A Baking Powder Trick.

nelghbOrs. The latest and most dishon-
cat OF these that has come to our notice
IL one by which certain manufacturers
OF baking powder have sought TO pre)u-

brands that have an established reputa-
tlon as the best and purest In the mar
ket, for the purpose Of introducing their
own. Their method, we are Informed,

suspecting are thus excited against the
baking powder submitted TO the no call

tity on hand suffers a.serious loss In
consequence.

The true domestic value Of baking

from this the best test for baking pow

which makes the most and best. TC
this practical test all the established
brands have been put, aud housekeepert
have very generally made up thelI
minds which they prefer. and the trick

that has been household fayorlte FOL
years will not be displaced by reason o.
any tricks which they may show.
