as much economy as from any
other article used in baking and
cooking. In selecting the bak-
ing powder, therefore, care should
be exercised to purchase one
that retains its original strength
and always remains the same,
thus making the food sweet and
wholesome and producing suffici-
ent leavening gas to make the
baking light.
Very little of this leavenng gas
is produced by the cheap baking
powders, making it necessary to
use double the quantity ordinarily
required to secure good results.
You cannot experiment every
time you make a cake or biscuits
or test the strength of your bak-
ing powder to find out how much
of it you should use; yet with
most baking powders you should
do this, for they are put together
so carelessly they are not uniform,
the quality and strength varying
with each can purchased.
Calument Baking Powder is
made of chemically pure ingre-
dients of tested strength. En-
perienced chemists put it up.
rhe proportions Of the different
materials remain always the
same. Sealed in air-tight cans.
Calumet Baking Powder is not
affected by atmospheric changes.
In using Calumet you are bound
to have uniform bread, cake or
biscuits, as Calumet does not con-
tain any cheap. useless or adult
terating ingredients so commonly
used to increase the weight.
Further, it produces pure, whole.

goods are moderate in price, and
any lady purchasing Calumet
from her grocer. if not satisfied
with it, can return it and have
her money refunded.
