ApsIyzfng the baking Powders.

Under the direction of TIE New York
State Board OF Health, eighty-fouT differ
eut kinds Of baking powders, embracing all
the brands that could be found for sale in
the State, we're submitted to examination
and analysis by Prof, c. +. Chandler, a
member Of the State Board and President
Of the New York City Board Of Health, as
sisted by Prof Edward q. Love, the well
known late United States Government chem
ist.
The official report shows that a large
number of the powders examined were
found to contain alum or lime; many Of
item 20 such an extent as TO render tdem
seriously Objectionable for use in the prep
aration of human food.
Alum was found in twenty. nine samples.
This drug is employed in baking powders
to cheaper their cost. The presence Of lime
is attributed to the impure cream of tartar
of commerce used IN their manufacture
Such cream Of tartar vas also analyZed, and
found to contain lime and other impurities
10 some samples to the extent OF % per cent.
of their weight.
All the baking powders OF the market,
with the single exception of Royal" (nOt
including the alum and phosphate powders,
which were long since discarded as unsafe
OF inefficient by prudent house keepeTS) are
made from the impure cream Of tartar of
commerce, and consequently contain a lime
to a corresp pOnding extent.
The only baking powder yet found by
chemical analysis TO be enfUely lree from
llWe and absolutely pure IS Uhe Royal
This perfect purity results from the eXclu-
sive use Of cream Of tartar specially refined
and prepared by patent processes OF the \.
Y. Tartar Co., which totally remove the tar.
trate of lime ad other impurities. The cost
Of this chem lily pure cream OF tartar Is
much greater than any other, and on ac-
count Of this greater cost IS used IN no pax
ing powder but the Roy al
Prot Love, who made the analysis OF
baking powders for the New York State
Board oi Health as well as for the govern
meuf, says OF the purity and Wholsomeness
OF Royal -
81 naya tested package of Royal Baking
Powder which I purchased in the open
market, and find it composed or pure and
wholesome Ingredients. II Is cream OF
tartar powder of high degree OF merit ana
or any injurious substances.

GUTWALD-Dfcd at the residence OF its par
ents in the East ward, this place, on Monday
morning. september I3. Iss5 Peter Herman,
youngest son of Andrew and Della GUtwald, aged
eleven months and fifteen days.
The little fellow died Of a complication Of dis
eases, the original trouble being whooping
cough, which Il contracted several weeks ago
and its suferngs were intense until death re
lieved it at the time above stated. Although it
had the care Of a kind and loving mother and the
attention Of competent physician. it got beyond
the reach Of human power and finally was called
by the good Lord, who says, Suffer little chill
dren TO come unto Me for OF such is the kingdom
OF Heaven" 70 enjoy eternal happiness. We
sincerely sympathize with the bercaved parents,
but are satisfied that they will be consoIcd in
knowing that what is their loss is the little fel-
low gain
The remains were Inferred in the Catholic
cen etery, this place, on Wednesday afternoon
having been conveyed there by little girls.

days
Sleep softly in thine early grave,
. tender morning blossom
No sweeter rest earth ever gave,
Than this within her bosom.
No surer refuge promised here,
Than this low mound can give thee
No bri ghtar crown than loving hands,
These summer days can weave thee.
But spirit innocent and free,
Thy rest above is dearer,
Thy promised heaven surer far,
Thy crown OF blossoms fairer.
We would not ask another lot,
A life on earth for thee.
Again where death can enter not
We hope thy face to see.
