When you buy Lard you get more than
you bargain for It's heavier in
your stomach than on the scales
Lard is a foe to digestion. If you
had the stomach of an ostrich you could
hardly withstand the ravages of lard
soaked pastry. You have probably
found this out -and already given up the
eating of pastry. Tis wholly unneces
sary! Anyone can eat and digest food
cooked with COTTOLENE, the perfect
shortening. It is a pure vegetable
product, made from the best beef suet
and choicest vegetable oil.
When you buy lard you have no pro
tection as to quality you simply know
'you are getting LARD never mind
the grade, it's just L-A-R-D. On the
other hand,every pail of COTTOLENE
in uniform the product is guaranteed.
You take no chances whatever.
In the face of these facts just ask
yourself if you can afford to use hog lard
when you can get pure,
healthful, nutritious ,
COTTOLENE. .
We hereby authorize your
grocer to refund your money
Cottolene it Guaranteed
in case you're not pleased after having given COTTOLENE a fair test.
