The Strict Rules.

The strict rules and regulations that
are growing stricter eaoh month have
led naturally to an increased amount
OF deception and countless attempts by
those who possess stocks Of clothing to
evade the card system by selling at alb
normally high prices to-those who can
not procure cards. The latest reports
from Berlin tell Of the arrest OF a
woman who was found to have con-
cealed q stock Of i,sO0 doren pairs OF
stockings. These she was pcddling in
little cafes and resorts where there
was q minimum danger Of her diseov'
cry and at utterly disproportiona,s
prices.
