Purity, “Wear-Ever” utensils are 99 per cent. pure. Thickness. They are made thick enough to prevent denting readily; thick enough to guarantee a lifetime of satisfactory service. Handles.

The handies of “Wear-Ever” utensils are gripped to the utensils by aluminum rivets with large heads. The heads are not sunk into the side of the utensil—the side remains of uniform thickness, strong enough to hold the handle on firmly for years. Finish. Tlie outside is polished. The inside is hardened by an electrical process which makes the metal WEAR-EVER |>. a^ cr : £ m °? tht ; r ’ IT liable to be discolored by AfflA food or water containing ALUMINUM alkali or iron, and more C3C|qdC7 easily cleaned than would h® possible if tlie utenTRADE MARK ails were not so finished.
