Why We Do 1t.

We are going to give these engravings
away primarily as a matter of gratitude to
the public. That is the first object we
have in view. We do not intend that Our
birthday anniversary shall be a money
making day. The truth is that we expect
to lose something.
Last year we gave away $500 butter
knives on Our fourth birthday. That one
days business showed a loss-but what of
it? The public has appreciated our efforts
to please them, and the extent of their
patronage has been so gratifying that we
can well afford to make Saturday, No
vember 2, day of celebration and no profit.
We have just issued 16-page booklet
that tells all about our pure, sweet But
terine. We want everybody who comes to
our birthday celebration to get one of
these booklets. If you can't come to the
celebration, you ought to have Butter
inc book, anyhow. We will send copy
by mail, if you so request.
The morning times., 1895-10-27
What Butterine Is

Butterine is made chiefly of oleo oil,
churned with large proportions of Cream
cry Butter and Cream. Oleo oil is pressed
from the sweet fat of beeves. 1t corre-
spends with the oil of natural butter. 1t is
of yellowish color, and its taste is sweet.
The particular goodness of oleo oil is
shown by the fact that it will not grow
rancid.
Butterine is made in creameries where
cleanliness is scrupulously observed. 1t
is put UP in neat packages. 1t is so clean
and pure that the eye sees it at once.
We sell three grades of Butterine.
1. Clover Creamery-the best Butterine
in the world. The price is 25c pound.
2. Alderney Creamery almost as good
as Clover. The price is zoe pound, or
19c if you buy 5 pounds or more. There
is really so little difference that it is next
to impossible to detect it. The purity of
the one equals the other, but the flavor of
Clover Creamery is trif1e more delicate.
We sell at least 100 pounds of A1derney to
one pound of Clover. It seems that Alder
ney suits almost everybody.
3. Extra generally used for cook
ing. 1t is absolutely pure, and costs 15c a
pound. It is better than the best butter,
and still it is the lowest priced Butterine.
The morning times., 1895-10-27

ject is SO far-reaching that We could occupy
this whole page in small type telling in de-
tail about the absolute, perfect, immacu-
late purity of Butterine
The very best people in Washington use
our Butterine. They do not buy it on the
score of economy, but because of superior
ity.
The fact that pure Butterine costs just
about half as much as ordinary Butter IS
not the reason why thousands of people
buy it, but still that fact is worth consid-
ering.
The morning times., 1895-10-27

There is mute but powerful argument
in those figures. There is nothing acci-
dental about the increase. People wouldn't
buy Butterine if it wasn't better than
Butter
The minute people try Butterine-t that
settles it. The minute they realize that
their objection to it is nothing but preju-
dice, just that minute they begin to save
money and begin to eat pure Butterine on
their bread.

Butterine Figures

The most astonishing thing about But
terine is its growth in opularity. The
increase of product in four years is diff
cult to realize.
The law requires us to furnish sworn
statements as to the extent of our Butter
inc output. Following is copy of the
figures fled with our report:

Good. Fresh Eggs

Our eggs are put UP in boxes OF one
dozen and two dozen. The boxes in which
we send them out have pockets When
an egg is put in pocket it won't break.
Our boxes are patented. No other dealer
can use them.
When you buy eggs of us we give
guarantee with each individual egg. If
somebody succeeds in selling bad egg to
us, we'll stand the 1oss-rlot you. You
can either have good eggs in place of any
possible bad ones, or you can have your
money.

Our Butterine.

We sell both Butter and Butterine. We
sell Butter because some few people pre-
fer it. If we had our own way we would
never handle Butter at all, and some day
there will be no demand for Butter what
ever.
1t is difficult for some people to under
stand that Butterine is better than Butter,
but there can be no possible doubt on this
point if you go into the question deep
enough.
Butterine is better than Butter because
it retains its purity and fine flavor almost
indefinitely. Butter begins to grow ran
cid the moment it leaves the churn. Those
few words tell the story, and still the SUBJ

The ice bath for sun stroke has be-

the Homeopathic Hospital in New
York city. When the patient, prostrat-

filled with chopped ice, aud the sufferer
is literally buried in it. only his head
protrnding. A sprinkler is fastened ut
the end Of the hose and this is allowed
to play upon the head. A boy was ex-

was apparently moribund. In few
minutes his temperature had fallen to
1O1 and 10 twenty minutes he had re-
