DECIDES TO
BE A LIVE ONE
YOUNG MAN COMES BACK

One Of our young men sure has come
to the front in short order and his
friends are at a loss to understand his
untiring energy and ability to work
and get results, where only a few
weeks before he seemed to be all run
down and almost nervous wreck.
Questioned by curious friend as to
the cause OF the sudden change, he
said: Il sure was in bad shape and
no one knew it better than~I did. It
had my goat for fair. I was all in and
my nerves shot to pieces with worri-
ment and sleepless nights. One day I
overheard customer telling what
Phosphated Iron had done for him,
and / could not get a supply quick
enough.
That's the whole story, Just Phos-
plated Iron. My poor tired overwork-
ed nerves just seemed to be Phos-
phate-hungry, the way they took hold
OF it, and say, what relief. I felt
like new man. Could sleep at night,
and get up in the morning feeling like
two-year-old. Believe me, had
some appetite too; my weight increas-
ed rapidly, my face filled out and had
the color Of perfect health that only

CORSET TAX UNFAIR
TO FAT ONES, PLEA
MADE TO SENATOR

WASHINGTON, July 16.-The In
diana senators get great many I'M
usual petitions and memorials and
they expect in the course of a days
business to receive a dozen or so re-
lating to subjects ranging from the
cattle tick to a proper plan for finan-
cling the railroads.
One of the most unusual of all such
petitions was one received by Senator
New short time ago in which the
removal of the luxury tax on corsets
was asked on the theory that the tax
was a discrimination against fat wom-
en-. This petition apparently had been
signed by most of the women of one
small Indiana town and the last sig
nature on the document was the name
of the towns "corsetiere."
eve. the undersigned citizens Of In
DIANA" the petition read, respectfully
petition and pray that the revenue
war tax on ladies' corsets as listed in
the luxury tax bill in which all corsets
amounting to an excess of S. shall be
taxed 10 per cent, be repealed. We
respectfully show and represent that
this provision operates and works an
injustice in this, to-wit:
l. "a SuUSIdulldl, SOOu COISeI Cdu

$500.
Easy for Slim Ones.
90. That the smaller persons or rath-
er more slender persons are able to
procure a corset for the sum of So
and thereby avoid paying the special
tax as provided in said bill and this
amounts to discrimination between
the small and slender person and the
large or portly person and is there
fore violation of the constitutional
rights of citizens, and a discrimina-
ton between citizens Of equal stations
in life, based simply upon their ply
steal size.
"3. The larger or more portly per-
son finds the corset an absolute ne
cessity and is because of such size
compelled to pay war tax, when as a
matter of fact the necessity for the
slender or smaller person is met with
out a war tax, thus showing clearly
that 1t is not a discrimination Of price,
but a discrimination in amount Of
goods and material required to meet
the requirements Of the two, or differ
ent size persons. 1t being a we'll es-
tablished and well-known fact among
manufacturers, and for that matter all
persons, that the larger person will
require a larger corset, and therefore
more material in the corset and more
labor incident to the production Of
such corset, yet it is no more of a
luxury for the larger person than for
the smaller or slender person.
a. Under present conditions of ma
terial and labor, and with the rise in
prices in all matters, it is not possible
to procure a suitable and substantial
commodity in the way Of corset for
the sum of IS.
IS. The corset is in no sense lux
ury but necessity"
The petition was referred to the fl
nance committee of the senate by Sen
ator New, and doubtless by this time
Senator Penrose and the other finan-
cial sharks are giving close attention
to the gross discrimination alleged by
the women of this Indiana town.

To Enlarge Mexican Work.
B. Willis Beede, who recently spent
two months in Mexico studying con-
ditions there, made special appeal
to the foreign mission committee for
more intensive work in the Mexican
field Beede contended that mission
airy work is very welcome by the
people of Mexico. not only by the Of
ficials, but by the lower classes Of
citizens.
There are great opportunities for
Christian education and religion in
Mexico, and we have an obligation
and opportunity which we must not
fail to meet" said Beede.
In respect to the existing conditions
and the belief that more intensive and
thorough work must be done in the
Mexican field, it has been decided to
increase the corps of workers from
seven to thirteen.
