TAX ON FURS.

Chicago Herald EXaminer)
The Treasury Department, adjust
ing taxes on luxuries, has placed furs
among the luxuries. We do not pro-
fess the ponderosity of judgment nee
essary to qualifying for adjusting
such taxes, but it strikes us, from our
simple and childish viewpoint, that
furs are:
In Winter-a necessity.
In Summer-plain asininity.

Of several weeks have been attempt

fitness" to America through the sink
ing of vessels off the Atlantic coast,
have decided to carry the war to the
shores of America. This was the view
taken by many officials of the attempt
by a German submarine to gas the
members of the crew of the coast
guard station at Smiths Island, N. c.,
by spreading oil from which mustard
gas was generated over the waters
near the island. Navy department dis
patches said that, although six mem.
bers of the coast guard were overcome
by the fumes, no serious after effects
were noted.
At the navy department it was de-
clared that the new plan Of warfare
being waged by the German undersea
craft would be n6 more successful
than the attempts to destroy American
shipping.

who wrapped it around his neck and
gave a grotesque exhibition Of dane

revolver, looked on and cheered. This
was the story told here by survivors
of the vessel, who were forced to wit
ness the performance and were knock
ed about when they failed to move as
rapidly as the commander ordered.
The flag was flung down and stamped

Artificial Indiqo.

Chemists discovered by research
years ago the process of making arti-
fetal indigo, but it was only when a
thermometer broke in the solution that
they found out now to make the indigo
cheap enough to be commercially val
liable. The mercury so increased the
yield Of a certain acid that the process
was cheapened sufficiently to'make ar
tidcial indigo less expensive than ma
tural indigo.

The English Record

There has been latent hate Of Eng
land In United States ever since our
republic was formed. There was good
reason for this during the first fifty
years of our national life, but Eng
lands friendship for us has been
shown on several occasions during
the last forty years In q way which
kept other countries from meddling
with our affairs In the western hem
isphere. During the battle Of Man
lila; again, In a diplomatic way, at
Washington during the Spanish
American war the English kept the
Germans from butting in OH at least
two we'll remembered occasions and
stood by us on other occasions when
we needed = friend. The English
learned u lot by their experience with
the American colonies and the result
has been the development Of that
country into the greatest colonial en-
pire in the world and the loyalty Of
the colonies to the mother country
Is one Of the most striking things of
the Great War. Without the English
bulldog grit and the English navy
the Allied cause would have been
lost many months ago. 1t was Eng
lish tenacity which overthrow Napo-
leon; every alliance formed against
him was lead by Great Britain and
after more than fifteen years fighting
the English and Prussians won the
battle of Waterloo and Napoleon died
q prisoner on st. Helena. Tho debt
OF Great Britain at the end of the
Napoleonic wars was s6OO per capita,
even more than 1t 10 at present. Now
gallant France, plucky England and
determined America have the big Job
Of winning this war for world democ-
racy. We are not ashamed of our
allies and we know the God Of battles
is with us.-Hayden Republican.

when she comes q tearing like every old

Then your hat travels full many block,
swept by a zephyr that acts like gale,
You In full chase mn you're breathlsss
and pale.

scrambled and battered and not worth q

Don I take you long In discovering that
Your temper is ruffied much worse than

I,nreheaded chase brings pneumonia, grip,
Gout, infiuenzs-an ambulance trip,
Doctors and pouitices, nurses and drugs,
Soup 'till you're fnmished and bills I'LL
you're bugs.
