Almost every sentence in the book is something he has learned by experience. Probably it will take until you are sixty years of age to know as much as, or half as much, or a tenth as much as Mr. Bok, but if you should know only a tenth as much it will be well worth while. in Calvert St., Md the following signs yellow for cau- tion, red for danger and green for clear.

Be comforted by the fact that it will not take away their true meal-time appetites and yet relieves the gnaw—and they do suffer you know. This new Sunshine Soda Cracker supplies them with the energy that they need toddling or romping. It is fuel that their little speed motors require. Made in a new way by the Full Grain Process If baking isn’t an art, fallen cakes and heavenly pie crust couldn’t come from the same cook. Uni- formity is the key to all successful baking. You get the process right, and then hold it, no matter what the conditions are. The “how’’ of this is the real difficulty. In baking the new Sunshine Soda Cracker, it means: : Special temperatures strictly held, no matter what the weather; A brand new way of working the dough so that it can’t possibly toughen; A different method of cutting the biscuit; Most careful watchfulness at the ovens; Just the right percentage of gluten in the wheat. The outcome of this process is a new kind of soda cracker, full flavored, rich, and of fine texture. - Genuine Reed Furniture There is nothing more inviting with which to furnish the home and the porch for the out-of-doors season than Reed—and nothing that will give bet- ter service. mflu(flauor of) M‘;‘}u cracker oot m;«h n;-'r”: pe (patented ). notched sides form holes in tha sheet of crackers as they bake.
