URTNO hard times consumers
cannot afford to experiment
with inferior, cheap brands of bak
ing powder. It is NOW that the
great strength and purity of the
ROYAL stand out as a friend in need
to those who desire to practise Econ
omy in the Kitchen. Each spoonful does its per
fect work. Its increasing sale bears witness that
t is a necessity to the prudent it goes further.
N R
i 1 Grocers say that every dollar in
vested in Royal Baking Powder is
worth a dollar the world over, that it
does not consume their capital in dead
stock, because: it is the great favorite,
und sells through all times and seasons.
