THE amount of baking powder

called for in a recipe may seem small...

but think how much de- pends on it. All your other fine in- gredients. Naturally, you don't want to waste them-but' that's just what may happen if your bak- ing powder fails.

Royal Baking Powder, sold only in scaled tins, is always uniform, always reliable. It pays to bake with Royal especially when it costs so little. Royal gives a finer flavor, a more even texture than ordinary baking powder. Your cakes will come from the oven light, tender and deli- cious!
