A MILLION A I’EAE. Lottery and Prize Schemes Used to Sell Alum umiAmmonia Baking Powders. A New York concern, manufacturers of an ammonia baking powder boasts that its yearly profits are over a million dollars. While, perhaps, none of the makers of alum powders individually can show so largo earnings yet their profits are enormous. A business so profitable will always attract to itself those whose greed will cause them to utterly disregard ttie effect their traffic may have upon the health or life of othirs Alum linking powders are introduced largely by guts, prizes and lottery schemes A piece of Rlasswaie or china, a child’s wagon, sled, a pewter spoon or some othoi article of attractive appe. rauce, but of small intrinsic Value oi cost is given with each purchase or a number is attached to the can which entitles the customer to a similaily numbered article or to a prize of some kind. It is in some such way as this i hat tho trade in alum and ammonia baking powders, which has now attaine auch giant propoiti /ns nnd their consumption by tho public which has reached hn extent which is truly alarming t Tho highest authorities of all countries condemn the use of alum in bread without reserve. In America the most distinguished physicians, chemists and hygienists have declared that the traffic n alum baking powders should be suppressed by law. in England and France where the subject of pure food, and its effect upon the systom, has been move fully considered and made tho subject of extended experiment, by the scientists, so serious l n matter is the use of alum in bread or I other lood considered to be, that most I stringent laws have been enacted to pre- 1 vent it. Those laws are rigidly enforced, and the sale of alum baking powders I would not be permitted for an hour. Any I one who attempted to make them for use m food, or attempted to use them for raising bread, biscuit or cake would suffer evere penalties. The ill effects upon the systom of food raißcd by alum baking powders are the more dangerous because of their insid ous character. It would be less dangerous to the community were it fatal at once, for then such food would be avoided; but their deleterious action because imperceptible at first is uo less certain. Tho puckering effect which alum has when taken tLeth is familiar to ever} one. .Physicians say this same effect is produced by it upon the delicate coats of the stomach and intestines. What housewife would take home to her family a can of alum or ammonia baking powder if she knew it. Such powders not only undermine the system, but it is vointed out that ammonia taken into the system in infinitesimal doses day after lay, imparts to she complexion a sallow and a blotched appearance. It is safe to discard all baking powders sold with a prize or gift. What a misnom r are the words “Absolutely Pure,” as applied to baking powders. Two of the largest selling brands, one made from alum, the other containing nmn o ia, and both of these drugged baking powders have Rtamped upon their labeL and c rculars these words absolutely pure, as a matter of fact they are “Ab solntely Boor,” as shown by official examinations.

flow V OLTACR* OTTRHD TKH Via AT n dfl Stomach. —ln the “Memoirs oi Count Segur” there ix the following anecdote : “My mother, the Counteaa de Segur, being asked by Voltaire respecting her health, told him that the moet painful feeling she had arose from the decay in her stomach and the difficulty of finding any kind of aliment that it could bear. Voltaire, by way of con•olation, assured her that he was onoe for nearly a year in the same state, and believed to be incurable, but that nevertheless, a very simple remedy had rostored him. It consisted in taking no other nourishment than yelks of egga beaten up with the flour of potatoes and water.” Though this circumstance concerned so extraordinary a person ar Voltaire, it is astonishing 'bow little it known and how rarely the remedy ha* been practiced. Its efficacy, however in esses of debility, cannot be questioned, tuid the following is the mode ot preparing this valuable article of food as recommended by Sir John Hi no! wit , Beat up an egg in a bowl, and then add six table-spoonfuls of cold water, mi-ring ttie whole well together ; then add two table-spoonfuls of farina of potatoes j let it be mixed thoroughly with the liquid in the bowl; then poor in sf much boiling water as will convert the whole thing into a jelly, ax,l mix it weij It may be taken alone or with the turn of a little milk in oaee of stoomahli debility or consumptive sdiO Stk
