The Married Man,

A married man always carries his
condition with him, like trademark
Anybody of average discernment can de-
tect him at glance. He does not pinch
his toes with tight shoes. He does not
scent himself with violets. He never
parts his hair in the middle. He ekeeps his
seat in the horse car whena pretty girl,
laden with bundles, comes in; he knows
that his wife wouldn't approve of his
rising. He does not get up firtations
with the good-looking saleswoman
where he buys his gloves; he remem-
bers that little birds are flying all
around telling tales, and he has a hor-
ror for curtain lectures; somehow. mar
ried men never seem to arrive at that
state Of beatitude where they do ap-
preciate the kind of literary perform
ances known as curtain lectures. The
married man has come to that stage
when he is convinced that the way his
uecktie hangs may not be any more i'm
portant than his souls salvation. He
knows to certainty that true happi-
ness does not depend on the amount of
starch in his shirt bosom, but he will
have to have been at least three times
welded before he will be able to be
reconciled to collar-band two sizes
small or one size large. The man who
can smile at fate when it swoops down
upon him in the shape of an ill-fttine
collar-band is nearly ready for canon
ization.-N. Y. Weekly.

Kalakaua,s Ancestry.

The death of King Kalakaua in a
foreign land, twenty-one hundred miles
from his kingdom, recalls the death OF
his predecessor, Kamehameha H., in
London, nearly sixty-six years ago.
Kamehameha II. succeeded his father,
Kamehameha 1. the Great, in 1910,
when the old native religion was be.
ginning to give way before the whites.
American missionaries arrived in 1920,
and soon thereafter the king abolished
the tabu and idolatry. On November
27, 1928, the king, who had long desired
to travel, sailed for London on British
man-of-war, accompanied by his queen,
Kamehamalu, and suite. They were
received by George ~. and attracted
much attention in London. Early In
July, 1924, they were attacked by q
malignant form Of measles, and on the
18th the king died; the queen dice
shortly afterward. The man-of-wal
Blonde was detailed to carry the re
mains Of the king and queen to theil
kingdom, and on May 6. 1925, it arrived
at Honolulu, where the dead sovereig Il,
were buried.-Chieago News

Of course no one but crank or man

college boys for making a noise, but
there was little man at one of the ta-
bles who was just mean enough to OBJ

every minute or two the young fellows
laid aside their champagne long enough
to interrupt with a song.
Finally the little sourfaced man grew
desperate, and. calling the proprietor of

the reply.
But the little man wasn't satisfied,
and when four of the young fellows got

Is All Property a Trust7

In a sermon on Socialism, delivered
by Rev. Lyman Abbott to a wealthy
Boston congregation on Sunday. Feb
ruary Is, the pastor of Plymouth church
said:
Another great proof is that property
is trust. Henry George himself is not
radical enough to suit me. He says
there should be no private property in
land. say there should bo no private
property at all. And yet l am not
socialist, not even Christian so
cialist. My doctrine Is easy to under
stand "
DIR. Abbott is right in saying that
Henry George is not radical enough to
accept such doctrine, though we think
he misuses the word radical in this con-
nection. A radical, properly speaking,
is one who goes to the roots of things.
and Henry George does go to the root OF
the existing inequality in the distribu-
tion of the products Of labor, when he
declares that the source of the evil is
the power given by law to few to
exact from the many payment for the
privilege of access to the opportunities,
through which alone wealth can be Gre
ated.
The equal rights of all men to the use
of land being once recognized, Mr..
George claims that the producer has a
right to the thing that he has produced
out of natural materials, to which he
has rightful access. Mr.. George, how
ever, is political economist, while DR..
Abbott. in declaring that there should
be no private property at all, speaks, we
suppose, as preacher who claims that
God not merely gives to the people the
earth they inhabit, but the powers that
enable them to labor, and that they
hold their natural powers, natural op-
portunities, and the products of both as
trust from their Creator This is a
doctrine that appeals to the individual
conscience, and it can not in the nature
of things, be enforced by law. There
is, therefore, no necessity for any con-
troversy between single tax men, who
are seeking to rewrite the laws of the
land concerning property, and DR.. Abb
bott, who is intoxicating what he be-
licves to be the lesson of duty to men
who have obtained their property hon
| estly.

Taxation in New York.

The New York Times in an editorial
on the various tax bills introduced in
the present legislature, says:
The most sensible bill that has been
introduced is that presented in the as
sembly by Mr. Stein, ''by request, pro-
posing kind Of local option as to the
assessment of property for taxation. 1t
provides that assessors shall state in
| separate columns the value of land exclu-
sive of improvements and the value Of
land with improvements and gives coun-
ty authorities the right to levy all taxes
| upon land alone; upon land with the inn
provements thereon, that is, upon real
estate; upon personal property alone,
or upon the assessed value of land, Inn
provements and personal property. Due
provision being made for the equitable
contribution of each county to the reve-
| nues of the state, there are many rea-
sons why the control of assessment and
taxation might be left to the local au-
thorities. The conditions differ widely
in different counties, and the difference
is especially great between the great
commercial towns and the rural COM
munities. A method Of assessment
which is entirely practicable in one may
be very badly adapted to the other. In
this city the amount raised for local
purposes is about seven times as great
as that raised for state purposes. Pro
yided the city contributes its just share
to the state treasury, there is no reason
why it should not be permitted to raise
the money for the purpose and for its
own expenses in the way best adapted
to the protection and promotion of its
own interests

ton below, and caused copies Of it,
