“The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure,
for I have so found it in many tests made both for

I will go still further and state that, because of the facilities that company
have for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and for other reasons dependent
upon the proper proportions of the same, and the method of its preparation,
the Royal Baking Powder
is undoubtedly the Purest
and most reliable baking
powder offered to the public.

They go out almost as soon as lighted.
On Thursday night the writer in going

one half mile passed seven lamps, four

the summer the excuse was that Spiders
got into the t 1bes and obstruct-ed the
draft. If a moment was spent when
they were lighted to see that they were
going to burn properly, the trouble
would be obviated. It is useless to pay
what is expended and get practically
no return and the selectmen should see
that the work is properly done.
