No other article of human food has ever received such high, emphatic, and uni versal endorsement from eminent chemists, physicians, scientists, and Boards of Health all over the world. Note—The above Diaoham illudrates the comparative worth of varions Baking Powders, as shown by Chemical Analysis and experiments made by Prof. Schedler. A pound er.n of each powder was talc, u, the total leavening power or volume in each ran calculated, the result being as indicated. This practical test for worth by Prof. Schedler only proves what every observant consumer of tho Royal Baking Powder knows by practical experience, that, while it cost-* a few cents per pound more than ordinary kinds, it is far more economical, and, besides, affords the advan tage of better work. A single trial of the Royal Baking Powder will convince any fair-minded person of these facts. * While the diagram shows some of the alum powders to be of a higher degree of strength than other powders ranked below them, it is not to be taken as indicat ing that they have any value. All aiuia powders, no matter how high their strength, ure to be avoided as dangerous.
