Veteran members of the hquo and senate

"It Is not many years," aald a prominent

the short session was of only three months'

about four months actual work each, year.

The Boss rose and drew his chair nearer.
Then, perceiving from a sudden rattling

an unuaual, expression of shrewdness
sobered her ea-er face. "I suppose you've

The recent ruling under the pure food 1
law prohibiting the coating of chocolate
candy with preparatlona of shellac Is one
of the very few Instance In which the
confectionery trade of the country haa run
afoul of that law. For twenty-five years
the National Confectionery association
haa been fighting for pure candy and other
confectionery producta. When the various
states enacted pur food law the candy
manufacturers sought to have confection
ery embraced In the terms of these laws.
They alwaya have realised that confec
tionery I viewed a a luxury and that In
the long run the best way to get a profit
out of the business waa to produce a prod
uct In which the people could have confi
dence. Vast sums are Invested In the business
of catering to the American sweet tooth,
and the total value of the product turned
out under these Investments In surprisingly
large. It 1 estimated that $130,000,000 Is
annually paid to manufacturer for candy
alone, 130,000,000 of thla representing the
profit of the business. There are over 400
candy manufacturers in tb United States
and quite a large number In Canada. The
factories of the two countries give em
ployment to more than 60,000 wage earners.
It requires (67,000,000 pounds of sugar a
year, with nuts, chocolate, milk, and other
things in proportion to make the candy de
manded by the conauming public The
people of the United States, comprising
only per cent of the world' population.
use 12 per cent of the world' sugar, and
even a greater ratio applies to the Amer
ican and Canadian consumption of confec
tionery.
It Is now becoming an accepted theory
that candy I valuable aa a food, and the
various government of the world are ualng
It In connection with the ration of their
soldiers. The telephone companies of the
United State encourage the moderate use
of candy by their operators on th ground
that it tend to make tbem more patient
and to keep them In better humor. It I
widely asserted that the use of candy tends
to lessen the taste for Intoxicants, and
that It constitute th beat prohibition cru
sader In the country. Bar room recognize
that the eating of sweet thing tend to
lessen the taste for the thing they have
to sell, so sweet are tabooed from the free
lunch counter. While candy often haa been
regarded aa harmful to growing children,
It I claimed that thla Impression has
arlaen from the fact that children get it
so seldom, and that they overeat them
selves when they do get it. A supply of
candy kept before them at all time will
result In a normal consumption. Th reg
ular eating of candy tenda to reduce and
even prevent 4 taste for cigarette, and few
cigarette smoker eat much candy. Hygl-
enlo authorities now generally agree that
the craving of children for candy 1
natural one. ,
Even the children feel th pinch of bard
times, as waa shown by the experience of
the Chicago candy merchants In th panlo
a few years ago. Their sale fiell off more
than $2,000,000 that year. Th year before
their sale amounted to $15,000,000, so that
the people ate only eighty-five pound of
candy in 1908, where they had eaten 100
pounds in 1M7. With a business amounting
to $15,000,000 a year, Chicago still is unable
to compare with New York, which Is aald
to eat more candy per capita than any
other city on earth. It annual consump
tion amounts to thousand of tons.
One of the best Instance of advertising
enterprise the world has known wa pulled
off by a German confectionary manufac
turer a few months agd. He secured an
exclusive contract with Count Zeppelin, the
great German airship builder, to print the
Zeppelin picture post cards. Th entire pro
ceeds of their aale went to the airship fund,
the manufacturer deriving hi profit from
the advertising hi candies got through It.
He la highly satisfied with the results. A
large confectioner keep a supply of post
cards on hand all the time, and even fur
nishes the stamps for mailing them. Th
only condition attached la that each card
ahall state that the sender purchased some
candy at hi store.
One would hardly expect to find that th
way women wear their veils could have
anything to do with the profit of th
candy atore, yet It has a very decided bear
ing on the standing of th profit and loss
account at the candy counter. Since women
have begun to wear their veils tied under
the chin, one establishment found that its
dally saving of candy from the candy
grafters amounted to thirty pounds. Even

LJk th candy business, th production
of ice cream haa gone forward by leaps
and bound In th last decade. It was esti
mated at th meeting of tb National Asso
ciation of lo Cream Manufacturer last
year that the annual production eg lea
cream by the refrigeration precis alen
amount to nor than 60,000,00 gailOM.
This doe not Include th production of

their Ice cream mainly from - tip United

The history ot ice cream la an Interesting
one. The flrat. glimpse afforded of cold
