REPORTS OF GOVERIJTIENT CHEMISTS.
As to Purity and Wliolesomeness of the Royal Baking' Powder.
" I have tested a package of Royal Baking Powder, which I purchased in the
open market, and find it composed of pore and wholesome Ingredients. It U a cream
of tartar powder of a high degree oi merit, and does not contain either alum or
phosphates, or other injurious substances. E. G. Lotk, Ph.D." - '
4 ' It it a scientific fact that the RojjH Baking Powder is absolutely pure. ".
' i- "II. A. MOTT, Ph.D."
u I have examined a package of Royal Baking Powder, purchased by myself in
the market. I find it entirely free from alum, terra alba, or any other injurious sub- ,
stance. Hbsbt Mobton, Ph.D., President of Stevens Institute of Technology."
" I have analyzed a package of Royal Baking Powder. The materials of which
it is composed are pure and wholesome. 8. Dana Hates, State Assayer, Mass."
The Royal Baking Powder received the highest award over all competitor at
the Vienna World's Exposition, 1873 ; at the Centennial, Philadelphia, 187C ; at the.
American-Institute, and at State Fairs throughout the country.
No other article of human food has ever received such high, emphatic, and uni
versal endorsement from eminent chemists, physicians, scientists, and Boards of
Health all over the world.
Note. The above Diagram illustrates the comparative worth of varidus Baking
Powders, as shown by Chemical Analysis and experiments made by Prof. Schedler. ...
A one pound can of each powder was taken, the total leavening power or volume iu
each can calculated, the result being as Indicated. This practical test for worth by
Prof. Schedler only proves what every observant consumer of the Royal Baking
Powder knows by practical experience, that, while It costs a few cents per pound'
more than ordinary kinds, it is far more economical, and, besides, affords the advan
tage of better work. A single trial of the Royal Baking Powder will convince any
fair minded person of these facts.
While the diagram shows some of the alum powders to be of a higher degree "
of strength than other powders ranked below them, it Is not to be taken as indica-
ting that they have any value. All alum powders, no matter how high their strength,' '
are to be avoided as dangerous. - -
A Rkliabi.k Medicine-Our readers
are aware that the Times very rarely
editorially endorses or recommends
what are known as patent medicines,
as it does not frequently happen that we
can have positive knowledce of their
merits; but having individually used
"Ammen's Couph Syrup," and heard so
much in its praise, we think the manu
facturer is doing: good in placing so val
uable a medicine on the market and we
are doing good in assisting to make it
known. It also affords us pleasure to
commend Mr. Ammen to the craft ev
erywhere. Times, .Jacksonville, Ore

Ammen's Cough Syrup we believe just
what it is represented to be, and will do
all that its owner claims for it, and is
certain to come into universal use as
soon as its merits become known. (Al

Our little girl had the croup. We used
Ammen's Congh Syrup. It cured her.
Have also used it for colds, always with

The experience in the treatment of Cancer with Swift'
Specific (S.8.S.) would seem to warrant us in saying that
it will cure this much dreaded soourge. Persons so
afflicted are invited to correspond with us.
I believe Swift'aSpeciflc bas sared my life. I had vir
tually lost use of the upper part of my body and my
arms from the poisonous eilocU of a large oancer oa my
neck, and from which I had suffered for twenty years.
S. H. 8. has relieved me of all soreness, and the poison
is being forced out of my system. J will soon be well.
W. K. Kobisos; Davisboro, G.
Two mon thn ago my attention was called to the case
of a woman afflicted with cancer on her shoulder at
leaitt live inches in circumference, angry, painful, and
giving the patient no rest day or night x r six months.
I obtained a supply of Swift's Specific for her. She has
ttken 5 bottles and th ulcer is entirely healed up, only
a very small scab remaining, and her health la better
than for i years past; seems to be perfectly cured.
Rev. Jesse H. Campbell, Columbus, Ga.
I have seen remarkable- results from nse of Swift's
