CHEWING GCM,
How II is Prepared and Where it Comes
From.

Chewing gum is substance well
known 10 the youthful part of the com,
munity. The qualities which it pos
sesses at the time that it comes from
the confectioner are all familiar to the
youngest of us. 1t certainly seems to
be very attractive edible. The reason
for this is not so hard to find. Think
now much eating there is in proportion
to actual weight and cash value. But
there is more in chewing gum than is
dreamed of in juvenile philosophy.
One can easily comprehend the main
ingredients of candy, but who, without
being told, would suspect that chewing
g. III is often only fine product OF pet.
roleum? The time was when the fra
grant spruce furnished the most COM
mon material for that purpose. But
this is no longer the case. The reader
familiar with the processes Of refining
coal oil is aware that the thick brown
liquid which comes from the earth at
one stage OF its manufacture is strained
through heavy cloths. The residuum
left after this operation is dirty, brown
ish yellow wax, that smells abominably.
That unpromising substance, melted,
bleaohed, deodorizsd and prepared for
commerce, appears in masses that
weigh about 100 pounds, resembling
oblong block of clouded ice. 1t has no
odor and no taste, except what belongs
to any wax in its purest state. 1t may
be used for many purposes, but il is not
necessary to describe them now.
The manufacturer of chewing gum
purchases these blocks, ready made
to his hand, and at once metls them
down. To 200 pounds of wax he adds
about thirty pounds sugar, and gives
the mixture n flavor by the use of some
essential oil, as lemon or vanilla, and,
perhaps, adds some coloring matter.
The melted mass is poured out upon
clean marble slab and cut in the vari-
Gus shapes known to the masticators.
The youthful epicure rarely becomes so
luxurious as to demand balsam of tolu;
but, if he does, the manufacturer is
ready for him. This resin, which is OBJ
tanned from South America, is at first
in an almost fluid condition. 1t is the
product Of tree known as-now hold
your jaw, for the name is worse than a
whole box Of chewing gum-myrasper
mum toluferum. This balsam is
boiled by the manufacturer until final
ly it is brought to such consistency
thatit can be run through rollers.
1t comes out in the shape of a little,
slender rod, of brownish- yellow color,
which is cut into pieces, each about two
feet or two feet and six inches long.
The balsam may sometimes be mixed
with a less costly wax, since its flavor is
very marked. The balsam Of the
"chicle" tree, from Central America, is
used in making what is known az snap
ping gum. 1t is very ductile whom
worked and moistened, and the process
of making is similar to that of pulling
taify. The original gum exudes from
the tree and forms in Il mass sometimes
several pounds in weight. Even in this
natural state il would be vely satisfac-
tory substance to keep the teeth at
