Pure Cream Of Tartar mo Tartaric Acid
and other harmless materials III their
proper proportions.
The pure food laws which are being
enacted blythe different states are hav-
ing beneficial effect to suppress the use
OF adulterants-in articles of food, but the
cause of their use is due in large degree
to the parties who will purchase these
dangerous articles. They are sometimes
cheaper in price but their evil effects are
bound TO react, ard many internal inHan-
matory troubles are caused from the use
of Alum. Ammonia. and so forth, in
Baking Powders
Another point besides its perfect
purity. which. cOmmends the Imperial
Baking Powder TO the public at large, is
the reasonable prices at which it is Of
fered to the consumer. In comparison
with the price of any other
nigh grade powder on the
market they show a saving Of, at least, 20
per cent. by the use of Imperial.
The manufacturers state that they are
enabled tOsell their powder at these low
prices in the fact that they are content
with a Legitimate profit. feeling assured
that when party once uses Imperial they

irst-class grocery in Savannah and else
where in the states of Georgia, Florida
and South Carliua. as well as in such cit
les as Washington, ID. c., Richmond, Va.
aud other points
The work of Introducing an article Of
this character, with the enormous compe-
tition in this line, is necessarily slow; but
the manufacturers are highly gratified
with the progress they are making. All
they ask is trial of the powder; ard
they will gladly forward free sample
can 10 any one who will request it.
The fact that consumer pays 40 cents
per pound for baking powder, better and
purer than the majority sold AZ 30 cents
and unsurpassed by any, is sufficient to
warrant the economical h0usekeeper to
give the Imperial Baking Powder a trial.
