Everybody eats crackers, and consequently anything relating to tlielr manufacture and sale Is o( general in*erest. There was a ttme in the history of the business when erackers were all about the same. One brand was Just about as good aA auot her, and none a tempta tion to a delicate stomach- That time has passed. It was a good many years ago. The crackers of the prevent da} and generation are as different as rtav Irom night. Tuere ate good crackers and bad crackers; IresU crackers and stale crackers, and of the whole lot, stale crackers are the worst. 'lhere are some grocers in Hie eountry who sell stale, unpalatable i rackers because they can get them cheap ami make a big profit on them. They think tl elr customers don't know the dlflercnee, aud by and by when their crack er trade is ail gone and tie y don't sell a box In a week, I hey look surprised and say : "Funny how people's tastes change. They don't care lor crackers any more." IJon't they, though? People don't care for stale, unwholesome crackers, that's true, but they do care for a craeker that Is pure and fresh. and altogether delightful as an arttcle ot food. The Marvin factory, on Liberty street. Pittsburg, is scarcely able to nil Its orders. It Is turning out more crackers to-day than It ever (lid lit-rore, and the trade is still growing. Why Is It? It's simple enough. Marvin's crackers are the best that are made. People who use them once Invariably want them again, and tlie groctir who sell* theiu alv.ay Buds that they not only prove a good source of revenue to him. but make his store popular with the people. Marvin's crackers are made by skilled bikers of the very pure-t and best materials obtain able; they are scut out from the factory fresh from the ovens, and are never rendered un wholesome and unpalatable a well by being stored In a warehouse Tor a month of two wait lug for orders. The ordeis are always waittng tor tlie crackers. Always af-k for Marvin's Crackers at your Grocer's. If you are not al ready familiar with them,try ttiem and be con vinced of the truth (.1 all that has been said about them. Vou'llnever regret it.—The Penn sylvania Grocer.
