THE ICE BILL OR THE DOCTORS' BILL?
In homes where Ice is used regu- larly, all the year round, you'll find the doctor doesn't have to call very often.
The great majority of our ailments can be traced to the food we eat, and the best guarantee of pure, wholesome food is a refrigerator always well filled with Ice. Food doesn't have to be actually spoiled to cause ill-health. Chil- dren, especially, cannot be pro- -perly nourished by food that has become stale, or lost much of its real food value,
Arte all perishable food begins to deteriorate rapidly when the tem- perature gets to 50 degrees or
warmer.
For your health's sake, keep your refrigerator well filled with ice all the year round.
