Soda-water and Its Profits,

The Cincinnati Gazette says: "a
few of the druggists of this city are
endeavOring to restore the war price
of ten cents a glass for soda-water.
Their example has not been general
ly followed, however, ana the public
is not likely to yield to the demand.
The high cost of ice is the excuse for
the doubling of rates, This may di-
minish profits somewhat, but not
enough to justify an advance 100 per
cent. in price. The profit on soda
water. which, as now made, contains
no soda, was always very large. 1t
is said that the firm of F. E. Squire
4 Co., paid their heavy rent at the
corner of Fourth and Vine streets
out OF their soda fountain. Carbon
ated water is not costly, while no
real fruit syrups are now used
They are manufactured from yarious
others, the basis of some of which il
not specially appetizing. Were ice
even higher than it is, soda-foun
tain with good run of custom
would yield a good profit at five
cents glass, and if it could not,
there is no reason for charging ten
cents where six or seven would give
as good returns as five cents in the
days OF cheap ice"

Fate Of Modest Men.

The world generally take men at
their apparent estimate of them
selves. Hence, modest men never
attain the same consideration which
busting, forward men do. 1t has
not time or patience &C inquire rigid
ly, and it is partly imposed upon
and carried away by the man who
vigorously claim its regards. The
world never has two leading ideas
about any man. There is always q
remarkable unity in its conception
of the characters Of individuals. If
a historical person has been cruel in
8 single degree, be is set down as
cruel AMI nothing else, although he
may have had many good qualities.
all not equally conspicuous. + q
literary man is Industrious in re-
markable degree, the world speaks
of him as only industrious, though
he may be also very ingenious.

Wool.

The Milwaukee Journal of Com
merce, in an article reviewing the
prospective price of wool, thinks the
price will not materially vary from
that received last year. 1t states that
the United States consumes forty per
cent. more wool than it produces, and
that, therefore, the foreign clip will
materially vary the price. The Wis
consin clip will be about the same as
last year, say four million pounds. 1t
sums up the probabilities thus:
l. = short supply all over the world.
2. Enhanced and constantly increas-
ing prices in all foreign countries.
3. Absolute scarcity of wool in this
country.
On the other side we have:
l. Poverty of Eastern manufac-
turers.
2. Loss Of the Western speculative
element which has usually moved the
clip.
Our conclusions are that the clip
will sell early at the opening prices of
last year, and that with the present
uncertainty now affecting all trade,
there is little hope for any material
change for the coming year. We can
not, however, overlook or ignore the
fact that the production of wool the
world over is, and has been for years,
a constantly decreasing quantity as
compared with the demand, and that
ultimately the law of trade will assert
itself so as to establish and advance
the price of the staple commensurate
with the present depression, making
the wool trade in inverse ratio as
profitable for series ofyears to come
as 1t has been discouraging for the
few years past.
We do not think that this season
will show any material advance or de.
cline. The trade is in node of rest.
The only surety we see for wool grow
ers or manufacturers is in the convc-
ton that matters cannot possibly get
worse, and that hereafter any change
will be for the better
