Saw the repeal of the so-called 'sNuisance'' and Luxury Taxes. No longer will it be necessary for the purchaser to pay tax articles of wearing apparel, such as shoes, neckwear,. hats, dresses, waists, hosiery or lingerie of any kind.
 Ever since 1919 people have been paying a lux ury tax, which applied not only to luxuries, but to certain necessities when they exceeded a certain price. The elimination of this tax means great saving on the annual family expenditures. Every body feels relieved on account of it.

NEW P. r. R. RULE ON
BAGGAGE INSURANCE

The Pennsylvania Railroad has
made a new ruling regarding the
insurance on baggage. Heretofore
a passenger made out his baggage
form according to the rulings OF the
Interstate Commerce Commission
and, Notwithstanding the contents of
bag, suitcase or trunk, the COM
pany's liability was only 500.
To overcome this the company will
personally assume all liability on all
baggage shipped up 10 and includ-
ing $500 on the payment of ten
cents for each additional 500 or
fraction thereof.
Complaints OF baggage lost in
transit through transferring caused
the company to adopt the new sys-
tenn. and while it has been in vogue
only a comparatively short time, It
is said TO be successful,
Parcels left in the parcel rooms OF
the company can also be insured
but only TO the amount of 5000. The
former liability was s25. The same
charge prevails on parcels,as on bag
gage. So that all baggage VIII show
the amount of insurance taken out
excess stamps equivalent TO the
amount paid are attached to the
back OF the duplicate check.

The American people think II was
not common sense for the leaders OF
the shop crafts TO order the strike
when the United States Railroad
Labor Boards findings did not suit
the union heads. The American
people think It was not good sports
manship for the shop unions TO take
from the board every decision that
was entirely in favor OF the unions
but to reject the decision that. was
not In their favor. The American
people think It was an. outrage for
the. leaders of the shop crafts to in
suit and vilfy the board for per-
forming its duty in the light It saw
Its duty.
But all that is not what turned the
people solidly and grimly
against the striking shop crafts. It
was that when the shop strikers had
themselves chosen not to work they
dared to challenge the United States
Government itself for announcing
that men wanting TO work in the
railroad shops or anywhere else
must be permitted so TO work. and.
