It’s the very nature of a soda
* cracker to absorb moisture and
foreign odors.
That’s why the ordinary soda cracker
remained so long in obscurity.
The advent of Uneeda Biscuit and the moist-
ure-proof and odor-repelling package
changed all this—for Uneeda Biscuit,
the perfect soda cracker, keeps
select company—its own.
To-day the goodness, the fresh-

German Predicts War.
Berlin, Mar. 15.—Count Ernest
Ventlow, strategical expert predict-
ing a Japanese-Auiertcan war says
Japan will first attempt to seize
the Hawaiian islands and the Philip-
pines. The American naval base in
the Philippines 'is an intolerable
menace to Japan. Supremacy in the
waters of the far east is a life neces-
sity to Japan. Her statesmen, realiz-
ing this, are planning a stroke and
soon, said Count Ventlow. "Japan
must continue to command the Chi-
nese market and cannot do so with-
out naval supremacy in the Pacific.
America will be powerless In the Pa-
cific without advance bases."

the prescription of an eminent phy-

this remedy was an enviable one.
We want you, if you are a sufferer
from catarrh in any form, to give
Rexall Mucu-Tone a thorough trial.
Use It with regularity ahd persist-

you are not satisfied, come back and
tell us, and without question or for-

every cent you paid us. This is cer-

Mr. Eil R. Sheehey and Mr. Milo
Woodrow left this morning to make
their homes in Corsicana, the for-
mer becoming manager anil the lat-
ter secretary-treasurer of tbe Corsi-
cana cotton mill. The mill in Cor-
sicana. one of the most complete
and up-to-date in Texas, is owned
and backed by the leading capital-
ists in that city. That the entire
control and operation of tills val-
uable property should be entrusted
to Messrs. Woodrow and Sheehey is
a deserved compliment to their char-
acter and business experience. These
young men have grown up in Sher-
man where their sterling qualities
of energy and integrity are well
known, and while regretting ex-
ceedingly to lose them from the so-
cial and business circles of the city,
their friends rejoice to see them at-
taining the succes their worth mer-
its.
To the Public.
Knowing as 1 do that the public

“championships" by those in the
profession of wrestling, I wish tc

nie Billlter for the titlo in a straight
match at. I)es Moines la,, on the
1 tth of last, month. This was the
longest bout in the history of the
ga-me. I won the first fall in five
hours and tweuty-eight minutes ana
the second fail in fourteen minutes.
Billlter won 1 the title of cham-
pionship lightweight from George
Bothner and after defending the
title in this class for a timo he grew
into tho welterweight class and
made good until I beat. him.
On the 7th of this month 1 met
Pet Brown at Taylor, Texas, who is
30 pounds heavier than I am and
who has never yet been defeated In
any class. 1 wrestled him one hour
and fifty-five minutes in a stra'ght.
match and 1 am confident 1 could
have beaten him had it not been for
dislocating my hip which suddenly
terminated the match. I am open
to meet any man in tho world of
