Today" continued Mr.. Saxer," the
situation has changed. Now our pro-
duct goes into a million homes each
year. Some women use one can of
Climax, others use several cans. They
clean wall paper, window shades,
Brussels carpets, calcimine, frescoes
and they do the work themselves.
They find they can do the work as we'll
as a professional cleaner. And, of
course, the difference in cost between
few cans of Climax and re papering a
room is a big item the housewife saves"

is rapidly solving the High Cost of

tax assessment through which to siphon off the
necessary funds into the public treasures? That
is the question.
But it is not question which must be settled
before cities can put in system Of taxation more
or less scientific. Even with our present hoary
and obsolete methods there is still room for vast
improvement.
We can improve by adopting scientific meth
DDS of determining the amount needed. How did
Richmond know how much money she would need
for her expenses in 1914? She knew only by
guess. Each city official guessed how much his
department would need and then council on top
of these made one grand guess and passed an
appropriation ordinance.
By installing scientific budget system this
government by guess will be eliminated. Then
every official will know how much he will need !;
he can specify just what he will need the money
for and the city can go ahead with its buying as
confidently as can the woman who goes shopping
with fixed amount in her purse and definite
purpose in her head.
We can work out more scientific method of
assessment. Tax assessors are too often flock
of lame ducks who work for two dollars day
and have about much of an idea of their dut-
les a school boy would. Two of them will
march down the south side of the street assess
ing at one half and the other two will solemnly
march up the north side of the street as
sessing at two-thirds. What demands the most
accurate and expert business judgment of any
function of local government usually receives the
least.
Beyond scientific assessment we might as
easily have scientific method of apportionment.
AS stated above present method is very
exciting system of guessing. When we come to
install the budget system in Richmond we shall
be able to apportion to each department just what
it needs and no more, and we say to the head
of that department, Here is the money, you can
do much with it, if you don't do it we shall
want to know the reason and you cannot borrow
from the funds of any other department without
the most infallible reason, any other de-
partment steal from yours"
And along with that we can have scientific
method of recording the citys funds so that each
department will know just how fast to spend, so
that the mayor will be able to locate the city
financially at any given moment, and so that
every citizen will be able to know where every
dollar of his money has gone.
A new taxing system is one of Indiana's cry
ing needs. The only way we can get it is new
constitution. Therefore, boost for a constitution
al convention.

Scientific Taxation.

IF the state assembly were to pass law
compelling every male person twenty-one years
or over to wear nothing but red neck-tles the
citizens of Hoosierdom would rise in bloody re-
bellion before fortnight But the state legisla-
ture passes one tax measure after another quite
as absurd, and equally as despotic, and infinitely
more extravagant and costly with never Whm-
per from the good citizens OF the commonwealth.
The reason for this anomalous fact is, OF
course, that everybody can understand the neck
tie question but very few understand the tax
question. Taxes are reconcile and known to pro-
fessionals only, and tax documents are couched,
as are all legal documents, in stiff and un-under-
standable language which shoots over the heads
of the crowd. If the present methods of levying
and handling taxes could be made as plain to
everybody as the rights of a man to wear what
neck-tie he pleased, Mexicos little squabble
would by comparison fad away into nervousness.
A tax is the amount which every person is
compelled by law to pay toward the public ex-
pense. We say "every person" because every
person is taxpayer. Whether one owns prop
erty or not and whether he goes annually to the
treasurer's office he pays taxes just the same.
They are drawn from him by his landlord who
adds his tax expense to rentals, by employers
who deduct it from wages, or by merchants who
add it to prices.
One may accept it as settled principle that
everybody who works, rents, buys and sells pays
taxes: some pay directly and others indirectly.
Just now one of the great political questions be-
fore the country is as to whether taxation should
be made still more indirect or whether it should
be made still more direct. Land owner, factory
owner, merchant, employe, producer, consumer,
all these form circle around which money cir
culates At what point shall the state inject its

Napoleon and the Army of Italy
By REV. THos. B. GREGORY.

TINE Little Corporal" was
made commander-in chief
OF the Army of Italy,
one hundred ard eighteen years
ago.
He lacked five months of being
p years old, and only IL years
had passed since he was a charity
student at Brienne.
In the meantime he had kept
himself in the limelight, and at
Toulon had won the distinction
which he knew would give him
the opportunity he wanted. The
opportunity came when the Di-
rectory commissioned him to see
what he could do against the
Austrians in Italy.
When the Little Corporal took
charge OF the Army of Italy II
was composed of some 10000 rag
ged, half starved soldiers, but he
breathed into it his own invincible
spirit and buckled himself down
to business. At his achievements
the world will never cease won
dering. In brief campaign OF
wonderful dash, daring and bril-
liancy he ruined an army of SO. 900

heard of one retiring from busi-
ness.
There seems to be little danger
that the Elks' fraternity will
evolve into religion. He knows
that truth is a point of view, that
all is relative, that nothing is
final nor absolute, nor can it be
in a world where nothing is per-
manent but change.
So the Elk's religion is Now
and Here; to partake of all good
things in moderation; to give out
love and kindness because these
things come back, and to supply a
scrap only to the man who re-
peatedly asks for it, and will ac-
cept nothing else-this as a mat
ter of accommodation.
To do good is the first prong in
an Elk's creed. And he realizes,
being wise, that the best way to
benefit yourself Is to benefit
others.
