A WORD TO MOTHERS.

Condensed milk is well known as food in
the whole civilized world; it is a substitute
for fresh cows milk, which cannot always
be had, and cannot be kept in a suitable
condition for long time. When the now
deceased Gail Borden, man of rare talent
and at the same time of practical Ameri-
can intelligence, more than forty years ago
and after many experiments, placed
his valuable preparation at the disposal
of his astonished contemporaries, he. like
all other benefactors of mankind, had TO
fight against ignorance and illwill. The
fact that he was able to convince the
world in comparatively short time of the
excellence OF his invention, so that it is
today known to every child on earth, can
only astonish those who are either unable
to estimate the value of condensed milk or
who do not want to acknowledge the same
onaccount of their ilI-will or ignorance.
Gail Borden Eagle Brand Conden sed Milk
solves in the most simple way the difficult
problem Of clearing fresh cows milk OF all
its component parts which are detriment
to health, but also of preserving just those
which in this kind of milk are the most de-
sirable ones for human beings in all stages
of life. The complete sterilization of the
milk, including the condensing process, the
full use of all the fat and cream it con-
tains, and finally the addition of sugar
in about the same proportion contained in
normal mothers milk, has secured posi-
ton for Borden's preparation for the feed
ing of babies which cannot be claimed by
any other. Mothers who for any reason
whatsoever are unable or do not want to
nurse their children, will find in BoIden's
Condensed Milk a substitute for mothers
milk, complying absolutely with all re-
quirements Of hygiene. There are millions
Of children who owe their life and health
to Borden's milk. The number Of physicians
and Iaymen is daily increasin who consider
it the most important nutriment for the
little ones.
1t is therefore only natural that the
extension of the establishment of the
New York Condensed Milk Co. is in exact
proportion with the demand for the ar
ticle in question. 1t would be an easy
matter to prove by figures that no other
establishment like Borden's prepares such
immense quantities of milk. These figures
would on account of their startling amou unit,
only spur the envy OF our COmpeuiUoTS,
and be OF no avail for our readers.
The growth Of the factories necessary
for the manufacturing of condensed milk
is not only caused by the demand for a
substitute of mothers milk, which has
to be supplied by the New York Condensed
Milk Co., but also by the demand for
the various uses of condensed milk in
the household. 1t supplies the place OF
fresh cream when used with coffee, tea
and chocolate. 1t excels even the best
cream from the health cows, and is of
the most unsurpassing purity, containing
hygienic ingredients not existing in cream.
The attention of those who wish to In
form themselves about Gail Borden Eagle
Brand condensed milk and its use for
infants, is called to valuable pamphlet
entitled Babies" which will be mailed
On application. This pamphlet also con-
tains valuable directions how to treat
babies and infants. This pamphlet cannot
be too highly recommended to those in
