Mr. S. F. Carroll,
Leavenworth, Kan. Dear Sir:
Your name has been sent us by our representative as being a prominent merchant in your section; and we believe you are in
25 the habit of always carrying some "St. Charles Evaporated Cream" in stock. If this is the case we want to thank you for your assistance
50 in marketing our product, and to ask you to kindly instruct your clerks to call your customers' attention to this excellent article.
The old fashioned
75 sweetened milk is fast dropping behind. Once customers try our " Unsweetened " you cannot get them to go back to buying sugar at 18 to 21c100 a pound - for all sweetened milks consist of not less than 40 per cent sugar, while our can contains nothing but pure milk reduced
125 to a consistency of rich cream by evaporation.
We preserve solely by the scientific application of heat, perfectly sterilizing our cream so that it will
150 keep indefinitely until opened, and using nothing but the richest milk from selected cows, carefully fed under our supervision on model farms in the best
175 dairy section in the world; the result is " Absolute Purity.''
By recommending St. Charles Cream to your customers you are doing them a real service.200 For infants it is acknowledged by leading physicians to be the best food obtainable, while for all cooking purposes it is unsurpassed, especially when used
225 in coffee, cocoa, tea, or in making ice-cream.
It gives you a good profit and you will never have any trouble with it, as
250 once sold it stays sold. We guarantee every can absolutely. If your regular jobber should not have any on hand, please drop us a line
275 and we will see that you are supplied.
We also beg to call your attention to the enclosed circular showing a cut of a handsome
300 bronze clock we are distributing among our patrons.
Yours truly, (310)
