We are not manufacturing chemists; we are not makers of pharmaceuticals.

For ten years we have concentrated all our scientific energies on one object, the bacillus Bulgaricus.

For ten years; every day and all day long.

For ten years we have worked under the direct scientific guidance and control of Professor Metchnikoff.

For ten years we have been held directly responsible to Professor Metchnikoff, himself, for the scientific integrity and excellence of our products.

For the next ten years and forever we will hold ourselves responsible to his memory. We can be compared to our microscopes. Their field of vision is small, but they throw a powerful light upon it.

If you want to deliver that which is nearest to scientific perfection in bacillus Bulgaricus Products, handle the Metchnikoff Products of the

"Home?' Why?"

There are no restrictions as to the kind of fountain that may be purchased on this advance-dating proposition; a new outfit may be selected from the company's large stock, or a special fountain will be built to order.
