FLUE CURING IRAPR0 IVES TOBACCO LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
F1'1e Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Tast
Found In Se1napps that Satisfies Tobacco Humuer

There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and fue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called hue cured. In 1ue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process developes in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, lust as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
of high grade, hue cured tobaccos.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Why White Men and Women Do Not
Apply for Government
Positions.

Washington, D. G., June 11.--John
"A. McllhenY, of Louisiana, a member
OF the Civil Service Commission, is
out in II circular addressed to the peo-
pie Of the South in which is pointed
out the number of fat Offices to bo
had III Executive Departments mt
Washington through the channel of
the Civil Service Commission. Mr..
Mcllhney criticises the people of the
South for not jumping at an oppor-
tunity to get Oh Uncle Sam s pay
roll. He states that there are hun
dreds OF positions, ranging fro 1920
to $4,000 in salary per year, to be
had by the men and women of The
South, and lie expresses himself as
being at loss to understand why
more Southern men and women do
not apply for them.
Mr.. McIlheny, being Southern
man, knows quite we'll the reasons
why Southern men and women do not
apply for positions under the United
States Government. lie knows that
Southern white men and women do
no' relish the idea of asSociating and
lAbnrin% with negro men and women
clerks. and as about 40 per cent of
She government employees are of the
ebony race, it is not calculated that
Mr. Mcllhney's appeal will induce
many Southern white men and wo-
men T." abandon their homes in
country where white supremacy pre-
walls and where negro social equality
is not tolerated for places in n Gov
ernment Department at WASHINGTON
alongside the kinky headed sons and
daughters of Ham.
Before Theodore Roosevelt became
President of the United states it was
rare to see negro at the head
or government bureau in this city,
the office of Register of the Treasury
and Recorder Of Deeds of the Dis
trlrl Of Columbia being the only
places Of Importance assigned to
members of the negro race. Since
President Roosevelt. however, assum-
ed the rcinS of government negroes
by the hundreds have been appointed
TO 'lerkShips in all the Departments
o1 the Government. Not only have
they h"rn appointed to ordinary posi-
tl"M> but many have been placed at
Inc head of governmental bureaus in
authority over white men and women
clerks.
In this circular Commissioner Me-
1lhney might have also pointed ont
char such a thing as a Southern white
man and woman clerk in the Gov
ernment Departments securing A pro
motion OF any note is almost an ir-
redescent dream. All the soft snaps
are reserved for the henchmcn of the
Repnblican Party, while the positions
OF drudsery alone GO to clerks hail
ing from the South.

Hundreds Of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is fue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, himsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco. ~
Expert tests prove that this flue
cured tobacco, grow n in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
Kind of tobacco .y0~ are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers formerly bought costing from 75c.
to P1,oo per pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in sc. cuts, strictly
10 and IS cent plugs. '~

FREE ALCOHOL LAW.

Although the statement still is going
the rounds of the press that the free
alcohol law and the regulations per-
tanning to it's operation all favor the
big distilleries and are such as practic-
ally prevent the farmer and the little
distiller from making and marketing
the fuel, the assertion is officially and
vigorously denied. The denial comes
from Commissioner of Internal Revenue
YerkeS, and he does not mince words
in making it. He says:
81 am surprised and entirely out of
patience with the ignorance | have
seen manifested by supposedly intelli
gent men who are discussing this de-
natured alcohol business. Members of
congress and the senate, editors of big
newspapers and ordinarily bright and
up-to-date men of all vocations seem
absolutely at sea when they get on
this subject and relieve themselves of
the most outlandish and absurd state
ments.
"As matter of fact, the manufacture
of alcohol and its supervision have not
been altered one iota by this new law.
1t merely throws certain safeguards
about the business of changing the
nature of the product. 1t makes me
sick to hear some congressman talk
about the ease with which the German
farmer can engage in the manufacture
of denatured alcohol and the difficulties
thrown in the way of our farmers.
1.-THE German can go ahead and make
all he wants, they say, and all the gov
eminent does is to send around man
couple of times a week to unlock the
lock of the container that holds the
product. Now I'd like to know what
difference it makes to the farmer
whether the government inspector
comes around twice week or stays
on the place all the time. In either
case the farmer does not pay the in.
spector, and the farmer is not charged
a cent.
"That's what this government offers
to do, and 1T does not make bit of diff
ference whether he makes five gallons
500 gallons or 100000 gallons day
The government will pay the cost o.
inspection, and not cent will be de-
Quoted from the profits of the distillel
for that purpose"
