We are sorry to learn by the fol
lowing paragraph quoted from that
able and sprightly paper, the Morx
mo Stab of- WilmiogtoD, N. C,
that the Democrats .of the Turpen

to so untoward a frame of mind that
they prefer untaxing the luxuries of
whiskey and tobacco to freeing the
food, the clothing, and the shelter of
the American people from the heavy
imposts! now laid on them for the
benefit of millionaire manufacturers
and monopolists. This is what the
Wilmington Stab eays :
The Louisville Courier-Journal,
. the Galveston News, the St. Louie,

i ne 3itmpU18 Appeal are certainly
among the leading papers in the
South. They are all warmly advo
cating a reduction of the war tariff
and they all oppose the abolition of
joe internal tax. They do 'not fa-
;ur taxing the common house
hold necessaries and freeing from
taxation useless, hurtful luxuries,
in orth Carolina these able leading
papers would find themselves sus

The Ohio 6; ate Dirt and 'Food Com
miesiner, Geu 8 . H Hurt-t. has made
public (.Circular N . 6) tbe results of the
Comositifciou'a investigation of baking pow,
der. TbiH oiumiasion was formed by the
Legislature, wuh instructions to make an
examination of the food supply of the
State, and to give a report of such exami
nation to tbe public. Tbe examination of
the baking powders was made by Professor
H. A Weber, State Chemist, and, relating
as it does to an article of daily use In Jhe
food of almost every one, is of particular
iau-rtst
The rather startling fact is brought out
by tbe report that of the thirty different
brands of bakiBg powder analysed, com
posing about all those sold in the Stated
twenty of them are made from alum, a sub
stance declared by the highest medical au
tborities to I be injurious to health when
nsed in food.
Tbe Comoaisaloper classifies tht baking
powdeis into three general divisions, ac
cording to their value:
1st. Cream nf Tartar Baking rowaersc
2d Phosphate Baking Pjaders:
3d Alum Biking Powders.
The object of! baking powi ers is. when
mixed in the flour and subjected to mois
ture, to generate a leavening gts in the
dough, which will raise the bread and
cause it to be porous and light. The Com
missioner explains that tbe beet baking
poder is that which, the ingredients being,
healthful, givtg off tbe largest amount of
leavening j gas and leaves the smallest
amount of residuum in tbe bread, A small
amount of carbonate of ammonia, which is
considered healthful, ia used in some of the
cream of tartar powders to give them a
higher strength. The Commission say
that pure alum is undoubtedly a hurtful
salt, and that tbe resultant salts from its
combination with soda as formed in ibe
bread, csn scarcely be less hurtful. The

The large amount of inert matter or ie-
siduum in both the phosphate ' and alum
powders will be noted This in the phos
phate powders is largely of lime; in tbe
alum powders it is chiefly alum. It will
be gratifying to the public to observe that
the powder in most general use, the Royal,
is also the purest. In comparing the first
two powders on the list, for instance the
Koyal and Dr Price s tbe inert matter in
Price's is seen to be about five in seven
more than in the former, a difference of 71
8-7 per cent , the Royal being purer than
Price's by a corresponding figure.
The carbonic or leavening gas produced
by tbe powders indicates their strength:
and their true value may be ascertained by
considering the amount of this gas in con
nection with their inert matter or residuum
as shown above. Tbe higher the per
centage of gas and the lower the percentage
of residuum the better tbe baking powder.
These percentages, as found in some of tbe
most familiar powders, are given as fol
lows:

With the foregoing explanation tbe study
of these figures will readily give consumers
a knowledge of the comparative value of
the different brands. To illustrate with the
per centages given the two powders before
compared: the Royal containing 11.8 parts
of leavening gas to 10.5 in Price's.its excess
of strength is 1.3 in 10. o, or 18 4 per cent,
Roval Is therefore 12 40 per cent, stronger.
as well as 71 per cent, purer than Price's,
etc. Tbe relative strengtn and purity oi ai
the powders can be computed in like man
ner, i il ' dwlt.

incredible rapidity, until tie lo wenportlon of tho
little fellow's person, from the middle of hla '
baok down to his knees, was one solid rash, nly,
palnfnl, bloiohed,T and mallolons. We bal n
rest at night, no peace by day. Finally, we ero
advised to try the t tmocrsA Bsmbdibs. The ef-
