folly. voted by a "cowardly majority
solicitous only Of reelection next

On the other hand, the socialists and
radicals joyfully hail the passage Of
the bill as marking the beginning Of
the millenium-the entering wedge Of
the strong boxes OF the rich, which will
furnish money to realize old age pen
sions, the naturalization Of railroads
and other public utilities, and for the
whole programme Of state socialism.
The income tax as passed Is in reality
an electoral platform, on which the rad
icals and socialists will go to the coun-
try. The measure carries an amend
ment postponing its application until a
parallel bill. assuring revenue to the
various communes and departments, is
adopted. No one imagines that in its
present form it will become a law. 1t
is cleverly devised appeal to the
masses. 1t shifts the burdens OF tax
alton as far as possible on the rich by
dividing the taxable population into
seven categories, the worknen and sal
aried employees, which include state
servants, paying the lowest rates, and
the hated "bourgeois'' and the landed
proprietors the highest
In addition, supplementary tax
from which the poor are exempt, Is
levied upon total incomes above six
thousand francs, the bill differentiat-
ing in favor of income from labor as
against income from investments.

WOMED'S BEAUTY
1t Can Never Be Perfect Without
Luxuriant Hair.

A head OF. luxuriant hair is sure to
be attractive. But nature has not
crowned every woman with glorious
hair. Some very loveable women she
has treated rather soantily in this re-
spect
For instance, there are tens Of thou
sands OF women In America today who
have harsh, faded and lusterless hair,
who, are unattractfves simply because
they do not know that nowadays even
the whims of nature can be overruled
by the genius of science.
II you are a woman without beauti-
full hair. do not permit your attractions
to be hidden because Of this slight mis-
fortune.
Go today to The Lee g. Osgood Co.
and buy large bottle OF Partisan
Sage for SO cents, use 1t each night,
and you will notice the harsh. repul-
sive hair disappear, and in its place
win come soft, silky. bright and lux
uriant hair.
Partisan Sage is guaranteed by The
Lee & Osgood Co to cure dandrun,
itching Of the scalp. and stop falling
hair in two weeks, or money back.

UNION LENTEN SERVICE
AT TRINITY CHURCH.
Rev. Hermann LiIenthai of Astoria, N.

At Trinity Episcopal church on We'd
nesday evening was held the third of
the union Lenten services OF Christ
and Trinity Episcopal churches. De-
spite the weather sthere was a good
sized attendance. Rev. Nelson Poe
Carey assisted Rev. J. Eldred Brown in
the service The preacher for the
evening was the Rev. Hermann LIEN
thai Of Astoria, N. z, who preached a
very interesting sermon from the text
st. Luke. 8: 23, IF any man would
come after me, let him deny himself
and take up his cross daily, and follow
me-"
Christians, said Rev. Mr.. I.ilenthal.
are contented and satisfied with state
ments as they find them. They shirk
any investigation. With the right hand
they plumber, and with the left give
out conscience money. There are many
sayings Of Jesus Christ which, unless
we are acquainted with the gospel or
study them, are peculiar, yet they are
the words Of Our Saviour. Many avoid
the issue at such a point, yet they are
the words Of disciplesship.
II Is idle to talk Of diseipleship il we
ignore the conditions governing ii.
They are self-denia1, cross-bearing and
following Jesus.
In self denial we usually consider the
doing or not doing of acts. rather
liAetH Tie AuA1dnlEuLdi
garding all acts. We may modestly re-
spond to some call for missionary
work, but is there any self-denial
there. There should be absolute sur
render Of ones self and then no act
can be questioned or refused. Self
denial should not be regarded from the
physical standpoint alone, as the will
should be included.
All are worthless Il the heart is not
surrendered.
What did the cross mean in Christ's
case? It meant disappointment, mis-
understanding persecution, pain and
poverty. Can the cross mean less
now? The Indifferent Christian
knows nothing of the cross In do
ing some big act of self-denial in
which there is a chance for praise, the
motive is apt to become tainted. No
one is a disciple unless he is willing
to take up the cross daily.
The disciples must follow the Mas
ter. If we follow him faithfully we
must expect to bear the suffering He
did To follow Jesus leads to the
cross DO we bear our cross and fol-
low our Saviour? To this question we
have the answer, No.
Where is the discfpleship when we

Do you wonder with idleness that
there is crime with it?
1t is for everyone to work for his

can be no crown.

their endeavor to obtain new industries
by the efforts to induce the w. H.
Page Boiler company to remain in this
city, in which they have been success-
full. r. C. Plaut deserves much credit
for his untiring efforts, while H B.
Davenport has also done an indeter-
minable amount of work to aid the
committee. Mr.. Plaut has been hus-
ting for 4 number of days to obtain
suitable site wherein to erect a large
building for a storehouse for the COM
pany here, and on Wednesday he sue
ceeded in obtaining the land desired in
Greenevflle. on the line of the New
Haven road. It is bounded by Erin and
White streets and owned by Nicholas
Walsh The deed for this property will
be passed Immediately and the COM
pany viii begin the construction or a
large warehouse at once.
Too much credit cannot be given this
committee for it's efforts in the right
direction. General Manager Alexander
Don of the company has been here all
the week and is much pleased with the
location.
Since the FIRE in the Page plant on
Franklin street and the subsequent re-
moval OF the business to Meadville,
Pa, there has been a storehouse here
in the long sheds of the company on
Chestnut street and Chestnut avenue.
There was small machine shop there
for the necessary work in setting up
the boilers on hand here. The location
was not suitable for a storehouse, as
they desired to do away with carriage,
and for a long time Mr.. Don has been
endeavoring to get a site here without
result. He had favorably considered
going to Plainfield or Putnam, but
through the efforts Of the committee
the exact location he desired was Sc
cured and a new building win be
erected for the business here.
There is now a dwelling on the
property. but Mr.. Walsh on Wednes-
day made plans to have that removed
to a vacant lot across the railroad
track and just as soon as that can be
done the work of erecting new store
Houses viii be started. The lot is about
90x90, and the building will cover the
entire lot Mr.. Don made his offer for
the property, and the difference be-
tween that and the price of Mr.. Walsh
was adjusted by the committee. The
new storehouse will be constructed of
brick, and will be two stories in

Old Property Sold.
When the new industries committee
first met, the desire of Mr.. Don to Sc
cure site was considered, as was also
his proposition to sell their property in
Franklin and Chestnut streets for $5,-
600. It was hoped by the committee
that a company could be formed to
take over the property and erect there
on an industrial building. A subscrip-
ton paper was started with that end
in view. but a member OF the COM
mittee, after 5000 had been subscribed
to It, agreed to take the property and
erct a building thereon as the commit
tee intended. This was satisfactory to
the committee, and the member, with
one or two others associated with him,
has agreed to take the property. In
taking the property, the committees
idea was to retain the Page company's
storehouse here, and they have now
There win be three story industrial
building erected on the Old site, which
is 10 feet IN Franklin street and 40
in Chestnut street. The three floors
will include the basement, and there
will be about 1900 square feet Of floor
space Parts of the old walls now
standing will be taken down and re-
built, but the stack will be used as it
is. There win be a gravel roof. The
work on this will be started as soon
as the estimates are received and the
contract awarded.
This will provide much room for
small industries which are seeking a
location. Those who have taken up the
proposition are enthusiastic over the
matter, and there promises 10 result
much good from the activity aroused.

Since the committee has started its
work, they have been made a PROPOSE
tion by Albert l.. Potter, which is that
he will give an acre Of land at the
Newton farm, near Sachem park, for

advantages there for such.
