MATTER OF TAXATION.

In regard to Afsace-Lorrain., which IS now such a stormy topic in Germany, Bismarck once said; "The French Lorrainers are not half so bad as they are painted. Those who are good haters can also be good lov- CTS. The very first night l slept in France during the war-and l re- member, by the way, that l had a tame but very tough rabbit for sup per-my host said to me, It is all the same who takes us, Russians or Prussians; but we prefer those to whom we should have to pay fewest taxes replied that he would have to pay less to us than to France, though how long this would last I could not say" Individual taxation is now heavier in France than in Germany.

FAULKNER COUNTY HOG
 TIPS BEAN AT 6O5 POUNES

Probably the largest hog ever killed, or raised in this section of the state, was the one butchered by J. R. Holmes at his home s niles east of Conway last Satur- day. This monster hog is of the Poland China variety and tipped the bean at 605 pounds
 Mir. Holmes has quite a num- OCT of fine hogs of this strain.
 At 10 cents per pour d h s huge animal would have brought into the coffers of MT, Holmes the neat sum of $60 50 It pays to raise hogs, and who can beat the one, above mentioned?

WHY | GO TO CHURCH
Congressman Claud Weaver of Oklahoma, in Leslie's Weekly
 of August 7, 1913.

1t IS W e on a summer $ morning, when the air is acquiver with the love songs of the birds and fragrant with the odor of roses blown, to hear the music of the church going bells, an invi- tation to the world wearied to enter Gods temple and find peace because the instinct of worship is in the heart of man and the church is the temple of the liv- ing God.
 I go to hurc h because I find peace there, that peace which De Quincy described as a resting from human labors, a Sabbath of respose, respite granted from 1 the secret burdens of the heart. as if l stood at a distance and aloof from the uproar of life; as if the tumult and fever and strife were suspended; as if t h re brooded over me a dovelike and halcyon calm.
 1 go to churh because I love the music that hear there, the mighty roll of the great organ, mingled with the marvellous symphonies of that divine string ed instrument, the human voice, untwisting all the chains that tie the hidden soul of harmony.
 1 go to church because 1 de- light to hear the teachings of the preacher, whose soul is dedicated to God, whose field is as wide as Gods universe, whose theme is the destiny of man, and whose words are the oracles of Fate. Marvellous is the spell of the preacher to whom God has given genius and consecration and the power of illustration drawn from the old lsacred, immortal book, and from the miracles of nature. no legs revealed in the crimson tipped flower turned up by the plowshare of Robert Burns upon the soil of the Ayr than in the long reaches of the star-girt skies.
 I go to church because "the way is dark and am far from home, and because the church is the polar star to light my path way in the rayless light.
 I go to church because h e church ministers not only to the spiritual but also to the material needs of life, and because it is there that the charities that soothe and heal and bless are scattered at the feet of man like flowers.
 l go to church because Tn that atmosphere vice and crime with CT and die.
 go to church because 1 hear the teachings of the philosophy of Jesus, the incomparables sman: and if you say his teachings is philosophy and not religion and that he was a man and not a god, then the philosophy of that man has redeemed the world from savagery and blessed man kind with Christian civilization, and to my mind, it is a thing worth while to hear.
 I go to church because 1 find there consolation and hope; be- cause l see there :the dawn and not the sunset; land it is better for man, if the hope is baseless and the vision but an elusive phantom, to cherish a drenm so glorious and beautiful than to be weighed down. land crushed with the quarried mountains of a world without hope and without God.

TAKES A
SWING BACKWARD
The Worm Turned and Crawled Over
the Universe and Polo Players Were
Out -Shipnied.
BY Hal Sheridan.


New York, July millennium shout
ers should by all rights and by virtue
of performances so far this season,
have the year of their lives during
1914. The year of the Big Wind had
nothing on 1914. There have been more
upsets to date in little old Ammo Domini
1914 than in any other complete 365-
day year in our memory.
Take look at the wild and woody
habit of victory developed by the
Browns and the Cards. Glimpse the
brutal manner in which tae heretofore
unhittable shoots of Walter Johnson
have been biffed on the nose at the
proper moment by one-time hoodooed
bat.swingers. Give the double-0 to the
outlandish manner in which the once
cuffed and abused Cincinnatis have jam
med and smashed ami banged their way
up to the top o tine heap, and then peer
carefully at the unimpressive figures
which are at the right of the decimal
point in the Chicago American club
standing, remembering that no club in
either league has anywhere near the
classy pitching staff that Jimmy Gala
han has garnered under his wing.
Next week at Yale S record for the
year in her collisions with Harvard.
After being the worm in baseball and
rowing for years without numeer, ~
eording to New Haven S way of think
ing, the aforesaid worm turned, arose
unwOrmlike to the top and lambasted
the Crimson to a fare-you.well.
While noting the damage done TO the
erstwhile winner by the smashing swing
of the pendulum on its return trip,
don t forget the way old j. Bull ripped
our best mallet-wielders wide open with
our own stuff in the jOusting for the
Westcnester polo cup.
Once again, glance toward the Brit
ish Isles and you II see a couple of golf
cups and titles that adorned United
States shelves last year.
In other words, and to be brief, if
you want to win all bets, about the
best tip in order follows:
Pick last years loses to win this
year. Bet all you've got'and pray for
the grand old dope to continue in the
path he has followed so far this sea-
son.
In this years turning of the colleg-
late worm it may be mentioned that
Yale beat Harvard on field and track;
Yale beat Harvard the best two out of
three at baseball, and Yale beat Har-
ward in rowing.
There is only one branch of sport left
this year in which the turning of the
worm can be made complete: this is in
football next fall.
While the Blue fees mighty chipper
and coeky over these three victories
enumerated, it can be safely said that
Yale students and graduates would
rather see football victory over the
Crimson than victories in everything
else. Yale hopes are nigh for next fall,
but they'll have to have something bet
ter than high hopes as long as Harvard
has Brickley and Mahan playing
on her football eleven.

that the United States did some very dirty work in
