Superstition Notes and Odd Licensing Costs
A comic dialogue recalls a man who chose a drug store over a saloon after learning a liquor license would cost 31 300 while a druggist license runs 1. The tale claims he sells more liquor than three saloons in town. Also a note on how Switzerland gets its name from Schweitz, the trio of forest cantons that resisted Austria.
