Last night the nearby beaches were

According to L. T. Cooper, who dur
ing the past few years has become
recognized authority on stomach dis
orders, the human stomach is respon-
sible for a large majority of i'll health,
and nearly all sickness is traceable
directly to it. He claims that if the
stomach is restored to a normal con-
dition of health and activity in di-
gesting and assimilating food, such
ailments as dyspepsia, catarrh, rheu-
matism, liver and kidney trouble VIII
quickly disappear. Cooper further
claims that his New Discovery prep
aration will accomplish this result in
a very short time. and his claim is
supported by statements from many
responsible persons living in all parts
of the country. Among these is Ernst
Gerlach, living at 324 Washington
Court, Sheboygan, Wis. Mr.. Gerlach
says:
IT was a great sufferer from rheu-
matism for a number of years. Doc

SENATOR'S HEAR
MANY SPEECHES
tContinred from Page one,

mends is, as he declared, IAN excise
. tax on the privilege of doing business
as an artificial entity and of freedom
from joint partnership liability by
those who own stock" the tax sus-
tained by the supreme court case in
the Spreckels case was not of this
nature, but simply tax imposed upon
the occupation of refining petroleum or
sugar, whether done by person, firm
or corporation.
Rule May Be Broken
IF the tax suggested by the presi-
dent" continued Mr.. Newlands, lis
to be regarded as an occupation tax,
may not the question be raised that
the rule of uniformity is broken by
applying this occupation to corpora
tons alone and not to natural per-
sonals?
IF, however, it be held that the
suggested tax. is, as the president as
serts, a tax upon the privilege of do
ing business as an artificial entity,
that is to say, a tax upon the right
to be a corporation, may it not be
contended that the corporation fran
chise is the creation of the state SOW
ereignty; that the power to tax is the
power to destroy, and that the nation
has no power for this reason to tax
the privilege granted by the state?"
Mr.. Newlands suggested that the
excise tax on sugar, and oil refiiners
could be easily enlarged so as to in
clude all manufacturers of goods pro-
tected by the tariff, and that small
manufacturers could be relieved from
its operations.
Senator Beveridge addressed the
senate at length in support of his
amendment changing the size of to-
bacco packages.
Kept on Collecting
"The manufacturer kept on collect
ing the war tax" he explained, "after
it had been taken off, and instead of
paying it to the government, he paid
it to HIMSELF"
Mr.. Beveridge declared if his amend
ment was adopted the government
would receive more than $21,000,000 of
revenue and correct the wrong which

moved to lay the substitute on the
table, which was done, 80 to 2S.
