GUM B

"The chewing gum habit, not a
nice one to say the least, is grow
ing" said a man about town,
sand there is no telling when it is
going to stop. There may be
preaching and talking against gum
chewing, but it will continue.
Dealers assert that their sales Of
chewing gam are on the increase,
and that men are now the best buy
ers. Not long ago women and
children purchased the most gum
but now men arr the heaviest buy
ers Of this commodity. Remark
able to relate, almost all gums
now come in peppermint flavor.
That flavor is the most popular
in demand. Some men, so 1 am
told, are using chewing gum to
break themselves Of the tobacco
habit, but between the two it is
hard to distinguish which is the
worst. A year or so ago men who
were seen chewing gum were be-
lieved to be doing 80 to eradicate
an OdOr caused By something else.
Now it is more OF a pastime, and
I must say that 1t is growing at a
rapid rate. Men in theaters are
seen chewing 6 u m. Even in
churches some men can be noticed
with their jaws moving up and
down as they chew the gum. On
the streets chewing gum men can
be seen. In the dance hall chew
ing gum is very popular and many
men carry two or three packages
Of the innocent stuff and divide il
out among the ialrer sex. Women
folks we're formerly known to be
regular cnewers Of gum. Now the
men have that hOnOr.n

Ru8so-EMcLIsn ~ IMMINEMT.


For some days past the Berlin
press has been giving prominence
to all accounts Of pessimist rumOrs
regarding strained relations be-
tween Russia and England. It
seems to register with certain
pleasure the various phases Of the
newspaper war now going on be-
tween the two countries, but the
most sensational Of all recent ru-
mOrs is one given by the Berliuer
Tageblaat.
According to Col. Gadke, the
Berliner Tageblaat's military or
respondent, at present n st.
Petersburg in military circles in
the Russian capital, the outlook
regarding the relations with Great
Britain in the near future is still
pessimistic. The general idea that
war with England will be the nat
ural consequence Of RussO-Japan
ese conflict, and preparations are
already being made for this event
uality, so much 80 that by the
order Of the minister Of marine
the leasing for the summer Yallas
on the island Of KOtlin is strictly
prohibited, or must be broken of,
since the island is required by the
admiralty for the erection Of forth
fcatiOna.
A similar prOhibitation also ap'
plies to various localities on the
Finnish and Baltic coasts.
News irem q reliable source Is
also to hand Of arrangements on
the frontier Of Turkcstan. These
reports are so extraordinary that
under ordinary circumstances they
would be passed over as a mere
invention, but Col. Gadke is an
officer Of distinction, who ranks as
ono Of the leading military writer's
in Germany, and as be writes
above his signature one may as
sumo he thoroughly recognizes the
gravity OF the statements he makes,
Further communications from
the Caucasus, which are regarded
even by the Tageblaat as exagger.
ated, express the CONVICTION that
prevails there that Russia is fully
prepared to march against linda,
but it is not decided as to whether
the advance will be made through
Persia or through the Pamirs.
Berlin newspapers also give
prominence to the statements O.
the EOvOe Veremya that trouble il
growing in Persia, and tina.
Teheran is full Of English seCre'
agents, who are seeking to excite
the population against Russia b!
exaggerating the reports Of japan
ESQ victories.
The semi-Oficial press continues
to ley stress on the close friend
ship now existing between Ger
many and Russia.
sGermany," says the Post thi
evening, was for many years Sian
dered by the Pan.Slavist press
but now Russia realizes that he
true friend is Germany. II Ger
