a new phase of the boycott has made its
appearance in the little town of Coon Rap
ids, Ia, where resides winsome little maid.
ten Of ten Summers, whose charms are only
equaled by the hckleness of her disposition.
Among the small boys of the village she has
been the &C knowledged belle, and feeling
herself secure of all their hearts she has not
hesitated to play most cruelty upon their
young affections, torturing them with alter
nate smiles and frowns, and dropping her
latest lover the moment she eSped another
whom she fancied. This sort OF thing the
youthful SWANS endured until their patience
finally gave out, and so the other day they
held meeting and passed the following res
olutions; "Whereas, for nearly two years,
we, whose names appear below have been
slited, disappointed, misgusted and ilI-reat-
ed by heartless croquette, without cause
or provocation; therefore, be it resolved that
we hereby, each and every one Of us, sever
ally agree to give her the grand bounce
that is to say, have nothing to do with her,
not to look at her or smile on her, or go with
her to any party or place, or treat her to ice
cream or lemonade, and TO do everything in
our power to make her feel bad and misera-
BILE for the period Of one year" Unfortu-
nately there was one young man OF twelve
mature Summers who was so astute as to re-
fuse to Join the movement. He has been
basking ever since in the tickle maiden's
smiles without rival, and it is feared that
it will be necessary to abandon the boycott
ilsorder to drive him from the field.

JAMAICA GINGER'S RUN.
THE KIND OF STUFF THEY
DRINK IN DRY COUNTIES.

Revenue Officers on the Watch for
queer" Med icines-Some pular
Dry County" Beverages-Countrv
Dealers Making Big Thing Out of
Jamaica Ginger what Physicians
Say About It,
Deputy Collector Of Internal Revenue
j. d. Dunwody has just returned from
trip through fourteen of the eastern and
southeastern counties OF the State. He
reports that several of the dry counties
have been imblbing largely of Jamaica
ginger. A thriving business was being
done at WaycrOss before the Deputy Col
lector dropped down on the town.
Ten dealers were banding the not and
spicy liquid, and were making good
thing out oft. One dealer remarked that
Jamaica ginger had become the most
popular medicine In the pharmacGpppia
He sold twelve dozen bottles a day, be
said, whereas, year ago, dozen bottles
would have lasted six months. The
thirsty OF that town, in casting about for
a substitute for whisky, hit upon the gin
ger. 1t comes in two ounce bottles for
the retail trade, and one bottle of 1t Will
overcome the most hardened topper.
Commercial Jamaica ginger is almost
pure alcohol, and physicians say that as
beverage 1t is worse than the unaduI-
terated article. Cowboy whisky is mere
lemonade compared with it as to fire and
intoxicating properties. If ancient Hellas
had suddenly become a dry State old
Bacchus would have gone thirsty sooner
than allav his thirst with such caloric
drink as Jamaica ginger. It's said to be
good to sober up on and probably ls the
first time, because it can easily be i'm
agtned that bottle of ginger would de-
stroy the desire for all other liquors for
at least a week.
Except In dry counties. however. itcan
never expect to supersede the cOuven-
tional cocktail. All of those who have
been selling it and who were detected
paid the revenue tax OF $25 a year and so
per cent penalty. a number of dealers
quit handling ginger when they found
that 1t was being used as a beverage, be-
cause the county authorities were likely
to get after them.
The PrOhibitionists say that II the sale
is not stopped except for medicinal pur-
poses the handlers will be prosecuted.
The tax has been demanded OF a Savan-
nah wholesale dealer, and he will proba-
bly, pay it.
The deputy collectors of other districts
are making inspections, and find quite as
big trade in the ginger as there was in
this district.
