Should Bachelors be
Taxed.

That's the subject which we see
by the newspapers was a very inter
esting debate few evenings ago,
and the hall wasn't large enough to
accommodate half the numbers OF
people who wished to hear and see
the old gray headed "baches' get 1t
put all over them. !" OF course the
poor old bachelors lost after a recon-
nossance by the affirmative into
every year from the year one to
date. But if the bachelors were rep
resented by three hen pecked" hus-
bands there would have been a diff
ferent, delightful decision, for this
ad man doesn't think two-thirds of
the poor unfortunate bachelors real
1y know what they are missing, but
we imagine that few hen pecked
mollycoddles" could very much en-
tighten that hallful. OF course
these are only our thoughts. Well,
be that as it may, the affirmative
were more than generous in their de-
mands because we think $50 per
year is o. X; in fact, that wouldn t
stir some of them. Yes, Stree,
there are some husbands who are
compelled to drink cheap, trashy tea
and coffee, and their hard earned
cash paid for it, when their wives
could just as we'll call at our store
and get the nice tasting kind for
The same price. But no, she want
I'd trading stamps or some other
bargain. But remember, if you
