ONE TAX THAT HITS MARK.


Tax coal companies, and they pass
it on to the consumer, adding a little
extra gouge for good measure; tax oil
companies. and they pass it on; tax
munition makers, and they pass it on.
The consumer pays in the end.
The one way to reach the wealthy,
and make them bear their just burden
in this war, is through the medium of
the income tax. and the Inheritance
tax. Here are two sources of revenue
where congress need not fear confisca-
ton. The higher the income. the nearer
to confiscation the tax should be. nor
is there any reason why the point of
actual confiscation should not be
reached. Capital Is as necessary as
labor to the conduct Of the war.
Wealth, in the form of income, is not.
The two systems Of taxation work in
opposite ways. When you tax business.
you either kill 1t and shut off the in
come, or the tax is passed on. The
higher the tax, the higher the cost to
the consumer. When you tax in
comes, the higher the income, the
higher the tax. Then watch the men
with surplus money to invest, scramble
for Liberty bonds which are exempt
from all but inheritance taxes. Get all
you can buy or contract for and hold
them.

SOUR STOMACH.

This is a mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating too
rapidly or too much, or of food not
suited to your digestive organs. If you
will eat slowly, masticate your food
thoroughly, eat but little meat and
none at all for supper. you will more
than likely avoid the sour stomach
without taking any medicine whatever.
When you have sour stomach take one

When women complain of WEAKNESS,

dizziness, floating specks, and similar
ailments, they too often accept these

results of disordered kidneys. Mrs.
