SWEEPING REVENUES

Wilson Leaders Consider Plan

WILL GO TO COMMITTEE

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-Passage Of
one omnibus bill to include all revenue
legislation, income and munitlon taxes,
tariff commission, the sugar duty and all
other subjects, was the daring political
strategy under serious consideration to-
day by Administration leaders
The House Ways and Means Democrats
plan to meet Thursday to consider the
scheme advanced by Representative Car
ner, of Texas, who has been consulting
President Wilson.
According to the plan. the bill would
include legislation:
Revising the income tax.
Levying new inheritance taxes,
Repeating present war stamp taxes
Increasing duties on whiskey and
cigars.
Taxing war munitions
Creating n tariff commission.
An anti-dumping clause
Retaining present taxes on sugar.
Repeating taxes on mixed flour.
BY advancing just one revenue bill.
Representative Garner today pointed out,
many Republicans and Democrats would
vote for it because of some single item of
legislation Incorporated. That it would
decrease Democratic detection on pre-
paredness revenues was another virtue
advanced.
Garner believes that enough Republi-

Ivory Plants Grow
in Your Mouth
Look at the Plates Shown
and Learn Why They
Need Tender Care.

You will begin to take real care of
your teeth as soon as you realize
that every tooth in your head is a
separate. living plant of ivory which
with care will continue healthy and
serviceable until you need it no long
er and which with neglect. like any
other plant. will decay. wither at
the roots and die.
Absolute cleanliness is the solu-
ton Of the problem of tooth care.
Cleanliness from food deposits be-
tween the teeth. Cleanliness from
the germ life that tends to swarm
in every mouth. Cleanliness from
deposits of tartar and scale on the
teeth and under the gums. Clean
hness from decay spots.
Agood tooth brush conscientiously
and thoroughly used will take care
OF the food deposits and retard the
accumulation of tartar.
An antiseptic and acid-counter-
acting dentifrice like Sanitol Tooth
Powder or Paste will destroy the
germ life and keep the mouth sweet
and pure. besides lessening the for
nation of tartar.
Your dentist seen twice a year will
keep your teeth clear and clean of
tartar. ETC.. under the gums. and
will attend the tiny spots of decay
that may have formed and prevent
their spread.
This care of the teeth cannot be-
gun too soon-cannot ever be neg
iected if the teeth are to be straight.
strong. healthy and white.
Look at plate one. Here are the
little seeding teeth hidden from
sight but all ready to sprout into
visible ivory plants. The soil
through which they must push their
way (the gums) must be kept
healthy and prepared-just as the
gardener must tend his garden be-
lore the seeds he has planted sprout.
Keep the infants mouth clean and
pure by washing every day-swab
gently with bit of cotton soaked in
a weak solution of Sanitol Liquid
Antiseptic.
Plates 2. 3 and 4 show the for
nation of the teeth in their pockets
and other teeth coming through and
IN position. During this period the
mother or the nurse should clean
the ehilds mouth and teeth several
times day, using a child's tooth
brush with a little Sanitol Tooth
Powder or Paste.

The new raising plan advanced OF in
oreasing internal revenue taxes on whisky
and cigars is also gaining support. The
present plan Of leaders is to raise taxes
on whisky 15 cents n gallon and change
the system OF taxing cigars from that
of numbers to their value. This would
raise s35,000O0O, 1t is estimated. The
whisky and cigar taxes would be a sub

Sheepraising is Dying Out.

Sheepraising is fast becoming lost
art in these United States. There is
in consequence a dearth of wool and
almost famine in mutton. This same
condition prevails pretty nearly all
over the world. AS a result clothing
prices are going up all the time. Man
ufacturers are hampered. Meat pri-
ces soar and cost of living increases.
AS expenses increase men seek added
revenue. Prices are advanced in many
directions. Labor troubles are a by
product. And all the time the menace
is gathering weight and force.
The Philadelphia Wool and Textile
Association is flooding the country
with appeals to farmers to raise more
sheep and to produce more wool, and
is pointing out the drift downward,
which in its opinion already is alarm
ing.

INCREASED ARMY.
MEASURE PASSES
Grand Total for Preparedness
Is $343,Ol7.27---Slight
Revision Probable.

Washington, July 80. Nearly $780,
100000 for national defenses in the
fiscal year 1917 is the aggregate of
proposed appropriations reached in
the senate with the passage of the
army appropriation bill carrying in
round numbers $314,000,000. This
grand total for preparedness still is
subject to revision, because the army
bill will follow the naval bill into con-
ference where reductions are proba-
BILE, despite the firm attitude of Pres
ident Wilson in supporting the liberia
response of the senate to call for ade-
quate defense.
The appropriations for prepared
ness as they now stand are as follows:
Army 1918, $40, 4471O.
Navy 1913, 1876, 843. 10.
Fortiications LAW $25, 1850
Military academy 81, 238, 328.57.
Army and navy deficiency s27, $780,
348.05.
Total $685., 1853, 0l727.
RELIEF FOR SOLDIERS FAMILIES
AS it passed the senate, the army
hill exceeded the appropriations made
by the house by more than $l31, 000,-
900. The senate agreed to an appro-
priation of 81, 900, 900 for relief of de-
pendent families of national guards
man and regular army soldiers in the
Mexican emergency.
