DESERVED OFFICIAL RECOGNITION
rao GOvefhn,ent Examination of Baking Powders nosaI OmciaIiy Reported Pure.

The reports of tho Government an alysts, as made public from time to tlme in the official reports, form useful sub jects for study. A great deal of atten- ton is devoted to the examination of baking powders, and very properly so, for they are articles of general use, and many of them beiug so grossly adultera. ted all possible information should be given to enable consumers to distinguish between the good and the bad
 A large number of these articles have been analysed, the samples being collec- ted from dealers in all sections. The impurities found were principally alum and lime, but unwholesome. The alum is used in place of cream of tartar be- cause of ita low cost. Tho lime, both tartrlte and sulphate being found, was present, from the use of improperly re- fined cream of tartar.
 The analysts found and reported the Royal Baking Powder to be pure, free from lime, alum and phosphatic acid, and of high leayening strength A complete analysis would undoubtedly have shown no baking powder except the Royal en- tirely free from some one of these objeo tionable ingredients This, we presume, accounts for the lack of leavsnng power in the other powders, as sometimes com plained of by the cook, and for the bitter taste found in the biscuits so frequently complained of by ourselves,
 The reasons for the chemical purity of the Royal Baking Powder were recently given in the New York Times, in an In teresting description oi new method for refining argols, or crude cream of tar tar. It seems that it is only under this process that cream of tartar can be freed from tue lime natural to it and rendered chemically pure; that the patents and plant for this cost the Royal Baking Powder Company about half million dollars, and that they maintain exclusive control of the rights.
 This official recognition of the purity and value of the Royal Baking Powder by the Government will add to the al. ready wide popularity of that article, and daseryedIy so.

We want every mother to know tLat croup can be prevented. True croup never appears without warning The first sympton is hoarseness; then the child appears to have taken cold or cold may have accompanied the hoarse- ness from the start After that pe- eular rough cough is developed, which IS followed by the croup The time to act is when the child first becomes hoarse; few doses of Chamberlain Cough Remedy will prevent the attack. Even after a rough cough has appeared the disease may be prevented by using this remedy as directed. It has never been known to fail. Fifty cent and Sl bottles for sale hy II, c. Hitchcock.

There seems to be misepprehension by some as to the amount of costs ac- cruing after delinquency. This is oc- casionod by tho notice of the tax collec- tor which, in accordance with the law governing said notice, mentions only the main cost of interest.
 For the benefit of those who are la- boring under the impression that the only cost on delinquent taxes prior to the sales in March is interest at l per cent. per month, we quote the new law passed March 18th 1891, Act No. S2 < Against each piece of real es- tEte, lot or parcel of land separately assessed, and on each assessment of personal property the tax on which is q lien on the real estate, for which judgment is asked at the trial, the court shall include in the judgment for taxes one and one-half per cent per month for the time said taxes were de linquont and unpaid, as penalty for delinquency, and also for the costs of publishing that portion of said delin- quent list, containing the description of the properly, either real or personal, against which judgment is rendered as aforesaid, together with the costs and fees of such proceeding so far as they relate to such property There shall bo taxed as costs in such proceeding the sum of ono dollar in addition to court costs, and cost of publication, upon each separate piece of property whether real or personal, described in said delinquent list.
