THE IODINE TRICK.

It is astonishing to. what peculiar meth
DDS people will sometimes resort to endeavo,
to advance their own and injure others
interests. One of the latest and most unfair
expedients 10 that of certain manufacturer
of baking powder, who are endeavoring t.
prejudice consumers against all other pre-
parations than their own, by exhibiting
from house to house a test pnrporting to
show the quality of various powders. The
facts are, this SO called test, which We are
told simply consists in adding little iodine
to sample, can in no way reveal the true
value of baking powder, and is only
calculated to deceive and prejudice the
minds of the ignorant and unwary. Some
powders are injurious, but this can only
appear by analysis. The true value of baking
powder consists in the amount of leavenine
gas which is given off when heat and
moisture are added to the -four, and it is
only the chemist, with the aid of chemical
appliances, who can determine the volume
of gas which any powder can evolve.
We will venture to say that there is not an
article prepared for food that might not
be manipulated by chemical tests to prove
that something was wrong about it, and
when person goes into kitchen, or before
a housekeeper, who is not to be presumed
to understand chemical relations, aud per.
forms an experiment of even the simplest
character, it is not difficult to impress one
that something awful is the matter. As
to baking powders, we could suggest q
dozen tests that would be as ridiculous in
giving fair idea of their relative merits
to an uninstructed mind as the one here
mentioned. The truth is, that the best test
to make of baking powder is to try it in
making bread, and see which makes the most
and best. To this practical test all of the
established brands Of powder have been put,
and housekeepers have very generally made
up their minds which they prefer, and the
iodine testers will find ultimately that
households that have for years used a
favorite brand will not be apt to make a
change on the test propossd.-America''
