Ant Killer or Ant Bait 
For Quick, Permanent Relief from Ants, Roaches, Silverfish 
CLEAN—LETHELIN JELLY is a clean odorless ant bait, packed in handy 
tubes for your convenience. It does not melt or run at ordinary tempera¬ 
tures. 
SCIENTIFIC. The sense of taste is highly developed in ants. They detect 
arsenic, sodium fluoride, and other poisons commonly used in liquid baits, 
powders, etc., and often quit feeding before the colony is destroyed. The 
toxic ingredients in LETHELIN JELLY are tasteless, and are so combined 
with attractive agents, that the ants prefer it to their favorite foods, eating 
voraciously until the last trace of bait is removed, or the colony wiped out. 
Strong, instantaneous poisons, or sprays which kill only the surface ants, 
leave the queen in the nest to lay eggs undisturbed, and fail of their pur¬ 
pose. The gentle toxic action of LETHELIN JELLY gives the workers ample 
time to carry the tempting "food" back to the queen and young—in the 
nest—thus destroying the colony at its source. 
3-ounce tube, 85e; 8-ounce tube, $1.75.

the rose-garden during the growing season. It stimulates plant-growth; 
it is harmless to foliage or blooms; and the fact that it does three separate
