ICE TALK.

Well, how about ice FOR next
summer? Don't you think it
would be a good plan to sign
that card and send it in SO you
will be sure of absolutely pure
ice at our low price; and it is
not only pure, but it is solid,
clear ice, that many who have
used it say will last from one
quarter to one-half longer than
the ice they used to get before
we started to make our ice. It
may save a doctor bill and be
worth twice what we charge for
it on that account.
