Baking Powder Bfll Passed

Rsy the Minnesota Senate
 The recent newspaper discussion of the dangerous qualities of am monia comes from the alarming in crease of it's use in baking powders People who absolb 1t in smal quantities from day to day suffer from slow ammonia poisoning Taken internally in sufficient quantities it eats away the coating' of the stomach and intestines anC causes death. Slow ammonia poisoning produces various forms of stomach trouble.
 Not one woman in ten thousand would use an ammonia baking powder if she knew it. Such pow ders not only undermine the health but Ammonia imparts Q sallow and blotched complexion.
 Following is the bill recently passed by the Minnesota Senate. It's the danger signal which the law throws out for the protection of the people.
 A EsiEl for am Act to ERegElnte
 the Traffic in Baking
 Powders.
 Section 1.-Any person who shall knowingly sell or procure the sale, or offer for sale of any pack age or can of Baking Powder, con- taining any Ammonia in it, not distinctly, legibly and durably branded, stamped or marked in a conspicuous place with the words in the English language "This Baking Powder contains Ammo mia" in letters of great pica, or any letters equivalent thereto Ill length, shall be guilty ofa misdemeanorand punished by a fine not less than $20 nor more than $50; shall be con- fined ill the County Jail not less than ten or more than twenty days or by both fine and imprisonment, at the discretion of the court.
 Section 2.-The sale or offer for sale of the substance mentioned ill the foregoing section in packages not stamped, marked, branded or labelled as therein required, shall be prima-facie evidence of know]- edge of the character of said sub stance, on the part of the person so selling or offering for sale and his employer.
 Section 3.-This Act shall be in force on and after its passage.
 NoTE.-An incident occurred in the house when the senate bill came up for passage, in reference to an amendment proposed by MT. Diment- This was opposed by sev- eral members. MT. Feig said that if the bill as 1t came from the senate was al light then the amendment was all wrong. The amendment compelling the print ing of the word Ammonia" on the label only affected the Royal Bak- ing Powder, and 40 wonder they felt the senate bill was a blow at them.-St. Paul Dispatch.
