INCHES FROM
The Golden-Plated Rule
By Lilttan Paschal Day ,
A Waiter and a War Tax
1 treated my. niece to o iundac.
Wo Went to Order's, the Kent place.
The colored waiters were nil busy.
Ono hovered over nearby tables.
I noticed nh odd circumstance
Three different couples bad sundaes.
They paid three different prices.
At last the waiter came to us.
I osked for a price card.
We doesn't' hove 'cm," he replied.
"Prices change funr day to day."
"That's queer others have cards.
Who docs the changing? You?"
He blustered. "Why ypu come here?
l)ls ain't no cheap placet"
"Ufing two maplo nut sundaes."
,j ordered, ignoring the impudence.
Kach was' about a tcaspoouful.
Nuts' were stale couldn't cat them.
J'rlce. thlrtyflve cents fcnch,
U.cd to get better for a dime.
I gavo the waiter a dollar.
Up fumbled n long timo.
"Ob, yes, thcy's a war tax," be said.
"How much?' I asked. .
'Ten cents," ho still fumbled.
I knew the symptoms tip wanted.
"My change, please!" I ordered.
"Impudent waiters get no tips."
He fairly threw it nt me.
"There's yo' car-fare I" he sneered.
"And yours, tool" was my reply.
"You're coming with us."
"Whah to?" ho looked uneasy.
"Police headquarters! Come ont"
JIb yo-all a p'licS woman?" .
I wasn't, but didn't Bay bo.
His eye fell on my lodge pin.
He couldn't read, so obeyed mp.
Mistook ft for emblem of officer.
I preferred charges nt the station.
Profiteering, on war taxes.
He taxed each sundae a nickel.
It should have been four cents.
He looked dumfounded.
"All dla trouble? White folks!
Fo' on'y n'mlsable dent or two?"
"Enough cents make- a dollar."
I replied shortly.
"There's sense of another kind.
L Enough would make a decent darky."
i oaueu mm our, paid his tine.
He went home in it daze. ,
He's an ex-profiteer now. '
t
Isn't it odd?
A little profiteering's dangerous.
Borne judgo might call it stealing..

and iter Sequel
In war-ridden Europe, where fats were not to be
had at any price, margarin saved countless thou-'
sands of lives.
Here at home, millions of patriotic Americans
learned the wholesome nourishment of margarin,
and have naturally continued a delightful habit.
For once you try Kingnut on toast or griddle cakes,
you would never think of giving it Up even if it were
not such a great economy. It is delicious, pure, and
high in calories; fine in texture, and always uniform.
If you could see the spotless kitchens in which
Kingnut is made, it would add to your delight in its
taste. Pure vegetable oils and pasteurized milk
that is Kingnut
