OF months ago by abohshing the permit system.
Yet Johns resurrection has quietly taken place thru the aid of a
clause which still permits druggists to import liquors III any quantity.
While Tacoma drys have been resting comfortably in the belief that
liquor had received its final requiem, imports OF booze, a recorded in
County Auditor Tom Morris office, are almost al great today IS they were
when the ciys IA saloons were running full blast.
From Aug. until Tuesday night of this week, the auditor had issued
permits allowing druggists of Tacoma and Pierce county to purchase
1864 quarts of whisky!
OF all these purchasers, only seven were by outoftown druggists,
and their total isn't a drop in the bucket
Most OF the whisky has been bought in casks containing eight dozen
quarts each, altho some of the drug stores have purchased 50gauon bar
res Of bulk whisky, preferring to do their own botuing.
And the whisky is only a part OF all the liquor bought for Tacoma
drug stores
During the As days, permits have been issued for the importation to
this city and county of 1916 quarts of assorted liquors, 66 quarts of gin.

with each successive prohibition on
the importation Of whisky into this
dry state of Washington the number
OF users of raw alcohol has increased,
say the police. The result is apparent,
says Chief Rockingham, in the increas-
ing proportion Of intoxicated persons
brought in by the police, the majority
suffering from acute alcoholism.
All Records Broken.
"The September record Of arrests
surpasses al records both in totals and
in percentages of drunkenness since
the state went dry on January l, 1916.
The Gil charges of drunkenness, or OF
drunk and disorderly, represent an
even 50 per cent of the total of Las

coat begins to look shabby
when the coat is in good order,
and it is wonderful what diff
ference thorough cleaning
will make. First take a piece
Of clean cloth and dip it in
spirits of turpentine and rub
the collar thoroughly with it.
Leave it for ten minutes, then
rub it again with the turpen-
tine and scrape it carefully to
remove any loose dirt. Next
sponge the collar with a little
alcohol and keep wiping it UNI
til it is dry. Hang it up in an
airy place for an hour or two
and it will look as good as

it will go to that figure.
