RUMFORD

THE WHOLESOME Baking Powder

SURPASSES ALL OTHERS IN HEALTHFUL AND BAKING QUALITIES.

It is a food itself, made of the genuine Professor Horsford's Phosphate, thereby supplying the nutritious and strength-giving phosphates so essential to health, which are removed from flour in the process of bolting. Hot Biscuit, Rolls, Muffins, etc., made with Rumford Baking Powder can be eaten hot without detriment.

Its action in the dough is thorough, producing superior Cake, Biscuit, etc., of the finest texture, and without impairing the most delicate flavorings that may be used.

The Best at a Reasonable Cost.

SLADE'S CINNAMON ABSOLUTELY PURE ¼ LB. NET

=DELICIOUS FOOD=

Costs but little, if any more than disgusting food. It is the flavor that marks the difference between

MRS. HILL'S NEW BOOK COOKING TOR TWO

=Over 400 pages; over 100 illustrations.= =Price $1.50 net, postage 16c.=

COOKING FOR TWO is designed to give in simple and concise style, those things that are essential to the proper selection and preparation of a reasonable variety of food for a family of two individuals. At the same time by simply doubling the quantity of each ingredient given in a recipe, the dish prepared will serve four or more people.

The food products considered in the recipes are such as the housekeeper of average means would use on every day occasions, with a generous sprinkling of choice articles for Sunday, or when a friend or two have been invited to dinner, luncheon or high tea. Menus for a week or two in each month are given.

There is much in the book that is interesting, even indispensable, to young housekeepers, or those with little experience in cooking, while every housekeeper will find it contains much that is new and helpful.

=An ideal gift to a young housekeeper. The recipes are practical and are designed, and really are, "For Two."=

We will send "=Cooking for Two=" _postpaid_ on receipt of price; or to a present subscriber as a premium for sending us three (3) _new_ yearly subscriptions at $1.00 each.
