proposed road. The members of the
Good Roads Commission were favorable
to the cutoff, but could not make the
Improvements because of the lack OF
funds.

HOW TO BE MISERABLE.

In the first place, il you want to be
miserable, be selfish, and think all the
time of yourself and of your own things.
Don't care for anybody else Have
no feeling for ANYBODY but yourself.
Never think of enjoying the satisfaction
ofseeing others happy, but rather, if you
see a smiling face, be Jealous lest an
other should erjoy what you have not
Envy every one who is better off in any
respect than YOURSELF think unkindly
toward them and speak lightly OF them.
Be constantly afraid lest some one
should encroach upon your rights; be
watchful of it and if any one comes near
your things, snap at him like a dog.
Contend earnestly for everything that is
your own, although it smay not be worth
pin, for your rights" are just as
much concerned as though it were a
pound of gold. Never yield a point
Be very sensitive, and take everything
that is said to you in playiulness, and in
the most serious manner. Be jealous of
your friends lest they should not think
enough of you; and if at any time they
should seem to neglect you. put the
worst construction upon their conduct
that YOU can. Thus you will keep your
self unhappy

THE SPIRIT OF THE TEACHER.

a teacher can never expect to be a

from merely sordid considerations. with
no apprecidtions of the fact that his pro-
gression offers him not only the means
OF obtaining a good livelihood, but also
channel through which he may greatly
benefit mankind, and win the lasting re-
spect OF his generation, If he enters upon
his work with no thought of this ennob.
ling fact, the chances that he will worth
lily fulfill his duties are small. The true
teacher should bring to his work an ear
nest, faithful enthusiastic, appreciative
spirit, spirit that yearns above all
things to be useful to its race. that places

THE PROFESSION OF MOTHERHOOD.

1t is a difficult proession-this PROBES.
sion of motherhood In the animal
kingdom, as the offspring grows older,
the parents withdraw their ministratons,
but in the human family the older chill

CHICAGO ON TRAIL
OF TAX DODGERS

Chicago, Nov. 6.-Charging
that $50,000,000 have been sto-
len from Cook county by tax
dodgers, Maclay Hoyne, states
attorney today instituted in the
county court proceedings which
he said, eventually will include
$4,000 persons.
The brief hearing today re-
vealed about fifty alleged in
stances of tax lodging and a
system to be used in the as
SCISSORS Office, whereby a red
mark opposite a property own
er's name in the tax books
means that his assessment has
been cancelled by an assessor.
Charles Kruetckoff, assistant
chief clerk of the board of as
SCISSORS, testified the late A. III.
Veeder was assessed for $4,000
worth of personal property last
April and for the same amount
a year ago. The testimony was
interrupted to introduce a copy
of the inventory filed in the pro-
bate court with Mr.. Veeder's
will showing that at the time
Of his death he possessed per-
sonal property to the value of
81 ,026,756. The clerk also testi-
fled the late Darius Miller, pres
ident of the CHICAGO, Burling-
ton Quincy railroad, was as
sessed on $4,000 worth of per.
sonal property. The records Of
the probate court were intro
duced to show that at the time
of his death Mr.. Miller had per-
sonal propertv valued at S16S,-
1913. Wide discrepancies in the
personal property assessments.
The witness asserted it was
the practice to accept the value
placed upon the property by the
owner rather than. the valua-
ton of the Investigator.
The states attorney said he
would be prepared to ask for
warrants on Tuesday and that
the proceedings probably would
last six months.
"For fifteen years there has
been the grossest discrimination
in favor of the minority of prop
erty owners at the expense of
/ the majority" said Mr.. Hoyne

RUSSIA s FOOD
FOR THE CANNON

Every man lost to France
represents a permanent shrink
age of her population. The birth
rate of France is so low that
her population is practically
stationary.
"A good deal the same thing
is true of Great Britain and
Ireland.
The population of Germany
is growing, but the birthrate is
slowing down. The rulers of
Germany with true German far
sightedness have been calling
attention to the fact that the
people are not so prolific as for
merly. But for all that, the
German birthrate will slowly
repair the losses of the war.
But Russia need care not a
snap OF her finger for her sup
ply of food for powder. In the
conversation with Sir Edward
Grey on the eve of the out
break of the war, the German
ambassador is said to have OBJ
served that Germany must go
through Belgium, since it was
the only open road to the heart
of France and Germany had to
have an open road as her safe
ty lay in striking quick blows
while Russia's was to be found
in her eXhaustless supplies Of
men.
He was right. BELGIUM prov-
ed no open road; and now Ger
many is facing the eXhaustless
supplies Of men.
IN the PAST 10 years the Pop
ulation Of Russia has increased
by the enormous number of TO-
100000 people. 1t is increasing
at the rate of from 2 IL to 8
per cent year.
In other words, some $780,
600 young men reach the age
for military service every year.
Unless the war destroys soldi-
ers at the rate of more than
100000 a month Russia's in
crease Of population in young
men of military age will more
than compensate for the losses
in the trenches and assaults on
the German Austrian frontier /!
In all probability Russia has
more men between the ages of
IS and 40 today than she had
at the beginning of the war.
If this teeming population
can be ekpt fired with military
enthusiasm what does the Rus
sian government care for the
loss Of 100000 or 100000 or
100000 men? 1t is of no con-
sequence from the statists'
viewpoint. There are plenty
more where they came from.
If it were not for the death
rate among the infants of Rus
STA the increase would be far
greater. Infant mortality among
the poor and ignorant is almost
directly in proportion to the
size of the families. 1t is a ques,
ton of nutrition and care
Numbers under Russian condi.
tons restrict food, lower the
quality of food, and make the
conditions bad for the care OF
babies.
Now that the surplus of pop.
ulation is drawn off to the war
the numbers at home will be
lessened. The evils caused by
the loss of the labor of a few
millions of the young and
strong are reported to be more
than compensated for by the
superior efficiency of those who
are left on account of the clos.
ing of the vodka shops. The
birthrate may fall slightly on
account of the war, but the
deathrate among the infants
may also slacken up. If so Rus
STA will gain population every
/ day of the war.
