A grumbler tries to buy two fives in a drug store with a dime and clashes with a young clerk over whether two fives means two nickels or two five cent stamps. The amused clerk explains postal duties and stamps form part of sales, ending with the grumbler muttering. Nearby, farmers complain of a bunco with sawdust and breakfast food.
