GOAL COSTS BRITISHERS
AS MUCH AS POTATOES
' LONDON, Nov. 3. (JF)—Anthracite
owing to the coal strike which be
gan in May, now costs London house
keepers by the pound as much as po
tatoes and nearly the same as cook
ing apples.
Even soft coal costs more than cab
bage, carrots and several other win
ter vegetables which are in demand
after the fresh garden supplies are
pinched by frost.
Anthracite, by the hundredweight,
at the beginning of cold weather, sold
■ for approximately $1.50 to $1.75 while
soft coal retailed at about $1.00, for
a 112 pound sack.
All sale of coal is regulated by the
government, under emergency regula
tions. Private dwellings are allowed
not more than one hundredweight a
week, unless there are unusual cir
cumstances wrhich must be explained
to the authorities for addition per
mits.

Regarding police patrol the Dai’’y
Alaskan says: “The people of Alas

particulars of the plan of police i a
trol recommended for this district lay
Judge Day. Until they are received
it will be well to reserve criticism,
i • g
but if it shall prove thep the plan is
for a paternal organization with plen
ary powers and without .'esponsibility
to the people of the district, the cri
ticism should be so vigorous and so
loud that it will be heard at Wash
ington and throughout the country.

A JIMMY-PIPE with an ample bowl. A
tobacco that is mild and mellow, yet not
"mollycoddle,” if you get me—and you
do. You know what I mean • • . mild,
yet with plenty of body to let you know
you are smoking, A tobacco that smokes
cool.
A tobacco that is fragrant in the
package, to whet the appetite, and equally
fragrant as you smoke it. A tobacco that
does not bite the tongue or parch the
throat. A tobacco so wonderfully satis
fying that you are kept busy smoking
and reloading, all day long.
There’s only one tobacco in the whole
wide world that I know of which meets
this platform. Its name is "Prince Albert”
and I claim it really is the prince of
smokes. More men smoke this tobacco
than any other brand, which is impor
tant and likewise true.
If you are still outside the fold of
contented jimmy-pipers, buy a tidy red
tin of P. A. today. No matter how satis
fied you appear to be with your present
brand, try Prince Albert. I promise you
a smoke-experience that will be new and
delightfully different.
— no other tobacco is like it!

P. A. is sold everywhere in tidy red
tins, pound and half-pound tin humi
dors, and pound crystal-glass humidors
with sponge-moistener top. And
always with every bit of bite and parch
removed by the Prince Albert process.
