Talk about your buidin's
That's het up by steam
Give me the old oak fire
Where the old folks used to dream.
The rickety dog irons
One sided as could be;
The ashes banked with Eaters
That was roastin' there fer me.
The dog on one side, drowsin'
Or barkin' nigh the door;
The kitten cuttin' capers
With the knittin' on the floor.
An me little tow head
BY mammy's side at night;
With both my cheeks Albumin
From the red flames leapn' bright.
These steam.het buildin's make me
just weary for the blaze
That was heap more comfortable
In my childhoods nights and days
An I'd give the finest heater
In the buildin's het by steam,
For the old.time chimbley corner

A DOZEN hens, we'll cared for, at this
season will produce twice as many eggs
as flock of similar number which is
neglected. In fact, on hundreds Of
farms where large focks may be seen
no eggs are secured in winter, simply
because the hens are neglected. An
egg is composed of several important
constituent materials, lack of any one
of them rendering it impossible for the

THE income TAX MATTER
Officials Hopeful for a Favorable
Decision
JUSTICE JACKSON GOES HOME
If the Decision is Upheld Delinquents

Member Of the Court Is Responsible for a
Statement That There viii Probably
Be Two Opinions

WASHINGTON, May 13. Judge Jack
son called at the White House today and
paid his respects to the president. He ex-
poets to leave for Tennessee tonight or t.
morrow in the expectation OF returning
here in time for the October t.rm OF the
court and his house is being put in re-
pair in anticipation OF his permanent
residence here at that time.
The officials of the government inter.
ested in revenue are much more hopeful
Of favorable decision, and W hile former
ly expressin. the belief that the law
would be upset. now say that the facts as
in references to Saturdays conference of
the supreme court was given in the Asso-
cated Press dispatche. make them co nfi-
dent that Justice jackson has voted in ia
vor Of the constitutionality OF the law. at
least as regards the points on which the
court was divided.
The income tax returns already rece ived
at the treasury department are being
classified and recorded Although the
officials are extremely reticent on the sub.
ject, it is believed that the rent exemp-
tions will amount to 50 per cent of the
whole The whole number Of returns
made under the law is approximately
1, 500, 900. and the estimate is made that
these represent no more than rs per cent
of the persons legally liable under the
law.
If the recent decision of the court is sus-
tanned next Monday. as is now regarded as
altogether probable, the del elinquents will
certainly be proceeded against as rapidly
as possible, and it is thought that the 10
per cent penalty imposed by the law will
not be remitted in any case. 1t is asserted
that the persons who have failed to make
returns have done 50 with clear under
standing of the law and in many cases
have refused to comply with it on legal
advice, preferring to take their chances
of being compelled to pay the penalty.
1t Is learned definitely that n conclusion
was reached at Saturdays consultation of
the supreme court and that it is conf
IDENTITY expected to have the opinion in
the case ready for announcement next
Monday. No authoritative statement as
secured. of course. but all that can bo
learned goes to corroborate the Associated
Press report OF Saturday that the indica-
tions favored the upholding OF the law on
the points that rem lin.
member OF the court is responsible
for the statement that there will probably
be two opini MS but would not go to the
extent of in licatin, on whica 81 10 the

The present intention is to make the
opinions comparatively brief. They will
cover only the questions left undecided
in the first decision. as to whe ther the
void provisions cover the whole act,
whether the act as it affects incomes from
personal property as such is unconstitu-
tional because it provides for direct taxa
ton of them, ana whether the tax is in
valid on account of want of uniformity.
The understanding no is that Justice
Harlan will prepare the majority opinion
sustaining the law.
The court at this session will render
opinions on a large number Of other cases
which have been argued. Adjournment
for the summer will not be reached, how
ever. until the following Monday, the

In the cause of the New Woman. Mrs.
Stanton has felt that the worst foe to her
advancement was tho misconception OF
the present Bible as regards woman.
Some of the advanced women of New
York felt as Mrs. Stanton did and Joined
with her in the preparation of new ver-
sion Of the book of books. Mrs. Stanton
said to the little group of women gath
cred about her when She first broached
the question of Bible for women alone:
Sufficient attention has not been given
to the position of women in the divine
book. The various revisions have treated
with scant consideration those portions
relating to women. In the agitation to
secure equal rig is and privileges for
women. the Bible is constantly referred
to. to show the inferiority of the sex.
This being so, 1t is absolutely necessary
that the misconceptions as to the attitude
of the Bible toward woman, arising from
wrong translations and interpretations,
should be corrected"
1t is supposed the book will be COM
pleted this year.

Commences to Talk
CHARGES INSPIRED BY PIQUE
The Recalled Consul Says Admiral
Mea,ie Was Arbitrary
Tried to Impress tn. Venezuela Officials That
the Visit of the Fleet Was More
Than Courtesy

WASHINGTON, May l3. The phase of
the important pending question between
England and Venezuela, in which the
United States has intervened to ask arb-
tration. is involved in the demand of the
state department for the resignation of
United States Min lister Hazelton OF Vene-
zuela on serious charges made by Ad-
miral Meade.
Minister Hazelton regards the charges
as inspired by piqIe, and as al evidence
Of this he cites political repre- sntations
of direct and indirect character by
which he says Admiral Meade sought to
impress the Venezuelan government and
public that the visit of the United States
squadron was something more than a
courtesy and involved political assur-
ances that the United States was about to
lend the strength of its navy to MAINTAIN
Venezuela against Great Britain.
The minister says This impression char
acterized all the adnliral's actions while
the United States fleet was in Venezuelan
waters. The govern ment officials, who
were we'll informed OIL the pacific charac-
ter of the visit, were surprised that the
impression should be- given that there
was political significance in the visit.
Mr.. Hazelton says this course aroused
decided feeling of disapproval among the
government authorities. They did not.
he says. care to be patronzed, when. as
they understood the facts the visit of the
fleet was an incident to its being in
southern waters and was not intended as
evidence of the position of the United
States on the international question in
voved.
The minister today referred to Admiral
Mead's addresses as greeting more than
an expression of the usual official courte-
sizes, and declared it conveyed the general
impression that the I'm nlted States sena-
tors were there as an evidence of political
policy of the United Staes.
1t was stated at the White House TODAY
that the action taken in the case of Min
sterilization would not be recalled and
that Mr.. Hazleton would not return to
Venezuela as minister ,of the United
States.
WASHINGTON. May 13.-The navy
department officials have no information
to give to the press yht concerning
the case of Admiral Mea lie. Secretary
Herbert declined to say anything, but
intimated that he might probably have
something to make public concerning the
matter tomorrow.
