'How else could you pronounce it r' ' I pronounce il, ' most excellent," « was tli-j witty rejoinder. Speaking of bnkinir powders, a scientific exchange explains that ' the vaiious baking powders of commerce are employed to produce an artificial evolution of earlrm dioxide, to support, that produced in the dou«h by the action of the jea.-J. The composition of baking powders varies L considerably. It appears to bo most_ convenient In produce the carbonic acid by the action of hydrochloric acid on sodium bicabonate since in this way sidt, which - is in iinv case necessary, is formed. Another widely-used material is ainsoiiium carbonate. It has been hitherto E assumed that, this substance after aiding in makinir the douyh rise was volatiiisec. by the heat of the "oven. Dr. Endernami has however, found that the ammonia is by no means all removed, but remains " more or less completely united with the "luten. This result was communicated - to Oie Association of Chemists assembled at Washington in August, IS9I, and althoi-i' r h the presence of ammonia is not a ] source'of danger for the consumer nearly all the chemists present agreed in discouraging the use of ammonium carbonate in c baking powder.' £ It is a true saying that 'what the eve < does not see the heart does_ not grieve over,' but at the same time it is quite as j well that we should carefully avoid any 1 article.' used in the preparation of food , which are not healthful. Looking at Hie | enormous trade now done in baking f powder, users should bo careful to select j a good brand and keep to it. for it is on record that in the United States particu- j larly alum and other chemicals not at all ] suited to improve the delicate organs of digestion are freely used. Whose are , good baking powders ? In settling this question, we must not bo too much j "trided 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 such time as all possible con- , surncrs are practically acquainted with its value—vely too much on nowspapor advertisements. Nowhere, perhaps, more , so than in the States is the baking powder advertising war raging fiercer. For instflTic©, and to sliow the extent to which this rivalry exists, we note a reference to the subject in a recent number of the Oil, Paint, anil Drug Reporter. The .Reporter merrily notes that in one paper the purest baking powder in the wprldis made in Chicago, and _ the vilest of all ammoniacul poisons is dispensed in New York ; while in another organ, evidently subsidised by an opposition company, the verdict is reversed in a very decided manner. Do not, therefore, be altogether led away by flashy advertisements, but test for yourselves. 1 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.
