These tests, which are absolutely reliable end
unprejudiced, make plain a fact of great importance
to everyone : Food raised with Royal, a cream of

tible, while the alum and ohosohate Dowders are found
to largely retard the digestion of the food made from

Undigested food is not only wasted food, but it
is the source of very many bodily ailments.
