COUNTY, OREGON;
CHEWIXG GUM.
Its
Composition Is a CloBely
Guarded Secret.
An Industry That Gives Employment to
Thousands of Feople America
Is a Nation of Jaw
Workers.
Do you chew gum?
In more technical tevms, do you in
dulge in that continuous, vertical,
mast icatory movement which is s per
fectly disgusting in the street car but
pardonably popular in the privacy of
home?
Nowadays, says the Chicago Tribune,
everything is distinctively fin de siecle
or tries to be. And to be strictly fin
de siecle means to have "a purpose."
All the new and popular books, for in
stance, are "purpose" pieces of fiction.
And so the persistent gum chewer,
much as ho dislikes to see others com
placently smack their lips over the bit
of gum and sugar, hides behind the
laudable purpose, so called a subter
fuge, in other words of improving an
imperfect digestive apparatus, of
whitening the teeth or of sweetening
the breath.
Said Pone: "Old nol'tieinna nVioio
wisdom pant." THs truism is sugges
tive. But the modern chewer, what
ever may be hit excuse for the indul
gence, is addicted to something more
tangible and that something is a pe
culiar conglomeration of stuffs.
If your favorite brand is white gum
your solace is in chewing pararhne
which is a mixture of various earbo
hydrides that has been dissolved at a
gentle heat in olive oil and glycerine.
It is stirred on cooling and afterwards
compressed.
If tolu occupies first place in your af
fections you indulge in a mixture of
balsam of tolu which is made by dis
solving orange shellac and gum ben
zoin in rectified spirit, with" the ad
dition of a few drops of the oils of cas
sia and nutmeg dissolved in a little es
sence of vanilla oatmeal and sugar.
There is also spruce gum. made from
exudations of the spruce tree. This
gum from the manufactory of nature is
regarded as both pure and' beneficial.
Whether the chewer of gum gets a
liberal allowance of the oi-ovorbinl
peck of dirt which every individual is
supposed to eat in hi 'allotted three
score and ten in the sugared, llavored,
daintily-wrapped squares of gum is a
controvertible theme.
Tliere i in fact, such a mysterious
air of secrecy about th manufacture
of these innocent-looking masticatory
sticks that the wovdd-be visitor, who is
not given entree into the sacred pre
cincts for love or money, is quite apt
to think maybe "cleanliness is next to
godliness" is not the motto of the
chewing gmn manufacturer.
At any rule, there are innumerable
stories a lloat as to the ingredients of
this decidedly popular American prod
uct. A chewing gum factory that claims
the distinc t ion of being the third larg
est in Hie world mny be found within
the gates of Chicago. Though one is
not permitted even to glance into the
great room where the clang of machin
ery indicates the sacred spot, and
though one cannot converse with the
liege lord who, locked in his private
office, concocts mixtures to tickle the
palate of the professional giim-chewcr,
there nre many interesting thinj's to
be heard and many in ton sting things
to be seen in the packing department.
One of the managers laughod aloud
at the bare nuggeslion of admittance
being refused on t!ie groir.nl thut the
ingredients ure injurious.
"Some people actually think." he
said, "that clifTving.guui is made from
old rubber boots and n fuse mutter.
The fact, is that only pure materials
ure used, the priuc'mal iiiiroiliont l.o.
in;; an exudation from a species of rub
ber tree native in Mexico."

A Business Man's Method of Curtallinj
Kxpeuses.
A well-known business man walked
into a cigar store the other morning,
says the Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat,
and took out two coins! One was a
doUar and the other a half dollar. He
laid them both down on the case and
pointed to a box of imported cigars,
saying: "Give me a dollar's worth of
tlvose." The clerk handed them out
and the buyer laid the six that he want
ed in a row along the case. Then he
said to the clerk: "Give me half a dol
lar's worth of any good five-cent
cigar." The clerk did as ho was bid
and the five-centers were laid along in
a row also. The gentleman then took
the row of imported cigars and cut the
ends off of them all. Then he mixed
the five-centers and the twenty-centers
up together and put them all into his
capacious vest pockets.
A friend who was standing near, and
who had watched the operation with a
good deal of curiosity, said: "Where
fore?" "Simply this, my boy," replied
the man addressed. "I am in a business
where 1 have to give away a good many
cigars. I am a man who likes a good
cigar. I cannot afford to give away the
kind of cigars 1 smoke myself, so i buy
a day's supply and cut the ends off.
Then I buy some cheap ones. When it
is necessary for me to give away a
oigar 1 pull out a handful and oi?er one
to the person, whoever he may be. lie
thinks that the ones with the ends cut
off I have had in my mouth, and takes
one of the cheap ones, whereby I s:ive
a good many dollars in the course of a
year and also keep myself on good
terms with the pontile to whom it is
necessary to give cigars."
The Charitable l-oor.
That the pool are good to one another
is the silent testimony ot the race of
beggars. Many of the cross streets up
town through which throngs of work
ing people pass to and from their work,
says the New York bun, are infested
with beggars in the early morning and
oveiiing hours, and to an incredible ex
tent. These birds of prey, who are for
the most part bloated, rugged women
whose tatters are redolent of whisky,
place themselves close to the stoop of
some respectable dwelling house, mid.
crouching against the rail, hold out a
grimy hand which suggests rather than
asks a gift. Younir irirlw t'oin r to t li.de
i work ure moved to compassion, and
i men feel a superstitious remi 'naiici to

these sodden, hopeless waifs of humani
ty find it profitable to haunt the places
through whi -h the tide of daily labor

ference seems to be that the rich sub

ACQUIRED' EXPRESSION."1
Facial Peculiarities Whioh Come
Through Habit.
Distinctive Types That Are Found
In
Certain Callings The Queer Ef
fects of Occupation One's
I'pon the Features.
The incessant fiow of involuntary
nerve currents to the facial muscles
doubtless accounts for the odd simi
larity of expression among men of the
same vocation. In many such cases,
says Iilackwood's Magazine, the condi
tions are so complex that it seems im
possible to lay one's finger upon the
special items o' environment which
conduce to the facial characteristics
exhibited by nearly all members of
certain trades and professions. What,
for instance, is there about the process
of making shoes which evokes the un
mistakable cobbler's visage? The nor
trait of Edward, the P.anil naturalist,
in Mr. Smiles' book, shows the typo in
a marked degree. As far as my obser
vation carries me, the cause must bo
looked for in the last, lapstone and
waxend of old-fashioned cordwainery;
since men who work the machines in
modern shoe factories, or who do or
dinary repairing, do not exhibit the ex
pression. It appears probable that the
tailor's distinctive type of face may
have been partially created by his
habit of working his jawsconcomitant
iv with his shears. Eet anvnnn wnteh
a person cutting a piece of tough ma
terial with scissors, and he will see
that, the iower part of the face wags in
rhythmic and spontaneous unison with
the blades. Shepherds and farm labor
ers who join sheep-shearing gangs cer
tainly acquire a different expression
while engaged in this kind of work.
The cast of couutenauce by which
one so easily recognizes a groom is par
tially explicable from the fact that the
muscles which close the jaws and com
press the lips are always called into
play when we are asserting our will
over that of ahorse. Neatly ull jock
eys und horsemen have a peculiar set
of l ie mouth and chin, but 1 have been
unable to distinguish uny special char
acteristic about the eye or upper part
of the face. It is instructive to com
pare the visage of the ruler of horses
with that of the ruler of men. The
horseman's face shows command in tho
uiouih, the drill sergeant's in tho
mouth and the eye. 'I he last is un
doubtedly the most effective instru
ment in exacting obedience from our
own species. Here we get a hint of
that cause of want of dignity, that ele
ment of coarseness,- winch is diseern
able in the countenances of some men
and women who have much to do with
horn,.;. The higher and nobler method
of expressing uuthority is outweighed
by the lower and more animal one.
(ieneially speaking, it is lt strenuous
contest with minor difficulties which
produce a thin und rigid set of lips. It
is M'eii almost invariably in housewives
of the Maitha type, who are "careful
and troubled about many things," ami
whose souls are shaken to the center by
petty worries within doors, and the
strife a otitranee with shortcomings of
the scullery maid or the cook.
The compressed lip so loved and so
often misinterpreted by novelists is a
sign of weakness rather than strength.
It tells of perpetual conflicts in which
the reserves 1110 called into the fray.
The stiong will is not agitated into
st reiiuoiii action by tin; small worries
of the hour, ami the great fteeasioim
which en 1 1 for ita whole forces are too
few to produce a permanent impress of
this kind iihmi the features. The

muscle in his floating realm must oDey

ably a reason why the sea captain and
the engine drivers show a certain simi
larity of type. The engine driver can
make his captive giant, strong as ten
thousand men. obey the pressure of his
linger. His Hps are usually calm, like
those of the statues of the wielder of
thunderbolts on Olympus. Who ever
saw a man commanding a man-of-war
or driving a locomotive with the con
tentious lip of the school usher? The
typical expressions of the members of
those three liberal professions which
Sir Thomas Browne says are all
founded upon the fall of Adam are
well enough recognized to have been
long tho prey of the caricaturist. The
several distinctive traits of each, and
the possible causes which give rise to
them, are too complex to be dealt with
in a single article. Speaking very
generally, the cleric's face is indicative
of authority of the thin-lipped kind,
and of a dignified sense of the sanctity
of his office. The doctor's jaw and mouth
are less rigid, yet tell of decision. His
eye is vigilant and sympathetic, and
his whole facial aspect conveys the idea
of a fund of untapped wisdom. The
lawyer's countenance is confident and
confidential, with a pouncing alertness
of the eye, and a prevailing expression
of weighty perspicacity.
HISTOhio OLD IRONSIDES.
How She Escaped When Pursued by Seven
HrlUHh Warships.
The Constitution, or Old Trnnairloa
as she is familiarly known, is the most
famous of all the wooden ships that we
have preserved, says a writer in Har
per's Young People. Time and again
did Bhe vanquish the English ships in
the war of 1812, and proud were-the
people of her captures. Probably the
most thrilling incident of her career
was her escape trom seven English
men-of-war aftar an exciting chase of
nearly three days and nights. The
chase began on July 17, 1812. The Con
stitution was out for a long cruise,
and was weighed down with stores.
The sea was calm and no wind was
stirring. Capt. Hull put out his men
in boats to to tow the ship. They
pulled valiantly, and as night came on
the "kedge" anchor was run out half a
mile ahead. The crew on the ship kept
pulling on this, and the Britishers
didn't discover for a long time the
secret. Finally the English saw it, and
ntiopicti tno same tactics, and by
doubling up their crews began to pull
their famous ship Shannon near to the
Constitution. A light breeze sprang
up and saved tho American ship for the
time. There was a calm the next day,
and the agonizing struggle went on.
The next night another light breeze
came up ami the tired sailors obtained
a little sleep. The next day there came
a sharp breeze after many hours of
struggle. The Constitution trimmed
her sails to catch it, the boats dropped
back and the men were caught up as
the ship gathered headway. The Guer
rtere, of tho English- fleet, came abeam
as tho wind freshened and fired a
broadside, but the shots fell short, and
the Constitution's men ignored them
and yalmly went about straightening
up thwir vessel as if they had just left
port and such a thing as an enemy was
unheard of. As long as the Constitu
tion can be kept together she will
probably be seen at Portsmouth, N. H.,
where she Is now doing duty as a re
ceiving ship. Oar old ships have al
ways lieen proud, and it has amused
some of the thoughtless officials of
other nations; but there wits bravery
In their pride ami absolute courage
that has always U-en the embodiment
of that famous saying: "Don't give up
the ship!" We frequently huar laments
that the old soldiers ure dropping away
fast. 1 always share that feeling, but
I also include in it those wooden ships
of the navy- N-arretl veterans most of
them are, worthy of the abiding re
membrance of a grateful people.
