Lime is the serious defect found in most of the cream of tartar baking powders. As amatter of fact, chemical analysis has found it in all such powders except the “Royal.,” Its presence is caused by the use of adul- terated cream of tartar in the effort to reduce their cost of production. Lime adds to the weight while it detracts from the strength of the baking powder, It also renders the food less wholesome, giving rise to dyspepsia and kindred nilments. Baking powders containing lime pro- duce less leavening gas, and therefore in use are more expensive than a first class, pure article. The Royal Bakix specially refined and made chemically pure. Powder is made from cream of tartar that is first No tartrate of lime or other impurity can find its way into the “Royal,” and to this fact its great su- periority in strength, wholesomeness and keeping quality is due. All this adds greatly to the costof manufacturing the Royal Baking Powder, but asall its ingredients ave selected and prepared with the same precise care and regardless of labor or expense, an article is produc- ed that is free from every extrancous substance—"absolutely pure.” Nor does it contain any ingredients except those necessary to make a pure, wholesome and perfect baking powder. Prof. McMurtrie, late chemist in chief of the U. 8. Department of ag- riculture, after analyzing the cream of tartar used by the various baking powders of the market, testifies to the absolute purity of that employed in the Royal Buking Pcwder as follows: “I have examined the cream of tartar manufactured for and used by the Ro; to be perfectly pure and free from lime in any form.” Baking Powder Company in their baking powder, and find it Prof. Love, who made the analysis of baking powders for the New York State Board of Health, as well as for the government, certifies to _the purity and wholesomeness of the Royal. Dr. E. H. Bartley, chemist of the Brooklyn, N. Y., Department of Health, says—*T have recently analyzed samples of the Royal Baking Powder purchased by myself in the stores of this city, and find it free from lime in any form. Bread, lighter, sweeter and more wholesome than if made with any other baking cake, biscuits, ete., prepared with Royal Baking Powder will be powder or leavening agent.
