LEADS ALL INDUSTRIES.
Manufacture Of Foods Far In Advance
of Other Lines Of Commercial
Business.

According to the latest United States
census, the manufacture OF foods Tex
Guiding liquors) leads all other manu-
facutring Industries, the value OF the
annual output being $2,277 ,7O2. 900, or
IT'S per cent. of the total value OF the
manufactured products Of the United
States. This is $500,000,O00 greater
than the value of the iron and steel
industry output. according to the Re-
view of Reviews. II is a wonderful
example Of the growth OF factory
methods in an industry once (less than
so years ago. to a large extent do
nestle.
Regarding the expenditures for food
we have but to take into consideration
the well-known actual statistical facts
that nine-tenths OF the people Of this
and other lands spend from so to Go
per cent. Of their income ESTIMATED
for the great majority OF American
families to be not over $500 yearly
for food alone, not including its prep
aration for the table at that. DR.. Ed
ward Atkinson's estimate Of $3.50 per
week, spent for food and drink for
each adult, is surely moderate enough.
This, upon an adult population basis
of 60.OO0,O0O, gives us weekly ex-
penditure of $90.0OO.00O. which in a
year would amount to the gigantic to-
tai of $4.6S0, 000, 900. II Is probably an
underestimate to say that $4,000. 000.-
900 is expended annually for food and
drink our approximate 100000 pop
ulation. Take one very small item
alone. According to an estimate made
several years ago we buy 11S.5O0, 900
pounds of baking powder per annum.
at a cost OF about $35, 100000.
It Is an amazing fact that although
the cost Of food makes up so large a
part Of the cost Of living and plays so
important part In economic and So
Geological problems. the most intelli-
gent people know less concerning the
elementary facts of food, Its compost
ton, sources, preparation for market,
nutritive value, adulteration, mis-
branding, ETC., than Of almost any. 9TH
er necessity Of life.

Of the man who seemed to be fairly

But that instant the strong form OF

they reached the shore q dainty girl

the swell Of the water washed her
ankles. As Rollins stepped from the
boat unsteady from his great exertion,
she cried:
Bert, you are. splendid. ! take II
all back. You are the hero OF my
dreams"
He regarded her inscrutably for a
moment. Then. leaving the uncon-
scious form OF the girl In the boat to
be cared for by the willing bystanders.
he took Nellie's hand and led her back

Calling the Landladv.

A mans curiosity got the better OF
him in Back Bay lodging house one
day recently and he paid for 1t, as
is usually the case. He said he hadn'
seen the landlady during his stay OF
three months, the rents being paiC
to the housekeeper, and a friend to
whom he made the remark said that
she was around about every day-in
fact, he wouldn't be surprised IL she
was in the house then.
To test his confidence he was will
ing to wager the cigars that she was
there, and his doubling friend consid-
cred 1t too easy thing to lose, so he
said: agreed" Then the man who
was certain proceeded to win easily.
Selling a plate from the table, he
dropped 1t upon the floor, and in less
than a minute the woman of the house
was on the scene inQuiring about the
cause OF the noise. The doubter was
satisfied.
