In Minnesota, where there is a law against the sale of cigarets, the fol- lowing from the Chicago Post is most interesting: There are 110 different brands of cigarets kept in stock at any down- town tobacco shop in Chicago with any pretensions to a general trade. In many shops there are even more. Fifteen years ago but three brands —two American and one Egyptian— practically answered all the needs of the trade. It is an odd growth. Many of our well-intentioned ‘people will seek to make it a moral phenomenon and see in it a sign of the decline of the race. But as a matter of fact it is a commercial development. It shows what advertising can do, when, back- ed up by “pushing” power and sel- ling organization. Considered solely from this stand- point the growth in the cigaret trade is interesting enough. For in- stance, there is the fact that the so- called “trust” puts upon the market, every week or so, a new brand of cigarets. They may be, and usual- ly are, composed of the same kind of tobacco as their numerous prede- cesgors, but the manufacturer has discovered that “anything new will sell.” So he makes up a pretty little box and puts out a “novelty” that stimulates business. The package has a good deal to do with it, anyway. There is at present on the market a cigaret box made of wood like a miniature cigar box, and although it takes up more room than a pasteboard carton, its “cute- ness” has been a powerful selling agent. The “pull” of the novelty was felt in the same way when cork and then straw tips first came into gen- eral use. It is remarkable that out of the 110 brands kept by dealers but two should be made of American tobacco. In England there are in common use at least twenty brands of American cigarettes, and it is said by some deal- ers here that it is our English popu- lation that furnishes most of the de- mand for the two Yankee smokes that survived the Turkish and Egyp- tian invasion. This pair does not of course, in- clude the cigaret tobacco that is sold in the form of “the makings” with little books of rice-paper on the side. A year or two ago it seemed as if this “roll-your-own” cigarette was going to drive the made-up spe- cies from the market. This demangd has let up a bit, however, and it is evident that it is not to result in a devastating victory. By this we do not mean to say that it is not in- creasing. It is. There are at least three popular brands of “the mak- ings” where there was but one a year or two ago. The cigarette business seems to re- semble the high-priced hotel business of which it is said that the supply creates the demand. Its economic as- pects might well be worth the inves- tigation of those who do not approve | of it. One ounce of exact knowledge nowadays is worth a pound of rheto- rie.

The principal shops of the town, the wharves and several houses are re- ported destroyed. Records for bathers at Revere Beach, Boston’s great popular shore resort, were broken during the last twenty-four hours. The state bath- house rented 8,120 suits. Strange as it may seem, the cool- est places in New York during New York’s recent hot scourge—the large restaurants in and around Broadway —are sald to have lost more money than any other general business. George F. Keller, president of the Crags and Canton Securities compauny of Denver, was perhaps fatally in- jured and Garnet M.
