A Witty Retort.

A good story is told of two great
Irishmen. the late Archbishop Plunket
and Father Healy, the well known
parish priest of Bray. Making their
way together to Bray railroad station
one morning, the priest urged that
they should hurry. but the prelate's
appeal to his watch convinced him
that they had ample time, They ar
rived to see the train for Dublin dis
appearing. The archbishop's apollo
gies were lavish. He pleaded that he
had always had unbounded faith in
his watch. My dear Lord Plunket,"
was Father Healy's rejoinder. faith
won't do without the good works.

BASEBALL IN HEAVEN"

A Mettapoisett, Mass, minister preached tohis congregation last Sunday a sermon on Baseball in Heaven" in which he suggested that the national game may have it's place in some spirit ual form in the better world What an inovation such game would be fer an umpire. Carrying out the suggestion of the worthy preacher still further, what a vast difference the attendance upon such game would be to the crowd of fans who attend the game, as it is played here.
 Baseball in heaven is a new idea. Why not include horse racing with equal good taste and sense. Would it not be better for some of these preachers who are so anxious to make 8 hit in their sermons to,surprise, their congrega- tions once in 8 while by preaching the glad evangel and cut out baseball, prize fights and cigarette smoking.
 Ut might have 8 tendency to fill the empty pews and give the people who do venture ouE to hear Q sermon chance to get little direct gospel once in a while and less of the hysterical style of harangue that of late is becoming far too common and is lowering the dignity of the pulpit and casting unjust reproach upon the true and real Christian life.

That New State Personal lax

Beginning next October, one of the most troublesome duties of the Tax Collector, the collection of the military and poll taxes, will be abandoned and the new state or personal tax will be progmulated instead. This will be a tax of $2, 85 per cent of which will go to the state 15 per cent to<the city, or town to pay the cost of collecting it.
 This means that the Registrars of voters will be busy making a new enrolment of the men liable to this new tax. The making of the enrolment was formerly duty of the assessors. but under the new law it is made by the registrars.
 As there are many persons who do not understand about this tax it might be interesting to know that every male citizen between the ages of 21 and 70 is liable to pay poll tax of $1 Uuless a member of the fire department t, militia, or otherwise exempt, they are liable to military tax of $2 between the ages of 21 and 45 and, when liable for this tax do not have to pay the two taxes, or, in other words, the military tax" includes the "pon tax.'' When 8 man reaches the age of 45 and is not exempt from the military tax he is then dropped from the tax and pays the $1 poll tax until 70 years of age. So, from the above it will be seen that every man of over 21 is liable to either one or both Iof these taxes and must, according to law pay the collector. There is state law that calls for arrest and detention for the non-payment of these taxes.
 As the collection of the military and poll taxes has been 8 source of much trouble throughout the state, the new law will be received with rejoicing by the different officials. But it's going into effect October does not mean that the taxes now due under the present law will not have to be paid.
