REVENUE BILL TO-DAY
Special Tax on Wages or Incomes of
$500 or More of $40 a Year
Tax on Soft Drinks.

Washington, Sept. 20.--Nearing com.
pletion of consideration of the $4,000,
100000 revenue BILL the House struck
temporary stumbling blocks in bitter
fights over the proposed tax on cotton
and an attempt to suspend the tax on
mixed -four as recommended by the food
administration, Both proposals went
out on points of order after some debate.
Representative Moore of Pennsylvania
offered an amendment to tax cotton So a
bale, drawing emphatic protests from
southern members, who accused him of
sectionalism and promptly interposed a
point of order. In the meantime, Repre-
sentative Moore, supported by Represen-
tative Miller of Minnesota, made point
of order against the mixed -four amend.
ment which the ways and means com
mittee had approved. Both points we're
sustained.
Before these controversies started the
House had disposed in short order Of
many amendments approved earlier in
the day by the committee. One that
went through without extended discus
sion was redrafted provision imposing
a special war tax Of $40 on all persons
engaged in occupations and trades earn
ing $500 or more, business or profes-
sions whose incomes exceed $500 a
year The House adopted provision
fixing Nov |, 1918, as the date for taxes
on drinks, soda fountains and ice cream
parlors
Committee amendments were adopted
to make clear that the cigar and cigar
cite taxes are payable primarily by
manufacturers and importers, with re-
tailers subject to the floor or stock tax.
The sporting goods section Of the bill
was broadened to include all sorts of
athletics.
Another committee amendment APP
proved by the House includes places Of
entertainment for soldiers and sailors,
among those exempt from amusement
admission taxes.
The committee recommended and the
House adopted amendments striking out
! the per cent tax on gross receipts of
automobiles for hire, including taxicabs,
and 10 per cent tax on duplicating and
adding machines.
Representative Kitchin announced late
yesterday that passage of the war rev.
enue bill would be postponed until to-
| day to permit consideration by the ways
and means committee of one or two mi.
nor problems.

HIS TROUBLE
STARTED WITH
NUMBNESS
Severe Nervous Condition of Hartford
Man and the Means Through
Which He Found Help,

The efficacy of tonic for the nerves in
serious nervous disordersis the best indica-
tion of the beneficial results Of its use in
minor troubles, since the principal is the
same. The only way to get medicine to
the nerves is through the blood. The
tonic treatment of building up the nerve
centers to perform their normal fune-
tions is the basis of most successful
treatment.
A nervous breakdown with its symp-
toms Of representative nerves, its irrita-
bility, sleeplessness and worry Is often
complicated by the crushing pain Of
pressure ON one or more nerves that is
known as neuritis. If you have nervous
pains do not go to great expense for
treatment until you have tried building
up the blood If you are pale the chances
are very strong that the treatment with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills is all that you
require.
"My trouble statred with numbness in
the feet" says Mr.. Harry La Francis,
of No. 81 Seymour street, Hartford
Conn, and the numb feeling gradually
went up the limbs to my hips. This
was accompanied by pains that were al
most unbearable. The pains were so bad
that at times / could not sleep and often
] would have to get out Of bed the agony
was SO intense. When the disease
reached my spine il affected my limbs
so that / could not walk right. There

DIR. Williams PAX Pills are tonic for
| the blood and nerves. They begin at once
to build up the system weakened by ex-
\ cess or overwork. The rich, red blood
soon begins to show in cheeks and lips,
the step is quicker. the eyes brighter and
the good effect is felt in every organ of
the body.

Der dealers win feel seriously the sweep
ing embargo placed by the government
upon shipments OF forest products, re-
ceived Wednesday afternoon, unless per-
mits are issued TO relieve local dealers
Such permits, at least in some in
stances, are expected TO be allowed, re-
quests for the same having been made
Of the car section service, under whose
direction the embargo Is made.
The order declares that no shipments
can be made from Cans6a or points in
the United States to the northeastern
states or from them, unless the orders
are for the government in one branch
or another The embargo is 80 dras-
tic that public buildings are not ex-
cluded.
An exception il made in the case Of
barrels or other containers, shocks,
slaves, hoops and headings, and this
will save the day for concerns like the
Horatio Hickok company, Cranes and
the box shop at Booths, Just what the
other dealers, such as the Shepard &
Morse Co, Robinson Edwards Co., and
the main part Of Booths Is not yet
known.
Wednesday afternoon the Robinson.
Edwards Co. had 1900 feet Of lumber
bound for Yergennes and could not ship
it.
They had some cars nearly loaded,
but as soon as the order was received,
work was suspended and whether they
will be accepted for shipment later is
not known.
The order states that the movement
Of commercial shipments of forest prod
ucts to enlarged points (which means
everywhere so far as Burlington is con.
cerned) viii be controlled through the
issuance Of permits of the car service
section or by the freight traffic com
mittee upon presentation by the con
signees of evidence which justifies trans
portation service. No permits will be Is
sued except from the point at which the
shipment actually originates and to the
final destination The reconsignment OF
shipments is prohibited. Shipments in
transit are now accepted.

Such bombardment always has been pos

Six TeaspOonfuls a Day Per Person.

1t is puzzling for many Barre house
keepers to know how to divide the pres
ent sugar allowance of two pounds per
person per month 80 as to make the
amount reach over the specified time
The United States food administration
has issued an interesting little guide
which may help.
The approximate daily ration per per
son would be one ounce or six level tea
spoonfuls, three teaspoons for beverages
and three for cooked food; or three
humps for beverages and three for cook
ing.
AS all members of families are not
equally fond of sweets, some fair-mind.
ed housekeepers have purchased individ-
ual sugar bowls and each member re-
ceives his allotment. In this way the
members afflicted fifth sweet tooth
cannot impose on their more selfdeny-
ing relatives,
There are 90 level as rounded, or 32
to 40 heaping teaspoons in one pound Of
sugar, using an ordinary household tea
spoon.
