Try It On Toast
Serve toast for breakfast tomor
row, but instead of using high-priced
lmtter, buy a pound of Benefit Brand
"Sweet Nut" Margarine at 35c. Let
it soak in well. You'll be surprised
how the folks "go to" this new toast.
Don't get scared at the name "Mar
garine." because this new table deli
cacy doesn't contain a particle of
animal ft —just the nutritious part,
of pure white cocoanut meats churn
ed with milk, it has the same nutri
tive value and looks and tastes just
like butter when served, but costs
about half as much. Makes a deli
cious spread on toast, bread, biscuits,
Johnny-cakes, etc. "Sweet Nut" Mar
garine satisfies every table require
ment—children often prefer it. Sold
only at Tatnsui Tea Co.'s 331 Market
St., up 1 flight, Harrisburg. where
Benefit Brand Teas, Coffees and Gro
cery Specialties are retailed at whole
sale prices.
Look for our store in your town.
IF MOTHER ONLY KNEW
During these days how many chil
dren are complaining of headache,
feverishness, stomach troubles and
irregular bowels. If mothers' only
knew what Mother Gray's Sweet
Powders would do for their children
no family would ever be without
them. These powders are so easy
and pleasant to take and so effec
tive in their action that mothers
who once use them always tell other
mothers about them. Sold by drug
gists everywhere.
