ROYAL

Baking Powder.

INDISPENSABLE FOR PURE AND WHOLESOME FOOD.

Royal Baking Powder is made from cream of tartar, a product of the grape, and the most healthful of all fruit acids.

Royal Baking Powder vesiculates the dough by mechanical means, without fermentation, and in no way affects or changes the constituents of the flour. There is no destruction of the gluten or sugar, but all those elements are preserved which are intended by nature, when combined in our bread, to make it literally "the staff of life."

Fresh bread, cake, biscuit, griddle-cakes, etc., raised with Royal Baking Powder, may be eaten with impunity by persons of dyspeptic tendencies or the most sensitive stomachs.

Food for the sick requiring to be leavened is made perfectly wholesome and more nutritious by the Royal Baking Powder than by any other vesiculating agent.

INSOMNIA

China's favorite punishment of criminals is the continuous prevention of sleep. After seven or eight days of this excrutiating torture the victim becomes either a maniac or a corpse..

Thousands of afflicted 'men and women are praying daily for the touch of "Nature's sweet restorer." It is the recognized remedy par excellence for all maladies and disorders.

Daniel's Concentrated Tincture
Passiflora Incarnata,

a preparation of the May Pop or Passion Flower, possesses the
virtue of inducing healthful sleep which, disappearing, leaves
the patient in a normal state, with nerves reposeful and mental
faculties refreshed.

In the various diseases concomitant to nerve derangement (as the Physician will infer) Daniel's Passiflora acts speedily and effectively.

Samples supplied, Physicians prepaying express charges.

the ulcer being scraped, with no very marked relief at first, until urotropine was given in 4 gr. doses three times a day. From this time onwards she put on flesh, and took her food with relish. The frequency of micturition lessened, until now she is able to retain the urine in the bladder for four hours at a stretch, whereas previous to this she had to micturate every half hour. I do not know any drug that acts so beneficially in cystitis with frequency of micturition as urotropine. It renders the urine clear and prevents decomposition, thus favoring resolution and healing of the parts. By J. Pollock Simpson, M. D.-The Therapist.

FORMS OF TREMOR AND THEIR CLINICAL CHARACTERS.-R. T. Williamson states that the relation of tremor to voluntary movement enables us to arrange the cases into three groups; but there are other sub-varieties.

1. Tremor occurring during repose of the limb, but ceasing or diminishing on voluntary movement, with attention tremor which ceases when an object is grasped or when the hands. are held out. The tremor in paralysis agitans is usually of this form.

2. Tremor occurring only on voluntary movement and ceasing during repose (intention tremor). This is the form of tremor in disseminated sclerosis, even at an advanced stage; but several other forms of tremor, at a very early stage, occur only on voluntary movement.

ular variation of temperature of about one degree during that time. This specific element or spore reproduces within and of itself, and with each successive reproduction the spores become less vigorous, until finally fertility ends, reproduction ceases, and the active phenomenon-disease in this particular case-is at an end. If a patient be infected with vigorous spores the attack will be malignant, severe and abrupt, while if the spores of infection be such as would be found after several successive reproductions, the attack would be mild. Cases that increase in malignancy may have been infected with mixed spores, the cross resulting in increased vigor. Repeated interbreeding would of course end in failure to reproduce, but owing to the severity and prolongation of the attack the patient's vitality may end first.-Indiana Medical Journal.

THE MALIGNITY OF VESICULAR MOLE. F. La Torre believes that after the expulsion of a mole, if cells possessing the power of proliferation remain in the uterine muscle walls, they may continue to increase, and by their degeneration produce a malignant tumor, a deciduoma. There appears, however, to be a benignant as well as malignant form of mole, hence, although every patient who has expelled a vesicular mole should be carefully watched, it is well not to remove the uterus until the symptoms characteristic of deciduoma appear.—La Clinica Obstetrica.

MALARIA WITH SYMPTOMS OF DISSEMINATED SCLEROSIS. -For years it has been known that the nervous system is involved in malarial cases, but comparatively few careful and conclusive studies of tissues and vessels implicated have been made. In the American Journal of the Medical Sciences Wm. G. Spiller reports a case which presented well-marked symptoms of disseminated sclerosis, and in whose capillaries of the central nervous system large numbers of malarial parasites were conclusively demonstrated.

The three forms of malaria with symptoms of disseminated sclerosis distinguished by Torti and Angelini (quoted by Spiller) are: (1) Cases in
