Soda crackers are extremely sensitive to moisture.
 Before the advent of Uneeda Biscuit the only persons who ever tasted fresh, crisp soda crackers were the people in the bakeries. Imagine their trip from bakery to your table; exposed to air and moisture kept in grocers'b boxes and finally in a paper bag on the shelf in your pantry. Could they be the same as they were the day they were baked?
 Now that we have Uneeda Biscuit we we perfec ctly baked soda crackers perfectly kept.

JOE MILLER ARRESTED AND is
CHARGED WITH GRAND LAR
cENY-cHARGE WILL PROB
ABLY BE CHANGED TO BURG
LARY-WARRANT TO BE, FILED.

Joe Miller was arrested Saturday
night on the charge of grand larceny
and is now at police headquarters. II
is said that Miller is wanted in Moor
head on the same charge.
This man, Miller, has puzzled the
police authorities of the two cities for
the past two or three weeks. Miller's
hobby is stealing clothing. The police
will probably change the charge to
burglary.
During the past week kitchen en-
ployes Of the Waldorf hotel have miss
ed quantity Of clothing and they re-
ported their loss to the police. This
morning Tharyer Garove Ed Davidson
and Tony Poison, who work at the
Waldorf, came to the police station to
take look at the prisoner. Davidson
identified coat that Miller had on as
his own and to prove that his asser-
ton was correct he opened his over
coat and displayed the trousers that
matched the coat.
The trio reported the loss Of two
overcoats, suit of clothes, shoes and
caps. 1t is thought that States At
torney Fowler win issue warrant.
His case will come up for hearing late
this afternoon.

REALTY men Plan
FOR EXHIBIT BLDG.
MEETING AT REAL ESTATE BOARD
THIS NOON RESULTS lN THE
LAUNCHING OF CIVIC MOVE
MENT THAT WILL BE FAR
REACHING IN ITS BENEFITS.

A movement towards an exhibit
building in this city was launched this
noon at the regular weekly meeting of
the real estate board of the CONNER
cial club, when plans were laid to me-
gotiate with the Northern Pacific rail-
road to erect a permanent exposition
building in the park of the N. p sta
ton wherein products from all coun-
ties traversed by that railroad will be
shown in the gate city of the state
and northwest.
The committee in charge Of this
movement comprises l.. A. jacobson,
chairman, w. j. Lane, E. A. Enge-
bretson, c. A. Wheelock and r. B.
Blakemore. After the transaction of
the regular business and the appoint
ment of the committee, the board adj
journed to meet on call of the presi-
dent, Col. Morton Page.
The proposition is to erect this pro-
jected exhibit building entirely out Of
North Dakota products SO that it will
not only be an ornament to the city
but to the state and show to the tour
lists who pass through Fargo what may
be found in the various counties of
the state which are traversed by the
Northern Pacific railroad.
The idea of placing the building in
the station park as a good one, 1t is
felt, as many of the coast trains car
rying tourists and sightseers, stop
here for ten and twenty minutes and
will allow their passengers an oppor-
tunity to visit the building and view
the different booths. In the building
will be arranged a booth for every
county in the state that is to be repre-
scented in the exhibition.
1t is the idea Of the board to make
this building a permanent one so that
its exhibits may be lasting and con-
tinue throughout the various seasons
Of the year. All of the real estate men
are enthusiastic about the proposition
and win work to see their hopes rea-
liked. Immediate steps will be taken
with the railroad officials in st. Paul
and the matter will be further pre-
scented at the regular meeting of the
commercial club tomorrow night.

low were attracted by the heavy fall
ing of his body to the floor and he was
