In buying food-prcxlucts, several things 4
are to be thought of i. e., Economy,
Results, Easy, Handling, Reliability, but
the most important is Health.
Health means everything. In buying
clothes, shoes, hats, furniture, etc., if the
buyer is deceived and gets an imitation
the only harm is loss of irioney. In buy
ing food-products, if imitations are sup
plied,, there is not only a loss of money,
tut perhaps an injury to health which
is beyond price. .
