lNGROWING OUTCOME TAX

The United States is rapidly
becoming, il it hasn't already
arrived, the most governed gov
eminent of the world. Eugenic
laws are many and stringent in
many states. In fact it is getting
down to where all door knobs will
soon have to be disinfected each
time after use and twice before.
Some of it is reasonable and a
heap of it is silly. When you are
thoroughly disinfected, the state
asks you for a state tax, a corpo-
ration tax, an auto tax, school
tax, the county wants personal
tax, road tax, school tax, bond
tax; the city wants poll, city tax,
water tax and dog tax; the gov
eminent feeling that direct tax had
been overlooked by it, imposes
corporation tax, and an income
tax. The last tax promises to be
one that will out "moonsnine"
the old revenuers of old. 1t will
open up a new era for bookkeep-
ers and auditors. If man is on
the ragged edge of taking in $1,000
if unmarried; $4,000 if married, a
bookkeeper is required at $1,000 or
thereabouts per year to ascertain
whether or not according to law
he should be compelled to pay the
government S. or $40. There is
no way OF a person paying $40 or
$40 and swearing that it will cover
his income, he must swear at and
as to details and take a book
keepers word for it. If some one
owes him and won't pay, this
must be charged in as income
unless he sues the debtor and by
that means discovers that he can't
collect it.
The old idea. of taking all each
person has, throwing it into a
jackpot, then hiring some one to
deal out Just what one can use, or
putting them on a requisition
basis, does not look so bad now
as it used to.

HOW SOME PEOPLE ADVERTISE

In the February American Mag
azine, "Abe Martini" the Indian
philosopher, makes the following
remarks on advertising:

merchant that used t set tubful

eral in front O. his store an then

Ever Teller that don't adver-
tise hain't fool, but very few
fools advertise.
eth fellow that don't know
how t advertise is about as bad
as tn Teller that don't believe in it..
Folks are allus anxious t see
somebuddy they've read so much
about, an they'd be jist as crazy
t see a clothes wringer er any
thing else under the same circum-

LET SOMETHING GOOD BE SAID

When DER the fair fame of friend
or foe
The shadow of disgrace shall
fall; instead
Of words of blame, or proof OF
this and so,
Let. something good be said.
Forget not that no fellow-being yet
May fall so low but love may
lift his head;
Even the cheek of shame with
tears is wet
If some good be said.
No generous heart may vainly
turn aside
In ways of sympathy; no soul
so dead;
But may awaken strong and glori.
fed
If something good be said.
And so | charge We, by the thorny
crown,
And by the cross on which the
Savior bled,
And by your own souls tar
renOWn,
Let something good be said.

Sad TIme for Frenchmen.

One hundred years ago the conven.
ton of Paris was concluded between
France and the victorious allies. This
convention preceded the drawing up
of the formal treaty which was to
determine the position of monarchical
France in Europe. In general, 1t re-
stored the boundaries of France as
they had been in 1892, before the
Napoleonic conquests. All the vast
territory outside of France that had
comprised the empire of Napoleon
was taken from her at one stroke of
the pen. $50 much bloodshed to no
purpose" said the historian of the
times. 80 much wealth spent without
result" Small wonder, then, that the
entire French nation experienced a
painful sense Of depression and that
the restoration of the monarchy ex.
cited little interest. much less en-.
thusiasm.
