Alum baking powders are responsible for the larger part of this unwholesome food, for it is a fact well recognized by physicians that alum renders food indigestible and unwholesome.
The danger to health from this cause is so imminent that it behooves every one to adopt precautionary measures to keep alum baking powders, which are now so numerous, from the kitchen stores. It will be found that those powders sold at a lower price than Royal are almost invariably made from alum, and therefore of inferior quality and dangerous to health.
The safer way is to look for the well-known red-and-yellow label of the Royal Baking Powder. That is certain to cover a powder free from alum. The Royal is made of cream of tartar, a pure, wholesome fruit acid derived from grapes. It is renowned for adding anti-dyspeptic qualities to the food, as well as for making finer and better food.—The Good Housekeeper.
While thousands are idle and starving because they never learned to work, other thousands are earning good wages because their mothers saw to it that they learned the use of tools when their habits were being formed. Running a Scroll Saw is better exercise than riding a bicycle. It contents the boys to stay at home, cultivates their tastes, and makes their hands skilful for any kind of mechanical employment which they may wish to follow in after-years. A good mechanic is sure of a living if all his other undertakings fail him. More than one million of these Saws have been sold, and the demand continues.
We sell the best foot-power saw (called the No. 1 Rogers), with Drilling Attachment, Blower, Tools, and Designs, for $3.50. The Goodell Lathe, as seen in the above cut, costs $13.00 with Scroll-Saw Attachment and all necessary tools and designs. We are now the headquarters for all things in the scroll-sawing line, including Foot and Hand Machines, Star Saw Blades, Designs of every kind, Wood, Clock Movement, etc., etc. Send money for what you want, or buy from hardware dealers.
