LIME-AIDS
We are not running a Fizz Foundry or Soft Drink
Emporium and wasn’t even thinking about a drink
when we tAcked that Sign on top of this For our Lime
Aids are not the variety that’s pushed across the mar-
ble slab by the Medicine Man Ours isn’t a drink at all
it’s just a bunch of useful suggestions we are going to
set out and ask you to soak up You know Lime’s prin-
cipal drty is to help make Mud for the Masons Plas-
terers etc But it has other duties it can perform as
well I t’s what puts the white in Whitewash and makes
it worth using We also know it's a dandy disinfetant
and a few dimes worth scattered around right promt-
cous may save dollars in doctor bills And our friends
who own ’em ssy it's good for cuts on animals It's
useful stuff and so we sell it If you want Lime orany-
thing in our line remember we have the best of every-
