mixture that will not cake" or lose its strength,
or that follow changes Of proprietorship or manu-
facturcrs. The Royal Baking Powder is always
certain and equal in its work; teaspoonful does
the same perfect work to-day that it did yesterday,
or last week or month, or last year.
While the last teaspoonful in a can OF Royal Is
as good as the first, other powders lose their
strength after being made short time, and par
ticularly after the can is opened.
The exactness with which the active principle
of each ingredient prior to mixing is ascertained
by expert chemists; the actual prohibition enforced
against the receipt into the works Of an impure IN
predient; the care with which the materials arc
dried, coated and prepared before their combina-
ton, and the precision in packing the powder SO
that il shall be delivered to the consumer in the

manufacturers There have been great many
limitations Of the Royal, but no equals. Pure
materials are not employed, care is not taken IN
their preparation and combination, while In the
great majority Of baking powders alum is added to
give them strength, while cheapening their cost
The great popularity and general use of the
ROYAL Baking Powder attest its superiority.

II you want the best food, you will be interested
in the following facts, which show why Royal"
is the best baking powder, why it makes the best
and most wholesome food, and why its use has
become almost universal-its sale greater in this
country than the sale of all other cream OF tartar
baking powders combined.
The Royal Baking Powder NEVER Calls.
1t IL absolutely pure and wholesome.
1t Is combined from tho most approved
and healthful ingredients.
1t makes the finest favored, most tender,
delicious and wholesome food.
1t has greater lcavening strength than
any other baking powder, and Is therefore
the cheapest
1t never loses its strength, but will keep
fresh and of full leavening power until
used.
1t acts slowly I'm the dough, SO that none
of its strength is lost before the baking is
completed.
1t makes food that will keep sweet, moist
and fresh longer, or that may be eaten hot
and fresh with impunity.
The reasons why the Royal Baking Powder is
superior to all others in these respects are easily
stated. One is because it is made from chemically
pure materials; another is because 1t IS made with
greater care and accuracy than any Other 1t IS
always uniform in composition and leavening
power. It has been the standard baking powder
since its introduction. The founder and con-
ductor Of its business ever since Is stu at
