Girls Must Not Chew Gum.

"Girls, if you would have plump
and rosy cheeks don't chew gum"
are the opening words ofa lecture
just issued by distinguished profess
sor on the evils of chewing gum, a
habit which just now has taken a
strong hold on the girls of the land.
The fashionable young lady considers
a package of dantily arranged chew
ing gum as very necessary part OF
her wardrobe, and when the ''in-the-
swim young man" wants to make his
best girl present he gives her a little
silver box, more dainty even than
the gum itself, and from this the miss
is pleased to hand around her gum
to her afternoon callers. A young
lady and her tulu are inseparable.
On the beach and in the bath it is
with her, and even in the folds of her
scant evening dress it may always be
found. The gum habit has spread
over the entire land, and the Califor-
MIA girl uses it, as does also the New
York belle, for Dame Fashion has de-
creed it.
The gum comes in attractive pack
ages tied in delicate ribbons, and con-
tanned in each bundle of one dozen
pieces is neat card setting forth the
advantage of gum from sanitary
standpoint. It reads: Dyspepsia,
which is so prevalent in America, is
caused solely by lack of saliva as
simulated with the food, due to the
fact that Americans eat too much
and too rapidly. The act of chewing
gum stimulates the salivary glands,
and, by giving to the food taken it's
proper quota of saliva, greatly aids
digestion and positively prevents
dyspepsia"
The lecture published by the emf
nent scientist quoted above refutes the
statements of the chwing-gum max
or, and asserts that this dainty NOR
sci is a dangerous enemy to woman
kind, almost as great an evil as rum
is to mankind. Fair maidens are
turned into human wrecks, and IT.
reparable damage to the system is
done by the constant use of chewing
gum. Rosy cheeks are made hollow
and sallow, and cute dimples are
transformed into wrinkles while deep
lines are drawn around the once
beautiful eyes. The lecturer says:
The constant exertion of the mes
setee muscles hardens it and removes
the fatty substance which conduces
to roundness. Not only is the full
ness OF the cheek destroyed, but
there is great tendency to wrink-
ling of the. skin, a natural result of
the falling away of the parts be-
meath il"
The doctor uses many other argu-
ments equally convincing, and when
they are placed before ladies proper
ly the demand for gum will be cut off
very materially.
The output of chewing gum is said
to be very large. One New York
house turns out daily in small pack
ages of one dozen pieces quantity
that in bulk would make nearly three
tons. This house makes the brand
which meets with special favor in the
eyes of society people. There are
many smaller manufacturers, all To-
Gated in Boston. New York and Phil
adelphia, and the entirely daily pro-
duction is between five and six tons.

Rubins tein,s PHI geographic Treasure.


Rubinstein, the pianist, has many
photographs, but none that he cher
ishes more dearly than one Of which he
is accustomed to relate the following
tale. He was, at the very outset of his
professional career, about to give his
first concert at a town in Russian Po-
land. Rubinstein sat at the box Office
all day, but not single person came to
buy tickets, and the young musician
had sinking feeling at his heart. At
last, however, Polish Jew entered, and
threw down q rouble, asking for six
seats. This rouble proved the first of
many thousands of coins that the artist
was to pocket during his career. Years
afterward Rubinstein again passed
through this Polish town, met his
friendly Jew of old. and had him photo
graphed. This counterfeit the pianist
would not part with now for many rou-
bles.-New York Tribune.
