THE INDEPENDENT WOMAN

is one of the brightest jewels which
adorns our modern economic system.
But too often this independence is
gained at the cost of health, and the
wage earning woman struggles
through her duties, a prey to nervous
ness, backache and dependency. Does
not her independence then become
more of a burden than a joy? Lydia

gain their zest IN life, and will help

PUBLIC RECOGNIZED AT LAST.

Even the most severe critics of the
Interstate Commerce Commission will
approve its recent ruling that ensures
a low rate for shipment of surplus war
materials destined to build good roads.
Good roads are the arteries through
which the nations wealth must travel.
The issue was raised by the ship
ment of material by the Bureau of
Public Roads, in the United States
Department of Agriculture, to State
Highways Departments.
The material was shipped as con
tractors" equipment, thereby giving it
the advantage of a low rate. The rail
roads objected. They wanted the
States to pay "less-than-carload rates.
on various items in such shipments
even when the aggregate filled a car.
The contention of the Bureau was
that since none of the material is new,
and that as it Is all intended for use
in road construction it should have
the low rate allowed for contractors
equipment.
The Commission upheld this conten-
ton and the result is that on n ship
ment alone from Schenectady, N. Y,
to Boise, Idaho, 1920 was saved to the
State and consequently to the taxpay-
ers.
1t would seem this is not a particu-
larly happy time for the railroads to
make a fight against public interest
There is no reason why the lower rate
should not prevail and every reason
why it should.
True, improved roads and The devel
opment of the auto truck mean a re
duction in the railroad short haul, but
that Is a natural development, and the

ed wise to smash machinery because

THE COST OF PUBLIC APATHY.

Though the people of America are
one hundred per cent opposed to any
more taxation and are heartily sick OF
the burdens that have been placed or
them, they fail utterly to make their
feelings known with sufficient vigor to
cause their representatives in Con-
gress to take notice.
Every man lodges the issue by say
saying anything?" As Mark Twain
said of the weather: Everybody
growls but nobody does anything"
Best authorities agree that addition
al Federal taxation this year is unes-
capable. National receipts will be less
than figured on and expenditures
more. President Harding has an
nouneed an unbridged spar of $685.
100000, and if Great Britain fails to
pay interest on money lent her here
during the war the deficit will be
5000, 600, 200.
Again this may be deducted $272,-
900, 900 of the balance In the Treasury
at the close of the fiscal year, and this
spells additional taxation.
The farming interests are fatty op-
posed to a sales tax, the business in
terests shrek at the thought of screw
ing up the corporation taxes, which
undoubtedly would prove a final blow
10 a business revival. There remains
then the income tax. now outrageously
nigh. but standing out as "the best
bet of the politicians"
If the public remains ~apathetic. as
is its custom, then there will be no
justification for complaint when the
new burden is added.
1t is questionable if any country in
the world is as u%nscientine in its tax
alton as the United States. This is
because the people refuse to take an
interest in what is being done in their
Name.

Old Joel's body filled the next doorway. He called out with harsh oath, and again the boy stopped. With another oath and a threatening gesture Joel motioned to the corner of the stockade, and with flare of defiance in his black eyes the lad stalked slowly and proudly away. From behind him the voice of the wounded man called, and old Joel turned. There was ghastly smile on Ihe Virginian's pallid face.

From the snndial on the edge of the high bank, straight above the brin of the majestic yellow James, noble path of thick grass as broad as modern highway ran hundreds of yards between hedges of roses straight to the open door of the great maIior-hOuse with it's wide verandas and mighty pillars set deep back from the river in a grove of ancient oaks. Behind the house spread little kingdom. divided into fields of grass, wheat. tobacco. and corn, and dotted with white-washed cabins filled with slaves. Already the house had been huilt hundred years of brick brought from England in the builders own ships. it was said, and the second son of the reigning generation, one Colonel Dale. sat in the veranda alone. He was a rOyalist officer. this second son. but his elder brother had the spirit of daring and adventure that should have been his, and he had been sitting there four years before when that elder brother came home from his first pioneering trip into the wilds. to tell that his wife was dead and their only son was captive among the Indians. Two years later still. word came that the father, too had met death from the savages. and the little kingdom passed into Colonel Dale's hands.
 Indentured servants, as well as blacks from Africa. had labored on that path in front of him; and up it had once stalked deputation of the great Powhatan's red tribes. Up that path had come members of the wOrshipful House of Burgesses; bluff planters in silk coats, the governor and members of the council; dis. tinguished visitors from England colonial gentlemen and ladies. And all was English still - books, clothes the Church of England; the Governor. the representative of the King; his Council. the English Parliament-so cially aristOcratic. politically repub lican.

All day the fight went on. There were feints of attack in front and rushes from the rear, and there were rushes from all sides. The women loaded rifles and cooked and cared for the wounded. Thrice an Indian reached the wall of the stockade and set a cabin on ire, ''bnt no one hef the three got back to the woods alive. The stranger boy sat stoically in the center pf the enclosure watching everything, and making no effort to take part. Late in the after noon the ammunition began to run low and the muddy discoloratiOn of the river showed that the red men had fort. And yet last sally was made just before sunset. A body pushed against Dave in the tower and Dave saw the stranger boy at his side with his bow and arrow. A few minutes later he heard yell from the lad which rang high over the din, and he saw the feathered tip of an arrow shaking In the breast of a big Indian who staggered and fell behind bush Just at that moment there were yeiis from the woods behind-the yeiis of white men that were answered by joyful yells within the fort:
 "The Virginians! The Virginisns !'' And as the rescuers dashed into sight on horse and afoot Dave saw the lad Ieap the wall of the stockade and dis appear behind the fleeing Indians.
 Gone back to em," he grunted to himself. The gates were thrown open Old Jerome and his men rushed out, and besfeged and rescuers poured all their ire after the running Indians, some of whom turned bravely to emp ty their rifles once more.
 ''Git in! Git in. quick!" yelled old Joel. He knew another v0IIey would come as soon as the Indians reached the cover of thick woods. and come the volley did. Three men feli-one the leaGer of the Virginians. whose head Topped forward as he entered the gate and was caught in old JoeIs arms. Not another sound came from the woods, but again Dave from the tower saw the cane-hrush rustic at the edge of thicket. saw a hand thrust upward with the palm of peace toward the fort. and again the stranger boy emerged-this time with bloody scalp dangling in his left hand. Dave sprang down and met him at the gate. The hoy shook his bow and arrow. proudly, pointed to criss cross Scar on the scalp. and Dave made out from his explanation that once before the lad had tried to kill his tOrmentor and that the scar was the sign. In the center of the enclOs, ure the wounded Virginian lay, and when old Jerome stripped the shirt from his breast he shook his head gravely.
