German Income Tax High.

The small Prussian city of Gorno
has lost the distinction of levying the
heaviest tax of any city in the king
dom, which it possessed since 1911 un-
til last year. The citizens there who
earned $500 a month paid $15.75 month
ly as an income tax alone, not includ-
ing church, real estate and business
taxes. The city of Stuhm now has, ac-
cording to the reports for 1914, the
highest taxes of any Prussian city.
These amount to only Ill per cent Of
the 500 a month mans earnings. The
rate of taxation increases progressive
ly, so that the man with $4,000 yearly
pays $275.19, little more than 10 per
cent, and man who has an income of
$4,000 yearly is taxed $61320, nearly
Is per cent.
Twenty West Prussian cities impose
a municipal income tax of at least 300
per cent of the state tax. The high
est municipal tax of the Greater Ber-
lin municipalities is ITO per cent, and
some Of them get along with 100 per
cent

Kite Signaling of French Navy.

Novel ways of signaling were tried
out recently during the naval ma
neuvers in the Mediterranean by men
aboard the French warships. 1t was
generally conceded that the tests with
box kites were most efficient. The
results proved that the box kites, be-
ing light, can be hoisted even when
there is but slight breeze; and their
size makes them easily discernible
from great distances. The signal sys-
tenn used was similar to that of the
flag system. Various combinations of
kite groupings we're used. While this
system of signaling is not quite so
fast as signaling by means of flags,
it is more definite, it is claimed, and
can be seen for miles around. The
success of the experiment has led to
to a recommendation to the French
government that the system be intro
duced generally in the navy of France.

Banu Went a Tire.

1t was like the crack of rifle, out
in the street, in front of our abode,
but it was only tire snapped. The
man got out and looked, and then got
in and turned his auto homeward.
His wife and child were in 1t, and
they seemed prepared for a cool
morning visit somewhere. 1t was too
bad to have ones hopes thus crushed.
These miserable old tires play havoc
with many q bright anticipation. In
fact, 1t is hard to imagine an antici-
patton that can be so cruelty mangled
as that which hears the crack Of a
treacherous tire.
Won't the happy time every come
when the tire abuse will not affiict
the people; when the spring will be
transferred from the wheel to the bed
of the vehicle; when a man may go
over sharp stones and recreant glass
without fear and trembling? Where
are Edison and Henry Ford and those
other giants of ingenuity-why don't
they do something? So we write with
our heart going back with that dis
appointed family to mend their wheel
and take new start, in the heat of
the morning.-Columbu Journal.

Objects to Milk Pasteurization,

DR.. Ralph Vincent of the Manches
ter (England) Infants hospital says
that pasteurization cannot be relied
upon to kill tuberculosis bacilli and
claims that in his experience children
fed upon boiled or condensed milk
have been more prone to consumption
than those fed on raw milk. One of
his arguments against sterilizing milk
is that we do not pasteurize butter, al
though it is raw milk product. He
wants to prove that, although harm
full bacilli exist in raw milk they are
useful in destroying other harmful ba,
cilli in the liquid.

WISE DISPOSITION OF RICHES

been left in trust from which loans
of sums ranging from $500 to $1,000
are to be made to young men en-.
gagged in business. The restrictions
surrounding the loans proved that
Samuel Wilson was not only a man
of generous impulses, but a philan-
thropist of no mean order. No loan is
to be made to any man who has not
carried on his business for a year.
and none to any applicant who has
been in business more than three
years.
This may appear whimsical, but a
little closer inspection will relieve 1t
of this suspicion. The testator. as
matter of fact, has done something
for young business men that young
business men sadly need. 1t is an
axiom of the business world that the
third year of any new venture is the

a practical philanthropy. Some wealthy
American who is at a loss-as now

Sciences New Cure for Rheumatism.

SClCHSC iNSW SdtS WI
At recent session of the Academy
of Medicine in Paris, M. Barthe de
Sanafort describes the happy results
obtained in certain cases of rheu-
matism by the use Of waxy envelopes
raised to temperature of not less
than fifty degrees Centigrade The me-
diums used were the mineral wakes
(paraffins, ambrine, etc. These main
tain temperature above forty degrees
Centigrade for "a hours without being
removed.
They give excellent results not only
in rheumatism, but in govt, arthritis,
lumbago, sciatica, etc.
The author likewise covers wounds,
ulcers and burns with paraffined
mixture (ambrine) raised to so de-
grees Centigrade or more, which
in passing from the liquid to the solid
state instantly forms protective and
sterilizing shell over these losses of
substance in whose shelter the It's

Helping Kidneys
By Clearing Blood
A Function Greatly Assisted
By a Well-Known
Remedy.

Most readers will be Interested to more
clearly understand why ANALYSIS of urine is
SO Important In the use of S. S. S. to
purify the blood, its action is a stimuant
to the myriad of fine blood vessels that
make up the constructive tissues of the
kidneys. All the blood from all over the
body must pass through the Kidneys They
act as testers and assayers. And according
to what they allow to pass out in the urine
both as to quantity and materials the
health of the kidneys and the quality of the
blood is determined The catalytic energy
forced by $. S. S. Is shown In the urine
1t Is also demonstrated in che skin. And
as the blood continues to sweep through
the kidneys the dominating nature of
). >. s., acting as it does through all the
avenues of elimination, shows a marked
decrease of disease manifestations as dem.
onstrated by urine analysis. This assist.
ance Is great relief to the kidneys. The
body wastes are more evenly distributed to
the emunctories; their elimina ton is stim,
ulated by the tonic action afforded the
liver, lungs, skin and kidneys. Thus in
cases OF rheumatism, cystitis, chronic sore
throat, huskiness of voice, bronchitis, asth
ma and the myriad of other reflex indica
lions of weak kidney action, first purify
your blood with S. S. s., so it will enable
the tissues to rebuild the cellular strength
and regain the normal health.
