along hauling rock. A horse attached
to light carriage in which a child

The Washington Herald in a recent
editorial commenting upon Secretary
McAdoo 5 proposal to Congress to
postpone the action of the President
looking to the consolidation of customs
districts in the several states, in ac-
cordance with the order issued by
President Taft at the last session of
Congress, until January /. 1914. is
inclined to give Senator Dillingham;
the credit for being the only opponent
of the Curtis plan of consolidation to
win his point in regard to the con
soldation of customs districts as it
affected the situation in a single state.
The Herald says:
During the Taft administration
the treasury department proposed to
abolish all collectorships, except one
in practically every state, and to make
each port subordinate to one central
| port. The plan was blocked by mem
bers of Congress protesting against
I any changes in their own territory
/ They believed it to be in the interest
of economy and efficiency, but it haL
one little flaw: 1t split things wrong
in their own states. The protest be
came so vociferous that President Taft
/ gave hearing to the Congressional
critics, but yielded only at one point
Senator Dillingham; of Vermont con
WINGED him that the Green Mountain,
so divided his home state that thu
people could not get from the east t.
the west, and vice versa, except il
Aeroplanes, and Senator Dillingham;
was allowed two collectors.
Senator Dillingham; is INCLINED t
think. however, that what saved tn
two collectorships for Vermont wa

The city council estimates IL
will require 1924, $50 to grease
the wheels of the municipal
chariot next year. 1t is estimated
1856, 900 will come in from saloon
licenses, circuses, and the various
sources of revenue the city has.
This leaves 5000, $50 to be raised
by taxation.
The assessed valuation is about
$74,OOO,OOO.
But there is always certain
per cent of taxes not paid. For
purposes of figuring the council
has judged this to be little over
five per cent and has therefore
figured actual money would come
in from $70,000,000 valuation.
OF course back taxes come in
every year too but 1t is insisted
these will be needed to pay a de-
ficit that will accrue this year
and which has been following on
down the years from the old ward
council government. The COM
mission wants next year to get
down to strict cash basis. 1t
has been working to this end ever
since it came in.
To raise $909,936 then on a
basis of $70,000,00O means just
a ID mill tax levy.
This is one mill more than was
levied this year. Most people
seem to feel it is at least one mill
more than should be next year.
The problem that will face the
citizens who are to go to the
council chamber next Monday and
tell what they think about it, is
to tell where the expenses of the
city can be cut to reduce it.

For SallOw, Blotchy,
Rough or Greasy Skins

Some skins require constant
grooming to keep them from be-
coming oily, muddy, blotchy or
rough, or If such condition has de-
veloped, to overcome it. In such
chronic cases 1t is particularly in
advisable to keep piling on cos
metics which clog the pores, collect
dust and dirt, making the complex
lon worse than ever. It's a lot more
sensible to use ordinary mercolized
wax, which literally absorbs a bad
complexion. Apply the wax, like
cold cream, before retiring; next
morning, in washing it off, you'll
wash away fine, flour-like parti-
cles of the unsightly cuticle. Re-
peat for a week or more and you'll
have an entirely new skin-soft,
satiny, spotless and beautiful as a
child's. One ounce of mercolized
wax, procurable at any druggists
is all you'll need.
If the skin be wrinkled or flabby,
here's the best possible remedy:
Mix " pint witch hazel and / ounce
powdered saxolite and use as a face
bath. 1t works like a miracle, yet
is entirely harmless.

and save interest. Also this is i'm
portant IL the city ever contem-
plates any further advances.
She must get down below the debt
limit in case 1t is desired to issue
large quantities of bonds say for
municipal street railways, NUM-
cipal telephones, municipal utili-
ties of any kind that in the future
may seem desirable to the citizens
The cuts then apparently must
come somewhere else. The peo-
pie are cropping largely in the
dark for the place.
A good bit of loose talk has
been INDUCED in against the city
automobiles.
But not all these autos are an
extravaganza. Commissioner
Mills wants some auto fire equip
ment. In the long run it will pay
to supplant the horse. But IL
does not seem to have occurred
to any city commissioner that
with the motorizing of the engine
houses, enabling greater speed in
getting to fires that the fire de.
partment can actually be cut
down. Under the old ward coun.
Gil system every councilman want
ed firehOuse i'm his neighbOrhood
and they were built rapidly. With
motorized apparatus it is quite
likely that at least one whole
firehouse can be abandoned, and
still maintain as efficient SER
vice as was had with hOrse-drawn
machines.
This would cut many thous-
! ands of dollars from the budget
Commissioner Woods has been
criticised for wanting $4,000
auto.
He has used a REQ for three
years. 1t has been a great ma.
chine. 1t is worth a few hundred
dollars yet. A new REQ that will
do for three years more could be
secured probably by trading in the
old one for $500. Why not?
The fire department is asking
$3,458 for new alarm boxes and
material.

economy essential, the Gamewell
