At n hearing before tbo committee on public health of the Massachusetts legislature , on a bill designed to prevent vent the wholesale drugging of the public , the following eminent Bostoi physicians testified against the health fulness of Rocbello salts , and strongl > recommended tlio passage of a lav which would prohibit the sale of those cream of tartar baking powders wblcl leave this dangerous drug in tbo food Dr. Hartung , Dr. C. 0. Kepler , Dr. F B. Foster , Dr. G. M. Pnlmor. The average consumer of baking powder does not know that a reac tion occurs in the process of baking When a chemical reaction takes place the nature of the original material i entirely changed , so that the sub stances which remain in the food to bo eaten are very different from those which compose the baking powder before - fore baking. For this reason th statement that a baking powder con tains alum or cream of tartar Is worth ess so far as Informing the consumer s to whnt ho eats. What the con- inner wants to know Is whnt goes ito his stomach ; not what Is In the nn , The much advertised cream of irtar trust powders nro of such com- osltlon us to leave largo quantities f Rochelle snlts In the food. They nvo never denied this ; they dnro not eny It. Why bo Induced by their lover advertising to buy their brands nil pay 15 to 50 cents a pound for a aklng powder that leaves In tbo food medlcino that should bo taken only y the physician's directions ? The nest baking powder In the world can o mndo for 25 cents a pound. There Is a high grade baking pow er on the market that Is sold nt a loderato price , and ono that loaves 10 food free from Rochelle salts , him , or any Injurious substance. The alumet linking Powder company unrnnleeH this to the consumers , nnd . Is well to avoid all baking powder uit cannot make this statement. In low of the purity nnd henlthfulnoss f Calumet linking powder it is roc- mmonded by tbo loading physicians nd chemists of the country. i Question That Every Man Should Decide for Himself.
