Established
Facts:
That the Royal Baking Powder is the oldest
and purest baking powder, and the greatest
in leavening strengtn.
VThat it is free from every injurious substance.
That it makes lighter, sweeter, more nutritious
and healthful food than any other.
The Royal Baking Powder Company refines its
own cream of tartar in its own mammoth re
finery, and thus insures its unvarying quality.
There is used in the manufacture of the Royal Baking
Powder more than half of all the cream of tartar consumed
in the United States for all purposes. This is required
and must be chemically pure, and chemically pure cream
of tartar could not be obtained in the markets of this coun
try or Europe, which necessitated the building of special
works, and the employment of special processes.
All other baking powders, when analyzed, show
traces of lime and sulphuric acid, which arise
from the impurities of the materials bought
in the market, which their manufacturers use.
This is whv the Roval Bakincr Powder is the
Ay only absolutely pure baking powder made.

Russian Relief Fund.
Cass county as usual, is at the
front again, with one of the most
liberal donations to the Russian
Relief Fund, and it will be made i n
a way that will receive the approv
al of all those interested. A. B.
Todd, Aaron Loder and Jacob
Tritsch, county commissioners,
called on Governor Thayer yester
day and announced that Cass conn
ty would give 000 bushels of corn.
It will be bought and paid for at
once by private parties who will
afterwards by reimbursed by the
county commissioners out of the
county general fund. The corn will
cost $180. It is claimed by the com
missioners that by using county
funds the expanse will be less than
1 mill for each inhabitant, a cheaper
plan than that of receiving and
handling ' small J contributions of
corn offered by farmers or others.
It is their idea also that the cost of
the purchase will be borne by the
people generally instead of allow
ing only a few to make the dona
tions as would be the case other
wise.

The End of 18tft
To the young the years speed not
fast enough, to the old they are too
short. The young employ the
closing of one year in ambitions
planning for the next, the aged
muse over the events of the past
and contemplate the mysteries of
future. In the lives of some the
year has proved a memorable one,
while in those of others it is sug
gestive of no special events. The
hopes of one have reached fruition,
the aspirations of another have
fallen short of success, and thus the
last days of December brings alike
pleasant and sad memories. What
ever the year 1801 has brought to
us, there is a valuable lesson to be
learned. If any undertaking upon
which we have entered has proven
unsuccessful, we can now, on look
ing back over the ground, see
more clearly the cause of our fail
ure. No lesson is so forcibly
learned as that born of experience.
A past failure ofttimes point to a
future success, if we but profit by
the lesson. No year is wasted
which brings to us a clear realiza
tion of our individual worth, and
its best employment. The experi
ences of the old year will make our
successes during the new more as
sured, for we will have learned
what shoals to avoid in the sea of
life. If our bark have just grouud
over rocky reefs with but slight
injury, let us feel thankful tint we
were not entirely wrecked. To be
successful, the truth has been
taught that the best success is that
which is born with modefty and a
humble exterior. It is a poor suc
cess that brings with it an outward
self-consciousness of our talents
on gifts. The most admired and
beloved men and women are
those who combine prosperity with
modesty. And thus to all the year
can be fruitful of good results, if
we but extract from mr individual
experiences only that.which will be
the most profitable, for us to remem
ber. Then we tdiall be the better
prepared to enter upon the new
year with wisdom, zeal and energy.

rtrj' al goods and Solid Nickel Silverware: "There has been a grow
frjri ing demand for years for a grade of Spoons and Forks to take
bXli Ibe place o( Solid silver and plate ware. We have experimented
for some time to attain this end, and are now able to offer the public our
Rogers Metal and Rogers' Solid Nickel Silver. We guarantee this metal
superior to any Nickel Silver manufactured and have the greatest confi
dence i.i assuring our customers tlmt this ware is inferior to service on
ly to solid silver. It is a beautiful white color, is highly polished and
can hardly be distinguished from pure silver. We reconiend this ware
especially for hotels, restaurants anil boarding houses, as it will stand
more hard usage than any other metal; is very tough and hard; will hold
its color and will outwear any i.lateware ever manufactured." All our
customers know Rogers' ware by reputation. This linn have manufac
