The Secret of Successful
Baking

Many women entertain the
idea that they can never become
thoroughly good cooks. They
may be perfectly able to pre-
pare meats and vegetables prop
erly. Still they make a miser-
able failure at baking. When one
gives the matter serious consid-
Grafton ii becomes evident that
the fault rests more In faulty
baking powder than careless or
haphazard baking methods. This
must be true. For it is a well
known fact that'housewives who
employ Calumet Baking Powder
are highly successful. They do
not know the meaning of bake
day failure. Even girls who
never before attempted to bake
a cake-a batch of doughnuts
biscuits or cookies employ Cal
umet Baking Powder and turn
out baking that rivals those of

Calumet the greatest seller of all
baking powders more pounds
being sold than Of any other
brand.
Cheap baking powders and
high cost baking powders of low
quality have proved to millions
of housewives that no matter
how good the recipe how great
the care in preparing and mixing
baking ingredients results are
uncertain unless a sure baking
is employed. Conse-
quently these millions demand
and use Calumet because of its
every bake day dependability.

generous with every good cause. He
loved the house of God and would
rather fellowship in the church ser
