Every old maid knows a lot of
good rules for raising other peoples
children.
The reason why most married wo-
men do not know the value of money
is because they never have any.
Eve wasn't the last woman to
listen to Snake when she had a
husband at home.
A woman can get the idea that
she is liberal-minded just because
she is always giving her husband
large chunks of it.
When a mans wife and his news
paper come to the breakfast table
in their wrappers, the newspaper
gets all of his attention.
Lots of men who have nice soft
hands have calloused consciences.
1t doesn't matter how ugly the
baby is. 1t always resembles the rela-
tive who has the most money.
The lads who sing of the Good Old
Days and sigh for them would be
the first to holler for Modern Plumb

1t often happens that fellow who

he can't support her after they are

1t is funny that II you call a girl
a vision she will want to kiss you,
and if you call her a sight she will
want to kill you.
You may not realize 1t, but the

the flock of red whiskers was once
regarded as the prettiest baby in the

The reason why baby is good-na-

Unheralded and unknown Christa-
bel Pankhurst last week slipped into
New York.
Sailing under an assumed name
she passed unnoticed by the immi-
grafton officials.
There is suspended sentence
hanging over her fair young head
and this would have been grounds
for denying her admission to the
United States.
Miss Pankhurst after leaving the
London court of justice, sought re-
fuge in Paris, where she remained
during the summer. Returning to
London she was permitted freedom
provided she would leave the coun-
try. She did this. She came to Amer
lea.
Christabel Pankhurst is like her
mother and sister. She feels that
Endland, at the present time, is not
the proper place to conduct suf-
fragist campaign. She also has
blind confidence in her ability to sep
arate American men and women
from a few dollars, and American
dollars look very attractive in Eng
fish eyes today.
A lecture tour will be arranged
and Miss Pankhurst will tell Ameri-
can audiences what the future holds
in store for the militant suffragettes
of London.
She will not advocate militant
methods while here. She will be
wise if she does not make the at
tempt. In the first place American
suffragists are opposed to the mill
tarism and in the second place, the
police authorities would not permit
her to become an agiator.
Miss Pankhurst is not exactly an
guest, but she is an un- |
invited one. She must also remember |
that she is only tolerated in this
in violation of the immi-
grafton laws and can be sent back
10 the English authorities at any
lime.
Notwithstanding the belligerent |
of the whole Pankhurst |
family they are interesting. They
are sincere in their efforts. This is |
all, perhaps that may be urged in
for their acts of law
essness.
None OF us should object to a lee /
.ure contemplated by Miss Pankhurst
md none should object to her max
ng all the money she can while here
)ut she must keep within the dig
lified bonds and not urge or agitate
foolish women to act of violence
popular with the English suffra-
,ists.-Commercial Appeal

Of the French troops. Had we MOI
been well advised that the French
outnumber the British in the allied
ranks at a ratio higher than ten to
One.we might have had to conclude
that the British troops were in the
|, majority, If we should Judge from
the manner in which they are made
to figure at every critical point in
every engagement.
II is not impossible that the small
number Of British soldiers now on
the Continent have co-operated with
their French allies at a great many
different points of critical action, at
many different times, along the lines.
Least OF all would we intimate that
the British official reports are i'm any
way misleading, or that they fail
TO give full credit to their fighting
partners. Now aud then, in Gen.
. French's reports, we find soldierly
acknowledgment Of valorous work
done by the French. These are so
rare, however, that, understanding
how much must have depended upon
the much larger body of French
troops in the allied ranks, we are
sometimes moved to suspect that
other soldierly appreciation of this
kind, written by British officers in
their reports, has been detected at
London.
What we may see for ourselves.
without need of official assurance
from any quarter. is that the great
work done by the allies against the
Germans since the battle of the
Marine could not possibly have been
done without the much larger army
on the side of the allies. 1t is i'm
possible TO draw any lines of dis
tinction between the qualities of
courage in the men. All such ques-
tons as that. as to both Frenchmen
and Englishmen. were settled long, |
long ago. We think a special tribute |
of admiration due the French army |
in this war, only because in the last |
great war in which France engaged, !
her old luster was dimmed through I
the knavery. corruption. treachery |
and cOwardice of men who had |
grown up under the reign of an I'M
principled adventurer. What French
men are doing today against a war
rior face known to glorious history,
puts them back i'm their old niche of
fame, which is more comforting TO
hem. we believe, than regaining
Alsace and Lorraine would be. This
victory they have already won. yas-

TAX REVENUES

600 Persons Dodge Tax.
Forty Four Returns Made On IL
comes Over One Million
Dollars.

washington, OCt. 23.-UnloSS the
experts who figured out the taxa
bles" when Congress was working
on the income tax law were far at
sea in their calculations, there are
more than 10000 income tax dodg-
Crs who have evaded the internal
revenue collector and failed to pay
their share OF the toll.
According to figures made public
last night by the Secretary of the
Treasury. 357,59S returns were made
under the income tax law during the
fiscal year just ended. The estimates
on which Congress did much of its
work on the act gave total of 42j.-
OOO taxable incomes. These estimates
600 and $4,000. According To last
nights statement 1926 returns
were made on incomes between these
limits. so that the total discrepancy
between the estimates and the in
comes is 146,S2S.
II was not expected at the time
that these estimates would prove cor
rect, but the actual returns having
fallen so far below the estimates
has led to the belief that out of the
900 missing there must be many
delinquents.
The Internal Revenue Bureau
months ago announced that il had
begun campaign to detect the dodg-
ors. This campaign has been pushed
vigorously and IL was understood
tonight that results might be forth
coming soon. There is little doubt
that every effort will be made tQ
catch up with vlolators, for as
revenue producer the law has fallen
considerably below expectations.
turning in about s2S,O0O.000 for the
payable ten months of last year in
stead of about $49,OOO,000, as had
been expected.
Not a single class OF incomes lived
up to the hopes OF the estimators.
In the $1,000 to $4,000 class. how
over. the discrepancy was greatest,
the estimates being l7s,000 and the
returns 101.71S. Incomes from $4,-
900 10 $1,000 were only found to
number ll4.4S4, while the estimate
was 10000.
The announcement showed that |
forty-four returns were made on in !
comes over 100000; ninety-one |
on incomes between $1,000 and ST.
100000. and 222 on incomes between
$3.50, 600 and 100000 and 1,24l on
incomes between 100000 and $780, |
600. In no instance were these fig !
ures near the estimates. which put |
the 100000 incomes at 100. the !
next at $50. the next at 500 and the !
100000 to S25O,00O at $500.
The lack of incomes between $10.- !
900 and $4,000 and between $15,- !
goo and $4,000 was shown by the
ttNA ludl lhtl' n'lt why -p'oic
turns of the first class with esti-
mates of $4,000. and 1877 of the
latter with estimates of 2i,500. In
comes between 100000 and $4,000
were not far wrong in the estimates,
only about 1000 less than anticipat-
ed. Those between S25, and $780,
600 actually returned were 1,144,
while the estimate was 1900. The
remaining incomes, those between
$50, 900 and 100000. were found
to be 3.6l6, while the estimate was
$500.
There were 6.6S2 married women
