There’s But One Safe Way to Buy * ’r I keep in close touch? with market conditions of food products. lam correctly informed as to the cash and food value of practically every article of table and baking use. My knowledge and close acquaintance with baking materials and their quality and money worth passed on to you in my articles, should aid in the selection of proper foods at proper prices. you have often heard the expression that “water seeks its own level.” This same thought might well be applied to merchandise. Inferior merchandise may find a ready demand When first put on the market but its inferiority is soon found out —and its sale usually takes a slump. Hence I have come to the conclusion that the biggest seller is the best buy. When some certain brand is given a wide preference over all similar merchandise it means but one thing— merit has proved it best. So it follows that if housewives would purchase only merchandise that meets the greatest demand their buying would be far more satisfactory. I have noticed invariably that the demand for a product always verifies the value of a product determined by scientific tests —which proves my contention conclusively. Take baking powder. The biggest selling brand on the market today proved to mt by the most critical experiments that it is entitled to the preference it has gained. There are more pounds of Calumet sold than any other brand of baking powder. Usage has proved its superiority —my tests pointed to the same fact. The woman who buys Calumet eliminates all possible waste. She profits by the experience of millions of women who after testing many different brands of baking powder find Calumet best. It is safe to buy because overwhelming choice shows the supreme satisfaction it renders the vast majority of housewives. I have made investigations and trips through many plants that manufacture food articles, and I have yet to find a finer and better equipped, more up to date, sanitary plant than that of the Calumet Bering Powder Co. Anyone who will visit this plant will readily understand why they should and how they do manufacture baking powder that fills all the requirements. <4 X <_ ■* * NOTE—Miss Costello is already well known to most of the ladies tff our city.
