Introduced in tho year 1865, This Powder is famous throughout New Zealand for its absolute purity and strength. It makes LIGHT, DELICIOUS, FLAKY BREAD AND CAKE. Several months ago the New York papers contained a list of Thirty-one Baking Powders made of Alum. The action of alum on the stomach i- the aame as on the mouth, though, from the Bmalliu'ss of the quantity appearing in the bread, i 3 not noticeable, but, taken month after month, problems those unpleasant disorders that many people nuffer from. Tho delicate membranes of tho f-totnach and intestinal canal shouM never be brought in contact with alum, save in a case of medical necessity. The housekeeper should bear in mind that an absolutely FURS POWDER liUe SHARLAND'S cannot be buught at the same price as an inferior article. This Powder is made from Grape Cream Tartar, aud is guaranteed Pubh in every other respect. ■ Testimonial .• f I have chemically examined aud tested the Baking Powder manufactured by Sharland & Co., and I have found it to be perfectly pure, and free from any sub.-tance that would he «bjectiouoble in the preparation of food. I use the Bread made with it at my own table, and find it very satisfactory — G. H. Haikes, 8.A., M.D., M.Ch., L.A.H., F.R G S., L.M. Sod by all storekeepers. In canisters, Is. 6d. aud 2s. Gd.
