C, and recently completed, furnishe-j the highest authoritalive information as to which h the best baking powder. The Official Report shows the Royal Baking Powder to be a cream of tartar baking powder, superior to all others in strength and leavening power. The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure, mada from the most wholesome materials, and produces finer flavored, sweeter, lighter, more palatable, wholesome and delicious bread, biscuit, cake, pastry, etc., than any other baking powder or leavening agent. Being of greater strength than any other baking powder, it i.s al-io the most economical in use. If there arc any housekeepers not using the Royal Baking Powder, these great qualities warrant them in making a trial of it. THE MARSTON MURDER.
