Secrets Of Chewing Gum Makers.


A chewing gum factory that claims the
distinction of being tho. lird largest IN
the world may be found Within the gates
of Chicago Though one is not permitted
even to glance into tho great room where
the clang of machinery indicates the sa-
cred spot, and though one cannot Converse
with the liege lord who, locked in his pri-
vate office, concocts mixtures to tickle the
palate Of the professional gum ohewer,
there are many interesting things to be
heard and seen In the packing department.
One Of the managers laughed aloud at
the bare suggestion of admittance being
refused OF. the ground that the ingredients
are Injurious
"Some people actually think" he said,
that chewing gum is made from old rub
Der boots and refuse matter. The fact Is
that only pure materials are used the
principal ingredient being an emulation
from a species of rubber tree native In
Mexico"

1T Is q thick brown sap of the consist
ency and color of maple strip. We get
it in the original state, with particles of
bark and dirt. This goes through a long
process Of cleaning Then, of course the
process of making is "a profound secret.
There is a man in our employ, by the way
who for 2l years has done nothing else but
experiment on new brands of chewing
gum. No, even a manager could not take
his wife through the factory, so rigid are
the rules. Each employee knows only his
particular part of the work, so the secret
of making, as whole, is preserved"
Are the materials expensivef"
Eyes, for the original gum costs 81. 10 a
pound in ton lots and the essential oils
used cost 81 pint. These are the princi-
pal ingredients. - Chicago Tribune.

Prof F. A. Leighton is instructor and SUI

Iowa State Agricultural College at Ames,
Iowa. He has been there several years and
is well known throughout the state. His
wife, writing to Wells, Richardson & Co.,

says;
Last May had rheumatism so severely
that I could only get around by the aid of
crutches Nothing that used did me any

celery compound to me, and 1 used it regu-

1.-THE compound also did my sister a
great deal of good while attending college,
giving her strength and health. There is

equal for building up the weak and run

Duck Night at EwellPs.

Duck night at Ewell's store down on
the Virginia coast near the North Caro-
lima line is locally famous in the duck
ing season as the special night in the
week when the storekeeper is at home to
the duck hunters of the region. Ewell
buys ducks of the hunters, paying for
the game in goods from his store and
shipping his purchases to an up coast life
saving station, whence they find their
way to the markets Of Baltimore, Phila-
delphia and New York.
AS Ewell waits behind his counter

ing fellows of the beach comber type.
drop in one by one and sit round in the
gloom. Ewell hangs the game in cold
room at the rear of the store and credits
each QUICKER with the agreed value of
his ducks. As each transaction is made
the QUICKER recalls something that he
needs from the merchants stock, and
when he has received the article the
price is debited against his credit. The
QUICKER then relapses to the nearest bar
rel or box and waits until some other
needed article shall occur to his mind.
He then makes the new demand upon
the merchant, has a new debt placed
against his credit and again sinks back
into the gloom.
After fully two hours of this sort of
thing those who wish the balance of
their credit paid in cash receive their
dues, and everybody cautiously repairs
to hollow tree hard by, where moon
sinners from over the North Carolina
line are waiting with fiery article of
untaxed liquor, and the heart of the
QUICKER is made glad.- Philadelphia
