Thimble

I dug my second advertising thimble today, but so far can't find any info on it. Any ideas on "EAT MARVEN'S WHITE LILY BISCUITS"?
 
White Lily is a type of flour that has been around for over 100 years(see link).Maybe "Marven" was a distributor who gave the thimbles away to customers, or maybe a baker or restaurant owner?
 
I did see the site about the flour, and think it is probably part of the answer, thanks for posting it, I am hoping to get the next layer.
 
Marven's Biscuits (cookies) is, or was, a company in Great Britain and Canada. They are listed under "Other Companies" on this page:
