WORTHY OF PATRONAGE.

Human Hearts," now playing an
engagement at the Grand Opera House,
is an attraction worthy the patronage
of every theatre-goer in the city The
scenes are laid in the Arkansaw hills
and in New York city. The characters
are taken from every day life. There
is no improbable hero and villain, but
they are natural beings such as one
elbows in the every days walks of life.
The plot, however, is of fascinating in
terest and it is developed by cast
which is exceptionally strong, including
some stage f2vorites well known in this
city. The dialogue. and situations are
clean and devoid of suggestion, and the
drama points to wholesome moral.
Human Hearts" will be on the boards
this afternoon and the engagement
closes tonight. The size of the audi
ences to-day should be limited only by
the seating and standing room capacity
of the theatre.

Yesterday morning the Retail Drug
gists Association met for the purpose
of considering the effect of the pro-
posed war revenue upon their business,
and energetic action was taken.
The bill has passed the House and is
now III the Senate, and as it stands
stamp taxes will be imposed upon all
patent medicines, perfumery, tooth
washes, plasters. mineral water, ETC.,
In stock at the present time, in the hands
of retailers. This the druggists object
to most strenuously, because it will
simply be a tax upon them, and in no
sense upon the public. A leading drug
gist explained the matter in this way
yesterday:
i have a large stock of preparations
which would come under the tax pro-
visions of the bill. Some | may nave
had in stock for years-others l may
have for years to come. The tax is one
cent on quarter bottle of patent medi-
cine, four cents on a dollar bottle, and
SO on. Ii the law passes in its present
shape, | must at once affix a stamp to
all my stock of this nature, at an eX-
pense OF probably one hundred dollars,
yet can sell the medicine for no more
than before. The tax simply comes off
OF me in bulk, and in no sense off the
public purchasing goods. Some artic-
les selling for as low as ten cents re-
qulre a once cent stamp. That is ten per
cent OF the retail price, and | must pay
IL. we feel that 1t is most unjust. If
we simply had to affiX the stamp when
we made the sale, we would not object
SO much, for even then, though we paid
the tax and not the purchaser, we would
not pay 1t until sale was made, and
the stock on hand, which may last us,
In certain lines, through years, would
not be affected. We buy many Of these
goods in large quantities, they do not
deteriorate, and they often remain with
us for long time If we affix stamps
now | am satisfied l would have goods
stamped on my shelves for years after
the war is over
AS result Of the meeting a commit
Tee OF four, consisting of Messrs. j. 7.
Goodwin, Charles Menkemiller. w. w.
irwin and G. Schnepf, waited upon Con-
gresham DOvener, at the Hotel Wind
sor, and laid the matter before him.
Mr.. Dovener at once saw the business
of the complaint. and as a result of the
conference two long kilograms were
sent to Senators Faulkner and Elkins,
setting forth the situation, and ask
Ing that action be at least withheld I'M
til letters could be sent on. These will
be at once forwarded, and it is hoped
that some modification can be made in
the bill, particularly as like action is
beng taken by other Druggists Asso-
Citations all over the country.
