The next time you step into your favorite liquor store to make a purchase, don't be mislead on blended whiskeys that read 209 old straight whiskey and 809, neutral spir- its because the 80% is nothing more than alcohol, which is not aged. For the same price you can buy a whiskey such as OLD LOG CABIN, a 93 proof straight bourbon of the light body type, and it has been aged in the oak barrels for two years before it is bottled. If you prefer blended whis- kys, try one that's all whiskey such as PAUL JONES or OLD OSCAR PEPPER which are all whiskey, every drop of which is aged. You don't get the best value for your money when you buy "Neutral Spirits,” so why not buy all whiskey. ’aid Ady. FRESH Fruits and Vegetables ——ALWAYS!
