For fifty years visitors to Dover, Dela- ware, have been taken through the establish- ment of Richardson & Robbins. It is one of the show places of Dover. There is no closed doors. There is nothing to conceal. Every nook and comer is open to inspection—always has been. The visitor learns here how cleanliness is made a science; how the solid choice parts—and nothing else —of prime chicken, turkey, hari and tongue are selected and tinned. The way these excellent meats are put through the various processes from the savory kettle to the sterilized tin is a lesson in hygienic cookery, and after you see it you won't hesitate to eat any Richardson & Robbins delicacy right from the tin, just as you would eat from any utensil used in its preparation, Clean, wholesome, delicious, these luncheon meats tempt the most delicate appe'tte. They are not the “emergency-dinner,” “‘ unexpected-guest” variety of food, but a staple article for the home larder“the or the yacht, the picnic hamper, the children’s luncheon, the bndge-whist coliation or a cold nack at the tamily sideboard. £ Every meat is tinned in special sanitary can that opens with a key, Every can is sterilized. Ask your dealer for Richardson & Robb’ns’ potted chicken, turkey, ham, tongue, curried fowl, boned chicken and luncheon meats. Insist on the label “R. & R.” It is your sa‘eguard, Ark anybedy from Delaware. Richardson & Robbins DOVER, DELAWARE Established 1856 ae for GRAND RAPIDS FURNITURE.
