NO PHYSIC WITH OUR FOOD
J A Phosphatic Baking Powder
Theory tnat is Dangerous
if not Ridiculous.
That is rather a dangerous proposi
| tiou, pat forth by the manufacturers
of some of patented or proprie
ury articles of food, thut their jiro
■ ducts possess a superior wholesome
; ness because they contain a of
; some p .rticular uiediciual property.
Phojubates, alum, ltiue, arsenic, ca!o
--1 . . ,
md, etc-,have tueir plates oa ppectuca
i fur different diseases, and are invalu
afile medical remedies, e»ieh i i its
p'ace But they are not eure-a'.la
Tue pbyiicittu who shoui l prescribe
either calomel, or strychnimj. or rtiu
: b;irb thr *e times a day to tuau, wo
man or child sick or well, because
' e*ii.t;f or sucu lirugn is a oil kuo.vu
rtji'-dy for tome certain diseases,
would r- ci ive out little honor from
! the fraternity aad less practice trom
1 tbe community.
No od" 1 will controvert this state

baking powders claiming superior by
■ gifuic vi-tue for their productions and
!
thev are alieged to carry the phos
' phate u«ed in making them (a cb»-ap
su!«s?ituc« for cream ot •arr.ar, procur
ied from iho bones c? dead animals)
into the fo >d, although well uware.as
tbey most ta;, of tbe fact that with
1 the constant use of such article this
i dtug must piiss into our systems
j daily, do matter what may be our I
physical condiaons or requirements,
:or whether or not we may be suffer- !
1 ing from some i.ilment wherein the I
use of f<ucb drug would be positively
detrimental, b.ith alum and phos
| phaics are useful meudicaments in i
certain diseases; but they should no
more be taken tndiscrimately day at
j ter day and without tbe prescription
|of a physician, than arsenic, aconite
jor calomel: indeed, there are condi
: tions of tbe system, particularly with
; women, when the prudent physician !
' would t)e loath to permit the u«e of;
I iiui" pnospbates even as a medicine
j Tbe fallucy of this claim of tbe i
manufacturers of pliospbatic baking |
i powders vviil be apparent to all wheu |
the •veil known to physicians, is J
stated, that io average beai-h and
with ordin ry food the body gets'
more phv.-pbaU'S thau are required or !
can be a-r-imiiated, as is evidenced by |
th.; fact that tbey are constantly o<iiti!s j
« i xr»eHed in the i-xcrelions, both solid j
ar.d liquid; likewise the statement
tb it it is necersary to add phosphates
to tbe baking powder to reotore to the
flour those which have been lost in
the millling, for it is true that fin*)
flour es at present made actually con
tains a larger of phos
phates tbau the grain of wheat itself
The object of baking powders is not
tn provide the body with a medicine,
but sirnplv to vesiculate or make
light the mixture of flour, so as to
render it when baked easy of mastica
tion and perfectly digestible. The
most celebrated experts in the busi
ness have worked f<r the perfection
of an article that should do this me
chanically, adding to or taking from
the fl itir nothing, nor in any way
effecting a change in its properties or
constituents. When this has
done the perfect leavening agent has
been discovered The manufacturers
of the Royal Baking Powder have
Succeeded in this so far as to make a
leavening agent that vesiculates and
raises the loaf most perfectly, and
without changing the properties of
the flour, while the residuum from it
hnw been reduced to a minimum The
arid employed, however, to produce
this result is not phosphatie, but the
acid of hitrbly refined cream of tartar,
which, the health authorities agree,
renders that, powder perfectly pure
and more reliable aud baalthful than
any other. The recent official tents
show, on the other hand, that the
best the pbospbalic baking powder
makers can do is to produce an article
that is one-third or more residuum or
impurity.
We want our food pure; especially
do wo not wish to take alum,lime and
phosphates with it at the dictum of
manufacturers who may find it cheap
er to claim a virtue for the impurities
than to remove them.

The Bradford Tragedy.
BRADFOUD, PA, March G. —The
moat startling tragedy that has occur
red in the oil country from some
years was enacted in this city to-day.
A few«miuutes after 11 o'clock, a tall,
broad-shouldered man entered the
Bradford National Bank lie wora
ovpr-alls, a checked rubber coat and
Scotch cap, from which depended a
handkerchief, completely concealing
his faeo, exce >t where holes were cut
for the eyes. In bis hand was a3B
| caliber revolver. Walking up to th«
cashier's window, he presented his
weapon and demanded the cash which
was spread out before Paying teller
Mitchell to the amount of several
thousand dollars. Cashier T II
Tornlinson.to whom this bold request
was addressed, had no time to reply
before the intruder added: "You
don't seem to Hcare worth u cent."
With tuis he moved along to the
right a few step-*, parsing in front of
Pay iug Teller's window. As he did
so he placed one hand on top of the
railing seven feet high from the door,
and with one foot on a projection,
vaulted over among the frightened
clerks, who lost no time in getting as
far as possible out of the reach of the
man's pistol.
THE CAS 111 Kit SHOT DOW S.
Making a rapid movement toward*
the money in view, the rubber en
countered in the person of Cashier
Tomiinaon the only man out of a doz
en in tin) bank who had the presence
of mind to realize the situation and
the courage to r«Ki«t. AH the two
men came together *he de«pnralo'n
pistol t>uebed the canhier'a left Hide
and following the report, the brave
officer f»»ll belple&i to th'j fl ><>r. With
no one elao to atop hirn, the murderer
snatched from the counter a handful
of bills, thrust tb«m into his pocket,
sprang over the prostrate body of the
dying cashier into the 1 utter's private
office, thence rushed through *do »r
into the rmin room of the bank and
to the Htreet No one offered to stop
him. but several men followed.among
whom wart IJ. lileieh, a German
butcher. The murderer crossed Main
street and entered CheHtnut, throwing
away bis mask an be ran Finding
bin pursuers crowding him clos*lv, he
suddenly turned aud tired and Uleieb
dropped This did jiot deter the
crowd, however, and when a train of
cars blocked hiu way at Kim street
the fugitive turned to ugaiu UHU his
weapon.
A BULLET IN UIUOWN UTTAIN,
Realiziziug that overpowering
numbers made that defense useless,ho
changed bis mind, and placing the
muzzle of bin pistol to bin right tem
ple, pulled the trigger and fell dead.
The body was removed to an under
taker's and speedily identified a<i that
of £imhall. In tho rubber
coat were sewed large pockets such
»y upofttstuen uao ip their fpo<;tiug
' coats. Tbev were doubtless prepared
!as receptacles for the money he ex
P'Cted to secure, and in them were
tound 1?f)45 As the cash balance at
the.bank afierward showed a deficieu
jcv of sls, it would appear that the
amount originally taken was SISOO, of
1 which sls bad been lost during the
attempt to esc .pe
t While the exciting chase of the
robber was taking place. Cashier
■ Tomiinson was carried into the Pi
I rector's room and physicians sura
i mooed The bail had entered the left
I aide just above the hip and passed
laterally entirely through the body.
It was at once decided that laparoto
my was the man's only chance, aud
*wo hours later the operation was
performed The intestines were dis
covered to be cut in three places. To
mVht Mr Tomiinson is re.-ting rea
sonably well, but the physicians be
lieve his recovery very doabt'ul. He
had been cashier of the baiik for six
years and stood in esteem in tb«
commuoioitv. Hn is 2$ ye*rs oid
and has a wife and one child
BLEICH'S BODY PIERCED THROUGH .
Bleich, the German whose zeal to
catch the fugitive brought him in
rauge of the latter's revolver, wus
found to be hurt ueariv as seriously
as the cashier. The ball struck him
in the abdomen to the right of tbe
center and came out of his back a few
inches to the left of the spiustl column
His conditioc is critical, but it is be
lieved that his chances of recovery
are greater than Tomiinson's. He
has a wite ana an iufant child.
Kimball, the man who did the
shooting, was not over 30 years of
age. He came to Bradford from
Pleasauiville.Pa ,some years ago and
worked for a large producer here.
Later he went to Gardea City, Kan ,
and engaged iu real estate busi
ness, but was unsuccessful. A month
ago he returued to this city and was
injured in an accident ou February 5
on the New York, Penasylvauia
Ohio railroad, near Salamanca. He
leaves two children, who are iu Deu
ver, Col. His wife died three years
ago. Kimball's reputation was not
that of a desperado or even a criminal,
aud be was not thought capable of the
desperate deed of to day.—Pittsburg
