= = The Backbone of a Mighty Nation is good food—food for brain, food for brawn, food that is strengthening, that gives..energy and courage. Without a proper appreciation of this great fundamental truth no nation can mse to greatness. As an article of food, soda crackers are being used more and more every day, as is attested by the sale of nearly 400,000,000 packages of Uneeda Biscuit, which have come to be recog- nized as the most perfect soda cracker the world has ever known. And so Uneeda Biscult will soon be on every table at every meal, giving life, health and strength to the American people, thus in very truth becoming the backbone of the nation. lg. — na NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY BOYS BUILT | The True Sportsman, “WIRELESS” PLANT.

It is {able of all game destroyers is, o! | couree, the kind of game butcher who simply kills for the record of slaughter, who leaves deer and ducks and prairie chickens to rot after he has slain them. Such a man ifs wholly obnoxious; and, indeed, so is any man who shoots for the quantity of game killed. To my mind this is one unfortunate feature of what is otherwise the admirably sportsman- like English spirit of these matters. The custom of shooting great bags of deer, grouse, quail and pheasants, the keen rivalry in making such bags and their publication in sportemen’s journals are symptoms of a spirit which is most unhealthy from every standpoint. It is to be earnestly hoped that every American hunting or fishing club will strive to inculcate among its own members and in the minds of the general public thatany- thing like an excessive bag, any de struction for the sake of making a record, is to be severely reprobated.”’ leas telegraph station built by three boys has intercepted wireless mes sages trausmitted by thegovernment and Albert Gleaves, of the United | States naval torpedo station, began | an investigation to learn who it was that was both sending and receiving the wireless messages.
