Official Expressions—“Royal” found to be the only absolutely pure baking powder. j' Governor Hill, of Hew York (says a reporter of tho N. T. Tribune), says: “I have been Astonished latoly #t the extent of the adulteration of food. It would soem that every thing wo cat is adul terated. * * This adulteration of groceries is bocoming a na tional evil—one that wo shall have to adopt severe means to check,” The machinery of the law cannot bo put at work too speedily or too vigorously against this wholesale adnlteration of the things we eat. Both the health and the pockets of the people demand protection. There is no articlo of food in general use more wickedly adul terated than baking powder. Tho Now York Stato Board of Health has analyzed 84 different brands purchased in tho State, and found most of them to contain alum or lime, many to such an extent os to render them seriously objectionable for use in food, n* •' L ' ' The sale of adulterated baking powders has been prohibited by statute in several States. It will be in the interests of tho public health when their sale is made a misdemeanor everywhere, and the penalties of tho law are rigidly enforced. The only baking powder yet found by chemical analysis to bo entirely free from lime and absolutely pure is the “Royal.” This perfect purity results from the exclusive use of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared by patent processes, wlueh totally romovo from it the tartrate of- lime and other impurities. The cost of this chemically pure cream of tartar is much greater than any other. Tito high grade of the Roy:.'. Baking Powder has been fully established by official chemists. Prof. Lovi, who made tho analyses of baking powders for the New York Stato Board of Hoalth, as well as for the Government, certifies to the purity and wholesomeness of the “Royal.” Prof. H. A. Mott, late Government chemist, says: “It is a scientific fact that tho Royal Baking Powder ia absolutely pure.” Dr. E.' H. Bartley, chemist of the Brooklyn Department of Health, says (April 24, 1885): “I have recently analyzed samples of tho Royal Baking Powder, purchased by myself in the stores of this city, and find it free from limo in any form.” Prof. McMurtrie, chief chemist U. 8. Department of Agri culture, Washington, D. C.,says: “The chemical tests to which I have submitted tho Royal Baiting Powder prove it perfectly healthful, and free from every deleterious substance.” Bread, cake, biscuits, etc., prepared with Royal Baking Powder will be lighter, sweeter, and more wholesome than if made with any other baking powder or leavening agent- address orders for DIAMONDS, WATCHES rP JEWELRY TO J.
