Maybe you only had a pint or a part of a pint to throw away— yet it doesn’t take long for these to amount to sev- éral dollars. It’s foolish to go on letting the milk and grocel:y bills climb, when a sanitary, easy-to-clean Leonard will keep your good food perfectly clean, pure, sweet, from one meal to the next. . Leonards, too, with the wonderful one-piece seamless porcelain iinings, are the least expensive you can buy.
