HE’S THE WHOLE WORKS
An exchange prints a little story, clipped from an
unknown source, which is very good and perhaps also
very old. Anyway, it is worth repeating.
It concerns an Omaha jobbing house and a customer
merchant in an Iowa cross-roads town. A shipment of
goods received by the customer was rejected as unsatis
factory :
The jobber prepared to institute suit for collection,
and wrote to the railroad agent at the village for infor
mation about the arrival of the merchandise: to the presi
dent of the bank for information concerning financial
standing of their customer; to the mayor of the city ask
ing him to recommend a good lawyer to handle their case;
and1 to the merchant himself, threatening suit, if he did
not make payment at once. This replv was received:
“I received vour letter telling me I had better pav up.
“I am the railroad agent here and received the letter
you wrote the agent.
“I am the president and sole owner of the local bank
and can assure you as to my financial standing.
“As the mayor of the city, I hesitate to refer you to a
lawyer, since I am the only member of the bar in this
“If I were not the pastor of the only church here, I
would tell you to go to hell!’’
The monotony of safety is less pleasant than the thrill
of avoiding danger. That’s why, though you may be
safer in Mexico than you are in the United States, you’re
not happier.
This last minute bunkum of battlers, promoters, their
managers, and what have you, is enough to make a horse
laugh with great gusto.
The whole issue will be settled whenever prohibition
is as manifest in the nation as it is in the! Constitution. *
If you doubt that Barnum was right, read a modern
political platform.
Coffee. Satisfaction
JUDGE your coffee by the number of cups of sat
isfaction per pound and not the price per pound.
With a uniform flavor and strength that meets
every requirement of the most critical taste —
quality is real economy in the highest form.

in the big sea feature
‘‘ Twelve Miles Out ”
A thrilling story of the East Coast, giving you
a true-to-Iife picture of
RUM RUNNERS AND HIJACKERS
The yacht used, is one confiscated from a well
known rum-runner gang. The wonderful scenes
of the chase were staged with the help of the
government revenue ships.
A tremendous picture of law-breakers fighting
among themselves for revenge, and mastery of
the illegal trade, and in the end destroyed by
the law officers. No soft romance about this,
but a true account of the murderous viscious
ness of the present smuggling game on the At
lantic Coast.
