In Great Britain the imposition of in

ment that the taxes were imposed to
meet a temporary emergency. Gladstone
strongly advocated the early repeal of the
tax as soon as the emergency had passed.
and wanted to have the rate fixed very
low. His argument was not based upon
the popular reasoning that the incomes of
the rich should be taxed so that the rich
might contribute their due share to the
revenue of the government. Gladstone
argued that the imposition of an income
tax and the demonstration that 1t could
easily be collected and would furnish large
revenue without drawing anything from
the pockets of the plain people would in
evitably tend to extravaganza. Parlia-

although the Central High principal
says he will announce his man in the
next week or so.
1t seems that Central is after par

mind on the coach, Principal Wilson is
going to land him. That is one of the
specialties of Central when they go
after things they generally get them and
the announcement of a man Is looked

There are those who say that Central
will try a new method this season, and
that members of former Central teams

Watch Carefully
the Child's Diet
Start Them Off Right With a
Good Laxative and Then
Watch Their Food.

Mothers are often unconsciously very
careless about the diet OF their children,
forcing all to eat the same foods. The
fact is that all foods do not agree alike
with different persons. Hence, avoid
what seems TO constipate the child or to
give 1t Indigestion, and urge it to take
moro Of what is quickly digested,
If the child shows a tendency to con-
stipation it should Immediately be given
n mild laxative to help the bowels. BY
this is not meant physic or purgative,
for these should never be given to chill
dren. nor anything like salts, pills, etc.
What the child requires is simply a
small dose OF the gentlest OF medicines,
such as DR., Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which, in the opinion Of thousands Of
watchful mothers, is the ideal remedy
for any child showing tendency to
constipation. So many things can hap
pen to q constipated child that care is
necessary. Colds, piles, headaches,
sleeplessness, and many other annoy,
ances that children should not have can
usually be traced to constipation.
Many Of America s foremost families
are never without Syrup Pepsin, because
one never can tell when some member
Of the family may need it, and all can
use it. Thousands endorse it, among
them Mrs, NJ. f. Patten, Valley juno
tion, Iowa, who is never without it in
the house. Mrs Patten says that Syrup
Pepsin has done wonders for her boy

EARNING CAPACITY
Of GERMANY CROWS
People of Richest Country in
Europe Held to Be Rapidly
Gaining in Wealth.

BERLIN, Oct. 1s.-Germany is
now the richest country in Europe,
s74 900 100000, and an annual in
come for its people Of about SO, ,524 ,000,-
600. SucS are the conclusions Of DR..
Karl Helfferioh, a director of the
Deutsche bank and one Of the most
eminent financial authorities Of Ger
many: He finds that the national
Of Great Britain or France, as estimated
by the economists Of those countries,
although the latter have a greater
wealth per head, owing to their smaller
populations. He estimates the wealth
Of the average German at between
$1074 and $1190, compared with an
English estimate Of 1924 for England,
and a French estimate for France of
$1405, and with the estimate Of the
S1810.
In earning or income capacity, how.
ever, the average German lies between
the Englishman and the Frencbman, the
German income being estimated at 1927,
the French (by the French authority
at Sl22, while the Briton is far in the
lead with an income Of $194.
One of the most striking features Of
DR.. Helfferich IS calculations, however,

capacity Of the German people, which
may soon bring the nation to the same
position Of financial predominance in
Europe as it now possesses in military

at between $3.50, 900 900 to $4,000 ,O00,-

means of getting what they consider
their rights has not been very happy
one in England, for the sympathetic
striker very seldom gets any return for
his self enforced idleness,
Some Of the leaders, including Phil

gone SO far as to say that the strike
does not benefit the worker With both
sides organized, and all the money on
one side, the strike is oftener than not
failure.
