'LUyBURCER" beer
NOW ON The MARKET

"Luxburger" beer. the new product
of the Bavarian Brewing Company. the
naming of which aroused much inter-
est in Wilmington last October. is
now on the market. This brew, made
from the very best hops and malt to
be had and under absolutely sanitary
conditions, and bottled in the most
modern bottling establishment in
the east. is claimed by the
makers, to be the equal Of any of the
imported or nationwide known do
nestle brews.
The Bavarian Brewing Company has
expended thousands of dollars in the
perfection of "LuNburger' beer II
withheld this product from the mar
kct until perfected in every detail. The
result of these labors. is gratifying
to the company. While containing a
low percentage of alcohol. "Luxburg-
or" beer has the smack and taste of
the much more expensive foreign
brews. It has been analyzed and lest
ed over a period of several months.
The company invites most rigid ex-
animation of this product. II contains
no substances foreign to a well brew
ed beer. The members say that as a
body builder il has no equal. It's cost
is a trine more than the regular bot
tied beers but this additional expense
was added TO the cost of production
to make il a perfect brew.
The local company has located a
branch in Philadelphia where Lux
burger" beer may be had in many Of
the leading hotels and cafes.

TO produce the goods.
In the Brennan muss, Baker was
advised to keep away from the clever
Buffalo boy. He stayed away alright.
and Brennan kept jabbing himself to
victory. In the third round of the
Brennan disaster, Baker waded in and
landed a wicked left jolt. which dazed
Brennan. Il was the only clean blow
that Harry landed, and as he failed to
follow up the advantage, he was trim
