THE point to remember when buy

Auaker Oats have the rich Quaker
hvor that you want.
One package of oats without that

The price you pay is the same.
Thus trying" substitute is a folly.
Quaker flavor is the result of Some
10 years milling experience. No other
,ats has it. Quaker milling, too, re-
aims much of the bulk" of oats. And
hat makes laxatives less often needed.
Get Quick Quaker, which cooks in
