Its a hot day In summer—next summer Your brow perspires, your skin is cracking with the warmth, and there's a dry, tick- ling sensation in your tlirout. You turn into the bigrest and most elaborate bar in town. Your senses tell you that noth- ing will quench that thirst but a big gtein of ice cold, foamy beer. The bartender, surprised, gives you an icy stare. "Nothing doing!" You argue, but in vain. The saloon doesn't sell beer, and there's no use kicking up a fuua about it. Your thirst ia finally quenched with a froth-covered goblet of delicious flavor. Tastes Just like an old-fashioned golden flzi. You pay for your drink, and start out, refreshed and tooled. "By the way, bartender." you ask over your shoulder, "what was that drink?" And the bartender ceases wip- ing the mahogany counter long enough to reply: "A cream grapejuice flstz, sir." • • • Sliuhi.' 1 on a downtown corner that, han nhvayg been considered the very hub of tiie retail district Is a big sa- loon.

Sicilif-. liad a big whole- sale Btnre at iltii and Pacific 25 years ago, in the same location now occupied by Fisher, the Shoe Man. When his wholesale busi- ness increased, he opened a sam- ple room adjoining, covering the rear half of the corner lota at 11th and Pacific, the front of which now contains the United Cigar store, and called it his annex Kver Rinre that time the Annex saloon has done business at the old stiinil. It has been on the most valuable corner of the city, yet its entrance, readied through a narrow areaway leading from Pacific avenue, has been so ob- scure that most persons would, never notice it. The saloon has passed through many hands. J. P. Chapman bought it from Stoke*, and then Oub Greenfield took it over, and later Mnrtin Angel purchased it. Ten years ago D. O. (Dick) Young and Marry O'Neill bought out Angel, and they have managed the big bar ever since. The Annex is one of the few Tacomn bars that will continue selling drinka after Jan. 1. Its proprietor are experimenting, but they believe thty will make a SUCCPfeb. Instead of whisky and brandy and beer and mixed drinks, the saloon will dispense grape juice ana •\u25a0l.o-Ju," the new drink of the Olympia Brewing Co., and Golden Foam, the non-alcoholic beverage of the Columbia Brew- Ing Co., and all manner of "dry" drinks. The saloon will not change in appearance. The sunie bartenders will be at work. The same fix- ture* will remain. There will be the same brass foot-rail and the same huge mirror. Women's trade will not be so- licited —although women will be free to enter the bar and put their foot on the rail and partake of a grape Juice highball if they wish. It will be a saloon in every sense of the word, except— There will not be a drop of alcoholic liquor inside the place And none will be allowed brought In. A man with "something on his hip" will not be allowed to enter the place and imbibe from his own supply. "We're trying an experiment, but we think it'll be a success,' declared Dick Young, one of the proprietors, today. "We believe that the men will still want a place to congregate, and that they take 'dry' drlnkß almost us read- ily as they took 'wet' ones before. Especially in worm weather. "Of course, the 'dry' drinks won't have the power to bring a man back for a second or third glass, as the alcoholic drinks do, because the patron's thirst will be quenched with one. But we're not afraid to take a chance on keep- ing the place going. "Remember this, though: We've figured our stock out so BtOM that there won't be a gallon of liquor in this place when mid- night conies Friday night. And there won't be any more booze here again until the law says there can be." \u2666 • • 'I In- Annex has a novel record of having caahed |>rob- niil> more checks ihim any otlier Tacoma saloon, lie- fore tlie law wn« pawned pro- rihltiug a saloon from rash- ing pny-checkti, flits one bar paid out cauli on 95.000 worth of |m«|mt each week, and on railroad paydays, as much as #M.OO« In • day.

WHICH DAY KFKKCTIVM Another question which is bothering some minds is just what time the dry law does take effect, anyway. The law says "from and afler Jan. 1, 1916." Some of the saloonkeepers are overlooking the "from" and taking th« "after," are asking that they be allowed to stay open New Year's day, and have asked the attorney general to so interpret the law.

U., by Mra. A. J. Albrlng, president. "Tliere are hundreda of car- lo-ads of liquor stored away in this state," said Mrs. Albrlng. \u25a0'Liquor is like a skunk. Its smell Rives it away. After the first of the year, if we smell liquor oh. a man's breath in a street car we can trace him down In that way." Mrs. Albring said there was one stumbling block to this scheme. According to reliable In- formation, nhe understood some liquor drxli-rn kept a preparation in their establishment by drink- ing which the odor of the liquor was killed. Here and in King county at least, the dry law will be enforced after midnight Friday night. And anyway the salooumen VIOLINISTS Strlnfr* .n. the ruont \u25a0 « rti.il purt of your violin.

tendent for the state Anti-Saloonleague for Eastern Washington,hag commenced the organizationof a system of checking all per-mits for liquor Issued by thecounty auditors of the 20 countiesIn that section of the state.
WHICH DAY KFKKCTIVMAnother question which is
bothering some minds is just whattime the dry law does take effect,anyway. The law says "fromand afler Jan. 1, 1916." Some ofthe saloonkeepers are overlookingthe "from" and taking th«"after," are asking that they beallowed to stay open New Year'sday, and have asked the attorneygeneral to so interpret the law.

SPOKANE, Dec. 29.—Tracingmasculiuo ll(|uor law violator*after the firm of the year by theirbreath, was the plan suggestedtoday at a meeting of the KranceeWlllard Union, of the W. 0. T. U.,by Mra. A. J. Albrlng, president.
"Tliere are hundreda of car-lo-ads of liquor stored away inthis state," said Mrs. Albrlng.\u25a0'Liquor is like a skunk. Its smellRives it away. After the first ofthe year, if we smell liquor oh.a man's breath in a street car wecan trace him down In that way."
Mrs. Albring said there wasone stumbling block to thisscheme. According to reliable In-formation, nhe understood someliquor drxli-rn kept a preparationin their establishment by drink-ing which the odor of the liquorwas killed.
Here and in King county atleast, the dry law will be enforcedafter midnight Friday night.
