TAXES
aOUGLAS cmmly tiixes UviwI for the year 1929 will total
Hie sum of $1, 159,701. M. Grumbling about taxes has
: Seine to be sort of a habit and when we see a huge sum like
tlyabove mentioned as the tax for one year, there is a temp-t-Kron
to bonnet; riirhl up and hit the ceiling'. Hut, like most
everything else, there is a reason for the amount of the levy
' and each and every cent will have its own work to do.
If we were living a counple of hundred or so years ago
! wo would have had a real kick coming. The English crown,
' you remember, levied heavy taxes upon the colonies and did
1 not give much in return. In one sense this was a most for-
t(Ji!ite circumstance because it directly precipitated the war
(fujC indupendence and caused the beginning of our own great
-imtion.
If the million dollar tax levy, or any part of it, were
."to be used for oilier than our own direct benefit, we
"w'iild have a mighty kick coming. As it is, our problem is
;;oifty to see that the money is properly spent for the most
good of the most people.
2 Almost one-half or SI72.5-M.47 of the tax money is
..aised for public schools. For the rest of it we have law and
.'ojuler, which spells personal safely for all of us; we have
good road maintenance and, as important as anything else,
we have a going concern, a business organization, manned by
capable, people that is looking after the problems that are
.common to all of us but about which none of us does any
'lhiig. Under this latter heading comes so many things that
olYly our county officers could supply it complete list, and
such a list would be entirely too long to print in this column.
-' V'hen you come right down to it, we get more actual
value per dollar for money we pay In taxes than for any
.. oUier dollar that we spend. ISelieve, it or not.

Willi Proper Care ami Diet Rcguii Early in lliis Disease'
the Calient May Look Forward to a Long and
Useful Life, Says Authority.
By ROYAL S. COPKLAND, M. D.
United States Senator from New York.
Former Commissioner of Health, h'eio York City,
THE kidneys perform an Important function. Through them pass
nearly one-half of all the waste products of the body. Since the
waste materials of the system, especially those which go through
the kidneys, are poisons, it la very necessary that there should be no
interruption to tneir passage.
In nephritis, or Bright's disease aa It is
commonly culled, there is inflammation of the
kidneys nn.d their function Is disturbed. The'
kidneys cannot take care of the waste products.
The chief variety of the food we eat is
called protein. For Instance, lean meats and
white of egg are proteins. The main waste
materials resulting from digestion of the pro
teins are nitrogen and nitroeen compounds.
These are eliminated largely through the kidneys;
iney are me urea, uric acid and ammonia.
In checking this disease, there must be re
duction of foods rich in nitrogen. At the same
time, the patient must so regulate his daily life
that he will need the least amount of protein
food. This will mean placing a limitation on his
daily pnysicai exertion so tnere will not be a de
mand for such food.
The r'.ief nitrogenous output of the kidneys Is urea. About an
ounce of this waste substance is voided rach dav. The more meat
taken th more urea will be developed. These nitrogenous substances
are noi nanuieti properly by the Kidneys in ti right s disease. When the
Kiuneya ao not function property, the
.-is to product accumulate In the
Demy ana act as puisons.
There must tie sensible control of
the food Intnke and measures

MYSTERIOUS destruction and
sudden death have been as
sociated with dragons in the Ori
ent since time immemorial and re
search into ancient Chinese lore
uncovered many amazing facta for
tise in the Paramount all-talking
nu'Rlorv moliiTlramu "Thn Alia.
terious l)r. Fu Manchu." which
will show at the Antlers theatre
beginning Tuesday.
The draeon in mythical his
tory and early oriental legends is
regarded as a Bymbol of evil and
destructive forces and the earliest
conception is embodied In the
Babylonian myth of Tiamat, the
great she-dragon. Tiamat played
havoc with humanity until she
was slain by the demiurge, Mero
dach. From the Orient, the legen
dary conception of the dragon
spread westward. As the highest
feat of courage, mythical heroes
set out to slay some mythical
dragon.
In selecting a blood-stained dra
gon as the emblem of a sinister
and unseen menace in "The Mys
terious Dr. Fu Manchu.' Director
Rowland V. Lee makes use of the
fact that, because the dragon has
made its greatest impression on
the oriental mind, it has come to
he associated with deep, mysteri
ous happenings with an oriental
background. Hundreds of authen
tic photographs of oriental drag
ons were studied before the em
blem used in the picture was fin
ally selected.
Throughout the story of "The
Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu," the
dra?on mysteriously appears in
the hands of those marked for a
sudden and terrible end. In addi
tion to Warner Oland In the title
role, the cast includes O. P. Heg
gie. Jpi Arthur. Neil Hamilton
and William Austin.
