"It won’t be many years bofore there will be soda fountains In tho big saloons,” said the proprietor of ono of the local hotels. “It’s n thing that has got to como. A lot of us have had It In mind tor a long time, but saloon keepers—a pretty conservative crowd, considering the nature ot the business —balk at Innovations. I am ot the opinion that It would bo n bit from the jump off. One of tho reasons Is that more men nre calling tor the soda fountain Btuff all the time, especially during the warm months. Take a look at the llnoup In front of any of the big soda fountains on a hot day and you’ll be able to pick out plenty ot fellows who have switched from the hard waters. The water wagon habit 1b growing, and a certain proportion of a saloon's customers In these days Is on and off all the time. The fellows who out out the hard stuff tor a time like to drop Into their regular saloon nnd meet their friends, but the average saloon doesn’t carry much soft stuff. The man on the water wagon gets sick of thla stuff, but If he knew that hts saloon had a soda fountain where he could take hts pick of a big list of drinks his custom would be retained. If somebody doesn’t make the opening break pretty soon I’ll do It myself, and I’ll bet that my Income will experience a very sensible Increase even at the start."—Philadelphia Record.
