Quaker Oats Cooks in 3 to & minutes The quickest cooking oats in the werld Now your grocer has Quaker Oats in two styles. One the kind you have always known—the other Ouice Quaker. ick Quaker cooks in from 3 to 5 minutes. And it cooks to perfec- tion. So it is almost like a ready- cooked dish. No other oat flakes on the market cook anywhere near so quickly. The two styles are identical in geality, and flavor. Both are flaked rom the finest grains only—just the rich, plump, flavory oats. A bushel of choice oats yields but ten pounds of these delicious flakes, But in Quick Quaker the oats are cut before flaking. They are rolled very thin and pac. cooked. So the flakes are smaller and thinner—that is all. And those small, thin flakes cook quickly. Ask for Quick Quaker if you want this style. Your grocer has both. But always get Quaker- Oats for their delightful flavor, OF FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 1923. and 17 other passengers drowned whe na motor boat in which they were riding sank in a storm last Wednesday, delayed ai- vices declared.
