True Economy
The difference of cost between a
good and a poor baking pow
der would not amount for a fam
ily's supply to one dollar a year.
The poor powcler would cost
many times this in doctors' bills.
Royal Baking Powder may cost a little
more per can, but it insures perfect,
wholesome food. In fact, it is more
economical in the end, because it goes
further in leavening and never spoils
the food.
Royal Baking Powder used always in
making the biscuit and cake saves both
health and money.

We lust one ot our ablest generals when

almost to love him, for ho was always look

Americans In high regard because we havo
