Drink and be merry. ic~ after today

This is a personal talk with those
who are wont II gaze entranced upon
the champagne when it bubbles. The
beer partisans are not IN on it..
neither are they who fondle the mint

Now, since you are all prepared
somewhat for the shock, 1t may be
put bluntly: the tariff or champagne

day. Sunday is an or day; today
therefore, is the last call for the dear
old Dingley rates.
Every case of champagne that has
entered American ports and American
mouths for many years has struggled
along under a six-dollar tariff. There
was much talk during the extra ses-
sion Of Congress concerning the tax
ing Of the luxuries OF the rich. One
night some Of the solOns attended q
banquet. Our friend champagne was
brought in.
''IIa. the very thing" quoth the solons.

And they did. The one redeeming fea-
ture was that little notice was given.

OF course, the bariSeep can't shoulder
the burden. He's a much-cussed mar,
anyway It seems that nearly every

Squashville to the Senator from the
North Pole, would fam get his goat.
The barkeep must charge it to the
consumer. Hereafter in nearly all OF

In the simplifcation of military
science-the translation Of a technical
subject into easily understood text
Capt. James A. Moss, Z. S. A, has
placed every enlisted man Of the
army and national guard deeply IN
his debt through the publication of
two new books, a Non Commissioned
Officers Manual and "a Private's
Manual"
There is probably no branch of
study so easily learned and yet so
little understood as that which re-
Iates TO the art and practice Of war.
In the organization of the citizen
soldiery Of the country too much at
tention has heretofore been paid to
the purely ornamental features of
military life and too little given to
the underlying principles of the
soldiers duties. The National Govern
ment has come to an understanding
of this, and through the Dick bill has
endeavOred to provide for the train
ing OF the militia-thrOugh its ma
tionalizatiOn-by bringing it into
closer touch and uniformity with the
regular military esta blishment. There
is a difference between a shall be"
and a will be-" however. which the
law cannot entirely bridge. The
intelligence of the individual who
elects to be a miIitiaman does this
only in accordance with the oppor-
tunities he has for acquiring the
knowledge necessary to conform to
the standards that have been set.
In the three volumes Captain Moss
has published-''An Officers Manual"
which came from the press two years

placed within the means of every mem

al to make him not only a good soldier.

the new books are to the non-commis-
stoned officers and pTivates. Every little
fact regarding military service and each
detail OF duty the soldier is called upon

careful manner that leaves nothing to
be desired.

"The Cash Intrigue"

THE Cash Intrigue" introduces US to
a money-mad world in which Phillip
Kelvin, whose father was ruined by

have his revenge by getting control of
all the cash in circul, ton. In order to
accomplish his ends he acts in unison
with Henry Breed, head or the bread
and cereal trust. who, by demanding
cash return for every lot of bread sold,
obtains a few billions, which he boards
in a safe until the moment for action
arrives. The safe is dynamlte-prOof. II

How Kelvin and Breed. with the as

absorbing story. The wireless plays an

''The Story Of a Troop Mess"

AS an aid to the proper feeding OF
troops and a manual for the conduct Of
the soldiers dinner table. THE Story
Of Troop Mess" Capt James A. Moss,
L s A. makes An extremely valuable
addition TO military science. During
the various wars in which the United
States has been engaged not more than
10 per cent Of the deaths OF soldiers
have resulted from wounds received in
battle The remaining ~ per cent has
been due 10 disease. In a very large
measure disease mas been brought
about by Improperly prepared food.
There are two things the students Of
the art Of war have directed a create
Dart of their attention during the past
deCade-the soldiers stomach and his
feet Reau1S OF paper have been con-
sumed IN Jechnicai discussions or the
ration and marching shoes. Hours OF
study and experiment have been devoted
10 the cOmponents of the ration. The
various articles have been increased or

shown them TO be Of q eater or less

value to get the views of men who have
actual experience in handling the ration
