for apprising them of the special efforts
at present being made to dispose of sucn
powders in this vicinity.
The prOprietors of some of the worst
of these powders are now going from
house to house, trying by means Of a
trick, or so called test, with heat and
water, to show that their article is as good
as the Royal Baking Powder, making the
comparison with this brand because
everybody recognizes it to be absolutely
pure and wholesome, the object Of
course, being to supply their own goods
in place Of the Royal, which housekerpcrs
have for so many years relied upon TO
puff up the morning biscuit, aud TO make
the light, palatable, and wholesome ROLL
cake, and pastry for which It is famous.
The hOusekccper will dn weI 10 be on

away in samples, or sought to he miro

Of other goods we'll known to be pure aud
reliable, have no merits of their own, and
have failed to find purchasers through

that one Of these tramps is trying To in
