You read and hear similar things every day. When people feel about a soft drink that way it’s got something special. Coca-Cola has. A taste all its own. A drink that adds refreshment to thirst-quenching. Truly, the only thing like CocaCola is Coca-Cola, itself . . . the trade-marked product of The Coca-Cola Company. A Coke and a hot dog!
