THE HIGHEST AWARD.

Royal Baking Powder In Strength and Value >0 Per Cent. Above Its Nearest Competitor. Tho Royal Baking Powder has the enviable record of having received the highest award for articles of its class —greatest strength, purest ingredients, most perfectly combined -wherever exhibited in comoetition with otheis. In the exhibitions of lormer years, at the Centennial, at Faris, X’ienna and at the various State and industrial fairs, where it has been exhibited, judges have invariably awarded the Royal Baking Powder the highest honors. At the recent World s Fair the examination for the baking powder awards were made by the experts of the chemical division of the Agricultural Department of Washington. The official report of the tests of the baking i owders which were made by this department for the specific purpose of ascertaining which was the best, and which has been made public, shows the learning strength of the Royal to be ICO cubic inches of carbonic gas per ounce of powder. Of the cream of tartar baking powders exhibited at the Fair, the next highest fn strength thus tested contained but 133 cubic Inches of leavening gas. The other powders gave an average of 111. The Royal, therefore, was found of 20 per cent gneater leavening strength than its nearest competitor, and 44 per cent, above the average of all the other tests. Its superiority In other respects, however, in the quality of the food it makes as to fineness, delicacy and wholesomeness, could not be measured by figures. It is these high qualities, known and appreciated by the women of the country for so many years, that have caused the sales of the Royal Baaing Powder, as shown by statistics, to exceed the sales of all other baking powders combined.
