False Economy

Perhaps you use an alum baking
powder because you think it is
cheaper and theref ore more eco
nomi cal. But is it?
Leading food experts and medi-
cal authorities have for years
declared that alum baking powders
are not safe to be used. The
chief European nat ons prohibit
them alt ogether.
Can it be truthful1y said that
an article Of food SO generally
condemned is economi cal at any
price?
Royal Baking Powder, which is
made from cream of tartar, adds
only hea1thfu1 qualities to the
food.
The difference in cost Of
pan of biscuits or of cake made
with Royal Baking Powder as
pared with cheap alum or phos-
phate Of lime powders is about one
cent, which is surely too small an
amount 20 warrant the risk.
