Nature's Gift from the Sunny South otto leu e Shortens jw.fbodr Latftkns mr life SHORT LOCAL ITEMS. An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth A Pound Of Cure w i \ Human na ture is hard to solve. Peo ple who are most particular about adapting the weight of their wearing ap parel to the season and its condi tions, who would never think of going out in a storm without an umbrella and rubbers, who would not sit in a draft for a farm, will calmly sit at the table and stuff themselves with lard-soaked food and not realize for an instant that it is likely to give them a full-fledged case of indi gestion and clog their whole inner machinery. Lard is produced from hog fats, sometimes impure, always indigest ible, and there’s a good day coming when no one will think of using it for cooking. Cottolene is the only rational frying and shortening medium in the world. It is made from refined vegetable oil and choice beef suet— everything about it is digestible and conducive to health. It is a product of Nature—a Gift from the Sunny South. It will make pure, palatable, healthful food, and food which anyone can eat and enjoy without the after pangs of a disordered stomach. Every good grocer sells Cottolene. It comes only in sealed white pails with a red label and band. In the center of the label is our trade mark—a steer’s head in cotton plant wreath. Try Cottolene once and you’ll nevermore be a friend to lard. USE 56 LESS. Cottolene being richer than either lard or cooking butter, one-third less is required.
