RUSSIAN COALITION
GOVERNMENT SOON
Program will Not Be Changed
by New Regime.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Construction
of the coalition national government
of all parties in Russia was reported
in official dispatches to the embassy
here from the foreign Office at Petro-
grad to be progressing but not yet
complete.
Two broad principles have been an
nounced.
First is that the new government
shall not in any way change the pro-
gram, internal or foreign, as set out
repeatedly by the present government.
Second is that the new members
though appointed to represent the
various parties, shall not be RESPONSE
BILE to their parties, but shall be given
complete discretion and freedom of
action.
At present there is still rift be-
tween the bourgeoise and the more
radical parties The former insist that
social reforms shall not be undertaken
until the constituent assembly meets
in October and that the council of
workmen's and soldiers delegates
shall not exercise a predominating in
fuence on the government. The radi-
cal parties are accusing them of pur-
posely hindering the government

Why Japan Cannot Be Starved.

Why Japan Cannot Be Starved.
Two Of the most interesting sights in
Tokyo are the fish market at Nihom-
bashi and the Mitsukoshi department
store, very near the Billingsgate Of
Tokyo. Nihombashi is not only the
geographical center Of Tokyo, but Of
Japan, according to the japanese, who
ought to know. Here Is situated what
is probably the largest fish market in
the world. There is every kind Of fish
a man could mention and few thou
sand other varieties. Some big fellows
cut up into great steaks, weighing ten
pounds or SO, and there are little ones
which would make good minnow bait,
If one could find Q hook small enough
not to mangle them. think that in
certain sections they must use cham
OILS skin for a fish net and save every
thing that does not pass through the
pores. Until the sea dries up around
Japan the islands will never starve.-

GERMAN FINANCE TOTTERING
U. S. Sees crumbIing of System in
Frantic Quest for Gold.

WASHINGTON, ID. C. - A curious
shrinkage in the German gold reserve,
reported from abroad, attracts inter
est here as possibly foreshadowing
crumbling of the German financial
system which up to now has borne the
immense load placed upon it.
Observers here are at loss to ac-
count for the shrinkage, but give pos
sible causes. One is that Germany, I'M
able to maintain her balance of trade
with contiguous neutrals, is being
forced to export gold in payment. An
other is that Bulgaria and Turkey re-
fuse to take German bank notes, and
a third that actual gold is needed for
the immense propaganda work that
Germany is conducting in Russia and
ether countries.

Mrs. George Hammes, 1908 Ravine

in bad shape. The first symptoms were
severe backaches and pains across my
hips. Then had headaches and dizzy
spells, and ! was nervous and felt mis-

causing this. trouble, so / used Doan's

The Word Umbrella.

The English word umbrella is very
like the Latin, coming through the
Italian CINDERELLA" or little shade. :
The French, German, Spanish and 9th
ers give it a distinctive name, such as
"parapluie," ''regenschirm" and para
guas.'
Umbrella and .'parasol" are ety.
mologically precisely the same thing.
but custom has given them the dis
tinctions that we understand today.

WAR TAXES SENT
To TWO BILLION

ed on by Senate Committee.
CORPORATION INCOMES hit

Individual Incomes of $4,000 Expect
ed to Furnish $4,000, 900 More.
Beer Tax Fixed at 1925 Per Barrel.
income Taxes of All Kinds to Pro-
duce Over Billion.
WASHINGTON, d. C.-Increase of
the pending S1,67O,0O0,000 war tax bill
to total of $2,008,000,0 900 was decided
upon by the senate finance commit
tee. Increases on corporation normal
income taxes, on incomes of individ-
uals Of $4,000 and over and a further
increase OF 81 per gallon on distilled
spirits and so cents barrel more on
beer, with few other minor tax in
creases, will make up the additional
levy.
Income Tax Raised.
The committee decided to increase
the present 2 per cent normal rate on
corporate incomes to per cent, as
against per cent in the bill as orig
inally drawn. 1t is expected to yield
$162,000,000 additional revenues. The
increase in SurtaX rates on individu-
al incomes of $4,000 and more was
estimated to raise from $25 ,000,0 to
$36,000,O00 additional. New excess
profits taxes will be agreed upon
later.
Liquor Taxes Higher.
In revising the liquor schedules the
committee estimated that by adding
81 per gallon to the tax on distilled
spirits, making it 1920 per gallon
$2.10 over the present law-$9O,00O
900 more revenue would be secured
from that source. The increase of so
cents barrel on beer was estimated
to yield $25,0O0,000 more revenue,
making the beer tax 1925 per barrel,
as compared with $3.50 under existing
law and s2.75 as originally proposed in
the bill
The exact rates of the surtax in
creases on individual incomes of $15,-
900 and more were not decided.
Would Yield $1,049, zoe, ZOO.
The income tax increases would re-
suit in total levy upon corporate and
individual incomes of the war of at
least $1,049, 100000, as compared with
a yield of $33O,OOO,OOO a year under ex-
listing law. The original bill provided
for additional war leyies upon all in
comes of $543, 100000, and the com.
mittee's decisions would add at least
$1S7,000,O00 more.
In view of the heavy increase for
incomes, it was stated that the COM
mittee might decide against further
increase on excess profits.

Mushrooms are allowed to go to

put the sheet of paper in an envelope,
wrote on it 1.-THE Prince Charming
