One of the missionary heroines of the
world Is Miss Annie Taylor. a Presby-
terrain missionary to Tibet. Wealthy
and cultivated, she decided in spite Of
the opposition Of her parents to give
herself to missions. She studied medi-
cine and worked as a nurse in hospital
to prepare herself for the work She
also acquired a knowledge of dentistry.
Largely at her own expense she went to
China, assumed native costume, settle J
on the borders of Tibet and began to
learn the language Of that fierce people
among whom Christian missionaries
have not yet obtained a foothold-
Having thoroughly prepared herself,
she mado an entrance into the country,
and there she has lived for some time
She has been exposed to the most terri
bic dangers, but the people of Tibet
have spared a woman where they would
not have spared man. The chief sew
eral times tried to poison her. She was
made prisoner. She was exposed. I'M

The Daughters and the DANES.

There Is tremendous rivalry between
the two organizations of women known
as the Daughters Of the Revolution and
the Colonial Danes. 1t is based upon
antiquity of lineage, as to be a Dame
takes few more ancestors than it does
to be q Daughter. Not long ago at q
woman's club reception a stranger from
the west asked to be presented to any
Daughters who might happen to be
present Some one, who was ignorant
of the nice distinction between the two
orders. forthwith introduced her to a
woman who, at the word Daughter.

Objections to the Income Tax.

Now an income tax is the very essence
of personal taxation. Notwithstanding
the decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States that it is not direct tax,
it comes to the taxpayer most directly
and this is the first reason why human
nature does not like it. A second and
more important reason why a general in
come tax powerfully antagonizes popul-
ar sentiment is that its efficient admins
tration, or revenue productiveness, re-
quires that every person lab de to taxa
ton shall make to government official
an exhibit of the financial condition Of
his estate, business, or profession. Hence
the successful administration of an in
come tax involves and requires the use
of arbitrary and inquisitorial methods
and agencies which, perfectly consistent
and harmonious with despotism, are
antagonistic TO and incompatible
with the formation and maintenance of
u free government. - David Wells in

A New Way to Deal with the Liquor
Traffic.


The Scandinavian system of regulat-
ing the liquor traffic, known as the Goth
enburg system, is the next plan that will
be vigorously attempted in the United
States. Prohibition and high license
have each been tried in different sections
of the country, and for brief periods,
without finally solving the liquor ques-
ton. The Gothenburg system is now
likely to be tried, first perhaps in Massa-
chusetts. This system eliminates the
possibility of personal profit from the
sale of liquor, and throws many restric-
tions around it. The income is used
for various public purposes, and the sale
of liquor is under the direct supervision
OF responsible men of high character.
Social retormers in every part of the
country are giving it close study with
reference to our American conditions.
An ardent believer in this system is Dr.
E. R. L. Gould, who is one of our fore
most students of social subjects, and who
last year went to Norway to make a
PERSONAL study of this system. DR.. G ould
writes in the March number of s'The
Forum" definite explanation Of how it
would work when applied to American
conditions.

How to Divorce Politics and the Liuuo
Traffic.

The Gothenburg system of regulating
the liquor traffic would help wonderful
~ to accomplish reformation of poll
tics. The divorce would be absolute
and permanent. Politicians OF modern
stamp do not concern themselves verv
much with things out of which they can
not make money. A large revenue now
comes to them from the liquor interest,
AID with this cut off they would leave
the system to run itself, upon finding
that they could not exploit it for private
gain. If All American adaptation of the
dothenburg plan can succeed in break
ing up the alliance between liquor and
politics, besides abolishing the saloon as
we know it to-day, it will have rendered
two such supreme services that little else
need be demanded.-E. r. Gould in
