I may have just solved the mystery of applied lips maple syrup bottle. In a 1924 dictionary the word adulterate means to debase or corrupt by mixture. So, what their trying to say on the bottle is that if it's not pure maple syrup they will give you your money back. They must not have been able to use the word adulterate in the sentence so they replaced it with a word that means something entirely different. cool bottle!

Thanks for the information Jamus.I think they basically were just stressing it was pure with no additives.But I still think Spencer had something to do with it.[]Thanks again,Doug

Thanks Doug! Now if I can only find a St. Louis sauce bottle like yours!! I really like that one as both of my parents are from Missouri, and I was born there. Also, any bottle with an iron pontil, that still has a lot of iron intact, appeals to me.
You have some really great food bottles and I loved seeing the pictures from your collection.
