The War Tax.

We hear lot these days about lick
ing war stamps and the abuse of the
democratic party which made a "war
tax" necessary. It takes SO much
money to run this government, and the
people pay it, either directly through
stamps and incomes and internal reve-
nue. taxes or indirectly through pro-
tective tariff. The man who bowls
loudest about the stamps never says a
word about tax he pays every time he
takes glass of beer or chew of to-
bacco. Let's be fair and admit that
the consumer always pays the tax, and
it doesn't matter much how he pays
it.-Fayette County Union.

Iowa Answers Part Of the Lords PRAYER

San Francisco, Cal. Probably nc
one advertising statement contained in
all of the exhibit palaces at the world s
fair here has caused more comment
than that which tops the now famous
agricultural exhibit which Iowa has in
stalled in the Palace of Agriculture.
The thought originated with w. w.
Marsh, chairman of the Iowa commits
sion. Here it is:
IOWA is the answer to that part
of the Lords Prayer which says Give
US this day our daily Bread"
All over this great Palace of Agricul-
ture there are signs and quotations
calling attention to the products of this
state of that foreign nation, but none
of them is as distinct, none of them has
caused the discussion that that Iowa
sign has. These other signs endeavor
to give some comparative figures or
make some general statement. But
the thought that Iowa is serving the
world by supplying the real necessities,
the daily bread of the country, is one
that the visitor does not forget.
Scarcely day goes by but what three
or four visitors to the booth may be
seen with a pencil and slip of paper
copying that sign:
"lOWA is the answer to that part of
the Lords Prayer which says ''Give US
this day our daily bread >"

ARE WARNED AGAINST ARM0R
German Troops Told by Commander
It May Even Cause Them
Harm.

Paris.-The general commanding
he Eighteenth Germany army corps
mas, according to the Temps, issued
this notice to his troops:
"Bullet-proot armor of which va
nous models have been placed on sale
and actively advertised does not give
al all the protection promised.
"On the contrary upon exposure to
ire it is shown that the armor, instead
of protecting. becomes itself the cause
of grave wounds to those wearing it..
Besides, the pieces OF armor interfere
with freedom of movement and make
the soldiers work more difficult. 1t is
necessary to issue this caution against
worthless purchases
