icas OF all ages. The statisticians
realize that any figures obtained are
bound to be far below the real facts
in the case. A few dozen Of the great.
er factories turn out millions and mil
lions Of pounds of candles annually,
but the most prying Of the men with
the government blanks are unable to
get at the amount OF sweetmeats that
are turned out annually in boarding
school dormitories. home kitchens
and over the flame of the alcohol
lamp that runs the chafing dish.
If Miss Americas annual candy sup
ply were loaded on one train of. cars
of the fullest capacity there would be
something over 5000 cars full of
boxes, buckets and glass jars. This
load of sweetmeats for the sweet tooth
of the American girl costs the con-
sumers about $125. 100000 every twelve
months.
OF these loaded cars of candy, 1t
may be said that they contain fully
as much nourishment as similar
train of beef or wheat. No one dis
putes the food value of the candy,
the sugar and the creams. and the
fruit juices that compose it are all
supposedly pure. But the doctors and

All Through Lie.
Miss America never arrives at an
age when a box Of candy Is not an
effective bribe. When she was very.
very small a box Of candles would
heal the most stubborn case Of heart.
ache. For a few bonbons she would
consent to swallow most any sort Of
nauseating medicines. When she be.
gan to fare forth into the world 1t
did not take her long to find her way
to the nearest soda fountain and
candy store. 1t soothed the heart
burnings of her maidenhood and con.
soled her for many shattered hope.
Later on In life she received the daily
or weekly offering Of glorious box
of subtle fiavors as a merited tribute
to her charms. Still later on box OF
candy presented to her by an erring
spouse always softened her heart and
took away any Just bitterness that
she might have felt over his pecca.

who had attained the age Of maturity
to be seen eating candies or anything
Of the sort.
The children had all the candy to
themselves. and at that there was
not much to have. The big candy fac
tory was as much unknown as the
steel rolling mill. There was no de-
mand for the product and there was
no attempt made to create one.
In 1850 all the candy that was made
in this country would have sold for
the paltry sum of $3.O4O,671. No one
paid much attention to the candy bust
ness. 1t was being produced in small
shops and by few workmen only.

the candy that was being eaten by
the waiting wives. mothers and sweet

more Importance than the confection-

returned the candy maker went back
to his kettles and pans. In 1870 the
candy shops Of the United States
turned out $15.922.643 in taffles, cream
candies. barber-pole stick and brown
fiat pieces Of the well-remembered
"hoarhound." Miss America was be-.
ginning to sit up and nibble gently at
the candy situation.
