Each Spoonful has
done its Perfect Work.

Is the verdict of every woman who has used Royal
Baking Powder. Other baking powders soon
deteriorate and lose their strength. owing to the
use of inferior ingredients. but Royal Baking
Powder is so carefully and accurately CON-
pounded from the purest materials that it retains
its strength for any length of time, and the last
spoonful in the can is as good as the first, which
is not true of any other baking powder.
