OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
In the snufY Belt.

(The Hickory IndexReporter
 A lot of cracked brained editors and other nasty tobacco chewing and beer drinking things that call themselves too nice to endure snuff dipping are trying to persuade the next legislature to prohibit the sale of snuff in this State. Let the men quit chewing and smoking and cussing before they pro- hibit the sale of snuff Some members of the legislature and other men have such narrow minds that they cannot grasp the problems that confront our future prosperity and happiness. so they must bounce down on the good old women who dip snuff. If the state leg islature should pass law prohibiting women from dipping snuff and still ai- lowing men to chew and smoke we will stump the State in favor of woman suffrage.

 It is now possible for balloon to throw out more ballast than it car ried up from the surface of the earth. In balloon ascent made from Berlin by Capt. Won Krogh, the pilot of the Parseval balloon, there was carried a quantity of chemicals which have the property of absorbing moisture, and thus increasing their weight in a damp atmosphere. The experiment was successful.
 An ingenious use for wireless telegraphy is projected in Berkeley, California, says the Scientific Ameri- can.

The receiving station will be placed in the helmets of the men. When message is sent out a bell is rung in the patrolman's pock- ct and the message itself recorded in dots and dashes.

HOME MADE

A T the Business Mems Exposi- A tion just held at the Armory
 the exhibit which attracted the most attention was made by Sargent & Co. of this city. Although it comprised only a fraction of their entire line many people expressed surprise at find ing that so many and so fine goods were manufactured in town and inquired where they might be pur- chased. We have for years handled Sargent & Go. s entire line of hard ware and tools and are just now showing some of their goods in one of our show windows, while in our sample room we have continuous display of builders hardware made by the same firm.

'MENDINC AS AN ART

II seems sometimes as II the art OF

there is nothing more essential for

II she really learns to do this well II
is safe to predict It will be real
pleasure. Things skilfully mended
last twice as long and certainly look
much better while they are worn.
When dress or any garment Is taken

put away If there is anything that
needs to be done to 1t. In this way

one strand of the darning cotton and
run the stitches in on the length Of
the hole, first taking about three
stitches beyond the worn place at
each end The threads must be laid

across the width in the same manner,
only interlacing them in and out Of the
lengthwise stitches. Naturally no
knots are permissible, and when fin-
ished, II evenly done, a darn Is actu.

things with care, the result is sure to

oughly how to do thing well, It
naturally will go more or less rapidly,
and this without hurrying which is ex-

Sometimes one may be unfortunate

are famous, as we all know, for get

together and darned with threads Of

twilled goods the darning stitches can
be taken the way the twill runs, and
when pressed will hardly show. Some
times mending tissue answers the pur.
pose perfectly. It is next to impossi-
BILE to detect torn place mended with
this tissue.

CLASSIFIED TAXATION. I

At 4 meeting Of the State Commits.
sion, Monday, J. J. Brooks, counsel for
the Pennsylvania railroad. spoke at
some length. Here is paragraph from
his address:
Put the legislature where It can
classify. There is no reason for appre.
hension. other states have It. In
Pennsylvania, Intangible property pays
one-fourth Of per cent The result is
surprisingly increasing volume Of
revenue to the state"
In this state we are hesitating to do
what in Pennsylvania the people are
glad they have done. They classify
property for taxation, so as to get the
best results. In Ohio, we refuse to
classify and get nothing. Over there
they classify and get Surprisingly
increasing volume of revenue
Taxation is both moral and prac-
tical problem, but we are solving It in
Ohio, so as to make 1t both immoral
and impracticable. We All the state
with perjury and keep money out Of
the treasury both. n this isn't clean
statement of the effect of the system,
we would like to have somebody crit
icize It.
And what is in the way? The preju.
dice against disturbing the uniform
rule. It is thought there would be an
ugly preference 1t classification would
be substituted for uniformity. What
is the use OF keeping up a system that
adds to the burdens of the people who
pay taxes?
We are glad to note there is good
deal Of intelligence getting around
among the people upon this subject Of
taxation, and II the Tax Commission
doesn't hurry up, 1t will get left. The
people are getting tired Of the perjury,
injustice and low revenues that the
present system inhicts. They begin
to see that the only uniformity that
the uniform rule secures is that, in all
cases where people pay taxes their
burdens are increased. - Editorial.

STATE TAXATION PROBLEM.

The address OF Hon. F. A. Derthick
at the meeting Of the Fairfield oranges
last Saturday was devoted to discus
sion Of the taxation question. II was
an off-hand speech, delivered with
vigor and in clean-cut words. Mr.
Derthick has been doing great deal
of work In the grange of this state,
in intoxicating some new ideas on the
subject OF taxation. He regards the
present system as full of fraud, injus.
tice and oppression, and is injuring
the state, morally and financially.
He opposes the old rule regarding
uniform taxation, which put all prop
erty upon a level, when. as a matter
of fact, 1t could not be put upon a
level, and II it was. 1t wouldn't stay,
which fact has cheated the state out
OF millions OF dollars, taxed honesty
and filled the commonwealth with
perjury
Mr.. Derthick plead for some clasifi-
cation of property that would yield q
just revenue. He did not state just
what the classification should be, but
hinted that 1t would possibly be q real
estate class and personal property
class, and the latter divided into tangi-
BILE and intangible property. In this
way, we would derive large revenue
from species OF property that now
goes scot free; and scot free. bear in
mind, because public sentiment
exists that justifies false swearing to
make 1t so. Was there ever a depth
of infamy pushed upon a community
equal to this? How can we wait with
patience till we are lifed from this
slough?
There is no man in Ohio doing a
more righteous service than Mr.. F. A.
Derthick. master OF the Ohio grange.
We hope he will keep up his manly
contention, and win the whole grange
TO his standard. II he does. there will
be something done.-Editorial. Ohio

CALIFORNIA COMPLAINS
The SAME AS OHIO

California's commission on revenue
and taxation, authorized to recon-
mend modern and effective system
of taxation, finds conditions in that
state much like those OF Ohio. The
commissions conclusions include the
statement that the present system OF
| taxation does not meet the demands
made upon IT, that 1t is antiquated and
has not been revised to keep pace with
modern conditions That 1t is full of
inequalities, which impose handicap
on the growth of the state and that
these inequalities twist and distort the
industries OF the state and prohibit a
| symmetrical development Of Its re-
| sources.
That identical statement could be
applied to Ohio's condition. California
wants Just what Ohio is after, and the
commission of California emphasizes
its recommendations in these words:
"The taxes paid by farmers In Cal.
ifornia are equivalent to an income
tax of 10 per cent; by manufacturers,
only per cent.
"Our chief tax. called a general
property tax, has in fact become real
| estate tax.
Money and credits escape taxation
almost entirely.
Equalization, so'called, does not
equalize.
"Under the present system II is i'm.
possible to adjust the burden Of tax
alton equitably between different
classes of corporations.
"Our present system Is School for
perjury puts a penalty on honesty
and pays high premiums for dis.
honesty"

lacjnu Corsets-

Corsets need to be as carefully flt.
ted to the body as gloves to the
hands.
In putting a pair of corsets on the
abdominal hooks should be clasped
first, lifting the body with long
breath and at the same time holding
the head well back.
This holds the superhuous flesh in
the right place instead of crowding II
downward, which can only be exceed.
ingly ugly as well as injurious.
After the top of the front is hooked
draw the laces, which should have
been looped from the eyelets slightly
below the waist, pulling the bottom OF
the corset much closer than the top.
