This pure cider la served on steamers on the American line, and at the Waldorf-As toria and leading family grocers in New Yoik city. Paulding s Pippin cider Is made from the pure Juice ot hand picked apples from his own mill on the premises. It Is abso lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer vescence is natural, and we guarantee i to be the choicest cider in the world. Leading physicians In New York and Brooklyn recommend this cider to their patients Its perfect purity Is guaranteed. In Paulding's Pippin cider, only Long Is land Newton’s Pippins ate used. The ap ples are left on the trees until late in Oc tober when they are hand picked and placed In a dry room to ripen. Paulding says "the appl-s are thorough ly crushed in his own mill and the Juice pressed out and run into sweet clean casks” The difference between crushing and grinding apples is very great. You will know the difference between crushed app es and ground apples if you take some stems and chew them, you will find that bitter taste which Is not with Paulding’s crushed apples.
