Guest) o A HARD NUT TO CRACK NE of the serious measures to be considered by congress at the session iust starting is the tax bill, me principal field of action on this measure will be in the senate. Although it sustained the house bill provision to make these taxes payable this year, the senate committee made many im portant changes in redrafting the bill, the most important of which are as follows : Increasing the corporation tax from 12 1-2 per cent, as pro vided in the house bill, to 15 per cent. "Repealing the capital stock tax effective July 1, 1923. " Eliminating the house provision exempting the salaries of the president and judiciary from income tax. Eliminating the house provision exempting expenses of trav eling salesmen from income tax. Eliminating the house exemption of ?500 on income receiv ed from building and loan associations. Eliminating the house provision allowing corporations to de duct from taxable incomes and contributions made to charity. Restoration of the transportation taxes (repealed by the house bill) at one-half the present rate. Although it was not decided at this writing, it is reported that the senate committee is virtually agreed on restoring the tax on express packages and the duty of five per cent on candy which had been lowered by the house to three per cent Many minor changes have been agreed upon or are contem plated. No general review of the bill can be given accurately at this time. The retention of the excess-profits tax and the higher sur taxes for 1921 and the restoration of duties eliminated or low ered by the house with a further increase of the tax on smaller coroorations does not harmonize with the administration claims of reducinz srovernment expenditures. The senate finance com mittee" evidently believes these taxes will be needed, or it would have" permitted the administration to keep its pre-election prom ises of reducing or repealing them. With the exception of sustaining the house in making the re peal of excess profits and higher surtaxes effective January 1, 1922, the tax biU which will be reported by' the senate finance committee will differ in many particulars from the house bill, but promises to be no more satisfactory to the general public. BY DOROTHY Hl'SKK, VLBVBIAKD, Ohio, Sept. J3. Module: to walk with short, totteriiig steps, ua a child." . Thus does Noun Webster define the "freak" d'titze which lias set the reformers of .he country ngotr. Noun's definition certainly sounds innocent enough. But in the vocabu lary of the reformer tle v.ord tcddie Is synonomous with such depressing expressions us; immoral, vulgar and disgraceful. Juza music is the root of the toddle evil, a well-known character dancing master claims. He shakes his head ana signs lor the good old days of feousa two-steps and Strauss waltzes. "Dancing today has become a lost art, ne deplores. Dancing musters and dance-hall proprietors join in tha cnorus. In fiear-me-what-U-this-world- coming-to tone, the reformers whls per to you ubout the "corset check room and other unmentionable and dismal things that are bringing about tne downfall of this generation. inererore they cry, "I'nclean." and set about the work of seeing to it that tne toddlers cease to toddle. .Maybe they're right. It may be wrong. At any rute, the proprietors or dance halls In many Ohio cities have Issued the edict: "The toddle shall not be tolerated." University and collere faculties have drawn up stera rules concerning ireaK ana "close dancintr. Do the toddlers list to this din ar-und theni Not to any noticeable sunt. And wall th Mxaphoos wnines the latest syncopations of Uen Buck, Bud de bylva and the rest, the- young things continue to startle the "conscious objectors" by Improvising weird, rhythmic, breath taking steps with amazing skill. "Dancing may have become a lost art," says one young co-ed, an ardent exponent of the modern method, "but our dances aren't the tedious, 'one-two-three' affairs folks used to exe cute in the name of dancing." She seemed to voice the views of the ma jority of America's flappers. With a hint of scorn the flapper paints a picture, of the old-fashioned waltzer and two-stepper, floundering hopelessly around a dance floor. counting the steps with sclenflfic ex actness. Then she cals your atten tion to the free, graceful movements of the present day gyrations and, with an insouciant shrug, asks you to take your choice. But even if the toddle is suppressed, are the reformers getting anywhere? Will the wor!d then be safe for the waltz and two-step? That Is the question. While all the heated denounce ments of the toddle are taking place the toddle is simply dying a natural death. To make room for the waltz and two-step? Ah, no! When the toddle was mentioned to a sparkling young prom trotter to day she remarked, with an amused smile. "They aren't doing it at all. I'ut on a new record, and I'll show you the latest dance, the "race horse trot." And there you are! Mrs. Turner Declares Tanlac Is Grandest Medicine in Whole World. "I know there are a lot of people who have het-n wonderfully helped by Tunluc, but I don't believe anybody has more cause to be grateful than I," j suid Mrs. A. J. Turner, 129, Itussel! ' St., Portland. Ore. I "It is just beyond my power of ! words to describe how I suffered fori .'ears irom imliKestli.il and nervous-1 ness. I had no appetite and the little; I mnnnged to eat did me far more I harm than good. I got very little I sleep, and in the mornings I felt tired and worn out. I was Just dragging! out a miserable existence and dreaded I the future. j Tanlae was exactly what I needed and I am like a different person now: eat anything I want, my digestion is perfect and I have gained fifteen i pounds in weight. I sleep like a child and wake up in the morning feeling rresn and happy. Tanlac is the grand est medicine in the world.

The Commoner, while on a Chautauqua 'tour, spoke at Hlllsboro, III. The Montgomery News, In reviewing his speech, rose up to re mark that the corpulent ex-Cabineteer ; was a man with "soivenly sartorial habits" and went on to point out that i Bryan's trousers were "baggy at the knees,"' asif they hadn't been pressed since he left home. When Bryan reached here he read a reprint from the Montgomery News in local paper. At a haberdashery he explicitly specified to the clerk that his new suit must not cost more than 120.

DANCING THE "SOFT TIMES" GONE w E'RE a little bit like spoiled children today. It isn't so much the stringency of the present that we detest; n a rather that vesterdav's easv times are gone ! We found it 80 delightful to travel ahead at first, second and third that it's both disconcerting and provoking to find out that life has a re verse speed as well, says the Danville Commercial-News. The slopes of life are always with us. Very seldom indeed do we climb to a summit to remain there. After enjoying the view and congratulating ourselves on the success of the climb we're quite sure to take the descent, are we not? A hilltop is a place for inspiration, for refreshing, but seldom a place for con tinued staying. We could never progress did we stay we are ftlrearlv at the ton. Even descent may mean progress if we go down rightly. Dig tine our heels into the earth. Protesting and scolding at every step, we shall find the going down doubly difficult. Accepting the situation, going down as easily as may be, with our eyes fixed on other hilltops, we shall not so much mind the road. There are pleasures in the valleys also. We've only just so much nerve force and strength at our command. That which we spend in worry and rebellion, and nothing takes more out of us than do these, we shall not have for living. What we cannot help, why worry about? That which we can change, why not use the force and effort for changing? Foolish optimism? Impossible vaporing? By no means. Merely plain logic and common sense. Try it and see! Times may be good or bad, the weather fair or threatening, Other exhibitions may succeed or fail but the Round-Up goes on as usual, drawinsr caDacitv crowds and providing abundant thrills for those who see it; this was the lesson of the opening performance yesterday. If there was anything wrong with that show or with the size of the crowd such things were not vis ible to the naked eye. limn ' The reception accorded General Pershing by the French on the arrival of our soldier Wednesday proves France still grate ful Sor the A.
