IYSTERY SOLVED H1 ,44l 4r Ji TO) BarringtoriHall Is just pure Mocha and Java prepared in a new way. The cof fee berry is cut up (not ground) by knives of almost razor sharp ness into small uniform particles. Thus it is not crushed, as by the old method of grinding, ana the little oil cells remain unbroken. The essential oil (food product) cannot evaporate and is preserved indefinitely. This is one reason why a pound of Barrington Hall will make IS to 20 cups more of full strength coffee than will any coffee ground the old way; why it excels all other coffee in flavor and why it.. will keep perfectly until used. But the main thing about Barr intrton Hall Coffee is that it can be used without ill effect by those who find ordinary coffee injures them, because the yellow tannin-bearing- skin and dust (the only injurious properties of coffee) are removed by the "steel-cut" pro cess. A delicious coffee not a tasteless substitute. , Price, per pound, 40c POUND A. V. ALLEN Sole Agents MYSTERY CLEARED.
