sweet, healthful, digestible
Cottolene
All pastry and pie crust
made with Cottolene is war
ranted anti-dyspeptic, and
may safely be eaten by the
most delicate persons.
4 REASONS
1st Cottolene is the purest
of all cooking lats, and re
commended by all expe
rienced cooks and bakers.
2d. Cottolene is the healthi
est 'of all cooking fats, and
reconlmended by all emi
nent physicians.
$d. Cottolene costs no'
moreperpound than lard, -and
much less than but
ter, and is better than
1 either for ail cooking.
4&. One pound of Cotto
lene is equal in shorten
fngto two pounds of lard
orbutter,so half the mon
ey'is saved.
