The tax dodgers is his own worst
enemy. He is, and must be, man of
property and more interested in the
proper conduct of public affairs than
anyone else. When the tax rate in
creases on account of his failure to
pay his just share, he is sure to suffer
more injury in the long run than he
has gained by his lodging. The value
of mis- property decreases. The COM
munity starts on the down grade and
eventually he suffers enormous dam
age. He is seeking to rob his neigh
bors and cannot object If they turn
the tables. Taxes are necessary and
should be borne equally by all in the
community in proportion to what they
have. In fact, by the payment of
taxes community simply bands to-
gether to purchase for all what it
would be impossible for any one or
two individuals to secure for them
selves. The tax dodger is simply
sponging off of his neighbors and
should be held in as much contempt
as the bar-roomiloafer, whose highest
aim IN life is to bum a drink. One is
controlled by great greed for gold
and the other by an ungovernable ap-
petite.

American Monthly Review of Re-
views: The United States, after a
twelve.months halt in its trade &C.
tivity, has again moved forward, with
evidence on all sides of healthy indus
trial expansion. Two tests habitual-
ly applied by experts as a measure of
trade conditions In this country are
the exchange of bank checks as it's
clearing houses, showing the volume
Of business actually done, and the
consumption of manufactured iron,
showing the plans of general indus
try. If merchants, bankers and man.
ufacturers make fewer payments
through their banks, 1t means that
the sales and purchases in their in
dustry are reduced. If orders for iron
and steel diminish, 1t is a sign that
manufacturers, builders and trans.
portation companies forsee small bus
mess and are curtailing orders for
new machinery, new structural ma.
terial and new rails or cars. Each Of
these signs of the times foretold with
unpleasant clearness the reaction of
1903. The shrinkage in clearing
house exchanges, and the cutting in
two of the country's iron production,
pointed Enthusiastically to the coming
storm. But the storm passed over
rapidly. This season. bank checks
put through the country's clearing
houses have surpassed all records in
our history, rising in value 30 per
cent. over 1904. Iron production has
reached a magnitude twice that of
December, 1903, and never approach.

Art-Schooling for Americans II
Rome.


What the academy In Rome pro.
poses to do Is to provide the oppor.
tunity for an artist to cultivate him
self--tO give him the advantages of
cloistration for period long enough
for him to absorb the ideals of
the great art of the past,
and to stimulate his imagination and
his invention by diligent study and by
close acquaintance with the master
pieces with which Rome abounds in
overwhelming profusion. Rome has
been selected because there, more
than In any other place in the world,
the allied arts of architecture, Iculp.
ture and painting can be studied to
the best advantage and under the
most favorable circumstances, and
the sister art of music can be studi ed
to great profit. Besides the cloistra.
tration, which consists Of residence

with the uninterrupted pursuit of
studies under competent and sympa.
thetic direction, . certain amount OF
travel 10 also an important part Of
the curriculum. The period Of travel
varies, of course, according to the
branch Of the profession. Music, for
example, which u one of the depart
ments, ~ II 10 In various foreign
academies, requires more study away
from Rome than the other branches.

Probably thel most extraordinary
character in our American political
life to-day is the Hon. Timothy D.
Sullivan ("Big Tiny member from

careful study of his characters and
methods, which he has! prepared for
the June Cosmopolitan, calls him the
Modern Robin Hood !" but the reader
after laying down this amazing nara.
tive will conclude that the modern
politician has quite outdone the
famous highwayman. Indeed, one
must search among the Oriental ex.
travagances of "The Arabian Nights
to fine the equal of such lavish dis.
tribution of the spoils of corrupt
corporate tribute. Even to be Mr..
Sullivan's second cousin, says Mr..
Lewis, is worth ten thousand a year.

How I Got My Hearing
Back

By GEORGE II. WILSON

7 WAS once deaf mani
was SO deaf that / couldn't hear a
watch tick when held close against my
ear. The Deafness came on by degrees, and
first / hardly noticed it.
AS it grew l noticed my friends falling
away from me. Then my business chances
began fading out. 1t was too much trouble
to talk to a Deaf man.
Now want You to know that was am
bilious and had made large plans for my
own future. / knew had the Brains to sue
coed, if could only get over that terrible
curse of Deafness. 1ts seemed to shut me
out from all my Opportunities.
My Deafness set me worrying and think
ing hard for means of Cure.
For nearly two years haunted the offices
of Ear-Doctors. Then / tried about every
Quack remedy, and my me ney melted as fast
as my chances for making more vanished
The end of it came at last, and had to work
out my own cure:
That was my salvation! First, / read
nearly every book printed about the ear.
Then made a model of the hearing part of
the Ear. Then l tried all kinds of expert
mentS on this artificial Ear.
Whenever l worked out any device that
looked promising on this artificial Ear. l
tried it on my own living Ear. Night after
night / worked on my experiments, with
feverist hope and anxiety, for the result
meant everything to me in this world. l am

At last l hit upon the right idea. and I

which he never had seen, and to the visitors
establishment translated the shrieks of a cat in
the courtyard. Upon Hoopers suggestion he
again sought TO find Maggie Hutchinson, and
called up an Atlantic liner outward bound from
New York. The next evening he was mentally
transported to New-York again He awoke with
an exclamation about the villainy of a dramatic
agent named Steindal
Karl explained that Constantine and Steindal
in New-Nork decided to make Maggie Hutchin-
son an offer to go on concert tour, Constantine
evidently having an Interior motive. SO intent
was Karl in listening to the plot that he aroused
in the Armenian $ mind vivid remembrance of
the time he was rescued from the sea- and Con-
Stant:ne fell over the table, Shreking OF sharks.
Karl received a telegram from his mother ask
ing him to meet the HutchnsOns upon their
arrival in London. After astonishing the hotel
the voyagers Maggie related conversation
between Steindal and Constantine which she
triegUomicdW overheard coincidentally with
Karl experience.
Maggie went into feiegn0mfc condition and
overheard Constantine planning to go to London
for the purpose of numbering Karl. Grer had
learned the same thing, and SO he, his father and
the author went to Liverpool to meet the steamer
Constantine While the vessel was still
in the stream Karl exclaimed that the Armenian
had jumped overheard, and that he had impelled
him to do il. Constantine had done SO.
Maggie sent Karl telegram that she was leav
ing England and babe him farewell.
Constantine left Maggie all his property. The
Hutchinsons settled in Italy.
Five years later the author was summoned to
London by the elder Grier, who said that Karl
was causing trouble his arranged" be-
