HUXLEY NOT LIABLE
 FOR INCOME TAX
Three Judges of Divisional Court Decide in Favor of WeIl-Known
 English Jockey. '

London, Jan. 5.-Three judges of the divisional court have decided that William Huxey, the wellknown English jockey, is not liable for in- come tax.
 He had been assessed on ten thou sand dollars, but on his behalf tho question was raised whether a youth under twenty-one years, who has no guardian or trustee, is liable for in- come tax. The court accepted the neg ative view. One of the justices said it seemed to him impossible to hold that an infant who could not ordi- narily be served with legal process or exercise the right of appeal should be assessable to income tax unless the legislature so provided.
 The effect of this decision says the Mail. will be wider now than in peace time. Ordinarily minors are caught in the income tax owing to the sim ole fact that their incomes are usual Iv unearned increment administered for them by guardians and trustees. A few jockeys and infant prodigies have escaped, but now there must be thousands of minors, who are earn ing up to thirty dollars a week in mu- nition factories.

IS NEWARK MURDERER HERE?
According to New Jersey Clairvoyant
 He Is. So It Must Be So.

The local police have received a circular letter from the Newark, N J., police asking them to be on the alert for Antoni Frederick wanted for mur- der and for whose arrest a reward of S1,500 is offered. The accused is 50 years of age and was a constable and court interpreter. In a street fight he shot four policemen, killing two. The only clue the local police have is that the murderer uses peculiar medicine which he guards with care. It is thought that he may be traced by druggists to whom he takes his prescription.
 But here enters the clairvoyant who has notified the police that the man is in this city. This communer with the spirits gives most explicit informa- ton CD stating that the murderer is hiding three miles from a we'll and not far from a bridge.''

AERIAL ATTACK
 ON ALLIES CAMP
Greek Prince Says it Was One Of
 Most Extraordinary Sights

Athens, Via. Paris, Jan. 4, 9:45 3. m.-Prince Andrew of Greece, trother of King Constantine in an in tervieW today with the correspondent Of The Associated Press, described the aerial bonn bardnent of the allies camp at Zellpenlik, on the outskirts of Salonil1i, on December 30
 "The bonn bardment and the reply Of the fleets anchored in the roads of Saloniki,'' said the prince, was one Of the most extraordinary sights imagina ble. I was riding back from the mornings work with my regiment about 10:30 when I was startled by Ceafening explosion some 200 yards away A great cloud of black smoke arose followed shortly by three more explosions at regular intervals. Then came the familiar rocketlike sound of 6 shell passing through the air. evil dently fired by one of the warships in the harbor.
 Bombarding Saloniki.
 Naturally my first thought was that for some reason the fleet was hombarding Saloniki. Therefore, I rode straight to the nearest British post which happened to be a hospi- tai not far from the Greek camp.
 "'Why are you bombarding the City?' I asked the officers. Then for the first time I looked up and saw three machines fully 5000 feet high flying in line from the northeast and turning just over the harbor toward the northwest in which direction they finally disappeared.
 Fleet Opens Fire.
 ''The bombs dropped with the greatest precision one after another, killing and wounding a number of the allies soldiers but not touching the city. Meanwhile the firing of the fleet grew thunderous. It was inn possible to hear yourself think. In a short time it became evident that the fire from the fleet was more danger ous than the bombs from the aero planes, as some of the shells aimed wild, whistled directly over the town. one narrowly missing Major MetaXas, ard a troop of Greek cavalry return ing from exercise.
 Pieces of shells began to drop with frightfuI velocity, one even piercing two floors of a tram station ard burying itself in the ground cellar. The population not under standing what it was all about were greatly excited

SAVE YOUR HAIR
 AND BEAUTIFY IT
 WITH "DANDERINE"
Spend p Cents! Dandruff Dis appears and Hair Stops
 Coming Out.
Try This! Hair Gets Beautiful Wavy and Thick in
 

Few Moments.
 If you care for heavy hair, that gIstens with beauty and is radiant with life; has an incomparable soft ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
 Just one application doubles the beauty of your hair, besides it imme diately disso1ves every particle of dan druff; you cannot have nice, heavy, healthy hair if you have dandruff. This destructive scurf robs the hair If it's lustre, it's strength and it's very life, and if not overcome it produces a feverishness and itching of the scalp; the hair roots famish, loosen and die: then the hair falls out fast.
 If your hair has been neglected and is thin, faded dry, scraggy or too oily, get a 25-cent bottle of Knowl- tons Danderine at any drug store or toilet counter; apply a little as di- rected and ten minutes after you will say this was the best investment you ever made.
 We sincerely believe, regardless of everything else advertised, that if you desire soft, Iustrous, beautiful hair and lots of it-no dandruff-nO itch ino scalp and no more falling hair vou must use Knowlton's Danderine. If eventually-why rot now?

began in Antioch in Syria continues
in the Antioch in Asia Minor
When in the synagogue the strang-
ers were invited to speak to the con-
gregation, Paul stood up-he Is here
first called Paul, rather than Saul
and began on the common ground
where they stood to tell the familiar
story Of Gods dealings with the chos-
en- people. From every standpoint the
sermon, which was the first mission
one. 1t was full of scripture. You
cannot have first class and efrec-
tive sermon If 1t does not abound in
the living word Of holy writ. Every
minister must constantly watch him
self lest his sermon contain too much
of the daily newspaper and not enough
of the inspired word. 1t was ser
mon full of facts and not all exhorta-
ton. No address really has power
that does not marshall definite infor-
nation. The merely hortatorical dis
course is usually ephemeral. Begin
ming far back in the old testament,
the sermon steered straight course
to Calvary. Like every gospel mes.
sage, 1t led straight to presentation
Of the good news of the Messiah come,
with free offer of salvation to all
men.
So stirred were the hearers that
they wanted Paul to preach again
and between whiles he was thronged
with inquirers eager to hear more
about this way. The popularity of the
message provoked the jealousy of the
Jews, and the missionaries were driv-
'en from the synagogue, but not until
Paul had announced the momentous
decision, 1--WE turn to the Gentiles."
That marked the Rubicon Of Chris
tianity. The new wine OF the living
gospel could not be contained in the
old wineskins Of the Jewish order.
From that day to this the gospel has
been preached to every nation even as
Paul and Barnabas preached 1t to the
Jews.

WHEN THE CHURCH BROKE
BOUNDS.
The International Sunday School
Lesson for May IA 10 "Lo, We Turn
to the Gentiles."-Acts 13:13-52.
(By William T. Ellis.)

. a..
The Rubicon of the Christian
church was crossed by Saul and Bar
nabas in what is now troubled Asia
Minor. They settled forever the
question of whether Christianity was
for the Jews or for the whole world.
That story is the Sunday school les
son for today.
The bounds of the lesson are mark
ed by two Antiochs. There were six,
teen of these cities in the old Alex
andrian empire named for his father
Antiochus by Seleucas Nikator, who
has the remarkable record of having
founded thirty-seyen cities, which he
named after himself or his relations.
The greatest of all was Antioch in
Syria, the city where the disciples
were first called Christian. 1t was
from this place that Saul and Barna-
bas set out.
Those Antioch Christians had too
much sense and too much religion to-
feel that they needed to keep all their
strong members right in their midst.
There is lesson here for the churches
which retain on their roll members
who have moved away and ought to
be active in some other church. The
Antioch congregation freely gave Saul
and Barnabas to the wider work. In
fact, they held solemn service to
set them apart for this mission.
Leaving Cyprus, the two missionar-
ies-who had up to this time been &C
companied by John Mark, who there
proved a quitter-they landed on the
coast of Asia Minor and went into the
other city Of Antioch, which is called
Pisidian Antioch. The lesson which
