It is one thing to make soda
crackers that are occasionally
good.
It is quite another thing to
make them so that they are
always better than all other
soda crackers, always of I'M
Uarying goodness.
The name da"-stamped on
every biscuit means that if million
packages of Uneeda Biscuit were
placed before you, you could choose
any one of them, confident that every
soda cracker in that package would
be as good as the best Uneeda Biscuit
ever baked. Five cents.

Notwithstanding all the modern
inventions for heating l tell you
there is nothing so full of geniality
and sociability as the old-fashione1
country fire place. The neighbors
were to come IN for a winter even
ing of sociability. In the middle
of the afternoon, in the best room
in the house, some one brought in a
great back log, with great strain
and put it down on the back OF the
hearth. Then the lighter wood was
put on armful after armful. Then
a shovel of Goals was taken from
another room and put under the
dry pile, and the kindling began
and the cracking, and it rose until
it became a roaring flame which
filled all the room with geniality
and was reflected from the family
pictures on the wall. Then the
neighbors came in two by two.
They sat down, their faces to the
fire, which ever and anon was stir
red with tongs and readjusted on
the andirons and there were such
times of rustic repartee and story
telling and mirth as the black stove
and blind register never dreamed of
meanwhile the table was being
spread, and so fair was the cloth
and so clean was the cutlery they
glisten and glisten in our mind to-
day. And then athe best luxury of
orchards and farm yard Was roast
ed and prepared for the table to
meet the appetites sharpened by
the cold ride. We heartily wish for
a return of the old fire place, Our
readers, whose locks have whitened
by the frosts OF many winters,
know that this pen picture of the
fire place is true to life, LaBelle
Star.

Don't be afraid to do your duty
because some one ridicules or op-
poses you. A man who has opin.
ions Of his own and the courage to
advocate them will be sure to have
opposition in this world because he
runs contrary to other peoples opin-
ions; but just keep right ahead, if
your cause is right and your con-
science clear. Don't bother yourself
about what people say; life is too
short for that. Some will abuse
you through envy, others for the
want of principle, and some because
they honestly differ from you; but
if you keep right ON openly, man
fully and intelligentIy and with
proper dignity and character, hon
esty of purpoae and self-respect
those who differ from you will re-
spect your opinions. Elk.

ing the saioe mistake that israel made.
According to Jesus Interpretation of
the Law. theft could he committed in
the heart by coveting. by stealing the
business or reputation Of another. Sim
ilarly, adultery might be committed
without overt act; and hatred is murder.
Increase of knowledge has brought
increased responsibility. But human
selflshness has kept pace. The thiev.
fish spirit abounds. The civilized world
should awaken its conscience to the
Golden Rule-the Law Of Messiah's
coming Kingdom.
