Women and Revenue Stamps*
The new revenue stamps are causing the
women and the drug clerks lots of trouble,
says the Chicago News. The clerks are de
veloping a facility of explanation anent
them equal to a first-class public school
instructor, for every woman who finds an
articlecosta more than when she last bought
it, wants to know the reason why.
For instance, a woman will go into an
apothecary shop and hand out a quarter
for a l¢ box of powder and receives
only 8 cents in change. She counts it over
a couple of times, with the clerk watching
her, an amused smile adorning his face in
anticipation of the coming questions, and
then she says:
“I only paid 15 cents for this the last
time I bought it.”
"Oh, that’s all right," said the clerk.“lt’s
17 now. Uncle Sam wants the other 2
cents as your contribution to the war
fond.”
"But, I don't want to contribute to the
war fund. I don’t approve of the
I think Uncle Sam is an oldfbusybody,
poking his nose in other people's affairs.
Give me some other kind of powder. Hl
take something that is not taxed.”
Then she paid 20 cents for what she
took, but it did not line Unde gam’s
pocket, so at least one woman was willing
to sacrifice a favorite article for the sake
of principle.
The next customer was of another
"You’ve charged me 2 cents too ranch,”
she said, as she coanted her change.
"Oh, no, madam, I've not,” was the an
swer to the objector; "war is responsible
far that 3 cents. That’s a tax to help pay
the wages of the boys fighting dawn In
Cuba.’*
“Well, I’m jolly glad to help Uncle Sam
along ’hat way,” said the patriot girl. “It’s
mighty little to give toward making our
boys comfortable. I’ve not a relative in
the army, nor a lover, either, but maybe
some day a lad who is down there will be
my lover, so I’ll take ten boxes and give
them to my friends,” and with a gay smile
she left the shop.
Discovered, by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that, too, by a lady in this
country. “Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest tests, but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed incessantly, and could
not sleep. Ebe finally discovered a
way to recovery, by purchasing of us
a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovtry
for Consumption, and was so much re
lieved on taking first dose, that she
slept all night; and with two bottles,
baa been absolutely cured. Her name
js Mra Luther Lata.” Thus writes W.
