Oct. li. -A slump lax of two cents on nil bank checks is provided for in nn amendment to the war revenue bill adopted bv the senate finance committee which rcvisiuj I lie liou.-e lrnfl, y m am Good News from Washington Part of "BULL" DURHAM Tobacco Released to Civilians at Home to "Roll Their Own" ' In response to an urgent request from the Government, last April, we cheerfully turned over the entire output of "BULL"i DURHAM Tobacco for the exclusive use of our Soldiers and Sailors. It was realized that, while this arrangement would meet with the most generous approval of a multitude of civilian users, it would at the same time mean an irreparable loss to them, accustomed as they were to "rolling their own" with good old "Bull." Despite the heavier and -heavier demand of ever -increasing forces at the front, the production of "BULL" DURHAM Tobacco has been more than ample. The future needs of our fighting men have been anticipated. This happy condition has been attained by a tremendous increase in manufacturing facilities, effected at a pro portionate cost. Owing to this enormously increased output, a limited surplus of " BULL" DURHAM is available today for those civilians who so keenly felt the loss of their "makings," but who so whole-heartedly gave up their "Bull" in compliance with the Government's wishes. So that now, with truer and greater pleasure than ever, you will, we are confident, with your own hands, roll a cigarette again for yourself a cigarette machines can't imitate the mildest, the most fragrant, the mosr economical cigarette in the world. !: KZW YORK The"Makmgs" 'ffi h I-,' of a Nation i.aiita-f-'rftf.'.-f- By Lydia E.
