    DescriptionAd in a magazine for Jell-o. There is a pencil drawing at the top of the page of a woman serving jell-o to a "French Chef." He has the same dessert in front of him. The chef says, "Zare! Can anybody beat zat?" She responds, "Well, perhaps not 'beat it' but what do you say to this?" The ad is saying that any woman, even one who can't cook, can make Jell-o. There is a drawing of a little girl standing on top of a box of jell-o.
