AIMS AND THE MAN

one another IN ceaseless succession.
The jerky strains Of after the BaA"

which was unique in uneven breaks

RETREAT rs CLOSED.
Clergy Of. Burlington Diocese in Session
Two Weeks.

Burlington, July 29--The retreat at
ST. Miehael's institute for the clergy of
she diocese of Burlington, which has
been in session for the past two weeks,
closed yesterday. The retreat has been
successful one, there being a large at
tendance both weeks. The Rev Timothy
Barrett, Of the Woodstock College, Mary
land, has been constant attendant and
his diseourses have been instructive and
interesting. This is the first time that
retreat has been held at st. AIiehaeps
but because Of the commodious quarters
and pleasant surroundings it will prob
ably be held there next year. Hereto
fore the retreats have been held in vari-
GUS parts OF the state but it has always
been difficult to find a place large enough
to accommodate all the visiting priests.
ST. Afichaeps has proved an ideal place
for these gatherings, there being many
rooms, a spacious hall, and delightful
surrounding grounds.

of Chicago, arrived in this place last
night, coming here on invitation of the
Ta:nnany club Of ward IL to deliver
an address at the annual outing Of the
club, a Democratic organization, at the
Caledonian grove on Saturday. A COM

State Senator w. 7. A. Fitzgerald, chair
man of the Democratic city committee,
met Mayor Dunno at Springfield and
accompanied him to this city.
Considerable local interest has been
aroused in the coming of Mayor Dunno
on account of letter sent him adyis-
ING him not to address the Tammany
club because its leader, Alderman James
M. Curley, had served a sentence in jail
for violation of the civil service laws.
Mayor Dunno said last night that he
would determine his course after he had

Food is thrown at it, sloppy, indgestible

Of nervousness, the befogged mind the
ill.temper, the pale and wrinkled face, all
result from those disorders peculiar to
women, and the only way to effect their cure
is to strike at the source of the difficulty.
There is every reason why she should write
some great specialist, one who has made the
diseases of women a speciality for a third OF
a century like Dr. X. V. Pierce, founder of
the fnvalids Hotel and Surgical Institute,

held sacredly confidential, and he gives his
advice free and without charge.
During long period of practice, Doctor
Pierce found that prescription made up
entirely Of roots and herbs, without the
use of alcohol, cured ninety y-eight per cent.
of such cases. After using this remedy for
many years in his private practice he put
il up in form that can be had at any store
where medicines are handled.

Drinks of Different Nations.

Figures compiled by the department
of commerce and labor show that
France drinks the most wine, per
capita. and Belgium the most beer.
The United States, as consumer Of
spirits, beer and wine, falls consider
ably behind most countries.
In getting away with the most con-
centrated beverage spirits, France
stands at the head of the list, drink
ing 2.51 gallons per inhabitant.
Sweden shows per capita con-
surption Of 2.13 gallons; Germany,
2,11 gallons; Belgium, 1.42 gallons;
the United Kingdom, 1873 gallons;
United States, 1873 gallons; Russia.
1.29 gallons, and Italy, "a gallon,
In the matter of beer consumption
little Belgium is a wonder putting
annually 56.59 gallons per capita un-
der it's vest. The United Kingdom
requires 35.42 gallons TO drown its
thirst, while Germany, which shows
the largest absolute figures in the mat
ter of consumption, takes third place
w''N 30.77 gallons; the United States
follows with 1904 gallons.
The consumption of wine may be
said to be concentrated in two coun-
tries, chiefly France and Italy. The
figures of per capita consumption in
these countries-34.73 gallons in
France and 31.8G gallons in Italy-are
almost identical with those shown
for beer by the United Kingdom and
Germany.

CHlcLE AND CHEWING GUM.
How the Late Thomas Adams Bull,
Biq Fortune.


II was just after the close of the
Civil War. Thomas Adams was one
of the big photographers of war times.
He was employed by the governm mt,
and his heavy Photographic wagon fol.
loved in the train of the Army of the
Potomac. Thomas Adams, jr tn q
boy, was with his father and can tell
many tale of photographing en- route
in campaign days.
fter the war was over Thomas
Adams, sr, got interested in rubber,
then in the infancy of its develop
ment. II was a day Of rubber expert
mentation. and the chewing gum mas
man and one with a practical turn
to his science, got thoroughly bound
W in these possibilities. The problem
was to vulcanize the rubber and sci
ence got "no fcrader" for some time.
Finally, what vas thought to be the
proper missing element was discov-
ered-chicle.
Chicle came from Mexico. 1t was
the sap, or life blood, of the chico
zapote, one OF the rubber plant family.
Eventually it was found that rubber
and chicle together would not vul-
canize that while rubber was elastic,
chicle had no elasticity. But before
this was discovered large quantities
Of chicle had been brought to this
market.
The science of Adams then stood
him In good stead. He could see in
this unused raw material possible
rival to the spruce and paraffin gum.
It Is an additional curious fact that
to this day no other use for chicle
has been discovered. The great sup
plies Of II that came up here are turn
ed into nothing else than chewing
gum, and because of the buying Of
chicle steadily for over thirty years
the name of Adams Is probably the
best known American name in Mexico
today.
The first of the new chewing gum
was not the convenient, dainty pro
duct Of today 1t was made in the fac
tory in long sticks about the circum-
ference Of a mans index finger, and
from this stick pieces we're chopped
of. approximately the size of finger
tip. These were not wrapped up in
dividually, but were sold in boxes.
They were simply the Mexican sap,
refined with no sugar and no favoring
matter added.
With the popularizing of this new
product came in a new gum era--the
day Of the swapping and stretching
gum. Spruce gum was out Of it from
the start. There was fascination in
the gum that could be pulled out and
out in unending strands. The efforts
to spread it's use paid a thousand
fold.
Chicago is the gum town of Ameri-
ca business statistics says. The East,
however, is a close second. Though
many fiavors are turned out, winter
green and peppermint continue to be
the great favorites. Chewing gum Is
now a very delicate affair, compar-
atively, aud sugar is an important
factor in it's composition. Brooklyn

solidation, lost its famous factory
