French Aviator Under Arrest o
Forgery Charge.

Paris, Aug. 6.-Debts amounting to
over ss.000,0O0 are included in the
list of liabilities of Armand Deperdus-
sin, the aeropiane inventor, who was
arrested here for forgery. Against
these liabilities his assets, which are
somewhat vague, are estimated at
$4,000. 1000. His bankers hold his pa
per for s6,400,00O, while other cred
itors claim S1.600.00O.
The newspapers here recount many
stories of Deperdussin's personal ex-
travagance. He was the foremost
patron of aviation in France and spent
money with the utmost lavishness. He
always felt confident that aviation
would develop rapidly and his ex-
penditures were based on this expecta-
ton.

City Tax Levy viii Be 40 Cents on
500 Valuation.

The city tax levy has been officially
fixed at 20 cents on the valuation of
300 as was predicted first in the
State journal several days ago. The
levy is exactly the same as that of
last year.

levy for a pipe organ fund, and re-
duces the levy for a sinking fund
Both deductions are shifted to the
special levy for bridge funds. bring
ing the total to be raised for this
purpose from d little over $4,000 to
more than $4,000 Upon an eNami-
nation of the law it was found that a
levy of one-eighth of a mill for the
pipe organ was Illegal 1t was then
proposed TO cut the levy TO one-thirty-
second of a mill. complying with the
law. and adding the difference TO the
bridge fund After considerable dis
cuSSiOn, however, the commissioners
agreed to leave the organ out in the
cold with the Topeka PrOvident asSo-
citation, and to reduce the levy for
sinking fund So as to give the bridge
department enough money to pay half
the construction OF two concrete
bridges one on East Fifteenth street

under the plea that a big balance pro-

partment pretty busy. One fire this
morning destroyed barn at 3O4 Tay-
Tor street and set several buildings in
the vicinity on fire The aggregate

gulshed with difficulty and with no
property loss.
Chief George o. Wilmarth declares
that the burning OF trash without ann
pie protection, must stop, and threat
ems to make arrests unless necessary
precautions are taken. The ordinance
burned within 25 feet of any building
unless it be contained in a trash burn
er. The chief will insist that trash
burners meet his approval, and says
he viii prosecute offenders
With roofs as dry as they are now
sparks flying from burning trash are
likely to set fires almost anywhere
Yesterday afternoon spanks set fire
to roofs 500 feet from where a barn
was burning. Extra precautions are
necessary now, Chief Wilmarth says,
and he Will insist that they be taken.
This morning the fire caught in

increase their endurance are the
first to fall out and drop by the way
side. This was proven conclusively
by British campaigns in Egypt and
South Africa.
Alcohol has no food value and
therefore cannot produce energy or
increase efficiency. II does not aid
digestion as many people believe it
does. II has been shown by careful
experiments that the presence OF
alcohol in the stomach, even in very
small quantities, interferes with
digestion. More time is required
for the stomach to do its work when
alcohol is used with the food. An
investigator discovered that 100
minutes are required. for the
stomach to digest the food to a GER
tain state. When a mixture of wa
ter and per cent of whiskey, bran
dy, or gin was taken with the food
the digestion did not seem to be in
terfered with; when 10 per cent OF
the liquor was put into the waite =
the stomach required IS minutes
more time to do the same amount
of work; when 20 per cent of liquor
was added the stomach required 80
minutes more time; when 80 per
cent was added, 80 minutes more
were needed, and when 40 per cent
was put into the water il took 800
minutes for the stomach TO do the
same amount of digesting it could
do in 100 minutes when no alcohol
was present. You must never sup
pose that il is safe thing to take
little wine for the stomach's sake"
along with the food. Alcohol is q
poison that interferes with digestion
and lowers efficiency and should be
classed as such.
My Next Point is Alcohol and Crime.
Now you must not suppose for o
moment that | am intimating that
the men who drink are all more or
less criminals. You know as well as
| know that there are plenty OF good
and upright men who drink occas..
ionally. Some of your best friends
and some of mine do so and we
know that they are good people.
But il is important that you know
something of the relation of alcohol
to crime and shall give number
Of plain simple facts and let you
draw your own conclusions.

prevent private monopoly more eff

the necessity Of rural credits legisla-

THE HIGH COST OF LIVING
Some Reasons Therefor.

The high cost Of living is caused
TO some extent by not taking care OF
the little things. II is not how
much one makes, but how he takes
care Of what he has. BY saving the
little things we are able TO be pros
porous.
OF my friends, I have often no
ticed how two Of them take care OF
their clothes. One Of the girls gets
new dress. When she goes to the
kitchen TO work she does not change
the dress. II is soon soiled and not
M for wear. She never hangs up
her clothes, no matter how new or
what they cost.
The other girl has her work dress
es. She never goes TO work in her
good clothes but keeps them nice
for proper occasions. Everything is
so well taken care OF that her
clothes look new for three Of four
years. The girl is picture of neat
ness and does not spend half the
money that the other girl does.
have known boys who were
working hard to get an education,
who wore their best clothes when
they were doing farm work or dig
ging in a ditch. Children are not
taught to be saving enough. Money
means no more to some Of them
than water. They do not care how
many tablets and pencils they waste /,
their pennies are wasted in the
chewing gum habit. II they were
taught to take care Of pennies the
dollars would take care of them
selves; il they were taught to save
in youth it would grow on them as
they got older.
Buying cheap things also adds TO
the high cost Of living. One good
dress is better than a half dozen
cheap ones. There are some who
like to make show by having many
cheap clothes. They cannot be worn
long and never made over. While
il one buys good material ii can be
made over for several years, and 1t
lasts longer and looks better than
cheap goods. Buying things in the
extreme fashion, which will only
last one season and cannot be made
over for the next season, is another
waste. That is one OF the things to
watch when we make our purchases.
Most people have sufficient income
IL they would take care of what they
get. The cash system" is one OF
the best ways to reduce the high
cost Of living. When you pay cash
you will not buy so much. Accounts
will come due and they are always
larger than you expect. We should
never buy things that we do not
need. have a poem that has often
kept me from buying unless | could
pay. This is the poem:
Never spend a cent unearned
Never gamble on tomorrow,
Here's a lesson man has learned
Very much to his sorrow.
Keep your heart and purpose true
Never go above your speed"
