TAXING THE PEOPLE"

Subscriptions from citizens over Arkansas, in amounts of from S1 to $500 continue to find their way to the Arkansas Commission of the Panama Pacific Exposition, showing that the people are alive to this opportunity to secure millions of dollars worth of ad- vertising for the state at most nomi- nal expense. It is gratifying to the Commission to find so many people sending in from $1 to S25. for if shows that people are willing to give according to their circumstances. and the little fellow has at last realized that his subscription is not only need ed, but will be appreciated in equal proportion with the man who is able to give ten times the amount. The Con- mission would appreciate many more of the small subscriptions, for it is in need of every cent it can obtain.

To say that the instinctive-con- uio,sness is lacking is beside the mark for such a statement can rest oDv upon the assumption that plants are unconscious. The unprejudiced ob- serves nuts admit that instinctive ac- tEities appear in both plants and animals, and like similar responses to stimuli possess essentially the same characteristics in both. As for the in stinct-consciousness if the observer considers fairly the evidences upon which his admission of consciousness in animals rests, he will find it easier to acknowledge effective consciousness in plants than to deny it or to dis prove its eXistence.-Ada Watterson Yerkes, m the November Atlantic.

WHY THE WAR IS so BIG
Detroit Free Press

NNAOAO I lSC l ICSS
 Why IS this war now plaguing the earth greater, more bloody, more ap- palllng than any that have preceded lit?
 Not because it is more general than others, for the Napoleonic wars in yolved more nations from first to last than are concerned in the present con- fict.
 Not because mans passion is more deadly and unrelenting than formerly for there have been wars before this which have rocked little of the rules .of "civilized warfare" and have left whole nations desolate.
 Not primarily because mems wea- pOns are more deadly; the ancient world probably saw battles in which the mortality lists were relatively as great as at those being fought in Europe, and there were engagements in the course of our Civil War kuite as bloody in proportion to their size.
 The frightful immensity of the pres ent world war and the horrible toll de- manded by it are due largely to move ments which are distinctly humani- tartan notably to the achievements of modern snitary experts to the fight of science against communicable dis ease and infant mortality, to the de- velopment of surgery, to the expansion of the hospital system, to the success ful effort for better economic condi- tions, all of which with other similar factors have resulted in an unparal- leled increase in world population.

BE WISELY CHARITABLE
Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph.

itbSOui x VIII OIilClC- Dl
 It is made apparent by reports at hand that the charitably inclined should consider appeals with cool and clear heads and be slow to respond to personal applications from persons they do not know, and for two very good reasons-frst, for the protection of their own purses, and second. that the worthy may not be able to suffer because of the imposters who are abroad gathering in sums that should go to real sufferers. A number of frauds have been exposed. In periods when there is real distress they find their despicable trade much more fruitful than at ordinary seasons. Knowing there is much distress, per sons with something in store are quick with help whe1 a tale of woe is told. Money has been given of late in res ponse to appeals that was worse than wasted for it went to enrich frauds and at the cost of the actually poor who needed the money. The wise course for persons who cannot make personal investigation is to call in one of the many charitable organizations, whose investigators will do the work and use to the best advantage what ever sum is given for use in the par ticular case. By acting in this way there is certainty that the money will do good. It is worse than foolish to give without Investigating or having investigation made.
