V Cottolene thenewshortening-i-ihe;
drily pure and healthful and perfectly
digestible frying and shortening mate
rial in tbe market is now to be bad at
all first-class grocers throughout the
United States and Canada.
" ' In using Cottolene for shortening,
it 19 of the greatest importance to use
only about one-half or two-thirds as
much as would be used of lard. This
is essential to success in the cooking, .
as well as an important feature for
one's pocket book.
Cottolene, like all other good things,
has found several imitators, all of very
: inferior quality, and sure to cause dis
satisfaction. To be sure of getting the
genuine Cottolene, the best way to
buy it is in the tiu pails bearing the
name and Trade-Mark.
