Of CHASING articles Of common daily
use as 'nOn-essential' Now that the
war has ended and the need OF cur
failing production has given place
TO an obligation on the part OF all to
speed I'D the country's business in
order to find work for the soldiers
coming out OF service, there is an
overwhelming weight OF public opin-
ion against taxes upon consumption,
but that viii not protect the public
unless It is forcefully expressed.
In the case Of the luxury taxes
the new revenue bill sets up wholly
arbitrary standards Of price on all
sorts Of common articles, such as car
pets and rugs, umbrellas. hats for men,
millinery, hosiery, shirts and many
other articles Of this type, which. II
sold at prices higher than those which
congress deems necessary. must. carry
a percentage tax to be paid by the
purchaser, OF course.
How II Would Work.
Thus If a woman who is careful Of
her appearance, should purchase a
pair OF silk hose at more than 81, she
must pay ten percent upon that part
OF the purchase price which exceeds

This is only one example Of one OF

HELP WITHOUT FR|LLS
NO THEORIES TO HAMPER K. OF
C. IN HELPING PEOPLE.

The Washington Herald, under the
heading, Work That Is Practical
says:
Theories have been thrown in the
discard by the management of the
Knights of Columbus Service Club in
Washington, and service that is prac-
teal is placed at the disposal of sol
diers, sailors and marines Of the
world war.
For the tired and sleepy there are
1876 clean and comfortable beds; for
the unwashed heroes nine shower
baths are provided, with facilities for
shaving, polishing their shoes and
pressing their clothes, with soap and
towels galore; for the hungry hot
and palatable breakfast is served.
But best of all the boys in khaki
are given hearty handshake and a
beaming smile of welcome by Harry
Fitzpatrick, the genial manager, and
Al Joyce, his happy assistant, and
made to feel perfectly at home. And
everything is as free as the air we
breathe.
"Those who have theories on how
to make folks happy and fads con-
corning the human uplift could spend

ANGL|CANS At SEA
SIGNS OF DISRUPTION IN ENG
LiSH CHURCH..

There are several signs of disrup-
ton in the Anglican Church. DR..
Gore, the Bishop of Oxford, has re-
signed his bishopric on account of the
crisis; and all sorts of movements are
abroad for reunion among the sects,
establishment, etc. Disestablish-
ment seems essential before any real
return to the principles of Catholicism
seems possible; and the effort of the
AngliCans to raise large funds for
training their clergy, increasing their
stipends and maintaining religious ed
-ucation in the schools shows that they
are beginning to chafe against control,
which may be exercised by Jews or
atheists, provided the latter sit in Par
lament.
An appeal for reunion comes from
number of army chaplains of differ
ent degrees of Professionalism, who
suggest exchange Of pulpits and the
presence of ministers of various de-
nominations at the induction Of a new
minister of any denomination.

BROTHER JOSEPH DUITOn
HEROIC SUCCESSOR OF SANITY
FATHER DAMIEN REFUSES
PENSION.

Brother Joseph Dutton, who sue
ceeded Father Damien, the martyr, at
the leper settlement On Molokai, has
refused to accept a pension from the
Hawaiian territory. A bill in the leg
islature to give him $50 a month for
life has been tabled at his request.
Brother Dutton said he was in good
health and wanted no reward for his
work among the lepers. He has not
been off the Island Of Molokai for
thirty-three years and has contributed
$4,000 of his own money for relief
work.
Brother Dutton is convert and
was about to take the Episcopalian
orders, when he began to study the
Catholic faith. He was received into
the Church by the Dominican Fathers
at Memphis, Tenn, April q, 1883. In
1886 he joined Father Damien in his
work among the lepers Of Molokai
and has lived there continuously
since. Brother DuttOn, who was born
in Stowe, VT, is 76 years old. He
was educated at the Old Academy,
GAINESVILLE, Wis. In 1861 he enlisted
in Company B of the Thirteenth Wis
consin Infantry and served through
the Civil War until the final muster
out.
