The Tyranny of Taxes.
tCor. Burr Oak Acorn.)
The Tax Commission appeared at the
court house just one day.
And we really and truly feared what
they were going to say.
And how we all did listen
To their final word
And how our eyes did glisten
When the news we heard
OF these great men from Lansing
And surely it was great
of these fellows that go prancing
All through our noble state.
They surely gave US real dope

Along the Indiana line.
We had no chance for redress
or 10 ask for an explanation
They sure felt guilty more or less
For they hiked right for the sta

We Judge they thot il real fun
To hold such great position
And twas down at the Arlington
They gave out their decision.
They have the reins right in hand
And do just as they please,
But right here l make this stand

THE peak load of sarcasm is car

would be undignified in the highest
degree for the British government to
send any intimation TO a lot of Ia

THE business of predicting

PAID THE FIDDLER.
(The Silent Partner.)

Men respect the human laws, the
political laws, the man-made laws.
but they often fail TO observe the
natural laws. and this lack Of OBJ
servation brings about much Of the
misery. disease and failure.
If you are ailing. you can. if you
will. trace the trouble TO your failure
to observe certain natural laws. that
are as accurate as the hands on the
clock Of time.
If you have failed, and you still
are inclined to be fair with yourself
you will find that the fault was in
your not observing some natural law
If you are miserable in mind and
in methods. it's your fault
You may not agree with me, but
this is your fault again, and not
mine.
In short. right here is the punch:
Few men will be fair with them
selves and acknowledge their own
falling. They prefer 10 excuse their
errors. gloss over their faults. They
fail TO find success. health or happi-
ness. and then try 10 palm of the
responsibility on fate, luck or oppor-
tunity.
II YOU have lost YOUR job. there's
a reason. II you have failed 10 find
happiness, there's a reason, for the
world is full OF happiness. If you
have lost your health. you have prob
ably paid the fiddler

new FIRST SEA LORD
IS TORPEDO EXPERT

LONDON. June 25.-The appoint
ment Of Sir Henry Jackson, as First
Sea Lord to succeed Lord Fisher rec.
ognizes the part which the torpedo and
the submarine are taking in the war
fare OF today. Sir Henry has not had
much active service in the ordinary
sense, but he is unquestionably the
leading torpedo expert Of the British
navy.
When he entered the navy in 1868
the world was still chiefly thinking
about the crude spar" torpedoes
which Cushing and other Americans
had used in the Civil War, with the re-
suit that they were apt to blow up the
torpedoer as we'll as the torpedoed.
