FOOD FRAUDS.
The Shameful Use of Lime and Alum in
Cheap Baking Powders.

Cheap Baking Powders.
Many food frauds, such rs chicory coffee
or watered milk, although they are a swim.
die in u commercial sense, are often tOler-
ated because they do not particularly affect
article like baking powder, that enters
largely into the food of every family, and
is relied upon for the healthy preparation
o falmOSt every meal, is 80 made rs to carry
highly injurious, if not rankly poisonous,
elements into the bread to the imminent
danger of the entire community, it is the
duty Of the press to dcnOunce the practice
in the most emphatic terms.
Among recent important discoveries by
the food analysis is that by Prof. Mott,
the United States Government Chemist, OF
large amounts of lime and alum in the
cheap baking powders. These are, one
the most dangerous, and the other the
most useless adultcrantS vet found in the
low grade, inferior baking powders. 1t is
Il startling fact that of one hundred differ,
ent brands Of baking powders 50
far analysed, comprising all thOS" sold
in this vicinity, not II Of them, with
the single exception Of the Royal Baking
Powder, was found free from both lime
and alum. The chief service of lime is to
add weight. 1t is true that lime, when
subjected to heat, gives Off a certain
amount of carbOnic acid gas, but a quick
lime IL lelt-a CIuStic 80 powerful that il
is used by tanners To eat the hair from
hides of animals, and in disSecting rooms
to more quickly rot the flesh from the
bones ofdead subjects. A small quantity
of dry lime upon the tongue, OF in
the oyc, produces painful eff
ccts; how much more serious
must these effects he on the delicate mem
branes of the stomach, intestineS and kid
neys, more particularly OF infants and
children, and especially when the lime is
taken into the system day after day, and
with almost every meal. This is said by
physicians to he one OF the chief causes OF
indigestion, dyspepsia, aud most painful
diseases of the kidneys how so prevalent.
Instances of the most serious affections OF
the latter organs from drinking lime water
found in some sections OF the West are
noted in every medical journal.
AdulteratiOn with lime is quite us much
TO be dreaded as with alum, which has
heretofore received the most emphatic
condemnation from every food analyst,
physician and chemist, for the reason that,
while alum is partially dissolved and
passed off in gas by the heat Of baking, it
is impossible to destroy or change the ma
ture Of the lime in any degree, so that
the entire amount in the banking pow
der passes, with all its injurious properties,
into the stomach. When we state that
the chemists have found twelve per cent
or 0nc-eighth OF the entire weight of some
samples OF baking powder analysed, to be
lime, the wickedncSS Of the adulteratiOn
will be fully APPARENT.
Pure baking powders arc II OF the
chief aids TO the cook in preparing perfect
and wholesome food. While those are to
be obtained Of well-established reputation,
like the Royal, of whose purity there has
never been and cannot he a question, it is
proper to avoid all others.

AVE Him Away

A certain young man going out on the
motor last evening suddenly rose from his
seat to go out upon the platform ofthe car,
when there was waited to the ears of the
other occupants of the car the sound of
something falling and the tinkling OF
broken glass, and to their nostrilIthe night
breeze that permeated the car brought the
odiferous scent of bad whiskey. The young
man did not say a word but went outside
and did not return, while the conductor
was compelled to open the windows to pre-
vent the other passengers from becoming
intoxicated. The young man should have
his pistol pocket enlarged.
