, but I have had to keep up the college for the last four years without get ting anything, and I say we have been In great diliiculty to pay our young professors. But now I see some prospects of a change. I do believe that during that period I have enriched myself two or three hundred thousand dollars, and I believe I can be able to present gifts to the college which were presented to me personally, worth at least $100,000, showing that In the presence of a great barrenness we have the prospects of a great fertility." He referred to the policy he had fol lowed in adding new branches of scholarship. Now, he sald,they nad a grand body 01 teachers. "In Princeton," he said, "we have not either law or medicine. I hope we never wllL We never could teach them as they do In the special schools and institutions throughout the country. 1 hope you will all come and see us some time soon. We are advancing rapidly, and I hope soon that we will proclaim our college equal to Harvard and Yaie, and all our rivals roundabout us are cordi ally invited to decide between us. 1 think that what I promised eighteen years ago we will do. We will get funds, aad new branches, and make a thorough and compact system In our courses. Stu dents wld not have to go abroad, but they can get these branches at home, and If the authorities will do It In my day, then I will set myseif with any vigor I may have left to the new work of building up Princeton as a college." Corroborating the B. & O. Deal* THE TELEGRAPH COMPANY SIGNS AN EXCLUSIVE CON TRACT WITH THE FRENCH CABLE.

It is a cream of tartar powder of a high degree or merit, and does not contain either alum or phosphates, or other injurious substances. E. Q. Love, Ph.D." "It is a scientific fact that the Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure. " H. A. Mott, Ph.D." " I hare examined a package of Royal Baking Powder, purchased by myseif in the market. I find it entirely free from alum, terra alba, or any other injurious sub stance. Henry Morton, Ph.D., President of Stevens Institute of Technology." " I have analyzed a package of Royal Baking Powder. The materials of which it Is composed are pure and wholesome. S. Dana Hates, State Assayer, Mass." The Royal Baking Powder received the highest award over all competitors at the Vienna World's Exposition, 1873; at the Centennial, Philadelphia, 1876; at the American Institute, New York, and at State Fairs throughout the country. No other article of human food has ever received such high, emphatic, and uni versal endorsement from eminent chemists, physicians, scientists, and Boards of Health all over the world. Note?The above Diagram illustrates the comparative worth of various Baking Powders, as shown by Chemical Analysis and experiments made by Prof. Schedler. A pound can of each powder was taken, the total leavening power or volume in each can calculated, the result being as indicated. This practical test for worth by Prof. Schedler only proves what every observant consumer of the Royal Baking Powder knows by practical experience, that, while it costs a few cents per pound more than ordinary kinds, it is far more economical, and, besides, affords the advant age of better work. A single trial of the Royal Baking Powder will convince any fair minded person of these facts. * While the diagram shows some of the alum powders to be of a higher degree of strength than other powders ranked below them, it is not to be taken as indicat ing that they have any value. All alum powders, no matter how high their strength. >e to be avoided as dangerous. REMENDOUS SACRIFICE OF SHOES.
