Odd Cents in Prices
of Cigarets to Go, but
Consumer Pays Tax
The one cent extra which many
cigar dealers are charging for ci
garets is going to be done away with.
because of emphatic objections by
dealers and consumers expressed to
manufacturers. As a result, within
the next few weeks, according to u
number of local dealers, new-style
packages, containing a lesser number
of cigarets, will make their appear
ance on the shelves. They will sell
at prices in multiples of five, as they
did before the war revenue bill was
passed.
The consumer, however, will not
only pay the tax, but will pass over
the counter a neat sum in addition.
Brands which have been packed in
lots of ten will be sent out in lots
of eight. Those which have con
tained twenty cigarets will be cut
down to sixteen. This will allow the
dealer to sell them at the pretax
prices of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and other
"even" figures.
The new arrangements, which the
dealers say will affect the majority
of the "good selling" brands, will be
a hard blow to a large number of
dealers who have advanced their
prices beyond the requirements nec
essary to absorb the tax. Many of
these have been charging as high as
eighteen cents for fifteen-cent pack
ages of ten cigarets, whereas the tax,
even on goods purchased since the
law went into effect, would only lie
four-fifths of a cent on a package.
For twenty cigarets the tax, at eighty
cents a thousand, is only one and
three-fifths cents a package ar.d the
dealers who raised their prices to
eighteen cents absorbed the differ
ence. • "

Famous Mother Contributes
$5,000 Received From a
Recent Concert
Madame Schumann-Heink, who
gave one of her matchless concerts
in this city last night, pet an ex
ample for persons who have been
I'iX In contributing to our Smoke
For SoU'iers rund.
While filling engagements in the
east last month, the great contralto
received a telegram asking her to
come to San Francisco and sing at
a benefit for the Soldiers' Tobacco
Fund Accepting the invitation.
Mme. Schumann-Heink lourneycd
clear across the continent, to give
her services to a cause which is near
her heart. The concert was a great
success. Forgetting herself, as al
ways, in the service of others, Mme.
Schumann-Heink not only sang
many of her favorite selections, but
raised hundreds of dollars by
offering at auction autographed
souvenirs.
More than $5,000 was realized as
the results of the famous singer's
efforts—enough, it is estimated, to
supply 20,000 men with tobacco for
one week.
Mme. Schumann-Heink has four
sons in the service of the United
States —and one on the "other side."
Sho realizes as do few persons in
this country the imperative neces
sity for the cooling, soothing In
fluence of tobacco during the days
and nights of nameless suspense in
the narrow confines of a shell-swept
trench. The soldiers have many
needs, but none, perhaps, is more
pressing than the need of tobacco.
Hundreds of Harrisburg people
should profit by the example of
Mme. Schumann-Heink. One dol
