HOW CAN THE DANGER BE AVOIDED.

HOW CAN THE DANGER BE AVOIDED:
The reported cases of poisoning from the
use Of alum baking powder have awakened
the public to the serious danger which men,
aces the health Of the people Of this country
urged upon consumers. Generally. alum pow
ders may be known from the price At which
accompanied by gift. or are disposed OF un-
der some scheme. The alum powder costs but
a few cents a pound to make, and is often sold
at twenty or twenty-five cents pound; some
times as low as ten cents.
Itsis impossible to name all the alum DOW
der in the market. but any baking powder
sold at u low price, or advertised as costing
much less than the well-known. high sclass.
posed OF under any scheme. Is OF this class
detrimental to health and to be avoided.
These facts should incline consumers to turn
q deaf ear tn all opportunities to buy the ia
feriOr powders. The wise housekeeper will de-
cline In all cases to take them.
