A QUESTION or HEALTH.
What Baking Powder Shall We Uss2

This plain question comes home to
every house keeper. We all desire
pure and wholesome food, and this
cannot be had with I'll. use Of inn
pure or poisonous baking powder,
There can be ~ longer a question
that all the cheaper, lower grades Of
baking powders contain either alum,
lime or phosphate acid. As loath As
we may be to admit so much against,
what may have been some Of our
household gods, there can be no gain
saying the unanimous testimony OF
the official chemists. Indeed, an
alysts seem to find 10 baking power.
entirely free from one OF these OBJ
jectionable ingredients except the
Royal, and that they report as chemi-
cally pure. We find some OF the
baking powders advertised as pure,
to contain, under the tests of Pro-
fsssers Chandler, Habirshaw and
others, nearly twelve per cent. Of
lime, while others are made from
alum with no cream of tartar. This,
we presume, accounts tor their lack
of leayening power as sometimes
complained of by the cook, and for
the bitter taste found in the biscuits
SO frequently complsined of by our
selves.
But aside from the inferiority of the
work done by these powders, the
physicians assure us that lime and
alum taken into the system In such
quantities as this are injurious. Their
physiological effects are indigestion.
dyspepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why
do these cheap baking powder max
ers use these things? Alum is three
cents pound, lime still cheaper,
while cream of tartar costs thirty five
or forty. The reasons for the chemi-
cal purity of the Royal Baking Pow
der were recently given in the New
York Times in all Interesting descrip-
ton of q new method for refining ar
gols, or crude cream of tartar. 1t
seems that it is only under this pro-
cess that cream of tartar can be freed
from the lime natural to it and rem
dered chemically pure; that the
patents and plant for this cost the
Royal Powder Company about half
a million dollars, and that they
maintain exclusive control Of the
rights. -..-,.... .sg
Professor McMurtrie, late chief
chemist of the Department of Agri-
culture, at Washington, D. c., made
an examination of this process, and
reported upon the results attained in
the refined c1eam of tartar. The fol-
lowing extract from his report would
seem to answer the question repeated
at the head of this article, and which
is so frequently propounded by the
housekeeper:
II have examined the. cream Of
tartar used by the Royal Baking Pow.
der Company in the manufacture of
their baking powder, and find 1t to
be perfectly pure and free from lime
in any form. The chemical tests to
which have submitted the Royal
Baking Powder prove it perfectly
healthful and free from every dele
terious substance. The Royal Baking
Powder Is purest In. quality and
highest in strength of any baking
powder of which have knowledge

What an optimist IL Doing.

Prof. Albert S. Bolles, Of Pennsylvania, who
Ii here attending the convention of statisticians,
is at the head of the bureau in his State and is .
man remarkably well posted in his line. At
present he is editing the Bankers Magazine, Of
New York. At one time he was professor in
the University of Pennsylvania, teaching law
aud political economy. Mr.. Bolles thinks that
the statisticians have q great work to
do in this country, and attaches great
Importance to it. During the coming
year be will investigate 10 his own State what
manufacturers are doing Or employees when dis
sbled. He has already conducted the investi-
cation to some extent and means to complete it
as soon as possible. He wants to find out wheth-
er wages are continued. and aid given in
such cases As are necessary; in short, investigate
the moral relations between employer and en-
ploye. He has SO far. he says. found this line
Of study q very interesting one. Prof.
Bolles is q great student of all labor
problems, and Is an optimist in
all his views. He believes that tho condition
of the laboring class is growing better daily in
spite Of complaints and strikes His Judgment
is that in the solution of all social and industrial
questions there must be more moral fibre and
not light. This has been his experience in all
his Investigations. He will read q paper on o
labor subject before the convention.

A Town Marshal Who Found His ONCE Ex-
pensive and Unremunerative.
James Sylvester. the ex-marshal of West In-

corporation for 5000 salary and 500 damages.
He served the town as peace officer from May 1.
1887. to May ], 1888. He says that it was al
ways the custom of the town trustees to meet
and FIX the salary of the marshal soon after his
election, but last year they deferred any action
until six months Of his term was gone. Then
they met and allowed him the magnanimous
sum of S48 per annum. He also complains that
the trustees refused TO provide a jail for the
keeping Of the prisoners. and he had to keep
them in the adjoining city of Indianapolis, all Of
which was very expensive to him. He thinks a
reasonable salary for his services would be 5000.
