HOW CHEAP BAKING POWDER
IS MADE.

A recent seizure of a lot Of "cheap''
baking powders by the authorities Of
a n%eighboring city has exposed the
character of the low priced brands of
baking powders which many manufac-
turers are Offering throughout the
country. The price of the powders first
attracted attention to them. Samples
were taken and analysed. The official
report of the analysis showed the stuff
TO be "alum powders" composed chiefly
of alum, sulphuric acid and pulverize6
rock. The powders were declared dan
gerous to health and several thousand
pounds were confiscated and destroyed.
Physicians have frequently cautioned
consumers against mixing food with
these so-called "cheap' baking powders.
They are all found, when analysed, to
contain large percentages Of alum and
sulphuric acid to which are added vari-
Gus sorts Of filling matter sometimes
both injurious and nasty:
The high class, cream of tartar bak-
ing powders, are the most economical
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.

A KIDNEY PILLS..
LARGEST BRICKYARD
Enormous Bank of Easily Accessible
Clay Is Located at Petcrbor-
OuEh, England.

Peterborough, England, makes enough
brick in the urs Of a year to

Ing yards, which have grown up in
great number around the ancient city

Pcterborough's annual output were laid
out in a single line, it would stretch over
100, 900 miles. The brick industry has
revolutionized the trade Of Peterbor-

the profit to be drawn from it that one
part of the brick-making district has
been fifty named "Klondike." 1t lies in
