BAKING POWDERS CONTAINING LIME
Why Royal is Absolutely Pure

Analysis shows the presence of Tartrate of Lime in
several brands of Baking Powder placed upon the
market
"PRICES" Baking Powder contains Tartrate Of
Lime.
'PEARL' Baking Powder contains Tartrate of Lime.
"GROFFS SNOW-FLAKE'' Baking Powder contains
Tartrate of Lime.
"DELANDS" Baking Powder contains tartrate of
Lime.
All BULK Baking Powders contain Tartrate of Lime
The presence of this substance in the above named
Baking Powders results from the Of inferior Cream
Tartar in their manufacture. The Cream OF Tartar OF
the market, from which they made, contains Tar
trate of Lime in amounts varying from SIX to ten per
cent and hence these powders contain this lmpurty as
foreign substance to corresponding extent which is
of value but positive detriment in any powder in
which it is found.
The ROYAL Baking Powder is made from cream Of
tartar specially refined and prepared for It's use by pat
ent processes by which the tartratc of lime is wholly
eliminated. This highly important result has been at
tanned only with great care labor, and expense In
money alone quarter of million dollars has been IN
vested in patents machinery and appliances by which
the crude cream of tartar being procured direct from
the wine districts of Europe and subjected in this cou-
try these exclusive processes is rendered entirely
Free only from the objectionable tartrate of lime
but from other foreign substances. This adds greatly
to the cost of manufacturing Royal Baking Powder butt
as all it's other ingredients selected and prepared
with the same precise care and regardless of labor and
expense article is produced that is entirely tree
from any extraneous substance and absolutely pure III
all respects No lime, earth, alum, impurity of any
kind can by nadvertence by the of aduterased
articles or otherwise, be introduced into the "RoyaI
and it contains ingredients except those certified ny
the most eminent chemists necessary to make pure
wholesome, and perfect baking powder
1t costs more to manufacture the Royal Baking Pow
der than any other but it is, shown by chemical anal
ysis, the only absolutely pure baking powder made

LIKE HIS FATHER,

He was Afflicted with Stone in the BIad-
der, Also, Lik Him, was Cured by the
Use of DIR. David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy tof Rondout, N. ".
Mr.. 8. W.. Hicks, of Pleasant Valley,
Duchess Co., N. Y, the son Of Mr.. E. s..
Hicks, whose name may have appeared in
this journal in connection with an article
similar to this, was, like his father, afflicted
with Stone in the Bladder, only that his
case was more serious than his fathers.
h e'father advised the son to write to DIR.
David Kennedy, of Rondout, N. Y, who,
he said, would tell him what to do. DR..
Kennedy replied, suggesting the use Of
KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY,
which had worked SO successfully in the
fathers case. Mr.. Hicks, who had been
assured by the local physicians that they
could do nothing more for him, tried FA.
VORITE REMEDY. After two weeks use
of it he passed a stone x of an inch long
and Of the thickness of a pipe-stem. Since
then he has had no symptoms of the return
of the trouble. Here is a sick man healed.
What better results could have been ex-
pected? What greater benefit could medi-
cal science confer? The end was gained;
that is surely enough. DR.. Kennedy as
sures the public, by a reputation which he
al not afford to forfeit or imperil, that the
FAVORITE REMEDY does invigorate tho
blood, cures liver, kidney and bladder COM
plants, as we'll as all those diseases and
weaknesses peculiar to females.

Bones on the Farm.

A solution of potash will reduce bone
to a fine condition and make it availa-
BILE for plant TODD. Most farmers will
use wood for fuel, and the ashes from
the fifteen or twenty cords used in a
year, if saved, would reduce all the
bones ordinarily within reach of the
farmer. The old-fashioned leach that
used to stand at almost every farmers
back door for s~oap-making, was a
COOL continuance for reducing the
bones. But any tight, strong cask or
box will answer quite as well for this
purpose. Water poured upon the ashes
makes a I've, or solution of potash,
strong enough to decompose the bones.
The casks should stand under cover, SO
that the quantity of water applied to
the bone and ashes may be under con-
troll. The time it will take to reduce
the bone to a powder will depend upon
the amount of potash in the ashes and
attention bestowed upon the process. 1t
is essential that the ashes and bono
should be closely packed in the mass,
and that they be Kept in a moist state,
adding water as it evaporates from the
surface. The finer the bone before it
is packed in the ashes the sooner
will it be reduced. The process can be
hastcned by putting into the mass afew
pounds OF common potash. But this is
only necessary to save tine. Ashes
from hickory, or any of the hard woods,
contain sufficient potash to decompose
the bone. When the mass is soft enough
to break down with a spade or shovel,
it can be mixed with land plaster, dried
peat, or loan, to make it convenient
for handling. It is a concentrated fer
%tilizer, to be used with discretion in the
hill, or applied as a top-dressing to
growing crops in the garden or field.
We are quite sure that any II who
uses this preparation of bone and wood
ashes, and secs the vigorous push it
gives to garden and other crops, will be
likely to continue it. But many farmers
near sea- ports andrailroad stations $, use
coal mainly for fuel. and will have to
resort to a hand OF horse-mill to use up
the waste bones. Small mills are ex-
tensively used by poultry men for crush
ing oyster shells as we'll as bone, and
the machinery can be adjusted to break
the bone coarsely for hen feed. The
oil and gelatine of the bones have an
%alimentary value, and, turned into eggs,
pay much better than when used as a
fertilizer for the soil.-Wm. Cyt, IN

Vinegar is better than ice for keep
ing fish v e night. Housekeepers who
are obliged TO be economical should
have their fish sent home toward night,
and then. by putting a little vinegar
on the fish, keep it perfectly we'll even
in very hot weather. Fish is really inn
proved in flavor under this treatment.
Fish which has been kept in
ice during the night, and been
exposed on the shop board during the
day, being frequently watered to make
it look less stale, undergoes changes
which destroy both flavor and nourish-
ment.-1he Household.
