MONTREAL.—There’s a wealth of flavor for
you, come the winter months, in the jams and
jellies you do down now. Especially if you use
CERTO FRUIT PECTIN 1 With Certo, more of
the true flavor of the fruit is retained—because
you boil only one minute. And think of this—you
get up to 50% more jam or jelly from the same
amount of fruit! I find I save 1/3 the time of the
former Jong boil method by jamming and jellying
tne certo way. And results are always so sure...I simply follow the
recipes m the booklet, under the label of each bottle of Certo. So*—
now that summer fruits are in lush abundance, plan on doing down lots
and lots of your favorites, the quick Certo way.

The fall fair has recognized it

here, and in he book, will be

as he or she wishes but only one

Why can’t caution be learned
at home when children are
small? There’s really no reason
if the method of application is
strong enough to make a lasting
impression on the child. What
