How many people In the United States chew gum! No accurate governmental statistics being available, a conservative estimate may place the number at 10,000,000, dividing them into two classes, the inveterate or habitual chewers and the occasional chewers. Under the latter class may be placed school children, who are not permitted to chew gum during study hours. According to the census of 1910 there were in the United States 27,750,599 persons between the ages of 6 and 20 years in the 48 states and the District of Columbia. Of this number 17,300,204 attended school, at least occasionally, and may be classed as potentially occasional chewers, leaving a balance of 10,450,395 as potentially inveterate chewers of gum, all under the age of 20 years. Of course, all of these may not have been gum-chew-ers; equally of course, inveterate gum-chewers can not be confined to persons under the age of 20. These figures may be taken, however, to show that the estimate of 10,000,000 inveterate chewers is very conservative. The Aztecs of Mexico ar said to have been the first gum-chewers known on this, or for that matter any other, continent. The followers of Cor-
