UNCLE SAM AND
 BROTHER JONATHAN

BROTHER JONATHAN-I have been doing some hard thinking
 UNCLE SAM-You need it badly; hope it has done you good.
 B. J.-Can't say it has. The more l think on this question of taxation, that the tax reformers are talking so much a bout, the more mixed l get.
 [. S.-And yet is as easy as roll ing off a log.
 B. J.-That may be. But -I can't get rid of the idea that taxes are in the nature of burden upon the peo- pie.
 U. S.--All the people?
 5. J.-Yes.
 L. S.--I think l see your difficulty. ' You are preoccupied with middle class modes of thought. See here. We are living under the Capitalists system of Skin not under any of the Systems of Skin that have previously prevailed. Do you think you have a clear idea of what the Capitalists System of Skin means?
 B. J.-To be frank, don't think 1 have.
 U. S.-To get clear idea thereof, it is best to contrast it with the pre- yious the feudal or landlord system.
 5. J.-I think 1 understand that system.
 U. S.-Don't be too nasty. Under the feudal system the vassal was al- lowed to operate, as his own, DOT tions of the lords land The pro- ceeds of that labcr Were his own. In payment for this privilege, he had however to work one or two or more days for the lord exclusively on the lords domain. Say that the lord de- ulanded two days work on those days the vassel's work was the lords The vassel had the other five days for himself, Under this system, you perceive, there is no attempt to cover Up the fact that the lord appropriated some one else'slabor.
 B. J.-None whatever
 U. S.-Now suppose that besides the proceeds of those two days work the lord wanted more.
 B. J.-He would then demand of the vassal that he work for him three ! days
 '. S.-That was one way. Another and quicker one of getting at the goods was to levy s tax on the vas gel. Was not that taken out of the wealth that he produced when working for himself and which, therefore be- tonge9 to him?
 B. Just so.
 r. S--Now turn to the capitalist sys- tenn
 B: J. sinks his hands deeper into t-ais pockets.
 U. s.-Does the capitalist work at all?
 B. J.--Not unless spongtng be con sdered working.
 U. S.-Yet he has it all?
 B. J.-Every bit.
 IT. S.--Who works?
 B. 1.-The working class.
 r G,-Does the capitalist say to the wagc earner: Here is my factory. If you work two days for me- I shall let ,-ou work the other five days for yourself.
 B. J. looks blank.
 IT. S.-Not much. He says Work six or seven days in the week and I shall give you $s or $9." Do you not

Brains Over Question Propounded
by Teacher.

Here IS q little story that was told
at a social session by Representative
Hubert D. Stephens Of Mississippi as
an illustration that the best Industrial
results cannot always be obtained
through team work:
Some time since, the teacher OF a
public school in a country town was
instructing a juvenile class in mathe-
matics when she turned to a small boy
named Tommy.
Tommy" said she, IF your father
can do a piece OF work in six days and
your uncle Jim can do IT in seven days.
how long would it take them to do II
togetherT
About ten thousand years" was the
rather startling rejoinder Of Tommy.
Ten thousand years. exclaimed
the teacher. "Why, Tommy. what do
you meanT
Il mean" was the prompt response
Of Tommy, that II you put them 10
work together they would sit on the
fence, smoke and swap fish stories. =

Lilac Blossom.

One Of Frances war gardeners OF

his plants, instead Of tending his gar
den merely as a way TO help out with
the food supply. Like most war gar
deners. he did not give his attention
exclusively TO vegetables but planted q
few flowers, and II was with these that
he had conspicuous success

HUNS APPLY TORCH
TO COVER RETREAT
BLOW UP MUNITIONS DUMPS
AND BURN STORES WHICH
THEY COULD NOT REMOVE.
Franco-American Troops Continue
Their Forward Drive, and Germans
Now Evidently Realize That
Allies Have Upper Hand.

With the Army in France.-NOrth Of
the Marine the Germans are making
preparations for a further retreat
In the angle between the Marine and
the Ardre, on the eastern side Of the
salient, the enemy has been blowing
up munition dumps and burning stores
which they have not had time to re-
move. The enemy's position is in a
heavy wooded and broken country,
without main roads and railways in
shape to use.
To feed the SOissOns-Slarne front
the Germans have only one railway
line from the Aisne in the neighbor-
hood Of Mourg to Bazoches. where it
joins the main line OF the Scissors
Rheims road. The latter road is still
in condition for use for certain dis
lance on each side Of BazOches. but
the junction there is being bombed
constantly.
The remaining force Of the enemy
may possibly fall back TO the line Of
Vesle, abandoning the Crise and the
commanding plateau surrounding the
Crise and yesle valleys
That the Germans now realize 10 the
full that the allies have the upper
hand in the battle seems apparent from
reports that they are burning villages
behind them in their retreat and de-
stroying large quantities of munitions
and war materials throughout the en-
tire salient which they have found it
impossible to move, owing TO the rapid
strides Of the allies. Big guns now are
throwing shells far behind the lines,
searching out the entire countryside,
wnile allied airplanes are marrying the
rereatng columns with machine gun
fire
The efforts of the Germans TO re-
tard the Franco-American forces were
particularly heavy Monday in the reg
ion of Grisolles and Bezu-St. German,
respectively northwest and north of
Chateau Thierry, where the Americans
are giving battle. On all three sectors
the enemy lost further ground. and
his forces in the Chateau Thierry
pocket were therefore placed in great
CT jeopardy

Keep a close watch on yourstom-
ach this summer. We need all our
fighting strength. War work
change of diet-will make us all
easier prey to stomach and bowel
trouble than ever before. It is so
easy to become overheated on a
blazing hot day, especially after
eating hearty meal. And then
the excessive heat makes us food
our stomachs with all kinds of
cold drinks. That's bad at any
time; much worse-even danger
ous-when there is the slightest
feeling of stomach trouble.
Keep the stomach sweet and
cool and free from too much acid
that's about all that is neces-
sary. It's not so much the diet
as to keep the poison from start
ing trouble. You can easily do
this if you will just take a tablet or
two OF EATONIC after your meals.

that a husband may kiss his wife
whenever he pleases. whether It
