MILK SHOULD BE

BATTER GRADUALLY
This Method Insures a Smooth,
Light, Lumpless Batter
Every cook knows that it la risky
to pour all tho milk at oneo Into the
flour when making waffles, in spite
of vigorous stirring tho batter will
invariably contain lumps.
Coffee roasted in bulk also in
volves risk. Even the most skilled
operator cannot prevent variation
in the l-oast because tho quantity
is too large to handle. As a result,
somo of the colTco berries are over
done and some underdone. Such
variation in tho roast causes varia
tion in flavor.
Realizing this. Hills Bros., in
San Francisco, perfected and pat
ented a process, that roasts every
coffee berry evenly. By automatic
control, only a few pounds at a
time pass through tho roasters in
which heat is also automatically
controlled. When the coffee finally
leaves the roasters. It ia perfectly
uniform In color and roast and
gives li delicious flavor in tho cup
that no other colTco can equal.
No matter when or whero you
buy Hills Bros. Coffee, it is as
fresh and complclo in its exclusive
flavor and aroma as when it came
from the roasters. This is because
Hills Bros. Coffee is packed in
vacuum a process that takes air,
which destroys roffco flavor, from
the cinn. The ordinary air-tight can
docs no P keen coffee fresh. Hills
Bros. Coffee is old A-crywhcrc. Asl

a non-sectarian meeting in the park

three rest or Just sing. It Is an
