Jarvis' California Pear Cider.
This delicious summer beverage is made in California, from very ripe mellow
Uartlett Pears. In the height of the ilpcning bcaton many tons of pears become too
ripe for shipping or canning purposes, they can then be utnllzcd by pressing tk tn Into
elder. The fresh juice is boiled down two gallons intoone, nnd is then strained through
pulverized char coal. This heating, condensing nnd straining completely detlroys fcr
mcntntion.nnd the elder ever afterwards remains sweet nnd good and is n most healthy
and nutritious article for family use.
Knowing there arc many spurious ciders sold In tills market we offer the nbov
explanation with the eminent testimonial of Piof. J. II. Long, Very Respectfully,

THE G. M. JARVIS CO., Gentlemen!
I have made made n chemical examination of the sample of Jan is' Pear Cidc
submitted to 111c a few das ago, and would report these points among others noted,
'1 he liquid is non-alcoholic and has a specific ginvity of 10.65. The total extrac
tive matter amounts to 10.25 per cent., containing only .025 per ccntoi ficc arid. The
tccts show this arid to be malic ncld ns usuallv found in i'rult juices. I find no other
acid or foreign rubstnncc added for color or tlavor.
I believe it, therefore, to consist simply of the juice of the Pear ns represented.
Yours truly,
J. II. LONG, Annhllcol Chemist,
