Frank Shively From Berries or Cherries to Jam or Jelly In Fifteen Minutes Do you know the new short-boil Certo method of making jams and jellies, which makes success cer tain? No longer need you have any fears as to the result, for the "set" is perfect every time. And the drudgery is gone, too. For in stead of tedious lengthy cooking, one or two minutes' boiling is enough when Certo is used. This short cooking saves the bright natural color and the fresh flavor of the fruit. Besides it avoids the great w.-.to of boiling away the juice, so that the actual cost of your jams and jellies made the Certo way is about two cents a 'glass less- than by the tiresome old-fashioned method. Greater ease, better jelly, lower cost this is a combination which naturally appeals to women every where. A book of simple recipes for all sorts of delicious jams, jellies and marmalades, comes with each bottle of Certo. Your grocer carries Certo, or you can send 10c (for postage) and get a trial half-size bottle which will make from 6 to 10 glasses of jam or jelly, depending upon the recipe used.
