SOAP EXCLUDED
FROM new TAX
One Cent Assessment Will be Made
On All Other Drug Purchases
of a Quarter.

That venerable axiom that
Cleanliness is next to Godliness"
has been recognized by the United
States congress in levying special
taxes upon drugs and toilet artf-
cles.
In buying a quarters worth OF
toilet soap or soap powder one
need only pay a quarter to the
dealer, now and henceforth, &C
cording to the new revenue law.
The special taxes are so designed
to avoid any interference with cit
liens who wish to battle or WASH
their hands and faces.
But in buying a quarters worth
of practically everything else In
the line of drugs or toilet articles
handled in drug stores. one must
pay a tax of one cent. Druggists
and dealers are required to add a
tax of one cent to every 25 ceQt
sale OF practically every kind on
medicine, tooth paste, toilet wat
ers and the like.
In the instructions received
from Commissioner Roper OF the
internal revenue department at
Washington this morning in the
office of Internal Revenue Collec-
tor r. D. McCabe. the revenue
officers are told TO see that the
one cent tax is added by all drug
gists to 25 cent sales after May 1.
The only other articles besides
soap and soap powders mentioned
as exempt are serums, antitoxins,
vaccines and bacterrines, used by
physicians in personal attendance
upon patients.

Stife of Spooners Hits
Cupid's Work on Joy Rides
Young Man From Omaha Visit to Kansas City

Kansas City, Mo-. Oct, 4.-(Spe-

the world go round, the revolu-
tons of this mundane sphere have
been somewhat slackened by Kan
sas City's Stife of Spooners. Be-
ginning early in August, when the
so-called good old summer time was
still in effect, police commissioners
issued a stern edict against any
demonstration of affection in public.
And that meant pretty nearly any
where, desperate spooners found.
Searching for any shady lanes or
hooks, secluded from motorcycle
cops, has been loves labor lost.

couple sitting in motor car out

all of. And as luck and Venus
would have it, the Judges of the
municipal courts sympathized with
the forlornly amorous. They were

Maybe He Needed
Haircut, But Judge
Couldn't Say Same

Judge Fitzgerald, whose dry hu,
NOR in police court has caused
many laugh and sent many a man
to the ceells with a smile on his
face, received severe jolt, of his
own making, at recent session OF
the court.
Everyone who has attended the
court is aware of the lack of hirsute
vegetation surmounting the dome of
the jovial interpreter of the law In
cidentally, the fact is tender point
with the Judge
Recently Attorney Frank jamie
son defended case before the
judge, and hung around till court
was closed to question the judge
upon some point. Mr.. Fitzgerald
fixed his interrogation with a steady
stare, and after some moments re-
marked:
when you die, if you ever do, I
am going to have your hair cut.
Seems nobody will tackle it while
you're alive
The stare was duly returned, and
without delay his fellow citizen said:
Maybe SO, but, you'll admit, that
kind of job will never be done for
you Jealousy was never worthy

A Taste of Regeneration
Enough for Weary Willies"
Humboldt Farmer Took Them From Omaha Mission
Fed Them Chicken and Pie and Paid Them $500
a Day-But the Wanderlust Impelled Them On
ward.

J. o. Shroyer OF Humboldt, Neb.,
who is one of the state directors OF
the Farmers union, while on visit
here, related one OF the experiences
he had during the harvest season.
He has lived on the same farm be-
tween Humboldt and Stella 40 years,
and while his sons have active man.
agement of the farm, he retains a
proprietary interest. Says he:
During the recent harvest season
| needed help on the farm, so |
came to Omaha and applied to the
Midwest Gospel mission, where
two men were referred to me. These
men said they were willing to go to
HUMBOLDT and would pay their own
fares. We got off of the train at
Stella and Isengaged an automobile
to take them out to the farm. |
could see they were OF the class
generally known as buns, but they
said they would stick through the
harvest with me, so | took a chance.
[ told Mrs. Shroyer to feed them the
best we had, so she gave them fried
chicken and pie and our little atten-
tons seemed to appeal to them. One
of the men was about 50 years and
the other about Is. They said they
had roamed around the country to-
pether for FIVE years. The younger
man told me that his pal talked like
an I. w. W., but he wanted me to
be sure that he was not an l. w. w.
"They agreed to work 10 hours a
day for so cents an hour. And they
certainly did work for the best that
was in them. Sunday afternoons,
when l would go to HUMBOLDT to
visit my parents, | left them on the
farm alone and did not even lock
the house. A new Ford was in the
barn. and I found that by letting
them know that | trusted them, they
appreciated that feeling Of conf
dence which | had shown. When we
returned home from our Sunday al
ternoon visits. we found that they
had MIXED the cows, brought in
wood and did other little chores
which thet did not have to DO.

Chief of Detectives Dunn is fos-
tering hopes of organizing an Alpine
Mountain Climbing club among his
proteges. The plot or plan-take
your choice-was devised following
wild chase through the cliffs and
mountainous regions of First and
Cedar streets after three imaginary
banditti
By mistake, the chief of detectives
and several of his gang, including
Charlie Van Deusen, Paul Haze and
Al Lundeen, motored until the mud
became deep, to a brick yard almost
in the river instead of to bridge
company presumably somewhere
else.
With heavy artillery in their
hands and enough ammunition to
cause the police force worry, Chief
Dunn and his gang weaved through
culvers, up, up, up unbroken trails
and along tall cliffs, with no ban
dts in sight. The topography OF
the vicinity inferred there was even
no evidence of any human being
ever having been there. and the de-
tective gang gave up the chase.

Those who motored and spooned
simultaneously were named as an
especial object of this police decree.
And in this specification the bulk
sof the populace concurred, particu-
larly the pedestrians. AS a reporter
on the Kansas City Star expressed
it-"You cannot safely embrace a
lady and Ford at tleesame time.
There is often enough trouble with
either alone" =
But in general, the order was the
object of a. torrent of 8opprobrium
and aspersions. A spooner. like
anyone else, felt that after fellow,
