From, the Chicago Herald.
There are butter factories in this city

hundreds of thousand of dollars annual
ly- There are coffee and spice manufac-
turers who pack thousands OF pounds OF
their ground denominations VINO handle
very little coffee and import no spices at
all. There are ice cream manufacturers
who never use milk, cream, eggs or sugar.
There are apiarists, who. though turning
out honey by the ton, have no bees. There
are candy manufacturers who buy little
or no sugar. There are maple sugar
dealers who own no maple trees and have
no use for any. There are retners OF
lard who have no use for pork.
There are manufacturers of fine fruit
syrups who never buy any sugar,
and VINO would not know what
to do with fruit flavOring if they

other just such villains in almost every
line OF business that IS in any way con-

swers every purpose, besides being cheap.

the hose is carried is suspended from two
large steel shafts, supported by the for
ward and rear trucks. The wheels are
massive. and their revolutions, as well as
the movement OF the spool which
carries the hose, can be promptly checked
by the driver by means of levers near his
foot. Underneath the forward seat is "A
