Notwithstanding the cold weather,
and are just as much prepared now
to deliver the best grade of all kinds

everybody to use these products

and just as nutritious as meat, but
because in doing so you help con-
serve the meat supply and in doing
so cooperate with the government.

can readily be taken off or put on.

of artificial limbs.
All the latest and most modern

working along these same lines for
the past thirty years. Satisfaction is

coffee every day at twenty cents a
