OUT FARES. 
. on 
b -eel Car 
some passengers make it a 
practice to hold up fare- on 
a conductor on one of 
street car lines. they do, 
you wouldn't be running a cur 
a reek before you would gel on to 
some of their methods. 
conductors have some sort 
of n system of collecting fare. 
Some take the faces the 
as guides, others take in the 
general appearance of the 
while others go through their 
cars in certain systematic ways 
to the man. I have a system 
which may seem old, I have 
found it e good one, and I 
ask same passes twice 
for a far . as many conductors v hoe 
memory is not good are obliged to 
do, nor many fares get awry from 
me. 
fares look 
at a cravat, 
especially in men with 
faces, are frequent- 
nearly alike, so much so that one 
smoothly shaved stout lean looks 
like the smoothly shaved stout 
man, but their neckties will he 
is also deceiving to at- 
tempt to identify men by their head 
covering, as there will he a dozen 
men in the car with l re style

exactly alike. 
see. it is a r duty to 
led fares, and when we a 
passenger is holding a ticket it 
is also our duty to Insist that it be 
surrendered, so our identification 
should accurate to save trouble 
for all concerned. There are some 
passengers who always have their 
fares ready to hard to the conductor 
his approach. There are 
others who never produce fare 
until a specific demand is made by 
the conductor for it. and then the 
search for the ticket or the cash 
begins, and not until then. These 
passengers go upon the rule that it 
it not moral turpitude to heat the 
company out of its legal fee for 
transportation if the fare lie not 
demanded by the company's agent, 
that the company is under 
to transport them free of 
charge if they are overlooked by 
the conductor, and that they are 
under no reciprocal obligation to 
pay for a service rendered them.

tax for the sale of tire

prohibiting the shooting

pended for a day or two at 
Christmas. Of course in 
pending the ordinance the bur-

damage that may result is on the

dealer in town has to pay, there 
is some complaint over this, too, 
as there are stores outside of the 
town, yet within reach, that can 
sell without license and thus 
have the advantage of the deal-

is a knotty one from every

Schnapps Tobacco is Made ENTIRELY from Flue Cured 
Tobacco Grown in the Piedmont Country. 
The Imitation Brands Have Schnapps 
Quality Only On the Outside 
Of the Plug 
Hundreds of imitation brands are 
on sale that look like Schnapps to- 
The outside of the imitation 
plugs of tobacco is flue cured the same 
as Schnapps, but the inside is filled 
with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened 
air cured tobacco. One chew of 
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger 
longer than two chews of such to- 
The color, size and shape 
of the tags, plugs and packages of 
certain imitation brands of tobacco 
have been made so much like 
Schnapps that they have often been 
accepted by buyers under the belief 
that they were getting Schnapps. 
Sufficient proof has been secured 
to establish the fact that certain 
brands are infringements and in 
of the trade mark laws, yet the 
trade will continue to be imposed 
upon these until the suit 
already entered and now pending to 
protect Schnapps is decided. A 
great many of these imitations are 
claimed to be as as 
Schnapps, but there is only one gen- 
Schnapps. Be sure the letters 
on the tag, on the plug 
under the tag spell S-C-H-N-A-P-P-S 
and then you have most 
wholesome tobacco produced, with 
just enough sweetening to preserve 
the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of 
the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove 
that this flue cured tobacco, grown 
in the famous Piedmont region, re- 
quires and takes less sweetening than 
any other and has a wholesome, 
stimulating, satisfying effect on 
chewers. 
If the tobacco you are chewing 
don't satisfy you more than the mere 
habit of expectorating, stop fooling 
yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco. 
Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers 
formerly bought costing from 
to per pound; Schnapps is 
sold at per pound, in cuts, 
strictly and plugs.
