Royal Baking Powder,
Strongest, Purest, Most Economical.
Certain baking powder makers are publishing falsified extracts
from the Government reports, with pretended analyserand certificates,
wherein an attempt is made to compare their baking powders with the
"Royal," or making bogus tests from house to house, their obvious
purpose being to counteract the recent exposures of the inferiority of
their own goods arising from their impurity, low strength, and lack of
keeping qualities as shown by the Government chemists and others.
As to whether any of these baking powaers c
equal to the "Royal," the official tests clearly deter
mine. When samples of various baking powders
were purchased from the grocers, and analyzed by
the United States Government Chemists and the
Chemists of State and City Boards of Health, the
reports revealed the fact that the "Royal" contained
from 28 per cent, to 60 per cent, more leavening
strength than any other cream of tartar baking pow
der and also that it was more perfectly made, of
purer ingredients, and altogether wholesome.
As these powders are sold to consumers at the same price, by the
use of the Royal Baking Towder there is an average saving of ovtr
one third, besides the advantage of assured purity and wholesomeness of
food, and of bread, biscuit and cake made perfectly light, sweet, and pal
atableadvantages not to be had in the use of the low grade, cheaply
made baking powders that contain lime, alum, and other impurities.

Advantage of Plattsmouth.
The high chool has been study
ing the past, present and tuture of
Plattsmouth in their general in
struction work. One question was
to name the advantages of Platts
mouth as a manufacturing center.
It thought that the advantages
named byIlenry Snyder were the
most complete and thinking they
wdl be interesting to our readers
we produce in full:
It is the gateway to the South
Platte country.
2. It is on the Missouri river, as
suring greni water privileges.
3. It is located by nature so that
the best of water-power can be se
cured from the Platte river.
4. It is located on two trunk line
rail roads, the C. H. & O. and M, P.
tints securing the best of shipping
facilities,
5. It is in direct and close con
nection with the great coal-fields of
Missouri, thus securing cheap fuel.
5. It has plenty of cheap land
thatcan be secured for manufac
turing purposes.
7. It has an energetic class of
businessmen, who are willing to
give time and money to secure
manufacturing institutions.
8. It is not influenced by labor
unions and will thus avoid all
troubles on account of strikes.
0. It has an endless supply of
lime-stone for building purposes
and for the making of lime.
10. It has a never-ending supply
of clay for the manufacture of tile
and brick, and two extensive brick
yards. 11. It is the center of the best
fruitgrowing section of the state,
mid needs a copper-shop to prepare
for the shipment of fruit.
12. It is in the center of the best
stock country in the world and
needs a packing establishment.
IX It is by nature the distribut
ing and collecting center to the
South Platte country, which can
raise the best sugar-beet in the
world; so a beet-sugar factory
would be an excellent investment.
14. It is the market for endless
quantities of straw and flax, which
would insure a properous paper
mill.
l.r It is the market for a never
failintr potato and corn crop, so
that a starch factory would be
paying investment.
111. It is surrounded by one of the
best wheat and oats regions in the
world, so that a cracker and oat
meal factory would not fail to pros
per.
17. It has an excellent system of
water works which secures
against lire and supplies an endless
imountof pure water for private
and manufacturing purposes,
18. It is located in a pocket form
ed by the Platte and Missouri
rivers which protects it from severe
storms, making a climate unsur
passed by any city iu the world.
10. It has ti natural drainage and
an extensive system of sewerage
which insures a good sanitary con
dition and good health.
20. It has an excellent system of
public schools and a high school
that is anxious to do what it can to
benefit the town mentally, morally,
and financially.
21, It has prospering church
organizations of every denomination.
1. It lias tne uest Hotel accom
modations of any city of its size in
the west.
23. It is the county seat' of Cass
county and a new $80,000 court
house is now being constructed
23. It has all the improvements
of a modern Jcity of 10,000 inhabit
ants and has more natural advan
tage for becoming a great manu
facturing city than Omaha. Any
nianufacturing'establishment that
would be a profitable investment in
Omaha would pay much better if
located in Plattsmouth. Capital
ists seeking profitable investments
in the great west will do well to ad
dress. He.NKY E. SXYIU-K",

Some of the udvnatages were
given iu the following answeres-,
Hecause it has plenty of men
needing employment who would
work cheaply.
It does not have many manufac
turing establishments so there are
plenty of room for more.
Hecause it has thirteen saloons.
It has plenty of rags and should
have a paper mill to manufacture
them.
It has good policemen.
jii'causea great many hogs are
raised in the vicinity of Platts
mouth.

ERE is what the manufacturer says in regard to Solid Silver Mot
at goods and Solid Nickel Silverware: "There has been a grow
ing demand for years for a grade of Spoons and Forks to take
the place of Solid silver ami plate ware. We have experimented
for some time to attain this end, and are now able to olTer 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 in assuring our customers that this ware is inferior to service on
ly to solid silver. It is a beautiful white color, is highly polished nud
can hardly be distinguished from pure silver. We recomend (his ware
especially lor hotels, restaurants and boarding houses, as it will stand
more hard usage than any oilier metal; is very tough and hard; will hold
its color and will outwear any plateware ever manufactured.'' Ml our
customers know Rogers' ware by reputation. This firm have manufac
tured plated ware since lMla, and their name is never put on goods that
are not of a high grade, so our customer can rest assured that they are
getting some very desirable goods when they (ret goods under theit
brand. Come in early and secure a share of these goods before it is too
late.
