Five per cent. is a liberal draw-down all right. Quite a few saloonkeepers whose only chance to get their gin- ‘ mills advertised in the papers is to have a fight or a fire {n them think they are beating the percentage to death if they pull out with feed and clothes money, “But the promoters of the saloon for uplifted songe= expect to cash in more than 6 per cent. In their shrink ing modesty that is all they intend to split up. What profit {s realized over 5 per cent. 1s to be used in framing up other soak symposiums with moral surroundings. In other words, they expect to extend the system of Dox-' ology taverns on velvet. “Can you beat it? Is there anything easier than | drawing 6 per cont. and putting the surplus away in another joint that will draw 5 per cent.? Assuming that the scheme turns out to be a success, it 1s only reasona- ble to suppose that in time the good Bishop's combina. + tion fire-water aud soda-water dispensaries will number twenty. Nineteen of these will have been established with the accumulative profits from Subway Tavern No, 1. Five per cent. from each—if the same amount of capital is used in each establishment—will amount to 100 per cent. per, annum on the original investment. The scheme looks like a mase-meeting of cinohes.”” “It'a funny,” commented the Clgar Store Man, ‘that | no ealoonkeeper ever thought of It before.” “You forget,” admonished the Man Higher Up, “that this {s the firat time a Bishop ever went into the saloon | business.” x ‘ The Alaskan New York.
