Your Duty.
RAcE 81

1t is your duty-a patriotic
duty to eliminate waste-to
spend your money wisely, and
with intent to retain that
which is bought.
Merch andise purchased
thoughtlessly, only to be re-
turned later, involves waste
of time and effort, decreased
efficiency, and, ultimately, fl
nancial loss to the public as
we'll as the merchant.
We appeal to you for aid in
helping us to support the plan
Of the Commercial Economy
Board Of the Council Of Nat
ionaI Defense by eliminating
the much abused and thought
less habit Of buying that
which you do not went, then
returning it.
Re you win do this, you will
contribute much toward elm
mating a useless expense.

A Prosperous Community

Wayne county is harvesting its crops.
Thousands of dollars are being released daily.
Farmers are receiving golden returns for the
hard work of last fall and spring
This money will be left in Wayne county.
It will go to pay for farming machinery and tools,
for household supplies and furnishings.
The whole community will share in the pros
perty of the rural districts, for the basis of ma
tional prosperity is the soil, and all of share in
its bountiful return at harvest time.
Wayne county has always been rated pros
porous district of Indiana
The returns from this years harvest will in
crease the wealth per capita here. Merchants and
workers will share in the money that the farmer
receives for his crops.
From now until October, the agriculturist will
be busy with the harvest. Almost every day
win see hundreds of them in the market selling
their crops or disposing Of the cattle and hogs
they have raised.

with the complacency which often characterizes
the disposal of other peoples money. Mr.. Nc
Adoo and Mr.. Kitchin especially talk OF billions
as if they were cranberries But neither man
has or deserves the confidence of the nation to
such an extent that unparalleled proposals can be
accepted offhand. Mr.. Kitchin in a moment OF
guileless candor declared that he would vote for
the tax bill he responsible for with his eyes
shut" but the country is not going to accept
administration policies and practices with its
eyes shut Mr.. McAdoo meanwhile has shown
that he has dangerously inadequate sense of the
results to be expected from sudden and excessive
exactions and if it be true, as reported, that in
bringing forth his immense new estimates he
proposes to increase war taxes prOpOrtlonately,
on the theory of pay as we go, it is to be hoped
congress will rise out of its confusion and fulfill
ty long enough to listen to and heed safer guides
than Mr.. McAdoo.
The assertion emanates, undoubtedly from
the treasury department, that excess profits of
American business are five billions year. No
estimate of excess profits can be worthy any
such dogmatic statement at this time. It recalls
Mr. McAdoos prediction as to the returns of the
first income tax levy. When they fell considera-
bly, short of the official estimate he made some
rather unpleasant accusations without the sup
port of fact. We hope that we shall have no rep
etiton of this incident over the excess profits es
innate.
If the administration and it's supporters IN
congress have little appreciation of the danger OF
precipitating general business depression, and
even financial panic, by a sudden and overwhelm-
ing imposition of war taxes, can only hope that
congress will do some thinking for itself and do
it under the guidance of experienced business
opinion. War business, we recognize, is going to
be stimulated by these new expenditures OF the
government but we want some consideration for
normal business enterprise, especially of the
smaller kind. It is of primary Importance that
financial and business confidence be conserved
and encouraged at this time. A sudden ava
lanche of almost confiscatory taxes will produce
the opposite effect. We do not think any more
taxes should be raised than are provided for in
the senate BILL and even this measure should be
modified so as to provide fairer test of excess
profits than the earnings Of 1911-13. But GER
tainly if we are to spend five billions more than
at first contemplated in this first year. the talk
of paying as we co. is irresponsible theorizing.

SOME GOOD ADVICE
Strengthened by Richmond Expert.

Kidney disease is too dangerous to
neglect. At the first sign of backache,
headache. dizziness or urinary disor.
ders, you should give the weakened
kidneys prompt attention. Eat little
meat, take things easier and use re-
liable kidney tonic. There's no other
kidney medicine so well recommended
as Doans Kidney Pills. Richmond
people rely on them. Here's one of
the many statements from Richmond
people.
William Cooper, Ala S. 18th ST..
Richmond, says: MY back was weak
and lame and ached great deal.
Whenever 1t became too bad, used
Doan's Kidney Pills and they never
failed to relieve me in short time.

right and advise anyone to get a box

troubled in this way"
