CREAM
BAKING POWDER
A pure, healthful, Cream of
Tartar Baking Powder
When buying an article of food you are
entitled to know exactly what you are buying
—its quality and ingredients.
If this information is refused don't buy it.
Some of the low grade baking powders are
advertised, but the ingredients of the powders
are scrupulously concealed.
A housekeeper would not use a baking pow-
der containing alum if she knew it.
It is well when buying to examine
the label on the can. Unless it shows the
ingredient cream of tartar, don't buy it.
Dr. Price's baking powder is abso-
lutely free from alum.
