IN EVERY Receipt that calls for cream

the Royal Baking Powder. Better results
will be obtained because of the absolute

Royal. It will make the food lighter

ARTIFICIAL RUBY CASE
NOT YET DECIDED
APPRAISERS DECIDE AGAINST
STRANA'HAN WHO APPEALS
TO THE COURT.
It Is a Question of 10 or 20 Per Cent
Duty—Are Artificial Rubies a Menu
factored Product—Collector Strane
han Says Yes—The appraisers Say
No—Which Is What?
Associated Press.
New York. April I.—A decision
which rhe precious atone dealers have
been awaiting with some anxiety
was reached yesterday by the board
of I'nlted States gcderal appraisers
in the reconstructed ruby case. The
board sustained a protest against the
action of Collector Strfnahan who
classified artificial rubles as manu-
factured articles dutiable at 20 per
cent. Lnder the Imani's decision the
articles arc classed for customs pur-
poses with natural rubles and are dull
able at in per cent. It Is supi owed
that the ruby case will affect other
kinds of precious stones including
emeralds.
The dealers in natural rubies have
argued that if the government should
classify artificial rubies with the
natural product the trade in the lat-
ter would suffer. I'nscrupulous deal-
ers. it was contended would be en-
abled by such a classification to sell
the product of the factory as natural
rubies. General Sharretts wrote the
opinion fn wnich he said that recon-
structed rubies are compound of the
same chemical constituents as the
natural stones—oxide of chromium
and aluminum.
Ilie treasury department will ap-
peal to the courts from the decision
of the board.
