the outside coating and shape of the
pills are imitated and the name-LJodd's
Kidney Pills is imitated. Imitations are
dangerous. The original is safe. D(dd's
Kidney Pitts have a reputation. Imita-

So they trade on the reputation of Dodd's

The Pandora Thermometer
The thermometer VII
the Pandora range oven
means precisely in ac-
curacy to the cook what
the square and compass
mean to the draftsman.
Without the square and
compass the draftsman
would have to work en-
tirely by guess, just as
you do without an ac-
curate and reliable thermometer on your oven.
The Pandora thermometer reduces cooking to
an exact science. You know precisely how much
heat you have and what it will do in a given time.
It is one of the small things which makes the
Pandora so much different and better than common
ranges.
