The Best Things
In Cookery

Are always made with the ROYAL BAK-'
ING POWDER. 1t imparts that peculiar
lghtness, sweetness and flavor noticed
in the finest rolls, biscuit, cake, ETC.,
and which the most expert pastry cooks
declare is unobtainablc by the use of
any other raising agent.
The ROYAL BAKING POWDER, besides
rendering the food more palatable and
wholesome, is, because of its higher
leavening power, the most economical.
The ROYAL makes more and better
food than any other baking powder
because it is the purest.
