Baking Powder
Calumet Baking Powder of Chicago
When company comes there is no time to waste – no chances to be taken – so mother sees that there is always a can of Calumet Baking Powder on hand. Cakes, pies, doughnuts, muffins and all good things to eat must be dressed up in their best taste and looks.
Then; too, her reputation as a cook must be upheld – and she “stakes” it on Calumet every time. She knows it will not disappoint her.
Order a can and have the “company” kind of bakings every day.
Calumet contains only such ingredients as have been approved officially by the U.S. Food Authorities.
You save when you buy it.
You save when you use it.

Only a Cold.
Are you ill? Is often answered “Oh, it’s only a cold”, as if a cold was a matter of little consequence, but people are beginning to learn that a common cold is a matter not to be trifled with, that some of the most serious of cases start with a cold. As soon as the first indication of a cold appears take Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. Remember that the sooner you get rid of your cold the less the danger, and this remedy will help you to throw it off.
