Why Libby's Milk

The milk you get in
Libby cans at your

nothing else.
1t comes from sleek,

the finest dairy sections
of the country.
Libby adds nothing
TO it and takes out
nothing but more than
half the water. It is put
into sterilized cans and
shipped-at half fare
because the weight of
the evaporated water

Because so much wa

OF The Squaw Man as a one act

very fortunately he refused Il.
"A little while after that, I was
