The stable end of the house fronts
on the street. AS walked along
the street in one village and
passed one of these omnibus
residences, an old cow stuck her
head out at me, wearing most
benignant expression on her
face. Evidently she enjoyed So
cial equality with her owner,
and her pleasing countenance
was also intended as a welcome
to the stranger within the gate.
Nearly all of these villagers
wear large wooden shoes made
in the shape of a steam tug.
Men, women and children wear
them. When two men meet thew
can scarcely pass each other on
the street. | met one fellow who
had very large feet. He looked
as ii he had poked them in two
hollow logs. When the village
school turns out you can hear
the children's shoes striking on
the paved streets tor two hum
dred yards.
The public highways are main
tanned by State taxes and thew
are kept in most excellent condl-
ton, many Of them paved with
stone. Private roads are also
required to be kept in good con-
dition by the government. The
splendid roads enable the farm
ers to carry large loads with one
horse.
There is not freedom of speech
or of the press in Germany. NoI
matter what your opinions of
the government or it's officials
may be, you had better keep
quiet if you don't want to lie in
prison. There is no such thing
as publicly "cussing out" the
administration. No one com |

who tries to see how unprepos-
sessing she can look.
Every one whose income is
over 1925 must pay an income
tax. A part of this tax is paid
over to the imperial government,
and the State pays no other State
tax to the national government.
This tax received from the States,
together with the customs, pos.
tai, telegraph and telephone re-.
celpts, 60 to pay the expenses
of the army, navy and foreign
service. The taxes on real and
other property all go into the
State treasury.
They have rather peculiar
tax, called the invalid and old
age tax. This is levied on the
laboring class and is species of
insurance. All who work for
others and earn less than $500
per year must pay tax for the
support of the aged and sick of
their class. Even the servant
girls must pay.this tax monthly,
and a policeman comes around
to collect it from those who
work by the month or the year.
Those who do jobs here and
there and who cannot so easily
be kept up with must buy in
surance stamps, and when they
work a day for a person they
must paste stamp in small
book required by law to be kept
for that purpose. This applies to
washer women and those who
do odd jobs. The employer must
see to it that the laborer sticks
the stamp in the book or he is
liable to fine. (But wouldn't
such a law jolt some of our col.
ored people who have no regu-
lar employmentO But there are
no colored people in Northern
Germany. That fact suggests
another idea there are no mules
here, either. There is not a mule
in this part of the country. Hors.
es are used altogether.
1t is singular fact that no
country in Continental Europe
speaEs one language only. In
Germany there is high Dutch
and low Dutch. High Dutch is
the language of Martin Luther
and made popular by his writ
lngs. The low Dutch is spoken
mainly by the farmers. The
Glow" refers to the soil they oc-
cupy and not to their social posi-
ton. A servant girl coming to
the city from the country sp eaks
low Dutch and must learn high
Dutch. Then, also, the language
in Southern Germany is not ex
actly the same as here. On sew
eral show windows here are the
words, English spoken" but it
is mighty poor English. On

spoke" | went in for a smoke,
and incidentally to get a few
broken remarks on other matters,
but he didn't "spoke" it at
all.

Why does one place become the right place?
That is simple: Because at that place they
treat people right. How? by giving good
goods for the money they get. The goods
we sell are good, better best-never trash.
Whatever price we may charge you you
may depend upon it that you will at least get
something good. You can no more afford
to wear poor clothes than we can afford to
sell them. If we sell poor clothes it will hurt
our reputation; if you wear poor clothes it
will hurt your reputation. Did you ever
think about the value Of what others think
of you?
