you out a check for 10 cents. Would
YOU pay the cashier II or IL cents?
That is one of the points on which
the dealers are divided. some holdirS
that each person served is a separate
transaction, while others contend that
the tax should be paid only on the
total amount of the sale
Another stumbling block in the law
is the clause reading: When any of
the above are sold for con-
sumption in or in proximity 10 such
place of business" If one buys drinks
and takes them out OF the establish
ment for consumption, how far does
he have to so before he ceases to be
lin proximity" to the place where the
cooling beverages were purchased? 1t
was evidently the intent of the law
that no tax should be paid in some in
stances where drinks are not consum-
ed where they are bought But where
is the dividing line? How far do you
have to carry them before you escape
paying tribute to Uncle sam? Nobody
here seems to know.
Practically all soda fountain bev-
erages are taxable, the only eXcep-
lions being drinks which are CON
sumed just as they come from the
factory. Grape juice. for instance. if
taken straight would not be taxed,
but if mixed with anything it i'm
mediately becomes subject to the reve-
nue. levy. because 1t was compound
ed within the meaning of the law.
That the tax is not levied on the
dealer but on the consumer. The
dealer is merely acting as revenue
tax collector for the government. The
dealer is not allowed to add the tax
to the cost of the purchase.

BLACK DRAUGHT
CLEANS THE LIVER
Enthusiastic Texan Tells of
Bad Fix He Was in and How
He Got Well by Using Black
0raught Liver Medicine.

Holland, Texas. Mr.. j. n Messer,
who lives a short distance from here
out in the country, says: Black
Draught is without doubt the best
liver medicine made. l do not hest
tate to say it will do all it is recon-
mended to do and more. ....
l am strong and healthy but we all
need a little active medicine once in
a while, and Black Draught is good
enough for me. 1t does the work well
and cleans the liver, carrying away
bile, the easiest of any purgative l
have ever seen.
Once, some years ago. ! had slow
fever and my stomach was in a bad
fix, and Black Draught gave me relief
and helped me a wonderful sight. 1t
cured me of indigestion. and the bad
feeling after eating. l keep it for my
family, they use it and have for years,
and too, it saves doctor bills and is
not expensive.
A stitch in time saves nine, and
most sickness is caused by bad liver.
A few doses of Black Draught fixes
that, and l don't see why people don't
use it, and they would see as l have,
what a help it would be-" =.
Ask your druggist for Thedford's
Black Draught.
