TEST NO. 1
Low melting point. Easy digestibility!
Into half a glass of lukewarm water
drop a small lump each of Crisco and
any other fat. With a spoon gradually
add hot water until Crisco melts. You
will find that few other fats mel "at
this point. Food authorities say that an
easily digested fat should melt near
body heat 98 25 degrees. Crisco, you
will find, melts even below. this temper
ature. It melts at 97 degrees. (This test
does not necessarily condemn the di
gestibility of the other fat, but it will
aid you to establish Crisco's fine digest
ibility.)

your children health
E:E ALL WELL-POSTED MOTHERS you realize, of course,
that fats are a vital necessity in supplying childhood's energy.
You know that boys and girls would lose their "go" if deprived of
fat in foods.

On the other hand, you doubtless question the digestibility of
many fats. y
Your children need fats! But many fats are considered indigest
ible! This situation causes much motherly anxiety. I
!
Do you wish finally to settle the question: "Will my boys and
girls easily digest foods made with my shortening?" Would you
welcome care-free assurance of easy digestion in the foods your
little ones crave?
- ' i
We suggest, then, that you make, in your own home, test No. 1
explained in detail above.

Digestible Vegetable Shortening

S you enter an otherwise inviting home, how often the odor
of cooking fat gives you intimate news of kitchen activities.
Wouldn't it be gratifying to have the assurance that your own
home will always be sweet, fresh and free from the odor of
cooking fats?
You can have that assurance.
Test No. 2, explained above, will show you how. We suggest
that you make this simple test.
The twofold reward of
a few extra pennies
After you have made the above tests you will under
stand why Crisco is a trifle higher in price than short-.
enings whose digestibility, is very doubtful; than fats
which may carry kitchen news to the front door.
But we find this:
When the health of their, children is concerned;
mothers cease to consider pennies. They would no
more deliberately choose a cheap indigestible shorten
ing than they would deliberately buy inferior milk.
When a housekeeper's reputation is involved she
rightly considers the slight extra cost of Crisco a good
investment in more comfortable hospitality. .
Your grocer doubtless sells Criscdf Practically all
modern grocers do.
