RIVER TOLLS REVIVED IN

ReiChStag Passes a Measure That Has Long Been Thorn in the Side Of inc

 THEORY OF GOVERNMENT

 to Be Puned

BERLIN. Dec. 23.-The reichstag has passed a law to revive the ship ping dues on German navigable riy- CTS, which were abolished with eR thusiasm about fifty years ago. The Flan originates with Prussia, and is connected with the canal legislation Of about ten years ago
 In 1899 the Prussian government tried unsuccessfully to induce the diet to pass a law providing for the con structidl of a canal to connect the Rhine with the Elbe, starting from near Dusseldorf on the Rhine, and reaching the Elbe near Magdeburg.
 Landholders Were Hostile
 The agrarian interests, which domi- nate Prussian legislation. took alarm at the plan, believing that such a ca nal would facilitate the import of for. eign grain into the heart Of Germany and the bill was rejected.
 Several years later, however a com. promise bill providing for the build ing of the canal from the Rhine to a point near Hanover was passed. but the agrarians attacked a provision to the measure that it should not be put into operation before tolls had been reduced on all the nayigable streams Of the empire. intending this as a further measure for checking the shipment Of imported grain into the interior
 Sought Consent of States
 Thereupon the PTussian govern ment set 10 work to obtain the co operation of the other German states for the passage of a law reviying navigation dues. The assistance oi Bavaria and Wirtemberg was ob tained by holding out hopes that the Main and Neckar rivers would be i'm proved in their upper course, so that those states would have the advant age Of water communication with thz sea. Hamburgs consent was ob tained by a trace of territory neceg sary for extending the city's harboi area
 Tn ore important respect the new law fails to meet the expectations o the agrarians. In order to obtain the support of the other states, Prus sia was obliged to agree to fix tn, tolls at a very low figure. and hencl they will not prove a very stronl check to foreign grain.

SANE FOURTH WRECKS
BIG FIREWORKS COMPANY
Largest Concern In the Land Goes &,
the Wall.

Agitation for "a noiseless Fourth of
July has wrecked the Pain Manufa"-
turing company of New York. the
largest and best known of the fire
works companies of the United States.
The spread of the movement for Il
sane Fourth" is the reason given by
the majority of the directors of the
company for its present unproiitable
condition.
Claimants for more than S0NO.0OO
damages for accidents and fatalities
against the company are affected by
its insolvency. According to the Pc
tition. only $4,000 unincumbered as
sets remain TO pay S145,000 of claims.
There is only $23.9S in the treasury at
the present time. the directors say, TO
nav the claims. and the rent for the
company's quarters is long overdue.
What forced them TO take the steps
for dissolving the corporation. the di-
rectors say. was Il Judgment for S2ll
which they had no means to satisfy.
1.-The reason" the directors assert.
for the condition of the company Is
that the business conducted by the
CORPORATION does not begin until June
and runs for several months. The
main business is done around and i'm
mediately previous to the Fourth OF
July of each year But for the last
few years and since the movement for
what is commonly known as the sane
Fourth has spread over the country
the volume of business of the compa'
nv has steadily decreased"

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh OF
the bladder, brick-dust or sediment in
the urine, head ache, back ache, lame
back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by proper treatment of the kid
neys. Swamp-ROOt corrects inability to
hold urine and scalding pain in passing 1t,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through
the day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.
swamp Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have
sample bottle and book that tells all

WHY LIVING
IS so HIGH.
Woman Expert Says Il Is Due
TO the Craze For Variety.
LUXURY THAT IS COSTLY,

housekeeping Means Double What u
Did Thirty five Years Ago-ineresse
Traced to Modern improvements,
Elaborate Entertaining and pistaste
For Monotony-Modern Innovations
Hit Pocketbook.
To a craze for variety, coupled with
a dread of monotony, and to modern
innovations Mrs. Ellen ii. Richards,
an instructor In chemistry at the Mas
sachusetts Institute Of Technology,
lays the blame for the high cost of
living. Her observations are made in
answer to the question, docs the in
creased cost of living mark social
advance?'
"Whcn | went TO housekeeping thir-
ty-five years ago." she says, ION the
same spot and under the same general
conditions as now, our running ex-
penses were about one-half as much.
From what direction has the T. ease
come? The snowplow no longer
cleans our sidewalks. 1t must be
shoveled to the gutter. The postman
comes five times II day instead of
twice. The telephone bill not ~
costs $50 year, but doubles the q =
GERS delivery, and hence his charges
for 1t. 1t certainly doubles the steps
taken and the stairs assembled by some
one.
Entertaining More Elaborate.
Hardwood floors mean twice the
work of carpets. The cost of guests is
double, not because the food we used
to set before them was not good and
sufficient, but because we have not the
moral courage to give simpler enter
tainment.
I'VE could give the same things at
the same cost, but we pay so cents for
ice cream instead of 40 cents, and we
have six courses instead of three. with
the corresponding number of dishes to
handle and double time to serve and
prepare and clear away.
1.-THE more elaborate service the
| greater number of things is in one
sense social advance, as it is sup
| posed to mean n gain in standing.
"a perfect craze for variety has TAX
en- possession of the world. Nothing
is so much dreaded as monotony. This
means restless dissatisfaction with
life The daily work is not monOtony
so long as one does not wish to do
something else.
Living Expenses Doubled.
at is this craving for variety which
has doubled the living expenses of
most families We all go in town two
or three times day. We all go to
moving picture shows, to theaters, con-
certs. We go motoring instead of
quietly reading, rearranging the pic
lures or the furniture, mending the
curtains or the broken china. AS for
sewing and carpentering, who does it?
is it because of the comic supple
ment that the man who sets up his
own stove or hoes his own garden is
made ridiculous?
what do we gain by it? Anything
valuable to mans real advance? Is
society or the individual wiser in what
counts or more learned, happier better
in any way? Does not each dollar in
excess mean a greater strain on some
nerve, a greater chance of mental col
lapse?
