SELT TAXATION.

People in general seem to enjoy
growing about taxes. This subject
makes a tlcmc for conversation in the
family. It inspires the foungcrs i'll
the corner grocery, and ii puts life
into many a political campaign. Why
our forctathcrs actually plunged into
rebellion, fought seven years, and final
~ won Our national Independence from
Great Britain, on a question of taxes
Ii You want to see a 'hOt' town
meeting i'll a back country township
just propose an extra tax for some
new road and a bridge.
And vet there is one sort of tax
that is not grumhicd at Shat is to
say, the taxpayers themselves rarely

erS are cut off.
We refer 10 the tax which men pay
to passion and appetite. The sums
thus expanded every year-say for to-
bacco and liquors only-are stipend
Gus. This sort of tax paving begins
early In life, when the youngstcr gets
into the habit of treating himself to
cider, beer, ale, porter, whiskey, 4 Gig
arctic or cigar. After a bit he
cant get along without it, and 81
he binds himself to paw taxes to it all
his life. He growls about his road
tax when he grows up, his school fax,
and his church tax, but his self-indul-
gencc tax he passes out without n
murmer even though it may have made
him poor man. Sometimes he is con
scious of it, hut he has become a slave
to hrs habits and cannot free himself
The socialists do a great deal of growl-
ing about the burdens put by capital
upon the poor. The worst burden pow
erty has to bear is the tax which it
voluntarily pays to appetite and pas
sion.

gold stars to it's service flag and
many subordinate councils are paying
the dues of their members at the
front.
1t was in view OF the heavy call
the government has made on it's
mem bership that the order instituted
a plan to protect Arcanumltes who
were memb ers before Uncle Sam
went into the war and who had en-
tered the army or the navy. For the
purpose of protecting dependents the
government has provided that no SOL
der or sailor shall lo.ie his insurance
IN fraternal society, even If delin-
quent in the payment of assessments.
A report of deiinduents Is made to
fthe war department. which sees to ii
that proper reimbursement is made
by the man in question. Therefore,
no member of tho Royal Arcanum in
the service can be suspended from the
mem bership.
The order has gone further than
this. Instead Of leyying a war pre-
MUM, as Is done by the commercial
life companies. the Royal Arcanum
has made a special provision to pro-
tect the men. This provision is that
when the payments made by the
Royal Arcanum for deaths Of men in
service shall aggregate 100000 each
member shall thereafter pay monthly
for the duration of the war five cents
on each $500 worth of insurance he
carries This rule becomes non-Activc
inm ediately upon the conclusion OF
the war, but II will probably not be
applied for some time to come for
the casualty lists have not entailel
payments that approach this amount
