Opliulons of Nedical Fxperts---Prompt Action of the Rrookiyn Board of fealth, Bte, Tn order that the people of the country may fully underataud the catses of the present ex- citement aa to the use of ahun {n buking-pow- ders, a history of the acitation [a necedsary: In the Scientific American of Nov, 10 apneared anarticlo by an eminent chumist of New York showing the presence of atum in large quanti- tics in a number of baking-powders, Thia article was copicd fnto many newspapers, cranting great excltement ln vvery household whare baking-powder was uscd. The popular feeling orew so strong that in the early part of December the Brooklyn Board of lealth dircet- ed satnples of the varlous kinds of baking-pow- ders sold in Brooklyg to be analyzed, and a re- port thereon made to 1he Board. Sanitury-Superintendent Rayinond, M, D., has prosented to ilie Board of Health substantially the following report on baking-powders, and the effects of alum on the human system. e sags: Home of thy mannfacturers, in drder to supply a cheap baking-powder, have Iniroduced alum n3 an ingredient, and this seemd to bo the only satieface Tory reason foe it e that can be wiven. 11 tnany countries alum bue lung been nsed by bakera in breadsmaking, Tho etfects of alum on the huuen body are well known, nnd are, heyond duubt, fnjurloun when taken in Jnrgw quantitics, or in wmall quuntities often repeated. Al authorls lllusugn-l n this, and there 18 no room for discue- alon. The renort of the Brooklyn Board concludes as follows: i From a careful exnmination, T am satisfiod that the weleht of evidence In agafnat the usy of alnm in hiking-powders, and tnat the riske incurred i {18 180 4o tou great Lo he Incurred for the sake of cheapuess alane, ‘The mutcous membrano of tha stomnch nnd the inteatinal canal iy n dellcata steneture, and metenals which waontd produce no effect un the ontsido skin might Irritate and influmo theso orzans, ‘The New York Evenlng Fast has been glvin) this subject gomo attention, and has publishe the result of gomg remarkable {nvestizations, whicli arc worthy the close attentlon of thought- tul peoplo. A From its recent cxposure of the use of burnt alum In some brands uf bakine-powders, In place of cream of tartar, the following extracts are mafnly taken: Pursuftiz_the fnvestization of the quality of the foud sold in this city, the representative of the Koening Lost took up baking-powder ns one of the articles {n most general usein our house- holds. It is used by nearly every family fn the city, and v {8 nuturatly of wreat “fmportance to thase who eat thy food made with it to koow lwluiu[u:r 1t contnins auything {njurious to health, ‘here are certain constitucnts of good baking- }mwdur which may be regarded ns entirely free romn dunger, 'They consist of pure grane cream of tartar, bicarbonate of soda, and car- bonpte of ammoubsn The cremm of tartar unites with the other two ingredients, and carbonle acld gus s thrown off, producing the same effect a8 yeast in a much shorter time. It has been fuund, however, that alum will also unite with the other two articles, nud carbonle avid gas will be produced. As alum cuats lcss than three cents, while eream of tar- tar costs mure than 50 cents a pound, it is easy to see, why alumn fs suvstituted for the latter b some baking-powder manufacturers. It s ad- mitted by all medleal authorities that cream of tartar leaves no fujurlous substunce in the bread; alum, on the othier hand, 18 In ftself an ustringent, utid oliere is wide und doop-seated vrejudice against {ts use. In England und other countries the adulteration of food with alum is forbidden by luw under heavy penaltics. When used {n baking-powder, the alum forms a third salt, the hydrate of sluming, as well as tho other two. This hydrate of aluming fs far more ens- fly soluble than the other two; hienco any objee- tiou thut may exist as {o the uso of alum alona in bread applies with grester forco to ts use in baking-powder. 'This fact cau be proved by the Tollowlog-named authoritics: Parke s~the leadoy, of the new school of h{zlcnu in England.. fn s “Treatise on Hy- gleas " he ddys: i " Looking, then, to the positive ovidence, and the reasonableness of that wridence, it scoms o mo extremely likely that stronxly alumed bread doca vruduce the injurious effects asceibed to It, ‘Thoese effceta ns he previously states, are indiyestion, grining; constipation, and kindred troubles result- g {rom irnitation of the mucous membrane, pro- duced by thu ustringent propertics of ulum, Persons who have not strong coustitutions, erowlng girls, ?'mmz children, and ntrsing motlwrs ara purtlcalarly llable to the ovil effucts produced by this use of alum. Heart-burn und the prevaient forms of indigestion are often solely traceablo to the actlon of alumn on the dellcate coats of the stomnach, ‘T'u make sure of kuowlr the action of alum, the Kvenlng l'ost's representative obtained the following vxpresslous of opinion s to s eMect when uged in baking-powder from somne phy- sicians of New York of the highest reputation und abillty: Dr, Willlam A.

Other Interviews were had, all to the samo eencral effvct, namely, that alum {s used by many manufacturers to cheapen thelr powder und enable them to undersell thelr compotiturs, Many of them are probably iguoraut of the evil effects of alum on the s; srhile others are indiffercut so lonz a8 they make money, and no one can be sald to have dropped desd from taking their powder. By this exposurs of the injurlous cffects of alum in baking-powder, the public must not bu Irlghtened from using bakiog-powders when properly made, Inthe repors of Prof, Biwyn Waller, Amistant Tleaitu-Inspector of New York Board of Health, on buking-powder, In 1872, the public ore recom- mended to purchase one of the well-known brands of taking-powder, in preferonce cream ol tariad lcmmtcl{. a8 this subi found fu all casos to be adulterated with sulphate of lime, commounly called terra alon, and to such un extent that ju most cases tho cream of tartar wvau really terra alba, to which a small quantity of crenm of tartar had been added, The Inspector further states that when the mixturo fs made on a larger scale in a factory, and the baking-powder Is put up in packages ready for use, the manufacturs er expertences no diflicutty, in the first place, of sccuring good materials froe from adulteration, and secondly, in mixing these materfals in the proper proportions, Dr. Mott, ' the Government chemist, in his review on the subject fu the Scientific American, mnkes special mention of having analyzed tle Royal Baking-Powder, sod found it composed of wholesomne materials.
