Cigar Dealers, Bewarel

Few merchants are aware of a new
law which went into effect in August.
Heretofore it has been customary to
scratch the stamp on a cigar box, and
il so desired give the box away or do
with it as he should see fit, so long as
the stamp was destroyed. But this is
no longer the case. The merchant or
dealer must destroy the box Immediately
after the cigars are gone. He must at
once remove the box from the case and
break it up. The law may sound little
queer, but be sure that it is needed or
you will be caught before you know
