Song!
The Twcetic-bird sits on a limb
And thinks about matters and things
Till asked for song or hymn,
And this is the song that he sings:
Though papcr-knives dance DER tho
lea,
Though caramels flutter and fall.
IhouEh pussy eats slip in the tea.
There's nothing that matters at ALL"
The owl and the Beetle attend;
They nod and they seem to concur
And now both their voices they blend
In chorus to same, as it were:
There's nothing that matters a bit.
Though weddings and mease)s he,
fall.
Ana many woe we omit,
There's nothing that matters at all.

Toned small boy who used to chew
coffee-esscnce and pretend he was

Demand Due to Practical Uses.

the many practical uses being made OF

OF the motor ear were never better
demonstrated than during the frcigh;

many localities the motor ear was~uscd
almost exclusively for transportation.
This demand for cars is not local
nor is Ii sectional. For tho last month

TAX MEASURE To
REACH EVERYBODY
AFFECTS EVEN THE UNBORN
NOTHING ESCAPES THIS BILL
CANNOT ESCAPE TAXES BP
TRAVELLING.

IRA ELlNUs
WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct q
The 81, zoe, 100000 war tax bill, which
is up for final action in the house,
catches" almost everybody from the
cradle to the grave, and, for good
measure, 1evies a few taxes ON the
heirs.
Babys first dash of talcum will, un-
der the l per cent manufacturers tax
on cosmetics, help Uncle Sam carry on
the war, and after the payers death
the federal collectors will be on hand
to get the inheritance tax, at advances
on the present rate from per cent. on
10000 to 10 per cent. on 100000. Be
tween birth and death most of mans
activities would be taxed, voting
proxy at a meeting Of cemetery asso-
citation being one of the few speci~
fically exempted.
Those who have proited most by the
war, the recipient of enormous excess
war profits, will pay the most to help
carry it on Almost half the total
amount of the bill, or about 81 100000
coo, is to be collected from them.
The person who writes a postal
an-d in h. oo,ubf for cards will cell
for two cents each by the provisions OF
the bill. Letters will be three cents.
One will be taxed when he goes to a
moving picture show, if the admission
is over five cents, one-tenth of the
cost of the ticket, That rate will affect
all who attend amusements from the
man in the gallery to the one in the
box A host of stamp taxes, designed
to raise $4,000, 900. also will get the
man with little money in many ways.
His greatest consolation is that the
consumption taxes, which would have
made him pay on coffee, tea and sugar,
were stricken from the bill.
The man of moderate means, as well
as the wealthy is affected by the In
come tax section Normal rates have
been doubled, and exemptions lowered
to 81 900 for single persons and $4,000
or married ones. Sur-taXes. for in
comes above $4,000 ranged from l to
30 per cent, the maximum applying
to incomes over $1,OOO0OO,00O This
section is expected to raise $1,000
10000.
Included in the taxes imposed on
manufacturers are leyies of one-quar-
ter a cent a foot on motion picture
films, 2 per cent. on the sale price Of
chewing gum and 3 per cent. on auto
mobiles. musical instruments and jew
elry.
Even drawing ones tax troubles
in drink. or sending them up in smoke
will cost more, for the levies on ali
kinds of drinks and tobacco soar. The
new rate on whisky is $2.10 per gal
lon, and beer $3.50 a barrel. Wine
taxes will be about doubled, and even
grape juice will be taxed a cent a gol-
Ion.
A person cannot escape taxes by
Eight per cent is assessed on
passenger tickets, and steamer tickets
also pay tax
Some confusion and misinterpreta-
ton has arisen out of the wording of
the section imposing stamp taxes on
instruments which has been
to mean that tax has
been placed on bank checks
The bill says drafts or checks pay
able otherwise than at sight or on de-
mand," etc, two cents for each 500.
The ocffiial Interpretation of this sec
ton is that as a check is payable at
sight end on demand it therefore is
excluded from tax.
