sensation III political CT .cIcs, that gem
ucman being the first workingman that
has ever risen 10 the Ministry. The ap-
pointment is taken as an indication that

Complaint is frequently made by those
who use baking powders that they leave in
bread, biscuit, or cake raised bY them
dsagreeable bitter taste. This taste fol-
lows the use Of all impure baking pow
ders, and is caused either by their contain
ing alum introduced to make a cheap
articlc), by the impure aud aduIterated
character Of other ingredients used, or
from the ignorance Of their manufacturers
Of the proper methods Of combining them
These baking powders leave in the bread
residuum formed of lime, earth, alum, OF
other delcterious matters not always,
though frequently, tastable in the food, and
by all physicians classed as injurious to
health. The Royal Baking Powder is free
from this serious defect. In its use no re
siduum is left and the loaf raised by it is
always sweet, light, and wholesome, and
noticeably free from the peculiar taste com
planned of. The reason OF this is because
it is composed Of nothing but absolutely
pure materials, scientifically combined in
exactly the proper proportions of acid and
alkali to act upon and destroy each other,
while producing the largest amount of
raising power We are justified in this
assertion from the unqualified statements
made by the Government chemists. who
after thorough and exhaustive tests recon-
mended the Royal for Governmental
use because of its superiority over all other
in purity strength, and wholesomeness.
There is no danger of bitter bread or bis
cult where it alone is used.
