DEFENDS INCOME THEORY

WASHINGTON, Sept. - Chairman
Kitchin occupied the entire session Of
the House to-day trying to explain to
members why the Ways and Means
Committee under his leadership, ignored
the repeated recommendations Of the
Secretary Of the Treasury and insisted
on incorporating in the new revenue bill
the differential on distributed and un-
distributed income and the high excess
profits schedule.
Consumption taxes, which the COM
mittee has avoided with great deal OF
care, probably must be written into the
measure to make up the deficit from
beer taxes, Mr.. Kitchin admitted to-day.
The tax of $6 a barrel on beer was
counted upon to raise In twelve month
period s2+0,000.00c. That much must be
made up from consumption taxes on coffee,
sugar tea, cocoa and similar articles OF
very general consumption, he indicated.
1t will not be necessary TO provide for
raising a full s240, 100000 before the
end OF the present fiscal year through
the consumption taxes. II Is estimated
by members of the Ways and Means
| must be so arranged that about $780,
900. 900 must be raised through consump-
ton taxes before July l. 1919. There
after each year s24O.OOO,0O0 will have to
be raised in that manner. members OF
the committee believe.
They may make such changes in the
! measure in revising the House taxes
| that a far larger revenue will be pro-
duced through consumption taxes.

PARIS, Sept. 5.-Vladlm.r Bourtzeff.
the well known revolutionary publicist
has come out with a series Of accusa-
tions against certain persons who fig
ured as LEADERS" of Russian democracy.
He openly accused the Bolshevist chief
tains OF being agents In the pay Of Ger
many. but what is more surprising. he
cast the gravest suspicion upon Keren-
sky.
Bourtzeff Is resuming in Paris the
publication of his newspaper, Obshche
Diaeresis e Delo, which was suppressed
in Petrograd by the Kerensky Govern
ment. under the title Of lie Cause Com
rune. This organ will publish an article
In which Bourtzeff calls on KerenslSy to
explain his conduct in the we'll known
Korniloff affair. He expresses surprise
that Kerensky so long evaded this criti-
cal issue. and II may be assumed by the
general tone OF the article that further
and even more searching questions will
be put Extracts from Bourtzeff's COM
ing article speak for themselves:
branded KOrniIoT ms Traitor.
THE failure of Korniloff's enterprise
Of September. 1917, is intimately asso-
clated with the name Kerensky.
Kornilof WAS then the incarnation OF
Russia's hope Of victory over Bolshevists
and Germans. Without any
crime motive on his part. korniloff wal
branded as traitor and It was only
thanks to the efforts OF a commission
appointed to investigate his case that ht
escaped the death OF DuKhonon.

A Humble Worker.

He does not look like a very impor-
tant part Of a big automobile organi-
zation, this stopped, grizzled man. but
the president of a great motorcar COM
pany, according to Popular Science
Monthly, says, that Magnet Bill saves
his salary dozen times over every
day he works. Rain or shine. summer
or winter, Magnet Bill may be seen
walking slowly about the automobile
plant, his eyes fixed on the ground.
He gets his nickname from the fact
that his rools consist solely of tin
bucket and big steel magnet,
strappei to the end Of a shovel handle.
1t is his duty to save automobile tires
by removing from the roadway every
nail and piece Of metal that might
cause tire puncture. Thousands Of
cars are run over this roadway to
the testing place. and without the pre-
cautions taken by Magnet Bill the cost
for cut and punctured tires would
amount to many thousands Of dollars
yearly.

THE SCIENTIFIC ARGUMENT.


1t is the day of the economic argu-
ment against the liquor traffic, says
the Union Signal.
The appeal to the 'bank account
nerve" is undoubtedly tremendously
convincing and should not be mini
.mized. However, we believe that for
all ages and classes of people the
basic, fundamental argument present
ed by science as to the real nature of
alcohol, If rightly understood, settles
the liquor problem with a finality that
silences our opponents and awakens
the Indifferent as does no other pre-
sentation of the subject. When you
have once convinced an intelligent hu-
man being that alcohol in any form
or quantity is a deadly protoplasmic
poison to all the living tissues; that it
stops the processes of evolution in tho
human race; that it not only retards
but destroys those faculties which
make for Intellectual and moral abil-
lutely, and he does not attempt to
cavil or indulge in sophistries on per-
sonal liberty, revenue, or states rights.
Some forty years ago the women of
the w. G. T. U. set out to put scientific
temperance teaching into every public
school in the United States. They sue
ceeded. The result was that a genera
ton grew to manhood and woman
hood to whom the evils of alcohol
were us real as death. 1t Is this that
has sealed the doom of the drink traf-
fic

More Uses for Toast.

Saving stale bread by making it into
toast is an economy. In many fami-
lies, toast is served only for breakfast,
luncheon, or supper, but the custom
which many high-grade restaurants
have adopted of serving thin, crisp,
hot toast with the more substantial
meals Right well be followed at home.
Such dishes as chopped meat with
gravy, creamed chicken or fish, pOach-
ed eggs, melted cheese, cooked aspara-
gus, Swiss chard, baked tomatoes, etc.,
are served very commonly on toast.
Cream or milk toast (that is, toast with
cream sauce or milk gravy, perhaps
favored with a very little Clipped
beef, salt fish, or other savory) may
be used at the main dish at breakfast,
luncheon, or supper. Slices of toast
may also be dipped in water or milk
and beaten egg and lightly Drowned on
a hot creased pan. 1t may be used at
breakfast, and has the advantage Of
making the eggs 'go further" than II
used in a separate dish, or it may be
served with cinnamon and sugar, sirup,
or any sweet sauce for dessert.

HOW THE DRINK TRAFFIC
"HELPS BUSINESS"

Judge Wilbur F. Bryant of Harting-
ton, Neb., voted against statewide
prohibition when the amendment was
before the people of that state. Now,
he says, nothing could induce him to
vote for its repeal. $50 far" he says
'we see nothing but its good effects.
If bad effects appear later, our chill
dren may be trusted to settle the busi-
ness. The claim that the traf-
fic in alcohol drinks is an economic
benefit is an empty and barren alb
surdity. 1t helps business in the same
way that fire helps business. Sup
pose that all of Harrington, west of
Broadway was burned down. What a
flood of insurance money would rush
into the banks! Think of the lumber
which would be sold at the yards
Think of the nails and hinges which
would be sold ut the hardware stores !!

Meat is only one of the foods which
furnish that bodybuilding material,
protein. Cheese, milk, eggs, beans,
peas, cereals, and nuts contain 1t in
plentiful amounts. Take cottage
cheese, for example. 1t is richer in
protein than meat. You can eat a
third Of cupful of it with relish, and
this third of cupful will give you
as much Of the protein as a quarter
Of a pound of sirloin steak-a good,
generous serving. Or If you like baked
beans eat a cupful to get the same
amount of protein. The child to grow
must have food that furnishes this kind
Of bodybuilding material. You need
1t, too. Even if you are grown up you
must have 1t to renew parts of your
body used up by work and exercise.
Eat meat substitutes occasionally,
and you save a fighting material. Peas,
beans, peanuts, and cereals are cheap
er than meats and good to eat. They
should be used, but eat some milk or
cheese besides. Here are some sug-
gestions:
Kidney Bean Stew.

Of cold water. Cook the beans slowly
In the water in which they soaked.
[. necessary, add more water to cover
and continue the cooking until they
are nearly tender, usually about two
hours. Wash the rice, cut up the
onion and add with the tomatoes to
the beans. Cook until rice Is tender
about 80 minutes. Mix the -four with
little cold water and stir in careful
ly to thicken. A small piece Of salt
pork cut up In cubes and added to the
beans at the beginning of the cooking
gives a pleasant flavor to the dish.
This stew will make a whole meal

THEODORE ROOSEVELT ON PRO-
hIRIIlQN.

When we must feed our army and
help the armies Of our allies. not a
bushel of grain should be permitted
to be made into intoxicating liquor.
Neither the men in the army nor the
men engaged in doing vital work for
the army in connection with railroads,
factories. mines and shipyards should
be allowed to waste strength and
health In drink at this time. The same
reasons that render 1t necessary to
prohibit the sale of liquor to soldiers
in uniform, or within a given number
Of miles from military camp, and to
stop its use on battleships, apply to
extending similar protection for all
citizens engaged in the work Of rail-
roads, factories, mines and shipyards.

BEST PLACE FOR SEED CORN
Well Ventilated Room With Artificial
Heat, II Needed, Should Be Had
for Curing.

Word is being sent to the farmers
Of Minnesota to take special pains In
drying and storing their seed corn this
fall. @. P. Bull, university farm, st.
Paul, secretary of the state commit
tee of food production and conserva-
ton, says:
"The amount of moisture to be re-
moved from the corn this fall Is larger
than usual. A well ventilated room
with artificial heat, If needed, should
be provided for curing. Care should
be taken, however, not to dry the
corn too rapidly. The temperature of
the drying room should be kept some
where between go and 10 degrees. The
ears should be hung up by the double
string method or should be put on
hangers or trees; 1t should not be
dumped In pile In bin.
"A double allowance, If 1t can be
had, should be saved, In order to ad-
NIT of more rigid selection next
spring.
1.-THE present indications are that
there will be q good demand for seed
corn"

# BACK HURTS USE
SALTSFOR KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if Kidneys feel like
lead or Bladder
bothers.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clog
ged and need flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery
In the kidney region, severe headaches,
rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid
stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts
Of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in glass Of wa
ter before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon Juice, COM
bined with lithia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. 1t also neu-
tralizes the acids in the urine SO 1t no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious COM
plications.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who be-
lieve in overcoming kidney trouble
while 1t Is only trouble.-Adv.
