CANADA INCREASES TAX
DRASTIC WAR MEASURE IS PRO
CLAIMED I.V PARLIAMENT.
Levies Placed on Ba.lnees Deals, Travel,
AVire Communication, Wines, Ktc.
(osteins Charges Rise.
OTTAWA, Ont.. Feb. 11. A draatic
war taxation measure was proclaimed
in the Canadian Parliament today by
W. T. White, Minister of Finance. Bank
circulation and the business of loan
fire insurance companies are taxed. A
stamp tax is applied to business and
banking transactions. railway and
steamship tickets, telegraph and cable
messages, letters, wines and patent
medicines. There is a customs tariff
increase covering all imports now duti
able and the free list of imports vir
tually is wiped out.
Increased customs charges are ef
fective from today. In the case of goods
now on the free list there will here
after be a customs charge of 74 per
cent on goods from the United States.
An increased revenue of more than
$20,000,000 annually is expected from
the new tariff duties and from the
stamp tax $8,000,000.
Mr. White estimates that even with
the new duties to be imposed the loss
of revenue to the end of the present
fiscal year. March 31. would amount to
$33,000,000. The total deficit on the
year's operation was estimated at $60,-
000.000.
The Finance Minister also estimated
that the cash disbursement in the fiscal
year beginning April 1 next will total
$.'!00.000.000. while on the present basis
the revenue would amount to but $120.-
000.000. The special war expenditures
included in the total would amount, he
estimated, to $100,000,000. all of which.
he said, would be borrowed. "We shall
be obliged to borrow heavily over the
next 14 months, he said.

The text of the earlier report was:
"Along all of the front yesterday as

SAN FKANCISCO. Fob. 11. (Special.)
Declaring: that it is Impossible longer
to sell the usual 12-ounce loaf of bread
for 5 cents, due to the enormous In
crease in the price of flour, the Retail
Bakers' Association of this city today
sent telegram to President Wilson
petitioning for a Federal embargo on
the exportation of wheat and flour at
this time. The bakers assert that tin
less they can increase the price of the
12-ounce loaf or decrease the size of
the loaf to be sold for 5 cents they can
no lonecr stay in business.
At the meeting of the supervisors
next Slonday the bakers will take up
the subject of the temporary suspension
of the ordinance which sets the weight
of the 5-cent loaf as M ounces, so that
a loaf weighing approximately 11
ounces can be sold for the frame money.
'The flour, from which we make our
bread has risen in price from $4.65 for
a barrel a year aso to $7.85 at present,"
said William M. Foley, secretary of the
Retail Bakers' Association, tonight.
"Wheat was SI cents In July and now
t is $1.62. and It is a fact that the loaf
has been decreasing in size since last
August. We formerly gave more than
12 ounces in the loaf, but now we can
not give that without losing money. If
flour goes any higher, which it seems
likely to do, the 5-cent loaf will be only
a bun."

"As soon as the Germans understood

helpful to us." he said. "On one occa
sion during the first two weeks in De

WHAT NEURASTHENIA IS
Neurasthenia Is a condition ot ex
haustion of the nervous system. The
causes are varied. Continuous orl.
mental or physical, without proper
vacation periods, without proper at
tention to diet and exercise, also woriy
over the struggle for success, are the
most common causes. Kxcesaea of !
most any kind may produca it. Some
diseases, like the grip, will cu
neurasthenia. So also will a aaveie
shock, intense anxiety or grief.
The symptoms are over-sensltlvenc..-.
Irritability, a disposition to won y
over trifles, headache, possibly nausea.
The treatment Is on of nutrition of
the nerve cells, requiring a non-alcoholic
tonic. As the nerves get their
nourishment from the blood tha treat
ment must be directed toward butldlni;
up the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
act directly on tha blood and with
proper regulation of the diet have
proved ot the greatest benefit in many
cases of neurasthenia. A tendency lo
anemia, or hloodlessnesa. ahown by
most neurastbenlo patients. Is also cor
rected by these tonic pIUh. Your own
druggist sells Dr. Williams' Pink Plll.
Two useful books "Diseases ot the
Nervous System" and "What to Eat and
Howi to Eat" will be sent free by the
Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady.
