Economy is Wealth,

Poor Richard says. If this be true, then il is wise in every family to use Duryeas Satin Gloss Starch in preference to any other. becanse it is the most economical ever manufactured in the world It is the most economical because it Is the best; ii is the cheapest because it is the best. II is purer, winter and stronger than any other starch. It's effect will last twice as long as any other starch. Il has received the highest award over Tll competitors in tbe four quarters of the globe. Don't be deceived by your gro cer. Ask for Duryeas' improved Corn Starch for food, and Durs eas' Satin Gloss Starch for laundry purposes, and take no other.
