Certainly the protests against the tax
on fountain drinks, and statene nts of
fountain operators that removal of the
tax would increase business are not
based entirely on the American public's
distaste for handling pennies. It is as
much the cost of the article which,
arouses protest.
Druggists are hoping and expecting
that the tax will be removed before
the end of the year. Mr.. Mellon has
advocated a repeal of the soft drinks
tax, and several bills have provided for
this. The cost of collecting SO small a
tax has been high and druggists and
buyers have from the first protested
that it taxes as Injuries drinks which
people buy as part of a lunch.
The soft drink tax is hanging in the
balance. 1t may continue. In the
meantime, fountain owners of one city
at least-1Marion, Ind..-have solved
the problem of fountain prices and
pennies for the present by absorbing
the luxury tax and charging 10 cents
for a soda, the tax included. This is
lone moderate step toward old prices.

Dorothy DIX Tails
How the other Half Lives-.1.
By DOROTHY DIX
Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.


The magistrate who presides over a
domestic relations court IN New York
has hit upon q novel way of dealing
with wrong stepping husbands. In
stead of sentencing them to Jail he
sentences them to ten days at hard
labor in their own kitchens, or three
months of taking care of a teething
baby, or six months of getting up and
preparing the breakfast, and getting
the family off to work and to school,
or to some other form of household
servitude in which the punishment can
be made to fit the crime.
IF men had any idea Of how never
ending a woman's work is. and of how
nerve wearing the ceaseless calls made
upon her are, they would have more
patience with their wives and treat
them better. / am giving the hus-
bands a chance to find out from actual
experience how monotonous and
dreary domestic drudgery is, and I ex-
pect it to work a reform in many
cases." says the magistrate.
A Daniel, a Daniel. l say, a second
Daniel come to Judgment Now if he
will only push the good idea along by
sentencing the shiftless, thriftless, nag
ging wives to GO out and labor at
their husbands jobs for a while we
shall have a reformation that will
bring about domestic millennium.
For there is no doubt that the old
saying that "one-half of the world
doesn't know how the other half lives"
is nowhere else so true as it is of the
sexes. Men have no conception of the
burdens women bear. Women do not
dream of the crushing load under
which men Stagger along. Each
thinks that it is the sacrificial goat of
the family while the other has it easy,
and out of this misunderstanding
grows much of the discord that makes
marriage so often a failure.
For huShanda and xz,fvas MOULD h.
drawn closer together in love and
sympathy If they realized that they
were fellow sufferers. 1t is only when
one or the other imagines that he, or
she got the short end of the bargain
that he o. she is filled with envy and
bitterness, and strife.
Every woman knows, for instance,
that when, at the end of days work
that has begun at six o'clock and fin
ished at nine, she sinks into a chair,
too weary even to think how tired
she is, nothing rouses her to such
fury as for her husband to say: II
don't see what you have to make you
tired, I'd think myself pretty lucky
If didn't have anything to do but
stay in a nice home, and do a little
| housework and look after my chill
dren." -
And every man knows that nothing
but being a perfect gentleman, and so
incapable of raising his hand to strike
woman, no matter how much he
would like to, keeps him from giving
his wife a punch in the jaw when she
says: IT don't see why you won't go
out to the Smfther's dance. I am
sure If had nothing to do except to
sit at a mahogany desk in a fine Of
flee all day 1 would be fresh as a
daisy at night and glad to go around
and get a little exercise and fresh
air."

1t is said hat President Harding
has been impressed with the belief
that an early settlement of accounts
between the railroads and the gov
eminent arising from the period of
federal control will do more than any
other one thing to relieve the present
business situation. To bring that
about he enlisted the aid of Secre-
taries Mellon and Hoover. Under the
presidents plan the roads will be per-
mitted to- give the treasury their I.
o. US for the sums owed the gov
eminent on account of capital expen-
ditures for additions and betterments
made during federal control. The gov
eminent, on the other hand. will pay
to the roads about half billion dol
lars as an installment of the total
owed to the roads for compensation
and under the guarantee provisions
of the transportation act.

I will make an explanation somewhat
different from the other one you
listened to here.
ITO be frank, was angry when I
first received your check. 1 had con-
sidered your love for me too deep to
yield to such business-like PROPOSE
ton. However, when / thought it
over I was able to get your viewpoint,
and to see that you felt you were being
cheated. Even then, tho, could not
reason. Rather 1 would have married
any one else; so returned your check.
When you sent it again felt diff
ferent. 1 realized that you were
simply trying to save ple, and I can
tell you 1 certainly admired the spirit
quandary. I could not accept the
money even as a loan. for there was
no prospect that I ever could repay
you, but I decided to keep the check
this time-until 1 could think it over
further
She unfolded paper she had been
secreting in the palm of hand and
presented it to him. 1t was his check
for a thousand dollars.
II am returning it again, Casper, be-
cause I do not need it. Providence
has taken a hand in my behalf. Over
night the mining stock which L hold
trebled in value, due to the discovery
of rich vein close to it, and this
morning disposed of it for $500"
BIT thought" said Casper. that
you said you would accept my Offer
so L do she smiled. IT accept
your offer Of marriage, but without
any money involved. Casper, I have
loved you all along. and it was as
hard to give you up as it was for you
to abandon the idea of having me.
Casper, I am yours-but 1 am not for
sale"
