NAPOLEON'S VALUE OK VICTORY.
It Finds A Striking Counterpart in Recent
World Triumphs
Napoleon knew well the value
of a victory. After Austerlitz
the world seemed his. Fame
invited, fortune favored, every-
thing stimulated his aspiring
ambition. With groviig power
| he gathered the fruits of victory.
| And so it has ever been. Success
succeeds. A notable illustration
I of this truth is furnished by the
j great victories won at the World's
\ Fair in '!)!] and the California
Midwinter Fair - in '94 by Dr.
Price's Cream Baking Powder.
Ever increasing sales and popu-
larity have been the result. The
people have promptly ratified the
official verdicts that declared Dr.
Price's, for leavening power,
keeping qualities, purity and gen-
eral excellence "the foremost
baking powtler in all the world."
Quite as quickly as the great em-
peror do they know the value of
a victory "that means world-wide
supremacy.
