A Fraud upon HOusekeepers.
The success attending the sale of Pyle's Dietitic
Saleratus during the past ten years, has made it
staple article that is sold about as close as flour or
sugar. But among the grocerymen there are those
who resort to very disreputable means to dissuade
their customers from the use of this celebrated ar
tcle, Tor the purpose of supplying something cheap
er, from which they derive larger profit. House.
keepers do themselves great injustice by submitting
to such imposition and incur the risk of consuming
unwholesome IL not dangerous material, which,
though pleasing to the eye, may be very unfit to
enter into our daily Bread.
Pyle's Saleratus is always put up in pound pack
ages, and ttey that persist in getting it will never
have occasion to regret the effort. All First Glass
drocers keep it.
