what Baking Powder Shall We Use
cry housekeeper. We all desire pure and
Wholesome food, and this cannot be had
with the use Of impure or poisonous bak-
ing powder. There can be no longer
question that all the cheaper. lower grade
of baking powders contain either alum.
lime or phospahtic acid. As 10th as we
may be to admit SO much against what
gods, there can be no gainsaying the unan
imous testimony OF the official chemists.
Indeed, analysts seem to find no baking
powder entirely free from some one of
these Objectionable ingredients except the
Royal, and that they report as chemically
pure. We find acme of the baking pow
ders advertised as pure, to contain, under
the tests of Prof. Chandler Hablrshaw and
others, nearly twelve per cent Of lime,
while others are made from alum with no
cream of tartar. This, We presume, ac-
counts for their lack of leaveniDg power

and for the bitter taste found in the biscuits
