A New Conception
of Syrup Perfection

Syro is unusually good; this is the comment
zoe hear on all sides. And ace appreciate this
because more than three gears of unti,ing
effort hare been put into the perfection of it.
We call it the perfect table syrup, but lit
orally speaking, no product can be perfect,
for perfection signifies the end of things;
and that is not our thought. Our idea is that
Spo is perfect By comparison, for it is rad
icdlly different to all other syrups, being
made as it is from rich malt and wholesome
rice. 1t is neither doctorcd nor tlavored-
its flaror is natural; and nature is seldom
ercelled. Our thought of Syro as the perfect
table syrup is also the thought of those fen
privileged thousands aOho haze so far been
able to obtain it. II you are DESTROYS of
making the acquaintance of syrup that acM
discount all your former conceptions of syrup
goodness, Syro is the syrup to buy.
