EXTRAvAGANCES ALL
ALONG THE LINE

1t Is time for the people of this
country TO pun themselves together
and begin considering the question OF
economy in national, state, county,
municipal and even in private affairs
The treasury of the nation is de-
pleted TO the extent where a reSump-
tion OF the war tax is considered i'm
minent; the surplus of the state is
being drawn upon; expenses have
been increased by the legislature de-
spite the fact that the income has
been reduced by the operation of the
Rose law, the city's exohequer is low
because of extravagances in munic-
ipal expenditures and trhe calls upon
charity are numerous because, during
the seasons OF prosperity, the family
made no provision for the inevitable
rainy day.
Congress has expended money with
q lavish hand, and had it listened
TO the demands OF President ROose-
Welt, the treasury would have been
In worse condition than it is today
President Roosevelt demanded the
construction of twice the number of
battlcshfps which were authorized
and the increase of the standing
army Aside from this, congress
has spent the greater part OF its time
In raising salaries. The pay of each
member was recently increased in a
manner which should bring shame to
every member OF that august body.
Not willing TO go upon record as vot-
ing for am increase In salary,
Speaker Cannon consented TO vote
upon the proposition without the roll
call. No one excepting the individual
members of congress know how any

nor Harmon's final appeal to the
Legislature for tax Legislation be-
fore adjournment was rudely re-
jected by the Republican senate.
The message did net apply TO
the house with the same forceful-
ness that 1t did to the senate. The
house had passed the Woods bill
ITO create a state tax commission in
lien of the dozen existing ex-ohiclo
boards 1t was the only taxation
bill introduced in the house, hence
that body could proceed no further
without the concurrent action of
the senate.
1t was the senate, by partisan
vote Of Its Republican majority,
which had stifled all taxation bills
on that side OF the leg
islature during the session and
sought to excuse dts derelictbon of
duty by resolution 10 refer the
whole subject 20 another commit

proposition which the house twice
positively rejected.
Hence the governors message
before final adjournment stung the
Republican senators, as demonstrate
ed by the senabs's subsequent ac-
tion in adopting by strict party
vote a resolution by Senator Clev-
enger to name a COMMITTEE of three
senators TO make special repor,
on taNation for consideration at
the regular session next year.

The fight against consumption is be-
coming a national problem.
Everywhere we hear of sanitariums
established at the expense of the state
for the treatment OF the vast army OF
consumptives.
The open air treatment, fresh air and
sunlight, are recognized by the medical
profession generally as being the great
est necessities in the treatment of con-
sumption in all its stages.
DR.. Hartman has for many years adj
vocated the fresh air treatment for con-
sumption. At the same time he has
recognized Peruna as useful pallia-
tive for the many distressing symptoms
which accompany the white plague.
The promptness with which Peruna
relieves fresh cold, and even removes
chronic colds, 10 well-known. This
ranks Peruna as q reliable prophylactit
against consumption.
