REASON To REJOICE,

Surrounded as we are by adulterators OF food
and drink, and living in the midst of their vile
products, it ought to produce at least u refresh
ing sensation to be told where a real genuine
article can be obtained. Such u specIcs of
qualification may be had by purchasing a box
tie OF his Fiavoring Extract. Economical
housekeepers, will no doubt have every reason
to rejoice after making such a thrifty invest
ment; for the biscuits and articles made with
DR.. Prices Baking Powder are really elegant,
while the flavor to cakes, puddings. and sauces
that his Fiavoring Extracts give, are us nat
ural as The fruit from which they are made.
Aside from this, their absolute purity renders
them wholesome and agreeable to the most
delicate stomach
