As pure as fresh butter—smooth and creamy—Duke’s Home-made Mayon naise is a perfect blend of all the good things that go into mayonnaise. It is a real raw egg and oil mayonnaise, abso lutely uncooked. You don’t know how good mayonnaise can be until you have tasted “Duke’s.” ■A i - ~ Dressing nd Relish are both made with Mrs. Duke’s mayon- . '; naise and are equally delicious. SuQh a variety. of tempting sandwiches and salads can be made with them—in just a few minutes time. Try stuffing eggs with the Relish and you’ll like them better that way. A savory cocktail sauce is made in a jiffy with the Russian Dressing. You’ll like both these dainties just as much as the mayonnaise. Duke Mayonnaise Co., Greenville, s. c.
