i tt ORKiHTALPaoDurTiON. Aaiong other thing
xelaslvely the property of tbe American Ess are
elaoas, cranberrlea and crackers. Mr. Ball may brag
f his Absroethy biscuits and his Banbuiy cakes, the
.Frenchman mayco h's lengthen biscuit and bans,
trat, as aa accompaniment to a lunch, a plonlo or a
refreshment table, tbtre is nothing In the whole
range of the art of baking that can light a blgser
Candle than the American "cracker."
Time was that Bat ton and Albany challenged the
world to equal the product of their bakeries. Uj to
three years ago tbe challenge was nnanswered. At
tbe present wrKinf Fearcs's Philadelphia crackers
are sold net only by all the leading grocers of the
Hob." but by those or ail the prluc'pal cities In the
Union. Mr. Pearoe took a pbllo.tophlcsl view of the
cracker subject, and made np bis mind to crack
every pretension that set op superiority over Phila
delphia la the production of crack crackers. Els first
Step was to get up a bakery on philosophical prlncl.
pies. To do tbls he spared neither expanse nor
trouble His next step was to secure tbe necessary
and constant supply of the particular floor that be
required. What Mr. Pearee doern't know abint the
farina of the various oareala Isn't worth gelng to
i chool again to learn. Orange county dairies supply
all the batter, and ha la now supplying tbe market
with an anlole of snch excellence that Pearce's
Philadelphia crackers are advertised as a leading
article In ail the cities of the South and West, as they
are to the eastward.
Mr. Pearce Is one of that class of cltlsfns who don't
do things by halves. Be gets up butter crackers'
soda crack era, wine crackers, mlik crackers, picnic
and biscuits ol appearance and taste so decidedly In
Tltlng that people partake of other things purely for
the sake of the crackers that accompany them. They
are packed in neat tin boxes, and will keep, provld
1nc they ain't oa'en, or In any climate where the boys
, don't break open the packages. People who believe
In tbe adraacemeatof home Industry, when they
ask belr grocer for Pearce's crackers w 111 have the
additional satisfaction of eating an article that can.
not be excelled la any quarter of the universe. We
have witnessed the process of miking these things.
It t. Pearce is as neat aa an old maid, and his bakery
would do c e tit, in point of sweetneis, to any parlor
Ja Amstetdam. Bis corps o' operatives, In their
snow-white caps and uniforms, take to water like
Mohammedans.
We have an lmmente opinion, alter oar visit to
Mr. Pea-Cb's (stahllshrueat, of the Immacalate
purity of the process of making his crackers. Hit
crackers csn talk for themselves. Philadelphia
