Nothing But Milk

Van Camps Is simply rich Holstcin
milk, with two-thirds the water evapo-
rated.
Nothing whatever is added-no sugar,
no starch, no preventative,
Don't confuse Van Camps with con-
densed milk. which is half sugar-a milk
that you can't use in cooking,
Van Camps comes to you just as 1t
comes from the COW, less part of the
water.
Analysis shows about 80 per cent of
solids, of which 3 per cent is butter fat.
Only the germs are lacking-the dan
gers. the impurities. the infections.

Milk is an animal product, like meat. II

1t is known that milk carries Consump-
ton. 1t is known that two-thirds of all
infant mortality is due to germs in milk.
Bowel troubles are caused by it-some-
times Typhoid.
Do you think it wise, when you can get
stcrilized milk, to accept for your children
such chances as that?

Each of our 10000 COWS is inspected.
So are the men who milk them.
Our diaries are sanitary. We make
business of cleanliness. Our buildings,
where the milk is cvaporated. are built
without wood.
All that science skill and care can do

Van Camps has been submitted to

found in it.
Not so with milknlan's milk.
Every drop of raw MILF Mas myriads of

are dangerous.
In Washington, D. c., it was recently
found that II per cent OF the dealers sold

And the germs in milk are known to
cause two-thirds of all infant mortality.
Of all the dangers that threaten man

For Children

The ablest physicians, again and again,
have passed on Van Camps Milk.
They could find no other milk SO safe
none so good. Nor can you.
Children can drink Van Camps with
out thought of germ infection. Its very
purity makes it doubly delicious.
And children like the slight almond

You don't let your children eat raw
meat. Don't let them drink raw milk.

Six Cents Per Quart

One pint of Van Camps when you re-
place the water, makes about three pints
of rich milk.
The cost of such milk, if you buy
Van Camps by the case. is about six
cents per quart
Van Camps when it comes to you, Is
as thick as thick cream. So thick that
you add one part water for coffee. Yet
it costs half what cream costs.
Then you have no waste-no shortage.
You open the cans as you need them.
So, the finest milk in America is also
the cheapest milk. Pure milk costs less
than impure--ich milk less than half

which lasted two days and nights, and
every one of the decorated booths was

more elaborate than last years event.
although planned on the same lines 1t
was found last year that there were
not enough side shows arranged to
entertain the patrons when they came,
there were not enough things for them
to buy and supplies of ices, cake and
candy gave out. So this year every
thing was done on larger scale, with
corresponding results. Last year
the funds raised were used to erect a
little comfort STATEN near the car
track. and this year the money probably
will be used as a starting fund for a
clubhouse account.

X openings days. business meetings
and the various entertainments
incidental to the visit of the COL
lege alumnae, the citys clubwomen
have had a busy week of it, and have
commenced their work for the winter
Almost all the large clubs held their
opening affairs last week. but as in
many cases this was merely a formal
business meeting. the coming week will
also be filled with club affairs. when
musical and dramatic programs and the
always popular cup of tea will be pre-
pared for guests as Well as members.
The California club, the Corona club,
Century club, Browning club and the
Cap and Bells club all had their first
meetings last week. and so did the as
sociations of pioneer women and the
women's auxiliary of the British and
American union. The Outdoor Art
league of the California club held a
most enjoyable picnic reunion on Tele-
graph hill last week, and all the out
of town clubs have reopened for the
season. On Thursday of this week the
Corona club will hold its first meeting,
and the members of the Clionian club
will reassemble tomorrow.
The reopening of the California club
was naturally the most important event
in club circles this week. for not only
is the popular organization the larg-
est of the city's womens clubs in point
of numbers, but it is also widest in
interest and in1eunce. Nearly 200
members were present on the opening
day, when Mrs. Edward L. Baldwin,
the new president. took her place for
the first time. Club business occu-
pied the opening hour and several in
teresting papers followed. The club
house has been put in order in every
way, repapered and retinted, and will
be better ventilated this year than it
was last. The first social day will be
on the 29th. when q Mexican pro-
gram Will be given, but meantime
the members may invite friends to the
meeting on September Is, when a lit
tie talk will be given on kindergarten
work by one of the states prominent
kindergarteners, and Rev. Father Ses-
non will sing.
brilliant reception was given by
the members of the Century club on
Friday afternoon in honor of the visit
ing college women, the affair being
also the formal opening of the club
Several hundred prominent club and

of the other clubs, meeting for a while
