why is the SOFA
cracker to-day such
a universal food?
People ate soda
crackers in the old
days, it is true-but
they bought them
from a barrel or box
and took them home
in a paper bag, their
crispness and flavor
all gone.
To-day there is a.
soda cracker which
is the recognized
staple Uneeda
Biscuit.
Uneeda Biscuit are
the most nutritious
food made from

be eaten every day

ties were sold. The list of delinquents
was exceptionally small and about

Muuroe asserted that with little
time he could have collected every
cent of the delinquent taxes without
the necessity for sale. All of the
business in connection with the sale
was over before eleven o'clock.

Much is said OF the repeal OF this
statute and of constructive legislation
intended to accomplish the purpose
and blaze clear path for honest mer.
chants aud business men to follow. II
may be that such plan will be

have produced nothing but glittering

Effectiveness of Decree.

I venture to say that not In the his
tory OF American law has a decree
more effective for such a purpose
been entered by a court than that
against the Tobacco trust. As Circuit
Fudge Noyes said IN his Judgment ap-
proving the decree: 49,. .'.,...... "
"Tbe extent to which it has been
necessary to tear apart this ombina-
ton and force It into new forms with
the attendant burdens ought to dem
onstrate that the federal antitrust
statute is a drastic statute which ac
complishes effective results; which so
long as it stands on the statute books
must be obeyed, and which cannot
be disabeyed without incurring far
reaching penalties, And, on the 9TH
er hand, the successful reconstruction
Of this organization should teach that
the effect of enforcing this statute Is
not to destroy, but to reconstruct; not
to demolish but 70 re-create In ac-
cordance with the, conditions which
the congress has declared shall exist
