A Good Word For the Salmon.

Salmon live and flourish only In the
purest waters of the seven seas and In
the clearest of the rivers that flow into
them. They exercise the utmost care
In choosing the places where they
breed and feed. From the time of their
birth to the day they are caught they
live In surroundings that are as nearly
perfect from a sanitary point Of view
as nature can make them. and from the
time they are caught and packed until
they are placed before human beings
as food they are kept beyond all dan
ger of contamination. Their meat has
an attractive appearance, has de-
licious flavor. Is readily digestible and
contains az much. II not more. of the
elements that are required by the hu-
man system than other forms Of meat
