It is the high
quality of Royal
Baking Powder
that hr..
estab-
lished its great
and world-wide
v reputation.
Every house
wife knows she
can rely upon
it: that it makes
the bread and
biscuit more delicious and whole
some always the finest that can
be baked.
It is economy and every way
better to use the Royal, whose
work is always certain, never
experimental.
There are many imitation baking
powders, made from alum. They
may cost less per pound, but
their use is at the cost of health.
