4 FRRNoH NOTION,

The bicycle claims all civilized coun-
 tries for It's own, and its claim has
 become so pressing in France that a
 law fully recognizing the claim Is pro-
 posed. Some of it's provisions would
 fit the situation in this country as well
 as in. France. The French plan pro-
 vides that the present tax on bicycles
 is to be abolished. Every pedestrian
 will be required to procure at the
 "maire'' of his "arrondissement" per nit to walk These permits must be renewed annually and fee will be charged for them. With each permit will be issued a numbered metal plate which the pedestrian, while in the street, must always wear on the front of his hat band. Every pedestrian shall supply himself with bell and a whistle which he must sound when meeting or passing a bicyclist on the sidewalk and always while crossing a street, whether or not a bicyclist is in sight at that time. At night he must also carry edlanterns on his breast and back. No pedestrian within the limits of city or incorporated village shall walk more rapidly than at the rate of two miles an hour. France shall be entirely leve1ed so that the public may be saved the annoyance and fatigue of hill climbing. A man with a straight back shall be regarded as suspicious person and kept con- stantly under surveillance by the po- lice. Any pedestrian who by reason of his awkwardness. negligence or being alive, shall, by getting himself run over, or otherwise disturb, impede, annoy, or a cycler. or cause damage or risk of damage to rider or wheel, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemean- or and punished by fine of 5000 francs. On a second conviction he shall be imprisoned for life.
 France will be a good country for the and wheelwomen when this plan is carried out.

Cat-Boat Racing.
Fro m Harper's To ung People.i

tFrom Harper's Young Peoplet
 Cat-boats. pure and simple, should never race with any other rig. Cat
 boats with a. jib-such as are used so much along the southern coast of Mas sachusetts, Rhode Island and Connect icut-are an entirely different kind of boat, though they are generally known under the title of cat-boat. They are for deep-sea sailing; they stand heavy weather, and, on the other hand, they are less susceptible to the influence of light breezes and calm. The harbor cat-boats should always be confined to harbor racing They are not built for a choppy sea, and consequently do not sail well in a large bay or in the open sea. They are built low in the water, usually have no "house" on them, and the sail area is much larger in propor- tion to the water-line measurement than in the case of the cat-boat with its small jib. Quite different from these two is the small "jib-and-mainsail" boat so much used to-day In racing, and quite distinct from any one of the three already mentioned. lt IS, per haps, one of the most fascinating little crafts ever made for racing, and goes by the name of fin-keel, A great mis- take often made by a club of boys, or even men, each owning different kinds of boats, is that they are so anxious to race that they either all enter, and each does the best he can, or they make some impossible attempt at time allowance. It is far better if there are in any sea, town only eight boats, and two of each kind already mentioned, that the race should be divided into four parts, com posed of two each, and that courses should be laid out for each class. These four classes will be far more ex- citing and interesting, and will devel- op much greater skill and show better results than one race including the four.

The Income-Tax Decision.


 The decision of the income-tax case as embodied in the various opinions, is one of the curiosities of judicial litera- ture. It must increase the country s contempt for the law-makers who planned and carried through the stat ute, while it certainly does not increase the public respect for the court that uttered it. Six of the justices held that the tax on the rents and profits of real property is unconstitutional. the reason given being that tax on real property is direct, and that, therefore, a tax on rents issuing from real property is un- constitutional That which results from property partalses of the nature of it's origin. If the origin of income is not to be taxed by the United States un- der the constitution because such tax would be direct, and if congress cannot accomplish By indirection that which it is prohibited from doing by direction it cannot levy tax on real property under the pretence of imposing it on it's rents.
 Very few lawyers will question the soundness of this proposition. It is true that Justices White and Harlan insist that the income from real prop erty may be taxed. but their opinion will carry little weight compared with that of the six justices who agreed. But now comes the strange feature of the decision. Two of these six judges find that an income tax may be levied and collected on incomes derived from all other forms of property except state, county and municipal bonds, United States bonds being also exempt from taxation. As Justice White showed, this exemption of the rents of real es- tate Is strained and illogical interpre- tation of the constitution. The tax on real estate Is direct because it falls di- rectly on the owner but so does the tax on personal property. Logically, tax on any property is a direct tax, and it follows that if a tax on the income aris- ing from real property is direct, and therefore unconstitutional unless it is apportioned according to population, a tax on personal property is also uncon- This effort to make a dis tinction between real and personal property is unsound, and must be at to the eager, 1awyer-lihe desire of Justices Brown and Shiras to stand by the earlier decisions of the court. Justice White, who laid down the doctrine that congress has un- limited power of taxation, except that of taxing exports, nevertheless served a good purpose in pointing out not only that the distinction between real and property is unsound, but that the two justices who made the distinc- tion had not really stood by the deci- sions.

 Another of the cooperative features of the union will be the establishment of savings banks and the encourage ment of economy and individual ac- cumulation. Each member of the union is to be stimulated to save for himself and become a capitalist on his own ac- count. No person is to be debarred from joining this union and the doors are open to everybody, save that mem bers of monopolistic corporations can not hold office in it. One of it's greatest objects is to establish a means for bringing about friendly arbitration be- tween employers and employees. It in tends to make no war on other organi- zations, or upon employers, nor will it foment or encourage strikes. All these methods it looks upon as disastrous to all concerned and conducive only to evil.
 Such an organization as this will have strong support in public opinion, If it is well managed it can do much good.

How to Grow Thin. From Harper's Bazar.1

It is all very well to laugh at the ab-
 surdity of signing over growing old, but
 there are very few women who are suf-
 floiently philosophical not to be little
 hagrlned at the advance of years show
 ing itself plainly in face and figure.
 There would seem to be two distinct types of American women--those who
 grow stout as they grow older and
 those who grow thin. It is all very well to say that the face looks better when it is plump than when it is thin, but every pound of additional advoirdu- pois certainly adds to a womans age in appearance at least, while the wo- man who does not grow stout rarely changes much in appearance from thir- ty-five to fifty. There are many phy- sical reasons which induce added flesh, and we are told that the figure settles as one grows older; but it is this very settling that women are axious to avoid, and there is really no necessity for it whatever.
 Steady banting has the desired re- suit in so far as the reducing of flesh is concerned but there other results far from satisfactory which are apt to accompany it, and very often i'll health and irritable nerves are the outcome of trying to grow thin. The avoiding of starchy food is a simple matter, and by not eating potatoes and bread very of- ten an astonishing difference in weight Is soon perceived, Certain salts, which, however, should never be taken except under the orders of ones physician, will sometimes start a disposition to lose flesh which, if followed with giving up potatoes and bread, will work marvel lous results.
 Incidence, one of the greatest factors in increasing weight, lies within the power of every woman to correct. 1t is so much the fashion now to take ex- ercise that there Is no excuse for being lazy. It is impossible for some women to walk a great deal, but certain amount of regular exercise will bene- fit even the most delicate. Sitting in- variably produces fat, and fat just where one doesn't want it--about the stomach and hips. When one begins to lose flesh-and this can be ascertain ed by being weighed every week-a lit tie massage will be found a great help. The masseuse, if she understands her business, will soon be able to tell where the superfluous flesh is, and will direct her enarpies tO tha Darticl1IaT n1ace pr

 4 NEW LdROR UNION.

It has long been evident that the
 old labor unions have largely failed to
 carry out the purposes for which they
 were organized, and many of the
 thoughtful among the worlds workers
 are casting about for better and more efficient ways of helping themselves
 and their brethren. One of the latest plans is named the American Indus-
 trial Union and some of its features are well worth the attention of all in- terested in social problems.
 The new union is intended to embrace
 all classes of workmen, from the man
 who works with his hands to the man
 who works with his brain. Its under- lying idea is to adjust labor to the
 demand for it, and if there is too great
 supply at one point, to carry 1t to
 another where the demand is greater.
 The law of supply and demand would
 always keep labor employed If labor could quickly respond to the demand,
 but there are always artificial obstruc- tions in the way. Time and space must be overcome and it is only organized effort that can overcome them. It is the object of this union to bring the supply where the demand Is most im- perative and adjust the conditions as equitably as possible. For this purpose employment bureaus are to be organ ized and by means of a general and widespread cooperation it Is believed that this object of the union can be successfully accomplished.
 In another respect the union expects to achieve great and beneficial results, and that is in regard to the displace- ment of labor. Men and women are often thrown out of employment be- cause of the introduction of machinery, compelling them to seek other voca- tions. The Industrial Union meets this by establishing in various places what will be called "colonies." Tracts of land are to be acquired and families settled thereon, where with but little delay livelihood at least, may be gained. The funds of the organization are to be largely employed in the pur- chase of these lands. These may af- ford either permanent or temporary homes for members of the union, and will give them at least a breathing space to devise new plans for them

CONCENTRATIONS.
Good Roads Wanted.


 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER: I was much interested in the recent editorial in the Journal and Courier on Good Roads" It is high time that Connecticut showed 1lttle public spirit along this line. Wallingford has been afflicted with poor roads since time be- gan, and the patience of long suffering public is utterly exhausted. Each spring the refuse of the gutter is drawn upon the roadbed, and our highways are said to be fixed. We have an abund ance of excellent material on either side of our town for stoning our roads and putting them in first-class condition, but the powers that have been have seen fit to follow the penny wise and pound foolish" plan of scraping back onto the roads material that was better for the compost heap than for road wear, and all because it seemed to cost less.
 An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" If some of the money now going to Humane societies was ex- pended on our roads 1t would be much better for the public as well as for mans most faithful servant, the horse.
 Wallingford is a beautiful town, easy of access, a place to which people of wealth and leisure delight to come dur ing the summer months, We have pleasant drives, but our roads are disgrace to a civilized community. The Journal and Courier may be sure of attentive and appreciative readers whenever it has anything to say for "good roads"

places. Of course massage is an ex- pensive luxury, but 1t is not thing that needs to be continued, and a few hours will often work wondrous change. For instance, one hour three times a week for a fortnight has been known to re- duce the size of the waist half an inch. Standing erect with the hands pressed well down on the hips, bending the body forward, backward, and sideways sew eral times. twice a day, will also work off accumulated fat about the. hips and stomach. But this exercise must be conscientiously persevered in.

 Your teachers no doubt often ask you to read books, as side helps, sup plementary reading, in your serious studies. Never feel that time is wasted when spent in this occupation. One gets the atmosphere of g. period from the books which were written about 1t, as, for instance, if you are studying the history of the French Revolution, your instructor may ask you to read A Tale of Two Cities, by Charles Dickens. The novel will throw a fiash-light on the time and the men and women, which will make the swiftly moving events very vivid in their impression on your mind The several books of Mrs. Charles, especially The Chronicles of the Schonberg-Co Family, are valu- able, not only as stories, but as helping you to understand the period of the Re- formation, The Draytons and the Dave nants doing for the Reformation in England what the Schonberg- Gotta books do for that in Gehmany.
 If you delight in exciting tales read The White Company, by A. Conan Doyle; or A Gentleman of France, by Stanley J. Weyman; or My Lady Ro- tha, also by MT. Weyman. Micah Clarke, by Dr. Doyle, is full of battle and siege and moving incident and it is an error to fancy that only boys find pleasure in this thrilling sort of story. Girls like it quite as well. Can l not persuade you to go back little and read Ivanhoe, by Sir Walter Scott, and Quentin Outward, and Tales of a Grandfather, by the same great novel, ist?

THE MULE CURE.

New cures are common nowadays, Great men and small men are searching lndustrlously for them, and some of their discoveries are astonishing. One of the latest is that a serum obtained from mules will cure erysipelas. This Is Indeed a corker. It Is easy to under stand why horse extract is deadly foe of diphtheria, but the connection be- tween mules and erysipelas is not en- tirely plain. But there is no doubt that it exists, for Science has said so, and Science is as infalllble as the bible.
 The world can well rejoice over these discoveries that extracts of animals are good cures for human beings. The Chinese, an old and wise race, have long perceived the medicinal value of animal extracts, although they have not, in all their thousands of years, made such progress in making and ap- plying them as the modern scientists have. It is to be hoped that the new practice will not be found to have draw backs, and if any are found 1t is es- pecially to be hoped that in curing dis ease einhuman beingsby animal extracts the nature of the beast from which the extract is taken will not be transmitted to the persons dosed with the extract. It would be a, great pity, for instance, if man cured of erysipelas by extract of mule should be made more mulish than he was before.

F1IHION NOTES.
Long Wave the Picture Hat
D. M. RARTHoLoMRW.

Picture hats are finished about the brim with great waving frills of crust colored chiffon piped along the edge with little roll of black velvet. and this makes such a waving swirl of soft ness about the face that the rest of the hat hardly shows. Yet the rest of the hat is a wonder of wide waving black plumes, and while this is the chief beauty of the picture hat, all this won der and swirl is really of no conse- quence, because of the amazingly pret-
