In a trade directory 45,661 retail names are listed.

It is true that some of them hay0 no soda fountains; but the direct profit in a fountain Is so large and its value in bringing into the storo people who buy. medicines, soap," perfumery, toilet articles, Is so great that it is believed at least 80 pfer cent of the druggists sell soda water. Every candy shop of even the smallest pretensions has a soda fountain and so have, moat caterers.

There 'is no soda 'fountain trust. The expfrl- of combination was made by lead- Ing manufacturers some time ago, but it ended in a fizzle. Since the Sharp com-petition for trade was resumed, attractive terms of payment have been offefed to retailers, and-thus they are tempted to go the limit in the way of mere show and glitter. In these circumstances It is probably fair to figure the average price of'a 'soda; fountain at $2,0 OD.

Here is the basis of the estimate: Ifce number of fountains iil operation being, roughly and the average eBfit of each J2.QW, the output of each fountain ought to oe about 2NT5-ceht drjnks day to yield a satisfactory return on the investment. Receipts averaging a day would bring the total daily revenue from soda fountain beverages up to a day, or $438,000,000 a- Astonishingly ihcredible as this sum is, it is probably far'short of the literal fact.

On Sundays and holidays the receipts soar far above the average. Besides this reckoning is based on a uniform price of niekeJ a drink. On the other hand, at the finer fountains many of the most popular drinks, with eggs in them, sell at 15 cents, iihd a ffew fancy combinations for 20 cents. At a fancy confectioner's, such dainty inventions as colonial chocolate with iqe cream and pistachio royal sundaes are dispensed to tbirsty thousand's at IS cents a glass. Bo -when the enorinous consumption of higher priced drinks Is taken into "account, even $500,000,000 a year for" soda fountain beverages is not an extravagant figure.

In "Kew York there is softie-compensation for tnis loss in the presence of thousands of travelers from all. parts of the country, who come to take passage for Europe, and during the few warm days they spend in town keep the dispensers on the jump. A few comparisons will show the, importance ot the soda water- production among the industries of the.
