Two of these nurses have reached Saloniki with nothing but the clothes they had on. Everything else was lost. The two youns women had tramped for seven days, making twenty-four miles in one day. Roads were covered with mud the women had to spend the night in barns and earthen hovels. Some of the refugees and prisoners were so hungry, said the nurses, that they ate the bark of trees.

SERV.US MINCE MEAT Package condensed mince meat is made up today of the best quality of dried fruit and other items which can be found, all of which are found in the United States with the exception of spices and currants. The study of packing condensed mince meat has ex- tended over a period of 100 years and today is as near its perfection as we can possibly conceive. The sanitation in the factories in which it is packed is beyond reproach as the competition today in these lines necessitates the | guarding of the most minute detail of the business. The apples used are of the best grade of New York State, where in our opinion is grown the best flavored apple known. The raisins used are of the best quality seeded variety. No expense is con- sidered in procurring the very highest grade of spices, d sugar, as we all is alwa sugar, the different presenting the diffes vors or different gr: quired for different purposes. Every particle of fruit or gny other article used in the manufacture of mince meat is thoroughly cleaned and hand-picked by people trained to know what should and should not be used and in this manner the article comes to the house- wife cleaner by far than she could possibly take the same articles in her own kitchen, resardless of how clean it may be, and make up the filler for her mince pie. The old idea of dirt being prevalent in quantity is today disputed by the greatest authorities on food products. The meat used in mince meat is of the choicest and to- day the same corn-beef which you and I would use on our table is what is being used in Serv-us Mince Meat. There are very few pies made which can be used handily by the house- wife as mince meat for all it requires is a little water and being heated for ten minutes and it is ready for the crust and then the table and she may without fear of loss carry three or four packages of mince meat in her pantry, having it ready at any time for the chance occurrence of unexpect- ed company aid it will be a good dessert free from dirt. It is our thorough bellef that a mince meat pie made from condensed mince meat is about as cheap a dessert as can be prepared and yet as good. For many years mince meat was considered a winter dish. Each year for the K ten our factory has had to increase its capacity during the summer months until today it runs every day of the year with a regular force of helpers. ‘We ship goods to every part of the country the entire year. This of course means a great increase in the use of these goods over when mince meat was eaten only in the winter months which means an in- creased sale over the former winter ‘consumption. THE L. A.
