And flavor, above | all things, is needed to win a child’s | appetite. | Quaker Oats has a unique flavor; a rich and toasty flavor you'll find | in no other brand. That is why mil- lions will accept no other kind. Quaker milling, too, retains much of the “bulk” of oats—which makes | laxatives less often needed. Protein, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamines | and this “bulk” make Quaker Oats | an excellent food balance. Today, get Quick Quaker (cooks | in 8 to 5 minutes), or regular Quaker Oats as you have always known them. Grocers have both kinds. « Quaker Oats ; Sell Regularly for 49c—Tuesday THICK.
