Care In Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by it's purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi-
nently as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as it
could possibly be is Quaker Oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest of
all foods. The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufactures of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem of removing the husks and black
specks which are so annoying when
other brands are eaten. If you are
convenient to the store buy the reg
ular size packages; if not near the
store, buy the large size family pack
