Chairman Kitchin and other men,
bers of the house ways and means
committee being welded to the idea
that the best way to raise more rev.
enue is to increase the excess profits
tax, rather than to impose war prof
it's tax, Secretary of the Treasury Nc
Adoo was compelled to go before the
committee with mass of figures 10
sustain his contention that the war
profits tax method is the best and only
fair one. In reply to Kitchin's asser-
ton that a war profits tax was "only
camoufiage to let out the big fellows"
the secretary produced figures to show
that in a great majority of cases the
war profits tax would fall more heav-
lily on the large concerns than would
the excess profits tax, which, if fixed
at so per cent as the committee pro-
posed. he said would touch not more
than one of the large corporations. He
favors the continuance of the existing
excess profits tax, with corrections but
without increase. He also urged heav-
Ter levies on unearned incomes than
on earned incomes, and the imposition
of O tax upon servants as luxur1es.
The secretary impressed on the
committee the necessity Of passing the
new revenue bill before September %,
the date set for launching the fourth
Liberty loan campaign, saying that
further delay would jeopardize the
ability of the treasury to sell sufficient
treasury certificates TO finance it in
the intervals between the Liberty
loans. In Washington most of the de-
lay in passing the measure is expect
ed to develop in the senate.

RED CROSS NOTES

Commenting on the marvellous ef- ficiency of the Red Cross, Secretary Baker said: "When one is in the zone of the armies in the supply areas, words of appreciation of praise for the American Red Cross seems superfuous. Now, dear women of Prescott, we are sure that you feel that you would like to have a part in this great and noble work, and that you feel that Red Cross service is Y privilege, and every true Red Crosser believes that it is a privilege to help win the war, through the channels of the Red Cross in volunteer service. So next week we hope to have great crowds of women at the Red Cross work rooms. The attendance at the sewing room Friday was fine. The twenty-five ladies registering for work with Mrs. R. l.. Blakely as cap tain, were: Mesdames A. C. Hawkins J. C. Williams, Eugene Reichstadt, w. c. Mutt, Geo. w. Hornbeck, Clevc Stivers, Urah Champagne, F.. Y. Blakely. c. R. Haynie, Lee Mont gomery, Jim White, Geo. Peachey, G. W. Hudson, Jno. Stripling, Jno. A. Davis, s. T. White, H. " Scott, J. o. Vandiver, Chas. Pittman, Clifton Ar mold, Joe R. Hamilton, L. k. Roberts. Misses Laura Ward, Lila McCollum and Carrie Thorburn.
 The Junior Red Cross is doing fine work, and the following members were present and worked on the quilts for the Belgian babies, under the di- rection of Miss Carrie Thorburn Urleen Vandiver, Pauline Sullivan Hazel Cornelius, Evelyn Hale, Louise Garrett, Cora Sharp, Lucie White and Mabel Lumpkin. We were pleased to have as visitors Friday Judge c. R Haynie, and Mesdames A. N. Davis and Arthur Jones.

MURDER WILL OUT
Continued from page u

ent, nor overcome the havoc these
questions had created.
Had counsel for the Defense not
had equal knowledge with the State
of what were the true conditions in
that bed room, it would have felt
called upon to have fully disclosed
it. And one man, Fred Lehman, sat
there knowing better than any living
person what the tue situation was in
that bed room when the bullet sped
on it's hellish mission. So the State
felt, under the circumstances, it had
a right to go around the trap being
prepared, and let another spring it.
That it was sprung, and who sprung
it, and how, is ancient history.
Somehow, I never will be rid of
the thought that it was, and naturally
would be, woman's mind that con-
ceived the idea Of the flower pot for
the cartridges, and of laying Grace
out in clean linen; and that wo-
mans hand changed the night dress,
sheets and pillow cases.
Whether time will produce a
guilty, confessing conscience" re-
mains to be seen, but we do know
! that the verdict was just; that nc
judge ever gave a fairer trial than
Lehman had; and that a fouler crime
never has been avenged by sentence
than that crime which cut down one
of the fairest roses of womanhood
ere it had come to full bloom in the
garden of the great love that was
hers on every hand.
Yours,
FRANK S. HAM.

Proper Food for Weak Stomachs

The proper food for one man may
be all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt diet suited to his age
and occupation. Those who have
weak stomachs need to be especially
careful and should eat slowly and
masticate their food thoroughly. 1t
is also important that they keep their
bowels regular. When they become
constipated or when they feel dull
and stupid after eating, they should
take Chamberlain's Tablets to
strengthen the stomach and move the
bowels. They are easy to take and
pleasant in effect.
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1918-05-24
Road to Happiness

Be amiable, cheerful and good ma
tured and you are much more likely
to be happy. You will find this diff
cult, if not impossible, however, when
you are constantly troubled with
constipation. Take Chamberlain's s
Tablets and get rid of that and it
will be easy. These tablets not only
move the bowels, but improve the
appetite and strengthen the diges-
ton.
