    Does it Conlaid Ammonia ?
v.
The charge is being made that the Royal Baking
Powder contains ammonia. "We would have supposed that
the emphatic condemnation of " ammonia baking powders
by the most eminent physicians throughout. the land, and
the fact of the three leading chemists of Minnesota mak
& 1 Joff their report to the Senate Committee recently showing
that bread baked with the "Royal" contained ammonia
and the hostility , now being manifested by the public
against all ammonia and alum baking powders would have
v driven them permanently from the market
In view of the fact that Baking Powder has become
"an indispensable article ia every kitchen, it is gratifying
to know that there are brands in the market to which no
suspicion of any kind has ever attached. Dr. Price's
Cream Baking Powder is a pure cream of tartar-' powder
free from every taint of ammonia, 'alum or
substance. ' .? . '

Vttn Tbejr Come rraas, Wtiera They
Are Sola awl What They Cm. -Nearly
everything it aold at second
aaod in New Tort It ia easy to under
stand why there is a market tea finery,
for pianoa. for jewelry and far clothing,
for which prices are high and vary a
great deal, Imt shoe are sold so cheaply
when new that trade in shoes at second
hand ahoald be small Yet it is a fact
that there ts it very large trade in second
hand boots and shoes, mostly shoes, be-
flanse boots are worn by few at present
The second hand shoe stores are in base
ments ia the poorest quarters of the
city; i", ; .f. '- .
They are generally tn the neighbor
hood of second band clothing stores, bat
are distinct from them. Sometimea,
howerer. bargains in second hand shoes
are to be found in second hand clothing
stores, bat they are odd pairs and an as
sortment ia seldom supplied. On the
east aide and in the First ward are many
second hand shoe stores, and in the bend
at Sixth Avenue and Carmine street is
quite a colony. Many of them are kept
by Hebrews and almost invariably the
proprietor is a cobbler, who occupies his
time mending shoes, either for his own
customers or some other shop. All sorts
and sizes of shoes, representing the fash
ions of the past ten years or longer, may
be found for all ages and both sezea.
They are kept cleanly blacked. :
Many of these shoes are from ash bar
rels and garbage boxes, having been dis
carded as past the worth of mending.
About the 1st of May there is a harvest
of old shoes, thrown out by tidy house
keepers and picked tip by the ragpickers,
who semi theta to the second hand shops.
Many men buy cheap shoes purposely,
because they do not like to wear shoes a
long time.- They discard them without
half soling. As long as shoes are repair
able on the uppers they are of service to
the second hand men, who patiently
patch and mend then) , and make them
worth selling. 4 ; .:.;'.'-'.
Some of the second hand shops are
patronized by Hebrews, others by Ital
ians, and some by colored people. Many
servants get shoes from their employers
sad have them mended, thereby getting
better articles than they could afford to
buy new.
The prices of these second hand shoes
are low. It is almost a rale that the
price shall be only a triflo more than the
cost of mending. Twenty-five cents a
pair is not an unusual price. AdaUara
pair is a large price. ; The cost of shoes
is one of. the heaviest burdens to poor
families. Old clothes may- be handed
down from one generation to another, or
made over, but the shoes require cash
outlay all the time, and the amount of
shoe leather that can be stamped out by
healthy youngsters is appalling. "
There is a steady trade in second hand
shoes among peddlers. They eagerly
bargain for1 old shoes as they travel
through the country. Many of the best
shoes in second hand shops axe bought
by colored people who are inclined to be
particular about their footwear. In the
best second hand stores may be found
soiled fancy shoes for women, relics of
te' OT h off finery of the
rich. Such shoes often reappear in east
side ball rooms. , Most of the customers
of the sefcdtid hand shoe shops are thrifty
persons who have fair incomes bat are
i A Cot Bammlai Bird.
The family of John N. Isbcll. at their
home on the Madison shore, have discov
ered a queer way to capture humming
birds alive. Recently a small humming
bird which had frequented the flowers
on the veranda was observed teaching
two or Its young to sip honey from the
buds. The old bird; as well as the little
ones, was quite tame, but the latter were
evidently unskilled in the art of extract
ing honey. Their efforts resulted in
ruining many of the tender flowers.
One of the ladies on the porch tossed
a cap at the young intruders, as if to
warn them that they most take more
pains with their work or else seek flow
ers elsewhere. The old bird . immedi
ately resented this insnlt by falling
seemingly in a faint or trance. In this
condition she permitted herself to be
captured and inspected, but it was ob
served that one eye was always open to
take in the situation. Luckily for the
mother bird her captors soon released
her, placing her uninjured on the floor.
After waiting till all was quiet, the old
bird came to life and took wing to rejoin
her young, who were still engaged in
their abortive assaults on the flowers.
This story is vouched for by the mem
bers of the family. New Haven Pal-

AMMONIA DOES NOT
LEAVE THE
BREAD.
This la Proves by Setoal Testa la Bak-
tar Mo Sophistry Koqalre4.
The fart that scientific and medical
men. and gtate Legislatures have not
hesitated to talk about the subject has
challenged the attention of the public to
the discussion about the euect ot am
monia and alum in food products.
Aside Iroru the claim of rival com
panies which have to deal with this
o nest ion. there remain a (ew truths on
which people can build their own con
clusions. One ot the claims made is
that ammonia when need in baking; pow
der pnt into bread, disappears in the
baking of the bread. To be ecien tine,
the claim is marie that ammonia is a vola
tile salt. Medical men of repute, chem
ists of unquestionable standing, and
practical business men who bsve given
the matter unbiased investigation, say
such is not the ease. The opinions of
these gentlemen have been printen. the
question was of sufficient importance to
warrant some of the Legislatures ot tne
country to take it up and pass upon it.
ise ore action was taken on tne matter
the committee in chance called chemists
before them and tests were made. Iu
the State of Minnesota, for example,
there appeared betore the Senate com
mittee in chares ot the investigation.
Charles W. Irew. tb. Jo, M. V.. analyt
ical and consulting chemin of Minne
apolis : Dr. W. 8. Ehermann. Chemist
of the State Dairy and Food Commis
sion of the State of Minnesota, end Prof
Jsmes A. Dodge, Professor of Chemistry
at the University oi Minnesota. As the
question was. "Ia ammonia a volatile
salt?" it was necessary to nse in the test
such baking powders as are acknowl-
edred to contain ammonia The list in
cluded Andrews' Pearl Baking Powder
Woods' Acme Baking Powder, and Kova
Bakins Powder. Dr. Drew found in each
a cream of tartar powder containing am
monia. He also found In the rorest Uity
Baking Powder an alum powder contain
ins ammonia-alum, and in White Rose
Baking Powder, an-alum-pboepbate con
taining ammonia-alum. Ha stated U
the committee the following emphatic
opinion : "1 would not recommend the
use of such powders to my patients, nor
wonid 1 use uiem in my own tamiiv.
This opinion referred to the powders
which had been need in making the testa
The opinion of Dr. Kbermann, who bad
made a personal tet in addition, was to
the tame effect. - tie went further, and
said that in the samples of bread made
from the Ivoyal and Rising 8a n. am
monia could even be detected in the
samples of bread broken when hot. by
the smell, unmistakable evidence of the
presence of ammonia. ' Prof. Dodge
made six tests, and ionnd that tne Ki
ing Sun, the Royal, Woods' Acme, and
Andrews' Peari baking powders con
tained ammonia, and that the Forest
City and the White Rose contained am
monia-alum.. snd found ammonia in
each of the sis samples of broad nade
from the powders named. The tfsta
were sufficient to warrant the committee,
composed of business snd intelligent
men. to recommend the passage of a bill
which would require the manufacturers
ol such baking powders as contain alum
and ammonia to have the fact printed on
the packages offered to the public, so
mat tne consumers eon to not De de
ceived. A very significant hint thatam-
moms and alum are not, when taken
into the stomach, conducive to health.
The Legislature of New York followed
the lead on such an enactment, snd the
Illinois Legislature discussed the ques
tion before their adjournment in the
spring of '91. The question is now be
fore the Legislature of Georgia. In
Minnesota, when the Question wss first
stated, the leading merchants of the two
cities, St. Paul and Minneapolis, who
deal in tood products, addressed a com
munication to the Legislature asking it
to pass the bill compelling manufactur
ers who make goods containing food
adulterants to label cans containing the
same. '
The petit-oners echoed the sentiment
of the public in the use of the following
words: i as general dealers in lood
products, and being necessarily without
the skilled information to know of the
composition of special articles like bak
ing powders, and at all time being de
"irons of selling pure articles of food, we
believe the information suh a is sug
gested by the proposed bill. i. e., that
he cans be plainly labeled as to the
oture of their contents, ia most right
eous and just ; the consumer can there
by purchase intelligently."

Most New Yorkers know very little of
Lookout hill in Prospect nark, Brook
lyn, swept that they occasionally
some mention or it tn tha newspapers.
One Bmoklynite who was asked for in
formation about it the other day de
scribed It as a place where "fools from
Mew York go to commit suidds some
time.
This description of Lookout hill is
hardly a fair ona It is true, however,
that for some reason men who want to
commit suicide do somehow manage
very frequently to drift out to this part
of Brooklyn's big park to carry oat their
intentions. But they don t all of them
go from New York. There have been
two suicides there by Brooklynftea The
two that preceded these, however, were
men from New York, and of the many
prior to these Brooklyn may be charged
with the most of them. ,
1 tin. ilnnn MA.f ftav a wall t mmiuI
young man hired a cabin this city and
was driven rapidly over tho bridge to
Brooklyn and out to Prospect .park.
When the cab reached the city tins the
yoong man got oat and sent it back to
New York. Then he went Into a saloon
near by. He left the saloon, entered the
park, walked through the driving anow
to the summit of Lookout hill and there
shot himself.
A policeman beard the shot, and fonnd
the body of the suicide still warm, bat
be was dead. He had evidently intended
that there should be nothing cheap or
vulgar about the affair, for even the re
volver used by him was of the most ei
pensive pattern and make and had been
bought new for the purpose. Be was
identified as a Columbia college student
belonging to a New York family of ex
cellent standing
REMARK A BIJt fORXTIFICATIOlt.
t The suicide before this was also that
of a Nsw York man, snd it attracted
some little attention at the time by rea
son of the fact that there was a mix up
about the identification of the body.
This bad lain on the hill so long before
it was found that It could be identified
only by the clothes on it and by the for
mation of the body. It was formally
identified at the Brooklyn morgue the
morning it wss found as the body of a
New York printer, who had, through
despondency, taken his life.
This identification was made by two
members of Typographical Union No. 6
who had known the man. Later that
day the body was again identified as
that of a barber doing business on Third
avenue in this city, and this identifica
tion was finally found to be correct
The most rnnons thing about this case
was the physical likeness of tbs printer
and the barber. The barber was de
formedthat ia, he had aclnb foot. The
same was true of the printer, and it was
ths left foot that was deformed, as was
the case with the barber. They were
physically alike otherwise. Then the
printer's friends identified the clothing,
the shoes and the hat and even a knife
that was in the pocket of the suicide.
But the printer wasn t dead. The
writer knows that, for be reported the
first Identification for an afternoon pa
per; the second was made too late for
notice that day, and In about a week
afterward ' tbs printer brought snit
against that paper for (20,000 damages
tor saying that be committed suicide
He didnt get the $30,000, bat he did
prove to the satisfaction of all that be
was very much alive.
A HISTORIC PLACE.
But there have been any number of
suicides on Lookout hilL- Brooklynites
are inclined to object to ths use that is
made of this picturesque spot, and as for
ths Prospect park police, they more than
object They constantly patrol the
neighborhood of the hill, and any lounger
about there ia sura to have a very care
ful eye kept upon bim by the blnecoated
guardians of the park.
Lookout bill Is one of Prospect park's
picturesque sod historical spots It is
high hill- looking out over the big take
and the boulevard, and ia heavily wood
ed. As a point from which to view the
surrounding country it is unsurpassed.
From Its brow too. can see for miles in
all directions Coney island. Manhattan
beach, and even Far Rockaway, are vis
ible to the naked eye, Flatbosb and
other towns nestling down among the
trees, snd the farms stretching out over
the level country, present a fins scene at
this season. ,
General Washington nsed this
hill to make observations from when be
was holding Brooklyn and watching for
the expected landing of Sir Henry Clin
ton on Long Island. - It was from here
that the American generals watched
Clinton's movements when preparing for
the disastrous battle of Long Island that
resulted in the retreat of Washington to
the heighta above the Harlem and gave
New York city Into the bands of Sir
Henry Clinton.
The tide of battle swept all around the
hill and in the green field below it good
blood stained the sward,
But times have changed. Battles are
still fought in the field below Lookout
hill the sham battles of the Brooklyn
militia And the bill itself is no longer
visited by great generals. Those who
want to commit suicide go there Instead
