Very few people go to the auditors Of
fee to examine the tax returns OF
others and few, except corporations,
even know what their own property Is
assessed for until they go to pay their
taxes. II they had printed copies, to
examine at their leisure they would
undoubtedly find property Of others
which had been overlooked, and IL
property were grossly undervalued,
neighbors or others would note 1t, and
cause correction In next years as
sessment and fairer assessments for
taxation would result, as taxpayers are
brought into a closer knowledge Of tax
matters. The people are entitled to this
information. The constitutional re-
striction on the exercise Of the taxing
power by the legislature should be re-
moved and the legislature left free to
adopt such laws as may from time to
time seem best. When these changes
are made in the constitution. the way
will be open for the making Of fixed
appropriations by the legislature and

EVOLUTION OF NEW WORDS.
Strange Changes Made In Meaning OF
Coined Syllables.


Word building is as much a piece
Of carpentry as Is house building
Only It takes longer. Sometimes a
century or more. And by that time
the words first meaning Is usually
changed.
For example, the old word for
"neighbor" was "sib." Ones good
neighbor was known as ones good
sib." This became shortened to
"godsib," and later to gossip" Then
the words whole meaning changed
and gossip no longer meant good
neighbor. but applied to the sort OF
talk exchanged between good neigh
bors.
Take the word farmer" too. The
old word for farmer" was "boor."
(And "boor" later was used for des-
cribing farmer-like or rough per-
sons). The farmer living nearest to
one was known as the neighbour"
and this phase, in course Of time, was
twisted to "neighbor."
you've heard the proverb: Little
pitchers have big ears" Well, it
doesn't refer to the utensil that
holds water or goes to the corner
side door. pitcher" was a slang
term with some such meaning as our
word CHAP" or fellow" Thus
Little fellows have big ears" is a
more sensible reading Of the proverb.

CHAPTER XIV.
An Impending Marriage.

The idyl Of Seedy Court was ap-
preaching a conclusion.
For several days after his interrupt
ed love- making, Signor Discordo did
not return to his lodgings to annoy
Mercy and excite the jealous wrath Of
Val Black.
Miss Affry had already discovered
that the signor was very uncertain in
his movements, and so gave the mat
ter little thought; Mercy was infinite
ly relieved and as for Val, he ex-
pressed his opinion in this wise:
Il hope to Heaven the fellow will
never show his face here again. Mu-
sic teacher! He's nothing of the sort.
I'll wager he doesn't know one note
from another. But he's a scoundrel-
you may be sure Of that. When he
puts in his appearance, Aunt Affry,
tell him to vacate."
A fierce, raging jealousy was at the
bottom Of Walls mistrust The thought
of Discordo's passion for Mercy rankl-
ed most unpleasantly in his mind.
mo man shall make love to her
again." he inwardly vowed, and that
very night he waylaid his betrothed on
the stair and drew her into the shabby
living room where Miss Affry sat knit
ting in the cleaning.
Its tempting Providence to have a
girl like you any longer without a
natural guardian" he began, with an
uneasy smile. Aunt Affry and have
been talking the matter over, and we
are both satisfied that you ought to
marry me at once"
The slow, easy going fellow looked
ruffled and determined. He tore up
and down the room, with his hands
thrust into his pockets and his face
dyed an unbecoming red.
God knows I've not much to offer
you, Mercy, but at least I can save you
from wearing your live out longer at
the needle and from the insults Of such
rascals as Signor Discordo-hang him.
Between my salary and the dodgers we
are sure to have enough for our actual
needs and we can both be content with
that, can we not? for we are both used
to poverty"
Then Miss Affry took Mercy's tired
little hands in her own and said:
You have grown very pale and thin
of late, my dear-you are really kill
ing yourself as fast as you can. quite
agree with Val; the sooner you become
his wife the better for all Of us-I say
all, for l need you sadly, l am quite
crippled with rheumatics, and really
must have somebody to help me look
after the rooms and Vaps dinners and
hundred things about the house. So
you see I'm not altogether unselflsh in
wishing the lad to marry"
What do you say?" coaxed Val,
turning Mercy's fiower-like face to-
ward the light. shall this day week
be our wedding day."
This day week-so soon?" she fall
tered.

He went to his desk, but he could not
work-he was too mystified for that.
Fifteen minutes passed. Then the door
of the private room opened. The two
came forth. In one hand Moll Dill
grasped a roll Of crisp bank notes
which she took no pains to conceal.
Her demand had not been in vain.
then! She passed swiftly out Of the
place, and Val saw her no more.

joyment adds to the comfort and nap
piness Of life. Their possession Is Sc
cured by the expenditure Of public
funds and marks the progress Of civil
| ization to higher level and as people
advance in civilization more and more
money Is required to bear the increas-
ed cost of the ever-increasing govern
mental agencies to promote the public
welfare. Increased public benefits
means an increase of expenditures,
with a consequent increase Of the
amount that must be raised by taxa
tion. These facts are so well known
and it Is so generally accepted that a
judicious expenditure Of the public
funds means simply larger purchase
| for the good of all of those benefits
| which could be secured for society In
no other way that when an enlighten-
| ed people believe that taxes are equal
ly assessed and that the funds derived
from taxation are being wisely and ju-
diciously expended, the great majority
of them willingly and cheerfully pay
their taxes.
1.-The people Of Texas have no cause
to complain of the purposes for which,
or of the manner in which, the state
funds have been and are being ex-
pended. There is, however, a feeling
|
the present laws relating to taxation
are defective and that in the admins
| tration of the law the rights of the
citizens are being injured and violated.
The main causes for such belief are
(a) the lack Of uniformity as between
the counties of the assessment for
state taxation; (b) the escape of
money and credits, stocks and bonds
from assessment, thereby causing real
property and tangible personal prop
erty to bear more than its just share
Of the burdens Of government
What Is there said as to Texas, ap-
plies with equal force to South Caro-
lima.

taxation Is of vital Importance to the
people of the state.

II am going to several Belgian
cities, including Brussels and Ant

there. The British home office has
threatened to demand of President
Poincaire, under the entente cordiale
between the two countries, that we
be expelled from France and that our
newspaper be suppressed here. IL
that threat is carried out we will find
some other place for publishing our
newspaper, for the Suffragette will be
published somewhere until British
women get the ballot"
