[ROYAL I Baking Powder Economy The manufacturers of Royal Bak ing Powder have always declined to produce a cheap baking powder Iat the sacrifice of quality. Royal Baking Powder is made from pure grape cream of tartar, and is the embodiment of all the excellence possible to be attained in the high est class baking powder. Royal Baking Powder costs only a fair price, and is more economical at its price than any other leavening agent, because of the superlative quality and absolute wholesomeness of the food it makes. i Mixtures made in imitation of baking powders, but containing alum, are frequently distributed from door to door, or given away in grocery stores. Such mixtures are dangerous to use in food. In England, France, Germany and some sections of the United States their sale is prohibited by law. Alum is a dangerous mineral acid, and all physicians condemn baking powders containing it. Tho tabol of alum baking r - wticrs must show tho InorodiOk'itSm READ THE LABEL CHAMPION TOMATO GKOWEK.
