Perhaps this is the main reason
why so many smokers of straight

Too much Turkish
Just enough Turkish!

TN one way, at least, smoking is
exactly like eating.
The more rich and delicious a
certain food is, the more care people
take TO avoid eating too much of
it-for instance, plum pudding or
candy.
The same rule applies to smoking.
Cigar smokers, for example, are
9oday more careful TO avoid too
many rich, heavy Havanas. lin fact,
more and more cigar smokers now
smoke cigarettes too, to help cut
down the number of cigars.)
In the same way, cigarette smokers
are learning that Turkish tobacco,
delicious as it is, is so over-rich or
heavy that a man can easily smoke
too much of it.
But they are learning also that,
instead of cutting down the number

Merchants Are

Ne1C Phone Rates

A wave OF indignation from prom

announcement that beginning Aug
] ar increase in telephone rates be-
comes effective.
u better service IS included In the
higher rates, the business men have
no objection to the increased pay
ment but in their opinion the stand
ard OF service will for a time at
least be unimproved.
Among merchants interviewed
were c. c Herr. manager Of the
Herr Book store. who said: Il don't
think that higher rates should be
allowed until our service is depend
a bic and fast. The consolidation Of
the two vstems has been completed
and II Is not expected that the serv-
ice will reach a very high standard
for several weeks"
The same idea was expressed by
Leo Swank OF the Swank Dry Clean
ing Co. who recalled the time before
the Home Telephone Co. existed
when the only company operating
raised rates at will until forced by
competition TO establish a rate con-
sistent with service.
Max Adler agreed heartily with
his associates that for the service
rendered even a small increase
would be unreasonable.
Il IS possible that a plan os &C
ton protesting against the increase
will be formed when the retail mer-
chants meet next Tuesday at noon
