seen from the veranda Of the Galland
house. Where these came from were
other boys growing up to take their
places. The mothers Of the nation

was q breedingground for the divi-
dends OF Hedworth Westerling.
At the far side Of the park he saw
another kind of dividend-another
group of marching men. These were
not in uniform. They were the unem-
ployed. Many were middle-aged, with
worn. tired faces. Beside the nag Of
the country at the head Of the process
sion was that Of universal radicalism.
And his car had to stop to let them
pass. For an instant the indignation
Of military autocracy rose strong with
In him at sight OF the national colors
In such company. But he noted how
naturally the men kept step; the

teers, but ON universal CONSUMPTION
that brought every able-bodied man
under discipline.
These reservists, In the event OF
war, would hear the call Of race and
they would fight for the one flag that
then had any significance. Yes. the
old human impulses would predomi-
nate and the only enemy would be on
the other side of the frontierY They
would be pawns Of his will-the will
that Marta Galland had said would
make him chief Of stan.
Wasn't war the real cure for the
general unrest? Wasn't the nation
growing stale from the long peace? He
was ready for war now that he had be-
come vice-chief, when the retirement
Of His Excellency, unable to bear the
weight Of his years and decorations In
the field, would make him the supreme
commander. One ambition gained, he
heard the appeal of another; to live
to see the guns and rifles that had
fred only blank cartridges in practice
pouring out shells and bullets, and all
the battalions that had played at sham
war in maneuvers engaged in real
war, under hie direction. He saw his
columns sweeping up the slopes of the
Brown range. Victory was certain. He
would be the first to lead great mod
ern army against a great modern
army; bis place as the master Of mod
ern tactics secure in the minds Of all
the soldiers of the world. The public
would forget its unrest in the thrill of
battles won and provinces conquered,
and its clatter would be that Of &C.
claim for a new idol of its old faith.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

not reach the diseased portion Of the
ear. There is only one way Il cure
deafness, and that Is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused
by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have q rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely clised. Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out

There is no doubt that Hon. Howard

man-at-large from West Virginia

be characteristic of the others held
by Hodges.

occasioned by the loss OF $4,000
in revenue throug the operation OF

Sign Posts

All crossroads in this, and
every other county in the state,
should be equipped with sign
boards. The sooner this is done
the better it will be; not alone
for the auto-tourists who in large
numbers are crossing our state,
but for the people of our own
county who have occasion to
make trips into territory un-
familiar to them.
A generous act never fails of
reward and when township trus-
tees, or county commissioners,
or whoever should do this work
can perform so splendid a SER
vice in the line of official duty at
so little cost, it ought to be done.

HALF THE WAR TAX
TO Be PAID BY BEER

The war revenue tax of ap-
proximately $50,000, 900 on the
annual output of beer is agree
able to the brewers of St. Louis,
although this industry already
pays yearly internal revenue
tax of $165, 900, 600. The stamp
tax on negotiable instruments,
stocks and bonds, deeds, bill of
lading, pullman and steamship
tickets and insurance policies is
expected to yield $50, 600, 900 and
the remainder will be raised by
a levy on tobacco, patent med
icine, perfumes, cosmetics, the
atre and amusement tickets, etc.
The beer tax will yield a revenue
more than ten times greater than
