The bread must be white, flaky and palatable. [t must have taste. The butter must be not only good, but fine. The cof- fee and tea must be all that can be desired. If any of these items are lack- ing in quality the pleasure of eating is marred. But should they be all of medium grade then the feast is a failure. Moral—Buy your bread, but- ter, tea and coffee of us. It has been said by a wise sage that the pleasure of eating is the high- est enjoyment of the great majority of the human race, and this thought was in mind when buying and advertising this line of goods.

When, just before the Crimean war, England was hesitating whether she should attack Russia, the Barbadiuns sent this message to the cabinet: “Go ahead. Don't be afraid. Barba- dos is behind you.” . King George was offered an asylum by “little England” when Napoleon Bonaparle proposed to invade England. “If you were driven from England,” the Barbadians wrote, “come here. You will be safe with us to protect you.” When Bugland was suffering her worst reverses iu South Africa the Barbadians were not worried. They konew that if matters really reached a crisis “Barbados would go in and finish the business.” as one of their newspa- pers seriously put it. MUSIC BATHS.
