Be Your Own Judge 



7M ( > MATTER what the manufacturer Claims, the final decision as to whose goods you buy is based 

 upon the quality of the goods you have already purchased. You know better than any one else 

 in the world whether they are satisfactory or not. Satisfaction, together with service, means repeat 

 orders. 



ROOT'S COMB FOUNDATION is sold to you on this basis. It isn't merely the first order that we 

 want— it's the repeat orders that we are looking for. We are willing that our comb foundation be 

 compared to any other make on the market. Then we want you to be your own judge. 



ROOT'S FOUNDATION is made by the well-known Root-Weed Process— the same as all other good 

 makes of foundation. But — Being the originators of this process, as well as the sole manufac- 

 turers of the machinery which rolls out the foundation, we have the best facilities as well as 

 the most experienced workmen for making this famous brand of goods. 



THE WAX WE USE is selected from large stocks. Only the best-flavored and lightest-colored is used 

 for foundation. Inferior grades are disposed of through the many commercial channels open to us. 



Some Makers Claim, as a talking point, that they use no acid in refining their wax. After repeated 

 tests, and on the advice of the most competent chemists, we have found that nothing will cleanse, 

 purify and sweeten the wax like melting it in boiling water and adding a very small amount — l-18th 

 of one per cent— of sulphuric acid. After the refining process is complete, and the acid washed out 

 (as soap is rinsed out of clothes after being washed) tests show that not a trace of acid remains.
