A TRIUMPH OF CHEMISTRY. Mot
outstanding the prevalent opinion that
common Saleratus was poisonous and
mlschlevous ia its effects upon the hu-
man system, 1t continued to be used
because there was no substitute known.
The poisonous properties were not,
however, essential, and starting upon
this basis, Mr.. DeLand applied HIM
self to the discovery of q process to
produce a pure article. His research
es were not confined to this country,
bat extended to Europe, and were en-
lnently successful It was glorious
triumph Of Chemistry when the pure
Chemical Saleratus was produced, and
made glad thousands who were Justly
afraid to use the article commonly in
use. The Chemical Salcratus makes
pure, light and wholesome bread, and
it is made only by B. D. DeLand &
