Some people have ali idea that individ-
uals deposit money in savings banks to
evade taxation, and that such persons are
tax dodgers. This is not so. The savings
banks pay the tax, and II is deducted nom
the interest on the money deposited; and
this tax that is paid by the banks goes to
pay State expenses which would other
wise have to be paid by tax on the grand
list of the towns. So a person who has
money in savings bank really bears his
just share OF the burden just as much as
il he put it in the list for local taxation.
The law for the taxing of savings banks
and some other corporations is wise
measure and meets with the approval OF
the people generally.

BRby's Hammock,

How many of my sister mothers have
discovered what an advantage it is to
possess hammock? To any one who is
obliged to economic space it may be
made into a nice, soft and cool bed at
night, while during the day you can use
it yourself to rest in while baby is out
or fold it up and put it away. In order
that baby may not fall out, take a long
tape or ribbon and tie it across twice or
thrice loosely, and the child is secure.
Mothers who have accustomed their
children to being rocked to sleep will
find baby willing to submit to being
rocked in the hammock, thus giving rest
to already too tired arms. One mother
to whom l suggested it said to me, Il
just sit down in my chair now, tie rib
bon to the side of the hammock and pull
it, rocking baby to sleep far more COM
fortably and coolly than in my arms" 1t
is worth a trial. Hammocks are very
inexpensive.

How to Sleep.

Place the right hand on the forehead
and the left at the back Of the neck while
counting 40. The rationale Of this proc
ess is thus explained by DR.. Salisbury:
The palm Of the right hand and the fore
part Of the body are both plus Tor posi-
tive) magnetic poles. The left palm and
the back part of the body are both mi
nus Tor negative) poles. Like polas re-
pei, and by thus placing the palms Of the
hands over the various centers Of plex-
uses a vital current Is directed back into
the body, its normal circuit Is re-estab-
hshed, and its energies are guided and
evenly distributed among the organs sit
uate along its course. The physical and
mental systems will become passive, con-
tented and comfortable, all parts work
ing together for the common good. The
result will be composure and recupera-
ton. All distracting, harassing, melan-
choly imaginings and gloomy forebod-
ings will have passed away. The stom-
ach and bowels and all their glandular
appendages will renew their healthy
functions, while digestion and sssimila-
ton, previously at a standstill, will go on
normally. Oyerwork and improper food
are at the bottom of our sleeplessness.
DR.. Salisbury warns US that 1.-The cere-
Drum should not be permitted to work
and consume vitality for more than 10
hours in the "a on an average. The Il
should be spent in recreation, eating and
refreshing sleep. We should live less in
the garnet of our house and more in the
kitchen"

frcestone ut all affected was replaced by
Potomac marble. Still the capitol was
an odd looking affair, resembling. says
Washington Irving, who saw it in this
stage, two imitation Greek temples with
very attenuated connection. The city

March 81. 1918, Charles Bulinch OF
Boston laid the foundation of the center

this was the capitol of the United States

Davis brought forward a proposition To
build the present north and south wings,
and at his request Robert Mills, artist

statue of Freedom was placed on the
summit and saluted by 455 guns fired
from the forts around Washington. In
1864 the dome and eastern portiCo of the
north wing were completed. In 1866
the stone work of the capitol was pro

brother artists had completed their mag
nifcent designs. The total cost of the
capitol is $14, 500. 900, including the ter

works of art have made the total about
