APOLLINARIS PROFITS.

Although the profits of Apollinaris and Presta, Ltd., for the past year showed a small decline compared with the previous year, this is accounted for by the fact that some heavy non-recurring losses were entirely written off in con- nexion with America's abandonment of the gold standard during the year. Now, however, the Directors report that prospects for the Company's business in the States during the current year are distinctly encouraging. The report states that the profits from Presta Aerated Waters show a further increase.
