Tempting fresh country eggs and puro
meadow butter are what you crave for,
but often fail to get. It is just as easy
for the grocer to give you them as to
supply the other kind, it is a question
of care in buying.
vThe grocer who values the good will and fut
ure trade of his customer, as we value yours,
selects his butter and eggs with care. We
guarantee every Ggg sold at this store and we
use the pure fresh butter on cur own table
every day.
Nothing can make you surer than that about our best
in eggs and butter.
