It is conceded by the highest authorities that the
soda cracker contains the life-giving elements of wheat
in the best proportions.
This being so, then U need a Biscuit must at
once take first place as the food of the world —a soda
cracker, but such a soda cracker! Made by exact
science in sunny bakeries so light, bright and clean, that
they are a revelation. The flour is tested; the purity
of the water is absolutely assured; the very air is
filtered, —why even the temperature and moisture of
the atmosphere is accurately regulated. The sponge
is kneaded by polished paddles, not by hand. Indeed,
Uneeds Biscuit are only touched once, and then
by a pretty girl, from the time the flour leaves the bag
until the beautiful package is placed on your table.
You ask why all this work, all this care in the
making of a soda cracker? Because the soda cracker
is the best of all food and U needs Biscuit is the
most wonderful of all soda crackers. And with all
of it the price is only a package.
