It is the oldest Cream of Tartar Baking Powder in the world, and has stood the test of 40 years. SECONDLY.Its makers have never succumbed to the temptation to introduce ammonia or alum in their goods, for the purpose of cheapening the cost. Thirdly, -It is made from the purest Cream of Tartar, refined in the immense plant at Jersey City controlled by this company, by patented processes used by no other refiner. Fourthly. The governments of the United States and Canada have endorsed Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder after thorough examination, as have also the heads of our great universities, prominent physicians, boards of health and the public. It is used in the United States Army and Navy and in the cuisines of the most select clubs, hotels and private families. ' ; , - Fifthly. It is just what it is represented to te, viz- a pure Cream of Tartar powder and can stand on its record wHhout any bolstering up by means of fraudulent certificates, or resorting to any other tricks practised sometimes success fullyby other makers of so-called "absolutely pure" powders.
