THE WORLDS
BREAD-BASKET
It costs more to fill it now
than it did a few years aJo.
Allfhemore reason it should
be filled with real food
the hind that supplies the
greatest amount of body-,
building material at smallest
cost. Shredded Wheat
BiSCllit is all food. It is
100 per cent whole wheat
contains more real nutriment
than meat or eggs or po
tatoes and costs much less.
Two Biscuits served with hot milk make a
wann, nourishing dish for the cold days.
Delicious with sliced bananas or other fruits.
Bay your Abbotts Ice Cr.am in
tbo now-famous "machine-filled
packago"that brings Abbotts from
freezer to you untouched by hand.
Convenient to carry. Mokes serv
ing easier, And costs no more.
GOLDEN GLO
WE intended it to be only a
"special" for Christmas.
But it was so instantly popular
everywhere that we have added
it to our regular flavors. All
Abbotts dealers now sell it
GOLDEN GLO is too delicious to be
described by words. If you could see
how children eat it how grown-ups,
too, smile with satisfaction at the first
spoonful you'd believe us, that
'GOLDEN GLO" is the tastiest ice
crearn ever introduced in Philadelphia!
When buying ice cream, look for the
familiar red and white Abbotts side
walk sign. There's one conveniently
near your home.
