why Yeast Powder should be Used.

Because it is much more convenient than
brewers or hop yeast, produces better and
more nutritious food, and never fails CT
success. This IS particularly applicable to
Dooley's Yeast Powder, as each package
not only contains the fu weight as repre-
sented, but the contents are perfectly free
from any injurious substances. Moth
ing enters into its composition but articles
that are healthy and nOurishing, and the
bread prepared with it is such as can be
eaten with IMMUNITY by the most sensitive
invalids. For sale by grocers everywhere.
