How Cheap Baking
Powder Is Made,

A recent seizure of a lot of "cheap'
baking powders by the authorities OF
a neighboring city has exposed the
character of the low priced brands
of baking powders which many man.
ufacturers are offering throughout
the country. The price Of powders
first attracted attention to them.
Samples were taken and aualyzed.
The official report of the analysis
showed the stuff to be ''alum powders
composed chiefly of alum, sulphuric
acid and pulverized rock. The pow.
ders were declared dangerous to
health and several thousand pounds
were confscated and destroyed.
Physicians have frequently caution
ed consumers against mixing food
with these so-called ''cheap" baking
powders" They are all found, when
analyzed, to contain large percent.
ages of alum and sulphuric acid to
which are added various sorts of fill.
ing matter sometimes both injurious
and nasty.
The high class, cream of tartar
baking powders, are the most eco
nomical and wholesome and should
always be selected for use. They will
be found cheaper in the end, besides
making the food better and more
healthful.

Meeting OF CONGREGATION.

At the congregational meeting OF
the First Presbyterian church,
Wednesday evening, Mr.. Mills, the ar
chitect, presented plans and a colored
plat of the church as proposed to be
remodeled that seemed to meet the
approval of all present. The report
of the architect was accepted, and
his bill paid, and, after considerable
discussion, a motion passed by small
majority to proceed with the work of
remodeling the church according to
the plans submitted-the estimated
cost being from So, 900 to s25, 900.
The meeting then adjourned without
day, and nothing will probably be
done till more of the members can be
brought to see things the same way.
The plans of Mr.. Mills included
an auditorium that would seat over
800, gallery of 200, and a Sabbath
school room of 800. The old tower
would be torn down, the church ex-
tended north some sixteen feet, and
a tall tower built on the north
east corner. Entrances in this tower;
at the southeast corner; and on
the north side through the Sabbath
school room, to be built at the rear.
The present front doors will be
changed to double windows. The
auditorium would be 62 feet square,
with domed ceiling and bowled floor.
