How carefully would you bake it? F YOU had to make your own bread, you would select the ingredients that you know are the purest. And you would use all your skill and the utmost care in the mixing and baking. This point of view prevails in the making of Rice’s rich loaf. Every loaf of this bread, every day, must be worthy which it is made. of the tables for ERE are the ingredients that malfe it rich: Gold Medal Flour—milled from firm Northern wheat —renowned the world over; Domino sugar—ultra-refined from Southern cane—the standard of excellence; Diamond Crystal Salt—absolutely pure; Fleischmann’s Yeast—fresh, living, care- fully cultivated, famous for its health-giv- ing properties. Twice a day, a corps of specially-trained bakers mix and bake ‘these fine ingredients into beautiful, fine-grained, satisfying loaves. Every process is scientifically controlled. Even the finished loaves must pass tests for flavor, richness, and uniformity. * * * IN THE BEST SENSE, Rice’s is bread for your own home. Order this unusual loaf from your grocer today. Whether you market early in the morning or late in the afternoon, you get delicious, newly baked bread. D. the United States Government $100,-] C., TUESDAY, AMUSEMENTS. ATIONAL . .
