He authorized the Liebig Company to use, with the formula, his name, his ‘THe ENTRANCE TO THE LigsiG COMPANY'S Works AT Fray BENTOS. indorsement and his signature (privileges accorded to no one else, although many have traded upon them), on condition that he or his representatives constantlyanalyzed the extract to see that its quality was maintained. Since his death this scrutiny has not been relaxed, and the Liebig Com- pany still have the services and analyses of his representatives—two or three of the best English and Continental chemists. Liebig COMPANY'S Extract of Beef is, therefore, the only sort authorized by Baron Justus von Liebig, and the Liebig Company have facilities for the manufacture of this product which are not approached by any competitor. The Liebig Company are the largest industrial concern in South America, and their great works on the River Uruguay (of whose magnitude the illustrations give some slight idea) are devoted primarily to the manu- facture of Extract of Beef, for which only the best parts of the selected cattle, raised on the great grazing-fields of Uruguay, are used. The other parts of the animal are profitably used for other products, and the Liebig COMPANY'S Extract of Beef can, therefore, be depended upon for quality when other sorts bought in the open market, or made in establish- A Busy Srot. ments where Extract of Beef is simply a by-product, and from inferior parts not useful for other purposes, must always be regarded with sus- picion. The chief use of Extract of Beef among civilized nations (Liebig COMPANY'S is on sale all over the world), and its best use, is in the kitchen, for enriching and flavoring soups, sauces and made dishes. It has long been regarded as indispensable by European cooks, and its use in the home kitchens of the United States has been steadily growing. The Liebig Company have done much in the way of improving the cuisine of this country by advocating the use of Extract of Meat and instructing housewives in its use by the useful cook-books which the Company pub- lish and give away. Its use as beef-tea has been general ever since its discovery, and Liebig COMPANY'S is still unapproached for that purpose, owing to its purity, its freedom from foreign substances, its keeping qualities, and its stimulating effects, Poy ians can advise its use with confidence in cases of weakness and digestive disorders. It can often be retained when all other liquids are rejected. Liebig never intended it to be used alone as a food (he believed that all efforts to produce a fluid quintessential food would fail), but, with alittle bread or some vegetables, it is a most valuable form of nourish- ment. In the Franco-German war every soldier in the successful army was supplied with Liebig COMPANY'S Extract, and Baron Liebig demon- strated that with one pound of it and some bread and vegetables good aa | View or THE Ligsig COMPANY'S Works FKoM THE RIVER. broth can be made for 128 men. Since Liebig’s death, however, progress in analytical processes and new discoveries as to laws of nutrition have proven that Liebig COMPANY'S Extract of Beef, besides having a stimu- lating effect, also contains nutritive elements in large quantities. In order that the American public should be able to distinguish readily the genuine Liebig COMPANY'S Extract of Beef from the many imitations now upon the market, the signature of Baron Liebig is printed in blue across the label of every jar of the genuine. That is a guarantee of quality. If you insist on having the Liebig COMPANY'S and no other you will be satisfied with a pure extract of beef, free from all foreign sub- stances and delicate in flavor, which keeps perfectly everywhere and “ goes SIGNATURE OF THE GREAT CHEMIST, JustUs VON LrEBic. comicbooks.com
