Well, Serv-us Macaroni has a distinction something like that. It is the food with which you can reduce the cost of living and yet strange to say it has as much nourishment and nutrition as the most expensive food—Beef Steak. It is a great muscle builder, and ideal health food. One pound of Serv-Us Macaroni will go just as far in giving a man strength as a pound of meat and it costs lass than 3 as much. - { It bas 5o waste matter—no bomes and gristle which you can’t eat but must pay for. Meat is i water in com- position. Serv-Us Macaroni is 3 solid nourishment. Besides Serv-Us Macaroni is so easily prepared. It takes one to two hours to boil meat—but only 20 minutes to prepare Serv-Us Macaroni in a number of delicious ways. You can enjoy it in soups and stews. It is very tasty with fruit or tomatoes—and it is especially delicious pre- 2 pared like a potpie with grated cheese and tomatoes.
