the spirit of the individual.
Exercise improves the skin by in
creasing the rate of breathing and
stimulating all the organs Of elimina-
ton. but it is the warm bath which
is the greatest beautifer-the bath
which not only results in personal
cleanliness, but removes waste matter
which has accumulated through the
pores on the surface. stimulates the
kidneys and equalizes the circulation.
The cold plunge or sponge bath in the
morning is a stimulant to the nerves
and prevention against cold, and should
be the habit of every woman unless her
physician advises otherwise. 1t should
be followed by vigorous rub. The
warm, or beauty bath, is too relaxing
to be taken every day. except. perhaps,
in summer. when excessive activity of
the skin requires it. Women who live
in the city will find the thermo-electrlc
or electric light baths most beneficial.
Electricity stimulates the skin, mas
sage gives the muscles exercise. quiet
afterward rests the nerves, and it is
altogether the best investment a BUSH

NEW YORK, December 11.-Women
have happily graduated from the idea
that wisp of chiffon was quite suf-
flcient protection for q winters night
They seem to have learned something
of the value of warmth as a beauty
producer and a means of health. NO
woman is attractive looking with a
face tortured by cold. Red skin and
purple lips and i chattering voice DO
not contribute 10 serene presence or
an appearance of gayety-
Yet all these things We're sought and
found by women who. for a decade,
believed that fashion demanded q dl-
aphanous covering. The very appear
ance of warm clothes on and off the
street, with the exception of the mo-

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES


Friday afternoon, to talk of ways
of helping to pay for the piano which
the High School has rented, Presi-
dent Winifred Smith called a meet
ing Of the students. A play seemed
to be the most feasible means of
making the required money. and the
students were particularly enthus-
iastic over the suggestion because it
will break the tedious monotony of
the second semester. The Friday
preceding Westinghouse birthdaywas
chosen as the most convenient date.
A committee was appointed to make
arrangements.
This notice is the first, which will
keep this date before the eyes of the
pablo. 'Nuf sed.
The reporter was requested to
thank the members of the High
School Board of Education for their
kindness in purchasing Indian clubs
for the students.
The students were glad to receive
Nevada Fine again, who has been i'll
for the last two weeks.

Whisky Joe and his sequaw, Susie,
two Indians who have been in the
habit of making occasional trips into
Eureka from Diamond Valley. came
into town on Friday Of last week.
They obtained a demijohn Of whisky
and by Saturday evening they were
unable to reach a cabin in the rocks
on the east side of town and laid
down in a vacant lot near the John
son warehouse.
That night the weather turned ex-
tremely cold. the thermometer drop
ping below zero. and the next
morning when the Indians we're dis
covered the sequaw was dead. hav-
ing succumbed to the cold and ex-
posure. Her man was still alive, but
it was some hours after before he
was brought out of the numbed con-
dition in which he was found. About
a quart of whisky still remained in
the demijohn that was found beside
them.
The family of Indian Dixon George
Of Eureka and some Duckwater In
dams buried the dead squaw, Sunday
at the Indian Durying ground about
two miles north of town.
About ten years ago a sister of
this sequaw met a similar fate here.
She became intoxicated, and on her
way to the Indian camp fell down in
the snow. where she was found the
next morning frozen stiff.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT

The work Of the Nevada Tax Com
mission in striving to increase the as
sessed valuation of the State from
one hundred and twenty millions to
one hundred and thirty-fve millions.
will be chiefly notable in its effect Of
reducing county taxes. 1t will not
materially reduce. although perhaps
it will better equalize between the
counties the burden of State taxation.
The assessment raise is about twelve
and a half per cent. The county re-
auctions vary from about IL to 80
per cent and it is a question when
the taxpayer gets through contribut-
ing to the county and State govern
ment next year he will not have paid
as much to State and county as he did
last year. disregarding assessments
entirely.
This leads to the question whether
the cost of government is to be less
or more. If the cost of government
if to mount with the increase in as
sessments and with a constant tax
rate there would be little advantage
to the taxpayer.
The total State tax rate for 1918
was Sc cents. This included 40.1 for
general and 25.9 for other purposes,
including six for schools. eight for
University, two for delinquent home,
six for the expositions and the rest
miscellaneous interest.
The rate for 1914 is 60, including
the same 25.9 and 34.1 for general.
From this it might appear that the
general rate is six cents lower this
year, and it is, but the working out
is somewhat different.
Forty and one-tenths cents per
hundred dollars on one hundred and
twenty millions in 1918 p.oduccd
$481 200 taxesf for the State. Thirty
four and one-tenths cents on one hun
dred and twenty millions would have
produced $409. 200.
But thirty-four and one-tenth cents
on one hundred and thirty-five mil
lions will produce 100000 or some
$50. 900 more than a straight cut of
six cents on the original valuation.
AS a matter of fact. to produce the
revenue brought in last year on a one
hundred and twenty million estimate
the general fund tax rate this year
would have to be .35644, or approx
mately 62 instead of 60 for 1914. We
are saved a cent and a half on the
hundred on the tax rate by the assess
ment raise, but we raise within ST..
600 of the same amount of taxes as
last year. The people will pay with.
in 1000 of the amount they paid
the State the last year and they must
look for the compensations in the
county taxes.
The problem is a double one. II
is not to be solved by providing
larger tax roll to offset a smaller TAI
rate. There must always be a re
duction in total State expenditures
The comparison of $48l 200 in l9l:
as against $460. $50 in 1914 will MOI
be entirely a triumph of economy

To Be Due To War
Growth of business volume in the
savings department. Of the Eureka
post office within the last few months
has now been discovered to be but a
part of a nationwide increase of
postal savings deposits. A circular
letter received by Postmaster c. L.
Broy from the post Office department
at Washington contains data showing
an increase of $40. 600. 900 in the post
al savings deposits since July /. This
makes the net gain in the last three
months more than in the last fiscal
year. The deposits now, according
to the information given out in the
circular. amount approximately to
$53. 0O0. 900.
Those who have inv. tigateo the
increase in the deposits recognize as
significant the coincidence of the
war in Europe. That many foreign
ers have trusted their money to the
postal savings bank since the out
break of the war is regarded as evi
dence of the confidence in the stabil-
ity of the nations credit.
