A Great Roast!

Over ton of Arbuckles' Ariosa
Coffee is roasted at a time, in . large
revolving cylinder, which drops the
coffee through heat again and again
until each bean is uniformly roasted.
No other coffee is in suffi-
Gent demand to afford such
scientific and perfect prepara-
ton.
The sales of Arbuckles' Ariosa
Coffee exceed the sales Of all other
packaged coffees combined, and this
scientific roasting, which no other
coffee can afford, by its very magni.
tude, reduces our cost to a minimum,
and enables us, with our other advant-
