THERE'S A WOMAN IN OUR TOWN
Who lives at one of the fashionable
boarding houses and still has sugar
whenever she wants it. Months before
| the shortage in sugar she began saving
a part of that which was served to
her each meal when she ate where the
! waiter brought two Jumps with every
cup of coffee. She used only one of
| these and slipped the other into a
small bag which she carried for that
| purpose. Now when she wishes lit
tie extra-pn her cantaloupe, her toma-
etoes or her cereals, she furnishes the
Jumps for her coffee from her bag
thus leaving the two teaspoonfuls for
other purposes.
