Placed end to end, these barrels would reach from New York to Chicago a distance of nine hundred miles. and then, foc good measure, stretch sev- enty miles beyond
 Of coursel Certainly! Uneeda Biscuitil What everybody is eating must be good It requires seven thousand barrels of flour day to supply the demand for bis sut, crackers and warers made by the National Biscuit Company. Nearly three hundred million packages of Uneeda Biscuit have been enjoyed and the demand grows apace. Everywhere the bill of fare says Uneeda Biscuit.
 Lest you forget we say it yet-uneeda Biscuit.
 The women who buys crackers in 2 paper bag still uses a flint to light the fire Both belong to the same period. .'Uneeda Bscuit," said a jester to the king "Gadzooks," quoth the king, "its no jest to make a man hungry"

 To bake the biscuit, crackers and wafers of the National Bscut Company last year required S6, 565 tons of coal. Quality and purity are two words thnt explain the success of the products of the National Biscuit Company. The National Biscuit Company has built up it's enormous business entirely upon merit-the best goods baked in the best manner.

Some Reasons Why Mr.. darri:

A short statement Of the work of the
Commission during the term Just served
by Mr.. Garris may be of interest tosthe
people, as we'll as to the candidacy of
Mr.. Garris himself in the. approaching
primary. Mr.. Garris takes the position
that the railroads and the people
are bound to exist together for all ltime
to come, and that they should live in
friendship, if possible. 1t is not right
that honest claims of either against the
other should have to be sued for and
collected at great expense to both;
therefore, the commission can do no
the people and the railroads closer to.
gether. Reasonable rates only should
be allowed by the Commission or de-
sired by the railroads. The average of
South Carolina rates Are now below the
average of the rates throughout the
South and especial care has been given
by the Commission to the agricultural
and manufacturing interests of the
State. 0n| recently has all cotton
manufactures beed2reduced materially.

Obedience Of a Great Man.

Sir Henry Havelock attributed
much of his life TO the training which
he received from his father and moth.
er On one occasion bis father told
his son TO meet him on London bridge
at noon, but be forgot all about the
appointment, and when he got home
in the evening was surprised to find
the lad not there.
Where is Henry ?" be asked Of
his wife.
She replied that the boy had gone
to meet his father early in the day
and had not been back yet
Why, said the father, "he must
be waiting for me on London bridge

o'c ock told him to wait for me if
was not there at that hour, but
forgot all about it.
1t was now late in the evening.
The father at once put his overcoat on
to 20 in search of the lad He lived
long way from London and it was
past midnight when he reached the
bridge.
Sure enough, there stood the brave
boy shiveriug with the cold. He
would not move away, although cold
aud tired, because bis fathers last
words on parting had been. wait
