Dear Sir :
It is probable that this will be
the last letter and' statement you
will receive this year. I take
pleasure in handing to you state
ment of the business done by the
agents for 11 months of the year
1905. It has been a very satisfac
tory and profitable year through
out. While our losses have been
extremely heavy during the latter
half of the year , yet I feel that we
have not had any more than our
share , and we have no complaint
to make. We have adjusted and
paid o > : r losses promptly. Prac
tically every loss of which we have
had notice is adjusted and paid in
full. This should be a source oi
great congratulation to every ag
ent of the company , because it is
the promptness and fairness oi
the company that bears out your
recommendation and makes you
friends. No one realizes more
than the agents that represent a
company that does not fulfill its
- i
pledges , is what causes them
trouble with their neighbors. * * *
Very truly yours ,

A NOBLE DEED.
Once in Iowa there was a building
sailed the Drill Factory. One d ay
it was burning down and there were
fifteen or twenty men that worked
there that did not know it was burn
ing.
ing.One
One of the young men went and
told all the hands. The owner of
she building was not there and the
Dne that told the hands risked his
life and went in to get all the use-
; ul papers and account books that
ihe man that owned thebuilding
fvould want.
There was another man that went
; vith him and helped him some.
rhis man went out of the building
just avlittle before he did and they
Doth got out alive and he got the
papers and account books out too.
The building fell in about five or
six minutes after the last man got
DUt.

A NOBLE DEED.
t
One summer afternoon , in the
pear of 1898 a party of boys went
lown the creek to take a swim. It
ivas a warm day and the boys were
enjoying themselves , when three
nen came down to have a swim too.
They stood on the bank watching
ihe boys playing in the water when
3ne boy bolder than the others
swam out into the deeper water and
svas showing off how good he could
swim. The reason of his good
swimming was that he had a life
preserver on.
He hadn't baen out very long
when the string which were holding
the life preserver in place broke
and it slipped down to his feet. As
he could not swim without it in
place his head went down and his
feet stayed on top of the water.
His playmates could not rescue
him , because they could not swim.
One of the men hurriedly took off
his coat and shoes. He then jump
ed into the water , and swam out and
carried him to the shore , where he
soon came to.

A Food
to Work On
Work ! Work ! ! Work ! ! !
Lots of energy is needed to keep up the pace. In
the struggle , the man with the strong body and clear
brain wins out every time.
The man of to-day needs something more than
mere food ; he needs a food that makes energy a food
to work on ,
Although some people may not realize it , yet it is
a fact , proved and established beyond doubt , that soda
crackers and this means Ufieeda Biscuit are
richer in muscle and ht-making elements and have a
much higher per cent , of tissue-building properties
than any other article of food made from flour.
That this is becoming known more and more every
day is attested by the sale of nearly 400,000,000 pack
ages of Uneedd BiSCUit , the finest soda cracker
ever baked. An energy-giving food of surpassing
value sold in a package which brings it to you with
all the original flavor and nutriment perfectly pre
served. Truly the food to Ivork on.
Whoever you are whatever you are wherever
you work U need a Biscuit.
