RE mARAWERA T> AKING pOW.DER The Proprietor of this Baking Powder egs to intimate : Ho depends for success as a manufacturer on the Excellence, Purity, and Economic Qctalities of the POWDER, rather than upon the exaggerations characteristic of fashionable advertising. FKEDK. WHITEHEAD. Factory: No. 95, Victoria-street, AUCKLAND. Manufacturer of Essence of Coffee and Chicory. "Very Good : Veuy Excellent Good." —" As Yon Like It;" " rjOW do von pronounce S-h-a-r-O. L-A-X-Il's IJ-A-K-I-S-G P-O-W-D-E-K ? " queried one housewife ef ano;her. ' Sharland's Balnn«r Powder,' promptly replied the other. ' How else could you pronounce it ?' ' I pronounce it ' most excellent," ■wasthe witty rejoinder. Speaking of bnkinx powders, a scientific exchange explains that ' the various baking powdors of commerce are employed to produce an artificial evolution of carbon dioxide, to support that produced in the douirh by the uciion of the yeast. The composition of bakiug powders varies considerably. It appears to-be most convenient to produce the carbonic acid by tho action of hydrochloric acid ou sodium bioabonnte since in this way salt, which is in any caso necessary, is also formed. Another widely-uswil- niuteii.il is ammonium carbonate. It has been hitherto assumed that this substance after aiding in making- tho dough rise was volatilised by the hoit of the oven. Dr. Endemar.n has, however, found tVut the ammonia is by no means all removed, but remains more or les« completely united with the' gluten. This result was communicated to t'ie Association of Chemists assembled at "Washington in August, 1891, and althoHgh tho presence of ummonia is not a source of danger for the consumer nearly all tho chemists present agreed in discouraging tho use of ammonium carbonate in baking powder.' It is a true saying that ' what the eye does not see the henrt does not grieve over,' but at ih& siime time it is quite as well that wr fhould carefully avoid any articles used in the preparation of food •which are not healthful. Looking at the enormons trade now done in baking powdor, users should be careful to select a good brand and keep to it. for it is on record that in the United States parties larly alum iind other chemicals not at all suited to improve tho delicate orgms of digestion are freely used. Whoso aro good baking powders ? In settling this question, we must not be too much guided by puffy testimonials couched in very glowing terms, nor—although it is necessary now-a-days, in order to make any good preparation known, to advertise freely until siinh time as all possible consumers are priii?t,ic*lly acquainted with its value—rely too much on newspaper advertisements. Nowhere, perhaps, more so than in the States is the baking powder advertising war raging fiercer. For instance, and to show the extent to which this rivalry exists, we note a reference to the subject in a recent number of the Oil, Paint, oixl Drug Reporter. The Reporter merrily notes that in one paper the purest baking powder in the world is made in Chicago, and the vilest of all ammoniaoal poisons is dispensed in. New York ; while in another organ, evidently subsidised by an opposition company, the verdict is reversed in a very decided u anuer. Do not, therefore, be altogether led away by flashy advertisements, but test for yourselves. ' Indigestion doth make "brutes of us all, , and many a deed, afterwards bitterly repented, has been committed when the mind was upset by food made with faulty, not to say injurious, materials. ' Plow do you pronounce S-h-a-r-L-A-N-U'S B-A-K-I-K O l'-0-W-D-K-R ?' ' I pronounce .it most excellent. It is f perfect preparation, healthful, and mod satisfactory to übu.'
