Is the beneht to the farmer Of the

Members of Delaware Grange are

S2Ss, 900 last year on the distribution OF

The IDEAL WOMAN.

THE IDEAL WOMAN.
DR.. Lyman Abbott. editor OF the Out
look. outlines his conception Of the
ideal woman:
A woman who is not the slave OF
fashion nor the dressmaker.
Who is not afraid that work will
spoil her hands.
Who wears shoes in which she can
walk. thereby getting her color from
exercise instead Of the rouge box.
Who develops her love Of beauty in
her home.
Who is industrious. sympathetic,
energetic, enthusiastic, motherly and
true friend"
Well, that is considerable TO demand
Of one woman, is II not7
. And yet
There is nothing in the requirements
that call for the super-womanly. The
qualities specified are the old homely,
practical qualities that are to be found
in the average woman.
OF course you will not find these
qualities in the woman Of the Four
Hundred--or seldom.
These society danes, for the most
part, are the slaves Of fashion: coddle
their hands by frequent recourse to
the manicure; cripple to and from their
carriages in high heeled shoes and get
their complexions from art.
Paraphrasing Editor Abbotts emu
meration, we may say Of these women:
They are industrious-in their dissi-
/ pations; ympathetic-where sympathy
| Is not needed; energetic-in their at
| tendance on functions; motherly-to
their lap dogs true friends-while the
sun Of prosperity shines.
They concern themselves in nothing
more than the problem OF how to dou-
BILE on bridge. the symphony Of table
decorations, the newest fad on rhyth-
mic emotions or the whyness Of artis-
tic thusness.
But there are others. There are
hosts OF women who fill to the full the
measure Of ideal womanhood-
Women who are not afraid of soiling
their hands. who use sensible shoes
who wear their native colOrs on lip
and cheek, who are industrious, sym.
pathetic, energetic, enthusiastic, moth
erly and true friends"
More than that!
II you would picture many OF these
women you would need employ his
tory and rhetoric, because
Thousands Of our everyday women
are Esthers in attractiveness. Miriams
in courage. Sarahs in gracious dignity
Rachels in affection for their children
Marthas in devotion to their house
holds and Marys in their devotion tC

She got the money. and there were
others. It Was indeed wonderful how
the dew and the moonlight had sharp
ened her vision and her hearing. She
had even discovered an eminent citi-
zen feeding cucumbers to his old COW
in order to kill her with collie and get
the live stock insurance money. She
went away in a halo Of glory. and
ehree days after, when a drummer
asked the village president II anything
everJhappened there, the reply was:
"Not a thing. We are. sir, a very
quiet and very respectable community.
and I3hope your conduct duriag your
brief sstay among us win be without

Nothing But Milk

Van Camps is simply rich Holstein milk,
with two-thirds the water evaporated. Nothing
whatever is added. Nothing is subtracted save
water.
It's not peculiar milk.
Our COWS arc the finest breed Our dairies
are in the best dairying sections. Our milk is
evaporsted while it is fresh
That slight almond iavor-apparent only when
the milk is drunk colds due TO sterilization.
II means nothing added. 1t indicates simple
purity.
When you heat the milk-as in cooking or
ooTee-the almond flavor disappears. You have
then the natural favor Of milk or cream, save
our surprising richness.

No Disease Germs

The bane of raw milk is disease germs. For
any germ in milk breeds with frightful rapidity.
There may be germs of consumption from
tubereular cows, which are common. Infections
mayscome from diseased mikmen or from dirty
daries.
. These germs make raw milk the most terrible
foe of humanity. For one thing, two-thirds our
infant mortality is due to them.
Van Camps milk is germless
Our cows are inspected; so are the men who
milk them. Our dairies are sanitary. Our
buildings are built without wood. We make
business of cleanliness.
Then Van Camps is pasteurired after the cans
are sealed Not germ of any kind can remain
in it
Evening journal., 1909-06-01
Six Cents Per Quart

Van Camps is as thick as thick crezm-so
thick that you add one part water for coffee.
Yet it doesn't cost half what you pay your milk
man for cream.
Add two parts water and you have rich milk
The cost OF such milk, when you buy Van
Camps by the case, is but six cents per quart.
Then you have no waste--no milk left over
That saving, in itself, is enormous.
So you have COW in your kitchen-rieh milk
or cream whenever YOU want It. And it costs
less than hand-to-mouth buying
. You have pure. rich milk for less than you
pay your milkmsn.

Matchless Milk Dishes

Just make one milk dish with Van Camps.
Note the wonderful favor and richness. Then
you'll forever use IT,
Yet that favor is not artificial. II comes solely
from the whole, rich milk
You are used TO cooking with half-milk-you
who buy from the Inilkman. For milkman's
milk separates, before and after you get it.
The butter fat rises; the solids fall You get
so YOU don't know what whole milk means.
You get all the milk in Van Camps.
Evening journal., 1909-06-01
But Be Careful

Condensed milk is half sugar You can't use
il for cooking. Don't think that Van Camps is
like that
And don't think that all evsporated milks are
alike.
Van Camps milk shows about per cent Of
butter fat. That's because we use Holstein
milk, and take out two-thirds Of the water.
But milk less rich, and with more water left
in may still be called 'evaporated"
II you'll compare Van Camps with other
brands, you will see what difference there is.
Yet others cost as much
as Van Camps. E--4--sa
