had been turned back from the win
dows which opened on the street, and
the curtains had been removed. On
the bare hardwood floor just beneath
the windows was an array of pans Of
various sizes, dish pans, cake tins,

raised from the floor on bricks, and
seemed to be full Of paper. All the
chairs and tables were pushed back
against the wall, and the bric-a-brac

me without an idea of my presence.

Avoid the Cheap and "Big Cam Bak-
inQ Powders.

The cheap baking powders have but one
recommendation: they certainly give the
purchaser plenty of powder for his money
but it's not all baking powder; the bulk
is made up of cheap materials that have
no leavening power. These powders are
rials that they will not make light. whole
some food. Further, these cheap baking
powders have a very small percentage of
leavening gas; therefore it takes from two
to three times as much of such powder to
raise the cake or biscuit as it does of Calu-
met Baking Powder. Therefore, in the long
run, the actual cost to the consumer of the
cheap powders is more than Calumet
would be.
Why not buy perfectly wholesome bak-
ing powder like Calumet, that is at the
same time moderate in price and one
which can be relied upon? Calumet gives
the cook the least trouble.
