To you who are hit by the new war
tax legislation read the following and
cease grumbling:
By Sydney Smith, an Englishman
Tin 1850.
"The school boy whips his taxed
top; the beardless youth manages his
taxed horse, with a taxed bride, on
taxed road; and the dying English
man, pouring his medicine which mas
paid Z per cent in a spoon that has
paid 20 per cent, makes his will On
an GS stamp and expires in the arms
of an apothecary who has paid Ii
cense of G1OO for the privilege of put
ting him to death. His whole proper
ty is then Immediately taxed up III
per cent. Besides the probate, large
fees are demanded for burying him In
the chancel His virtues are handed
down to posterity on taxed marble, and
he will then be gathered to his fathers
to be taxed no more"
In England at that time there were
taxes levied on lands, houses, horses,
carriages and windows. There was
also an income tax. During the seven
teenth century England was as rabid
In it's policy of tariff production as 1t
Is now in favor of free trade.
In ancient Athens taxes were very
high. So jealous were the Athenians
in the collection of revenues, that
public debtor could, ten days after a
Judgment was obtained, be condemned
and banished forever from public at
fairs. The children and grandchildren
then became responsible. Slaves were
employed to take care of private ac-
counts, because if the government sus-
pected that a citizen was not making
truthful statement to the tax author
tiles. the slaves could be tortured TO
give evidence of their masters AFFAIRS.
Athens extensive taxes were largely
due to the immense officialdom. Enor-
nous numbers of public officials were
dependent upon the government. There
were. public physicians, artists, pro-
fessors. The Athenians were very fond
OF holding great banquets and festi-
vals, the expenses of which were paid
out of the public purse. AT religious
gatherings as many as three hundred
cattle would be sacrificed and distrib-
uted to the people. A public speaker
would be paid for his efforts in ora
tory, and the people paid for listening.
Today, the problem of raising money
for government expenditures occupies
the time of some of the keenest f1nan-
cial brains Of the country. We are now
participating in the greatest war OF
history. We are fighting side by side
with nations which are years ahead

Splendid Work by Woman.

Valuable work was done by DR.. Elsie
Inglis, who died recently. She was the
organizer and head of the Scottish
Women's Hospital units, stated en-
tirely with women, and offered early
in the war to the British government
for service with the forces. Refused
at home, they were accepted by the
French war office, and in the first year
they did valuable work in France.
When typhus broke out in Serbia, Doc
tor Inglis took a unit to that country,
went through the hardships of the re-
treat and was taken prisoner by the
AustrianS. Released in 1916, she set
out for Roumania, where again she
shared in a retreat. From the DObrud-
ia she eventually took her unit to
southern Russia, but the rigOrS of this
campaign had told on her and she fell
a victim to overwork and disease. She
brought her unit safely away with her,
but died when port was reached. Doc
tor Inglis was born in India and edu-
Gated in Edinburgh and Paris.
