INDIAN RELICS.

While blowing land south of the
city short time ago Jack Hewlett
came across the barrel of an old army
musket of the Springfield type. The
wooden stock had entirely decayed,
and the barrel is pretty well eaten up
with rust. 1t was covered with sew
eral inches of earth, evidently having
been buried by someone presumably
Indians. The gun had evidently been
in the ground forty or fifty years, and
the reason for presuming that it was
buried by Indians is that Mr.. Hewlett
also turned up several flint arrow
heads near where the gun was found.
1t is possible that the gun was buried
with some Indian, for Indian burying
grounds have been found in this
county where the graves were SO
shallow that the white mans pillow
have turned up bones and trinkets
Louis Johnson, the cement side
walk builder, while building a side
walk along Harrison boulevard some
time since, unearthed a flint arrow
head and stone hammer The arrow
head was of white flint, almost per-
feet in shape, and had a red tip. The
tip was broken off accidentally by a
pick ak. The hammer head had hole
drilled through it, as means of fast
ening it to a handle, with buckSkin
thong.

Pooling People.

"You can't fool all the people all
the time" said Lincoln. That was
not to say a great deal, however. for
if you can fool most of the people
most of the time it is a surely bad
enough condition, in democracy and
this is something which not only can
be done, but has been done and is be-
ing done even now, through the sys-
tenn we have of supporting the gov
eminent by indirect taxation. The
people of the United States. besides
supporting their state, county and
local governments, by paving direct
taxes, support the federal govern
ment by paying indirect taxes, which
costs them one billion dollars per
year, or about ten dollars for each
man, woman and child in the coun-
try. Now if Uncle Sam presented his
annual bill, to us people of Wausau
for instance, just as our city treaSur-
er does each of us would have brought
right home TO us very sharply an I'M
Outstanding of the case. Thus, as
Uncle Sans tax is upon what each
one of us eats, drinks and wears, the
man who had one child would know
that he is taxed about ten dollars a
year for it THE average) the man who
has two children would know that
his tax on this account is twenty dol
lars per year, the man with six chill
dren sixty dollars per annum and 50
on. This is, however just what we
are taxed and what we are paying,
without realizing it, and that is how
we are all fooled all the time by in
direct taxation, otherwise called 'the
tariff" 1t is drawn out OF cur pock-
cts indirectly, and without any of
the usual preliminarieS and forms of
tax collecting couple of cents each
time you buy pound of sugar, more
than that when you buy tea or coffee,
from one dollar up to ten each time
you buy some article or suit of wool
EN- manufacture; half cent if you
buy a pound of nails, -something,
more or less, every time you buy al
most anything. Even the few things
upon which no tariff is levied are
often dearer because there are not
enough of them used to warrant for
eign merchants in sending them here.
There are so many of the important
necessities taxed to rrohibitory de-
gree that less important things put
on the free list, won't be sent be-
cause they alone, without the things
that are taxed, would not make car
goes sufficient to induce foreign ship
pers to go into the business of deal
ing with us in those things alone; so
our own manufacturers have a mon
Opoly on those free list things nearly
as much as on the other neceSSarieS,
and charge consumers what they
please.

Subsidies.

The advocates of the ''Ship subsidy"
project were unwise in selecting a
name for their scheme; also in their
selection of ways and means. Every
one knows that subsidy means a
free gift, and the ordinary person
Justly feAs that if he makes gift, he
wants the privilege of choosing the
person, or the cause TO whom he shall
give it. Now we have given subsidies,
for forty years, to manufacturers, to
owners of oil, coal, iron and other
minerals and TO lot of other people
but the majority of us have found no
fault, Just because they called it
tariff instead of subsidy" Surely
it would have been wise to give it
some other name if some less truth
telling name could have been found
or invented.

right here is most important point
that the bandeau is not bound tightly

In the little French blouse shops You
are sure to pick up charming chap eau
designed miraculously-so 1t seems-to
accompany the blouse you select. When
dressy blouses are worn with two-piece
suits at the matinee and afterward at
tea in fashionable restaurant or grille
this notion of d hat matching ones blouse
is felicitous. and very simple little
ready-built two-piece suit may be made
distinguished in this manner.

In direct contrast to the loose blouses
of chiffon yelling lace. there are smart
little blouses of heavy Irish crochet or
the fashionable and expensive Venise,
which mold the lines Of the figure without
showing fulIness anywhere. These lace
