GRADUATED INCOME TAXATION,

The Washington correspondent of
the Record-Herald remarks, in con
lection with the reported intention OF
the president to recommend In his
message to congress the enactment Of
4 permanent progressive inheritance
tax law. that in the discussion rtha;
Is sure TO ensue the experience Of
Great Britain with her death duties,
so-called, and her tax on incomes win
be largely drawn on in support of tine
proposal. BY an interesting coinci-
lence a London cable announces that
4 select parliamentary committee has
submitted favorable report on the
pending suggestion to introduce the
principle OF graduation in the present
British income tax.
Many months ago Mr.. Asquith,
chancellor of the exchequer, ex-
pressed his belief In graduation as
well as in the recognition of the diff
ference between earned and unearned
incomes, or, more strictly. between
incomes and earned by labor In indus
try or professional life and incomes
earned by accumulated capital. The
select committee that was appointed
TO inquire into the subject had at its
head Sir Charles Dixie. a strong rad
lcal. and the public fully expected
from ii an Endorsement of the Asquth
Ideas.
According to the very brief cable.
the report goes long way toward
| satisfying those who are demanding
progressive or graduated taxation. 1t
finds that graduation is practicable in
incomes not exceeding 5000. and for
all incomes In excess of s25,00O II
| recommends surtax, though, appar-
emily. not a progressive one. It also
finds that incomes not exceeding $751;
/ 900 can be differentiated as regards
| their source. The object of dlfferen-
tiation, OF course. Is TO relieve the
middle and Industrious classes to
some extent from the heavy burdens
to which they have been subjected
since the Boer war and impose a
larger part of the national taxes on
the possessors of exceptional for
tunes. in harmony with the ability
to pay" principle. The present cab
met is practically pledged to such
differentiation.
In one sense the British income tax
Is already graduated" but the grad
nation is indirect and unrecognized
All incomes Of $500 and under pay no
tax at all On incomes above that
amount but under $4,000 an allowance
is made of ss00-that Is, the tax Is
levied on the income less $500. On
incomes exceeding $1,000. but not
above $500. $3.50 is allowed. On in
comes between $4,000 and $1,000 the
allowance is only $3.50. There is no
abatement on any income in excess OF
$500.
These differences in the abate
ments spell differences in the rate
per pound, SO that the tax is not
: strictly proportional. But the friends
OF graduation demand tax frankly
and avowedly progressiye.-Record

True German Style.

Again comes the request for some
thing German" The ideas are gladly
given, but not the recipes for the
cakes, as have been unable to obtain
them. However, very satisfactory sub
stltutes may be made with coffee cake
from an up-to date bakers shop for the
beloved German kuchen." If the
baker will put sliced apples over the
cake you will be in good German style
when you serve it. Then they make a
custard pie either individual or in a
regular pie tin, with canned cherries
stirred through the custard. Seed
cakes and nut cookies are much in ia
vor and at all times coffee, in fact,
first, last and between times it is
served. You may call the affair a
''kaffee klatch," in other words, coffee
and chatter" Use the German flag
and colors for decorations. The red,
black and white are always effective
and very pretty lanterns may be made
from frames of wire on pasteboard bot
toms and tops covered with alternat-
ing strips of red, white and black
paper. Small stems filed with nuts
or bonbons make appropriate souv-
enirs.

Twenty miles east of Point On
tonoggin the lake shoals to a depth of
so feet, and it so happened that it
was at this point that the Senator
made her firal plunge. There she lay,
with her head upon the bottom and
stern af1oat, submerged to the waist
and with the seas broaching over her.
An hour passed and the girl awoke.
Half bewildered and merely seeking
to get out of the dark den in which
she found herself, she got upon hands
and knees and crawled across the
floor that slanted almost like a roof.
A moment later she came across the
PROSTATE form of a man, and after
her first instructive recoil approached
him again and found that he breathed.
Then she searched his vest pocket,
found matches and struck one into
flame. She saw that his head was
bleeding and without hesitation took
it in her lap, and strove to staunch
the red flow with her handkerchief
The gray dawn filtered through the
windows and Kent opened his eyes
and stared blankly at her until re-
turning memory told him who she
was. Next he smiled a bit and got
upon his feet with a good deal of
trouble. The girl was sitting with
hands clasped and face averted, and
without addressing her he scrambled
into the vestibule and from that out
to the slant deck.
The wind had dropped to half a gale,
and the seas, although still plenty
high enough, ran smoothly and no
longer broke over the floating stern.
He called to her. telling her to get
rug, and when she had dore that he
half dragged her up the steep incline,
wrapped the rug about her and to-
gether they sat upon the deck in the
lee of the cabin with their backs
braced against it.
Silently they watched the gray roll
ers race into the west, and the low
fights Of the scurrying storm clouds;
each knowing what the other thought.
