TUB SONG OF KHF. OURTSANTIIIMUJI .
Atla.l I have come to my throne,
No more gardens despised an unknown,
In forlorn
My blossoms are born;
No more in some corner obsoure
Do I drearily, sadly endure
The withering and blight
Of neglect light:
Oh, long lmyc I waited and late,
For this fair ami slow-coming fate,
Which tho years have foretold
As they slngingly rolled.
Oh, long have 1 waited and lone,
Bat at last on my blossomy throue,
The world doth declare
I am fairest of tho fair,
And queen of the autumn I reign.
With a swny that none may disdain,
1 once who did stand,
Despised in the land.

and may be set down as “no good.”

THE CRUCIAL TEST.
The severe analytical tests to which the various baking
powders have from time to time been placed have demon¬
strated clearly to the public the relative merits of the
different brands from a scientific point of vi«w. The Gov¬
ernment chemists, for instance, have found in their official
tests that the Royal Baking Powder gave off the largest
amount of leavening gas, and therefore was the most
economical for general use. They also found the Royal to
be absolutely pure, and the only baking powder that did
not contain either lime, alum, or bone or rock phosphate.
For these reasons they recommended it for Government
uses, and it is now used iu the War, Navy and Indian
departments.
But the crucial test of the kitchen is, after all, the
most satisfactory to the housekeeper. A baking powder
that never fails to make light, sweet, wholesome, and palat¬
able bread, biscuit, cake, etc., is the one that will be
selected by the practical housekeeper and received into her
kitchen for continuous use. This test the Royal Baking
Powder has stood for over twenty years without a failure,
and hence its reputation as the best baking powder made
has spread from house to house, until its use has become
as universal as its merits are unrivaled.
