There is a Real Difference
Cream of tartar, derived from grapes,
is used in Royal Baking Powder because
it is the best and most healthful ingredient
known for the purpose.
Phosphate and alum, which are de
rived from mineral sources, are used in
some baking powders, instead of cream of
tartar, because they are cheaper.
If you have been induced to use baking
powders made from alum or phosphate,
use Royal Baking Powder instead. You
will be pleased with the results and the
difference in the quality of the food.

EATS LIKE 1 PIG
SLEEPS LIKE LAMB
Youngstown Woman Laughing
ly Tells of the Astonish
ing Relief She Gained
"I can eat like a pig and sleep like a
lamb," laughingly said Mrs B. Hen
derson, of 116 South HazeL stieet,
Youngstown, Ohio.
"I know this sounds rather 'pig
rish', " Mrs. Henderson explained,
"but I can hit upon no words that de
scribe my present condition better.
Especially is this true after the many
years of suffering I went through.
'Indigestion, catarrh of the head,
nose and throat, kidney and liver
trouble and nervousness all had a
tight grip on me. Words cannot de
scribe the pains and agony I under
went. "There was a bloating of gas on my
stomach after eating, I suffered head
aches, my nose was stopped up, mu
cous formed in my throat, my eyes
were weak at times and my kidneys
were sore. A general-run-down condi
tion of health is what I really suffered
from. Never did I feel energetic and
it was impossible for me to relish food.
"I tried almost every medicine that
came along, but none of them did me
any good. I finally concluded that
there was no hope for my recovery. I
read of Tanlac, friends told me about
in, and relatives begged me to take it
at first, but I kept on refusing. Each
day my condition grew worse and I
was driven by desperation, I suppose
to take another chance on tlnding re
lief in a proprietary medicine.
"Ten days of Tanlac treatment made
a new woman of me. No longer do -I
suffer from any of the old ailments.
Oh, what a pleasure it is to feel good
once more. I can't help from prais
ing Tanlac day and night. If jany of
my friends or people who hear of my
case suffer anything like I did, I urge
them to take Tanlac."
Tanlac is being introduced in Co
lumbia at the Page & Hamilton drug
store.
