There is a reason for every
thing, and the following, which
was passed on to The Gateway by
an Exchange, are some of the rea
sons given by a man to his banker
for being broke:
“It is impossible for me to make
a further payment on my note.
My present financial condition is
due to the effects of federal laws,
state laws, county laws, corpora
tion laws, by-laws, mother-in-laws
and outlaws that have been foisted
upon an unsuspecting public. Thru
these various laws I have been
held down, held up, walked on,
sat on, flattened and squeezed un
til I do not know where I am,
what I am and why I am.
“These laws compel me to pay
a merchant’s tax, capital stock
tax, income tax, real estate tax, |
property tax, auto tax, gas tax,
water tax, light tax, cigar tax,
street tax, school tax, syntax and
carpet tax.
“The government has so gov
erned my business that I do not
know who owns it. I am suspect
ed, expected, disrespected, exam
ined, re-examined, until all I know
is that I’m supplicated for money
for every known need, desire or
hope of the human race, and be
cause I refuse to go fall and go
out and beg, borrow or steal money
to give away I am cussed and dis- \
cussed, boycotted, talked to, talked
about, lied to, lied about, held up,
held down and robbed until I am
nearly ruined; so that the only
reason I am clinging to life is to
see what the h- is coming
next.”
Joe Heidsick, superintendent of
the Alaska Salmon Co., Bristol
Bay, arrived Sunday on the SS

"TOASTING" expels
SHEEP-DIP BASE naturally
(Black, biting, harsh irritant chemicals)
present in every tobacco leaf
"They're out
so they can't
be in!"
Every LUCKY STRIKE is made
of the finest tobacco leaves the world can
offer—the finest from Turkey—the finest
from Kentucky,Tennessee, Virginia, Georgia
and the Carolinas—the Cream of many Crops
throughout the world. But all tobacco leaves,
regardless of price and kind, as nature pro~
duces them, contain harsh irritants. LUCKY
STRIKE’S exclusive "TOASTING” Process
—a process that mellows, that purifies, that
includes the use of the modem Ultra Violet
Ray—expels certain harsh irritants naturally
present in every tobacco leaf. We sell these
expelled irritants to manufacturers of
chemical compounds, who use them as a
base in making sheep-dip*, as well as a
powerful spraying solution for fruits,
flowers and shrubs—enough to permit
the daily dipping of over 50,000 sheep or
the daily spraying of many thousands of
trees. Thus, you are sure these irritants,
naturally present in all tobacco leaves, are
not in your LUCKY STRIKE. "They’re
out—so they can't he in!” No wonder
LUCKIES are always kind to your throat*
