ABSOLUTELY ALL
TASTE Is TAKEN
FROM CASTOR OIL
Wonderful New Process Robs
Old Reliable Family Remedy
Of DisagYeeeble Taste

The chemists Of Spencer Kellogg &
Sons, Inc, one of the largest manu-
facturers of castor oil in the world,
have perfected remarkable process
by which the taste is absolutely re-
moved from castor OIL In the opin-
ion of physicians and druggists who
are already familiar with Kellogg's
Tasteless Castor Oil, this remarkable
Improvement is a real blessing. It's
the same old-fashioned CASTOR oil
that every physician prescribes. 1t
has the same healing qualities that
have made castor oil household rem
edy But that nauseating taste has
been absolutely eliminated. Today
you can take Kellogg's Tasteless Cas-
tor Oil easily, for it is really tasteless.
Children take it without coaxing or
bribing. Do not accept substitutes,
if you want really tasteless castor
oil. Two sizes, 35c and Csc. At all
druggists. adv

Under the cash bonus plan the cost
