State Just What You Want.

There is a lot of the most desirable
trade that no one can get who doesn't
handle "Clifton" flour. Users OF "Clif-
ton" can't be satisfied with any other
kind. "Cliftop'i has established q new
standard OF purity and the highest ex-
cellence. II you have not used "Clif-
ton" recently, you should by all means
instruct your grocer to send you a sack
when you order flour again. Don't let
him persuade you he has something
just as good.p He may be buying
other so-called patent -four at a little
less than he pays for "Ciifton' and he
naturally wants to push this on you
because he makes o few cents more on
it. Insist on having "Clifton", IL you
want the purest and best.

All Glasses Can Get 1t,

The groc3rs who are handling "Clif-
ton" flour are the mes who have the
best trade and the highest grip On it.
"Clifton'' is a flour of quality, and goes
into the homes of people who want the
best the market affords, and this ap-
plies In this free country to all from
the lowest to the highest station. No
sumptuary laws can prevent the hum
blest American citizen from buying
the purest and best flour, and every
good hOusckceper knows she gets the
purest and best when she buys "Clif-
ton"
