GOOD WORK IN GREECE.

Constitution tinkeTing is hard work
in Greece. One of the proposals
strongly urged by the Parliamentary
Commission is the authorizing of the
judiciary to suppress newspapers
which comment on the army and navy
and to seize foreign journals which
may be detrimental to the country.
The Government refuses to accept
this proposal. 1t is not believed that
the National Assembly would ratify
it. It's enactment would probably
cause a popular uprising. The sense
of freedom is exceedingly acute i'll
Greece.
A new scheme of taxation is pro
posed in the new budget. An income
tax ranging from 1 per cent to per
cent is to be levied on all incomes en-
ceeding 5000 drachmae, or about
$1,000 a year. The inquisitorial bogy
is to be avoided by guessing a mans
income from the rents of his dwelling.
There is to be besides tax of per
cent on all the profits of agricultural
land in excess of a minimum living
allowance for the owner or cultivator
These new taxes, it is calculated,
will yield $1,OOO,OOO a year, raising
the total revenue to 1927, 463 drach-
mae, or about $2725O,OOO. The eX-
penditures for the coming fiscal year
are figured at 135,194,473 drachmae,
or about $27,OOOOOO. The military ex-
penses for the year are to be a trifle
over $4,000, O0O.-New York Sun.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 21.--An
interesting and reassuring report has
been received from u S. Consul Gen
eral George e. Anderson, Hongkong
China, concerning trade in human
hair.
The report is as follows:
There is considerable misapprehen-
sion in America and Europe as to the
human-hair trade in China. The trade
has increased immensely in the past
few years, although it appears TO
have reached a turning point. Its
growth in Hongkong has been little
short of phenomenal In 1907 the ex-
ports of human hair from Hongkong
to the United States were valued at
SAL $50; in 1907 the value had increas-
ed to 1872 ,2O9; in 1899 the sales reach
ed $327,559 in 1910 the shipments
were valued at S695137 gold, and
amounted in weight to 576,119 pounds.
Total shipments in all countries were
of course much larger, probably ag'
gregating 100000 pounds, valued at
$1,5OO,OJO gold Nevertheless the val
ue per pound of the hair being ship
ped from Hongkong at present (Janu-
airy, 1911) is substantially half what
it was a year ago. The trade has as
sumed immense proportions, but the
shipments have been so large that TIE
markets in Paris, London, Vienna
New York, and other centers is glut
ted so far as raw hair is concerned
The trade out of Hongkong is chang
ing, and much of the hair that former
ly went out in the raw or unworked
state is now going out in the shape
of finished hair.
Several establishments for working
hair have been inaugurated, but the
principal one has been opened by an
american hair expert. This factory
has been employing about 600 men
women and children for some time
and its output is just arriving in the
foreign markets. Much of the prod
uct is sent to Paris, and so far al
appearances and reports go, is export
ed from there to the United States a;
French hair
"The origin of the hair shipped
from Hongkong, and indeed from al
China so far as information can bt
secured from the best sources here
is vastly different from that indicated
by many stories published broadcas
the world over. The report that mucl
of the hair shipped was taken from
the dead is not only untrue Of tn
Chinese trade, but is inconsisten
with Chinese views of the dead an
with Chinese thought. The hair shiT
ped abroad from this empire is comb
ings from well-to-do people, mostl,
women. A Chinese maid in dressin'
her mistress's hair simply saves ant
sells to the barber the combings tina
were formerly thrown away Barber
also obtain considerable hair from ply
ing their trade. The vast mass O
the hair shipped abroad and invoicer
for the United States is in the shap,
of little wads or twistings. Seldom
if ever are full heads of hair taken
nor are queues used. 1t is one o
the strange facts of the trade that al
though thousands of queues hav,
been cut in Hongkong in the past sew
eral months-some $4,000 is the re
port-the hair has not been sold.
"The local hair establishment on
Grated by an American expert is work
ing hair into the most modern shape

Phelan exchanged with DR.. William
H. Smith, Medical Corps, for duty at

he had rendered, as he did at Fort
Shafter, most excellent service. Dr.
Phelan has splendid record of med

Service Here Not Foreign"
Since the Stars and Stripes have
extended beyond the seas the United
States army, embracing the file sec
ton of the service, have their time
spent in the Philippine division,
counted as double time, over that
same length of a tour of duty
spent in the home land. A soldier
serving a two years tour in the Phil
ippine Islands is credited with a rec
ord of four years service. This is Il
very desirable allowance for the man
who intends to make the army his
Ilife's vocation, for thirty years
service could be accomplished and n
handsome life's salary secured by a
man who would still be young enough
to engage in other work after his re-
tirement from active duty.
The army regiments are constantly
changing, giving all of the soldier
boys a chance to make double time
in the Philippine Islands with their
respective regiments. This double
time is allowed, calling service in the
Philippine Islands as foreign service
The military district of Hawaii is
not regarded as foreign" by the Wal
Department, as it is a territory o.

The popularity of the charming
young lady was evidenced by the large
attendance, the audience filling the
beaueifully decorated hall to the very

floral and other gifts with which she

Not the least to the enjoyment Of
