When your food reaches the stom-
ach it should digest and furnish nutri-

If it doesn't digest, but lays heavily
on your stomach, it has started 70

When it ferments it sets loose in
the stomach poisonous gases viii IN

the land, most of the legislation
has been in their favor, and they
have been enabled to fleece un-
mercifully the renters of this
densely crowded island. Taxa
lion heretofore has been based
chiefly ON rents, and the renter
paid the tax, so that it was possi-
bic for a man TO hold undeveloped
land on the edge of n city until
the houses grew dense around IL
without paying taxes on anything
except it's farming value But Mr..
Lloyd-George's 1909 Budget rev.
olutionizes this state Of affairs by
introducing the doctrine Of "un-
earned increment" in incomes and
city lad. Suppose, for example,
here is a man who buys lot worth
$4,000. He does nothing what
ever to improve the value OF the
land, but simply through tho
growth of the town and the de-
tlopment Of the country it be-
comes worth 100000. The $780,
600 increase from $4,000 to
100000 not being due in any
measure to the owners labor il
called in England uncarned In
crement" and a tax Of 20 per
cent is laid upon ii. In other
words, the State says, because
of the development Of the coun-
try and the protection Of the Gov
ernment you have made 800, 900;
il il only fair, therefore, that for
each 800 you should pay back
$40 for the further development
Of the country and the people, to
which you owe the whole hun.

Away back in the past John NJ.
Parker conceived the idea, per-
haps. that he could break the
"Solid South" /" He tried his lev
el best, but he failed. We think
il was part Of his cute little
scheme to place the entering
wedge by means Of the Goo Goo
organization. He expected
Roosevelt to be the nominee Of
the Republicans, and then he, we
imagine, fondly hoped to lead
most OF his Goo Goo followers
out OF Democratic darkness into
Republican light, but he failed,
miserably. The people caught on
to his cute little trick, and turned
him down. .--Ex.
