WHY
"1892"PureSpun Aluminum
Kitchen Ware
Is Better Than Atfate or Enamel
Because it is sanitary and saves your
money, time and health. The genuine
spun aluminum ware, stamped with the
Maltese Cross, will outlast any other cook-
ing utensils and is guaranteed by the
makers for twenty-five years.
It is pure, wholesome and hygienic—no
danger of metal poisoning cannot chip
into the food, because pure SPUN Alumi-
num expands with the heat and will not
crack, scale or peel like the old style ware.
Enamel ware is iron coated with col-
ored glass. Heat causes the glass to chip
off into the food in minute particles, which,
taken into the stomach, is apt to cause
serious troubles, including cancer, accord-
ing to some medical authorities.
"1892" Pure Spun Aluminum Ware is
made from solid Aluminum throughout—no
coating of glass—and expands uniformly
under heat. It cannot crack, scale, peel
like the out of date enameled utensils; it
does away with all possible danger from
this source.
You owe it to yourself, and to every
member of the household, to give this new
and better kitchen ware a practical test.
If it fails to do what is chimed for it. you
get your money back without a quibble or
a cross word.
At your dealers.
