TOBACCO PRICES ARE TD GET BOOST Var Revenue Bill to Blame Smokers Harbor Queer Superstitions. i

Tobacco dealers are gpntiy breaking the news to their customers that there is soon to be an appreciable boost in prices. As soon as the new war revenue bill becomes effective the price of smokes is to go soaring. It is said that many brands of cigarettes now retailing for 10 cents a package will go to 15 cents, with the higher rriced brands showing an increase also. Many 10 cent cigars will retail at two for a quarter and snm. of the nickel variety will be dispensed at 6 cents straight. This is on instance in which superstition vill play no part. Many smckers. you know, are superstitious. Kef uses Tlrst Cigar. For instance, Jf the chap in search of solace through the medium of Milady Nicotine wanders into a cigar store and finds a fresh box of his favorite brand in the case, one from which no cigars have been sold, he will either buy some other cigar or go elsewhere to make his purchase. But if ymi will make a study of the matter you will never find a full box of cigars in the case of a dealer who- is familiar with the eccentricities of smokers. The crafty dealer merely removes a couple of cigars from the box in order tq offset the effects of superstition and when a few cigars have been sold he replaces the ones that he haa laid away.' And the superstitious man goes happily on his way hugging his favorite superstition and permitting it to grow and influence his entire life. The Bead Man's Light. In a crowd it is not uncommon to see a man refuse to be the third to light his cigar or cigarette from the same match. Just another superstition that Is quite prevalent. "The dead man's
