There Is Money in Soft Drinks,


as there any money made ont of
soft drinks? Well, you had better be-
lieve there is"
The speaker was a person who
seemed TO know something about the
fixing soda, the seductive and health
full mineral water, the mysterious root
beer, and other carbonated beverages
with which the sweet summer girl will
regale herself during the coming few
months.
There is any amount of money made
in the II anufacture of these mild bev-
erages," said the knowing one. "Here
are the official figures as to the cost of
manufacturing some of them" he con-
iinued, drawing a slip from his pocket ::
One glass of plain soda costs Ito of
] cent.
One glass of soda water, with sirup,
IL cents.
One glass mineral water, cent.
One glass root beer, cent.
One glass ginger ale, 1t cents.
That is not dear, and good many
young men, when they see these fig
III es, may swear off buying soda and
similar drinks at fancy prices. But
they won't keep their vows. When the
time comes, and when the best girl
smiles at gentle Harry and begins to
get in her fine work, you will step
right up to the rack, regardless of cost,
just as you have often done before.
And you will be a roor stick if you
don't. That is why the purveyors of
carbonated drinks smile lust at this
season of the year. --New York Mail.

II is all well enough to transplant
the different varieties OF the Bamy
bass to afford increased sport TO the
professional anglers and to cultivate
carp for private fish ponds. But the
native fish, such as the wall-eyed pike,
striped bass, pickerel, yellow perch,
and even the sunfish and catfish, that
have afforded sport and healthful food
to the inhabitants of the State for two
centuries, are all worthy OF protection
and propagation. They are the fish of
the common people, those who can not
afford expensive journeys to the sea-
shore or great lakes to do their fishing
Every stream, lake, reservoir and mill
pond in the State should be full of
these fish, SO that when the farmer and
the farmers boy and hired man want a
little rest from their arduous labors,
with some sport thrown in, they can
find it near home.
The boys of a half century ago got
more genuine sport out of fishing for
sunfish with piece of Irvine for line
and a bent pin for hook than the
most skillful adult angler of to-day
who catches bass or muskallonge with
the finest modern tackle. Why should
not the boys of the present and future
generations be given the same chance?
And the old-time farmer and mechanic
who utilized cloudy day by catching
a mess of catfish or perch from the
nearest waters secured much-neetled
relaxation from hard work, besides fur
nishing themselves and families with q
healthful variation in their ordinary
diet. Shouldn't the farmers and me-
chanics and their boys be thought of
still in the efforts that are now being
made to improve the fishing waters of
the United States?

met yesterday at the boundary line. They
had travelled 800 miles through we'll

say great many settlers are leav-

families looked famine stricken and had
eaten nothing but potatoes and turnips
for some months They were afflicted with
scurvy and were sacrificing themselves to
save their cattle. At one place northwest
