Mr Mitchell of New York has de- cided that his official duties do not call upon him to utterly ruin his digestion by a continuous appearance at multi farious dinners and banquets. He con- siders that his presence at his desk and close attention to the affairs of the city will excuse any lack or gastronomic achievements by him. Of course he is right but few chief ex- ecutives have had in the past the courage to rise up and defend their digestive apparatus from total wreck in just this way.-Ansonia Sentinel.

PURE FOOD LAW MUST
BE STRICTLY OBEYED

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 25-
Enforcement of the pure food law
henceforth will be solely to see that
the provisions of the law are strictly
obeyed, while at the same time no
attempt will be made to punish
manufacturers and importers who
can show that they are honestly try
ing to live up to the spirit of the
statute, according to officials OF the
Department of Agriculture.
Particular attention was called by
them today to the fact that every
thing now was running smoothly be-
tween the secretary's office, the solicit
tors office and the Bureau of Chem
istry and that all agencies of the de-
partment were working together for
the proper application of the law.

Metropolitan National Bank Bldg.'
WASHINGTON. April rs.

WASHINGTON April 20.
Congressman bob" Bremner, Of
New Jersey, hasn't given up his fight
against the exemption features OF
the income tax clause in the Under
wood bill. He insists that he will
make a fight in the committee of the
whole to make the President of the
United States, the Federal judges and
everybody else, pay their taxes.
"As the bill now stands said
Bremner "the Vice President, MEM
bers of Congress, cabinet officers and
a half dozen bureau chiefs in WASH
ington are the only political office
holders in the United States who Will
have to pay a tax on their incomes.
Everybody else who holds politlcal
or public office Is exempted.
zone of the arguments being made
for this wide exemption is that 1t is
illegal to reduce the salaries of or
hcials during their term of office, as
the levying of an income tax would
do. The men who make this argu-
ment, however, are so inconsistent
that they propose exempting the
President and letting the Vice-Presl-
dent pay his taxes.
And if taxing an income is re-
ducing a mans salary so is increasing
the tariff and making him pay more
for his cigars or whiskey. Another
argument is that a State or munlcl-
pal officer ought not to be taxed,
because his income is taken from the
public OF course. All money Is
taken from the public, in one way or
another. Why should the man VINO
gets a $4,000 SALARY as a city official
he exempt and a bank cashier have
to pay his taxes. II. b. W.

Between Ourselves


The University Settlement Of
New York is going to hold
baby show. This baby show will
be unique in that the prizes WA
be awarded for HEALTH rather
than good looks. Is this not
sensible moVe2
1t is customary at baby shows
to judge infants by the color of
their eyes; the length of their
hair, or even by the number of
DIMPLES!
DIR. S. Emmett Holt, the New
York baby authority, proposes
an entirely different scheme. He
contends that health and rugged
ness take precedence over beauty.
He says that a WELL baby is
more to be desired than a pretty
one. And it is true.
We look with great interest
upon the coming HEALTH CON-
TEST. It might be a good thing
to hold such a contest in New
ark.

He had gloated over the find for an

AS he hurried back to his camp he

That hole in the ground represented
all of Beekman's hard earned money.
He stood there smiling bitterly down
into the dark shaft of the worthless
mine. He saw the years it had taken
him to scrape together a few thousand
dollars; he saw the lamblike innocence
with which he had paid his money
wei to his friend Hale and received In
return the papers that made him owner
of the King Midas gold mine in the
heart of the Sierra Nevada mountains
of California.
He had waited another year and then
closed his little law office, leaving his
practice In the hands of a brother In
the profession, and came On to Califor-
MIA to visit his mine. He had longed
for this vacation with its promise of a
rich outdoor life, its toll filed days and
dreamless nights and then perhaps the
realization of his hopes-a modest for
tune with leisure to pursue his art
studies under this warm and friendly
western sky.
He had come west. He had QUILTED
at the nearest large town and with
one or two hirelings had gone up the
long and tortuous trail that led to the
Midas mine. One of his men. old Bill
Heneker. who had been a forty-niner,
whistled softly as they turned from the
main trail into one that was nearly
overgrown with young pines and the
menacing thorn bush.
do you know this trail?, asked
Beekman as Bills astonished whistle
broke the silence.
Some said the other dryly.
'Do you know the King Midas prop
4rty?"
"Never heard of such a claim. |
thought this trail led to the Old Glory
Hole mine." evaded Bill. his eyes fixed
on his pipe.
"How about you. Peter?v Beekman
asked the other man.
Never been up this way before"
asserted Peter.
Somewhat puzzled by their sudden
reticence on a subject upon which be
had found them only too voluble,
Beekman had doggedly followed their
lead until the end of the day brought
them to a dry creek bed and close to it
the small shaft opening of an aban-
doned mine. 1t was Bill Heneker who
had FASTENED to the shaft house to
look at the weather beaten placard
posted there.
"'The King Midas Mine, James Hale
Owner Is this what you're looking
for M 4asked theruid man,
with a queer sidewise glance at Peter.
YES. Is this the miner" returned
Beekman, with a sudden sinking of the
heart.
