JULY 3, .jt . 1914 WHAT GREAT NAPOLEON SAID Should Tax Vices Instead of Property. In a Rich, Prosperous Community Taxes Are No Burden In a Com munity Where the Local Town Is Dead Taxes Ars Hiflh. , .' Copyrighted, 1914, by Thomas J. Sullivan. Taxing is an easy business. Any new official enn contrive new imposi tions, any bungler call ndd to the old, but is It altogether wise to hare no other bounds to your Impositions than the patience of those who are to bear them? What a benelit the government would render the state, the city, the village and hamlet if It would but tax vices lnstcud of property! Bonaparte said he found vices very profltoble. He got $5,000,000 annually from the lovers of brandy, and be wanted to know what virtue would pay him that much. r . Taxes Increasing Each Year, Taxes are the sinews of the state, and they are indeed heavy, but if those laid by the government were the only ones we bad to pay we might more easily discharge them, but we have others, and much moro grievous to some of us. , ., We are taxed twice as much by our ignorance, three times as much by our disloyalty and four .times ns much by our folly, aud from these taxes the commissioners cannot case or deliver us by allowing an abatement The state, county and town levy and exact a certain tax from every piece of property located withlu their bound aries, the amount depending upon the official requirements. In a rich, pros perous community, where marketing ; and manufacturing lend their stimulat ing influences, tuxes are low. A com munity where the local town is dead taxes necessarily are high. The explanation is easy. The town which Is prosperous lias successful merchants with lurge nnd valuable stocks of goods; It has manufacturing plants nnd Industrial enterprises of great worth; It has newspapers, bank ing houses mill hotels, and, abovQ all, It Is a marketing center. The large amount and the high value placed upon litis property materially decreuse the tax demands nnide upon the farmer In that vicinity, , 8treets Paved 'With Jimson Weeds Then lako the other town, the dead (own. Whut are the cause and effect? Tho cnuso Is lack of piitronnge. lack of . Industrial pride, disloyalty and igno rance of one's own condition and best Interests. The effect? Tho town bus become a "Jay" town. In the streets have grown jliuson weeds, the side walks have gone to decay, the stores are vacant, and an air of poverty and dilapidation prevails. In this latter town and tho surround ing coinmpilly taxes are high, prop erty values have (Increased, nnd alto '.'ether it Is an undesirable place to live In, and the disposition of such property In nil Impossible font. As we stand aud survey the ruins of a once prosperous and promising city uo turn to the onco successful retail merchant, now standing In tho door of Ills empty store, nnd ask for the an swer. Briefly lie makes reply: "The retail catalogue bouses. Our residents iu this community beenme hypnotized by their plrturcs nnd prices and misrepresenta tions, and this is the result." On the Altar of Greed. They sacrificed their own Interests and their own town ou the nliar of greed and misunderstanding. The farmer should easily compre hend that when a stock of goods In a store Is depleted one-half or more It cannot be taxed for more than IU value, and In case the merchant for lack of putronogo is forced to retire altogether from business then there remains nothing to be taxed but the building. And what can it be taxed at provided a tenant who Is wllllug to take a chance with his money cannot be found? Eventually the farmer will have to pay the taxes. This merchant formerly paid, and it the farmer con tinues throwing bis patronage to out side concerns bo will continue to re duce local values and increase his taxes. Reflect Too Little. Soma farmers read too much and re flect too littlo depend too much upou others, too littlo upon tuomsolves. They make of their heads cold storage Warehouses for other people's tdeus instead of standing up In their own Independent, godlike Individuality. Heading nnd rereading of mail order catalogues leave a man In about the same condition as Mark Twniu's toad with IN stomach full of shot What do the mail order bouses do for the farmer? ' Do they relieve him of any of his tax burdens? NO; they Just relieve him of his money. It is u case of representation without taxa tion, nnd we fear lu time this manner Mill method of doing business will cause a revolution among the pro ducers and consumers which wllf eclipse the American Revolution. We would suggest to the mail order catalogue bouses that they shear, not skin, their sheep. Lille and Its Pictures. Lille, according to a writer in the London Academy, if one of the few uninteresting towns of Franco. lie went there "obstinate In the belief that no town In Kriince with over 200, 000 inhabitants could lie entirely with out Interest,''' but Anally "fled to the station, defeated.' nnd took train for Lnon." In Justice, however, the critic makes the coiiKl'lemblo ndnilsslou .that "Lille has perhaps the 11 nest collection of pictures In Knuic?niitslde Paris." . , BRAZIL ? AND ; ITS COLORS. , Flag Day There Has Now Become the Great National Festival. , In the republic of Itassll. where the ruling language Is Portuguese uhd .a welcoming hand is extended alike to j the European nnd the Asiatic immi grant, grout attention has-been paid for some years to the cultivation of a spirit of patriotism. Tn cult of the flag has become more and more ardent In the hearts of that people, and the "feast of the flog" each-recurring November Is celebrated with more and more pomp aud enthu siasm all over the immense empire and on every Hrnzlllnn ship, wherever it tuny be. In n country noted for Its nu merous saints' days the celebration of Plug day. bus become the true festal day. '' - -; Commenting ou this, Lo Bresll Eco noinlquv of lllo Janeiro siiys: "Our people are Imaginative nnd simple. A flag undulating In the breeze as It pusses by to the strains of martial music, tliut the olfleers suluto with the sword and before which everybody un covers, speaks more strongly to the beiirt of the people tlinn any dry his toric date which presents nothing In the concrete nnd which lo the ignorant recalls nothing of slgnlllcniice." Tile lesson of the flag Is taught to all tlie children of the schools in Brazil, and on King day they gather lu the pub lic squares of the city and town nnd, as in the United States, slug patriotic hymns. Indianapolis News'. COLLEGE HAZING. It Was Called "Wrecking" In Carthage In St, Augustine's Time, At most American colleges It is called "hazing;" at West Point It Is called "crawling" and nt English schools "fugging" is often applied. When St. Augustine was n boy they called it "wrecking." Iu a translation of his "Confessions," for which I am Indebted to n learned clerical friend, 'St. Augustine relates whut tho boys did nt the University of Cnrthnge: "I would take no part in the wild do ings of the 'wreckers,' n cruel and dev ilish name, which was looked upon ns the stump of the best set. I went about with them, nnd of some of them I made friends, yet I always disliked their ways of going on their wreckings, their wanton nttacks upon the shyness of freshmen mid the unprovoked af fronts with which they carried on their malignant amusement, Nothing could be moro like the conduct of devils, and wbnt name could bo litter for them than 'wreckers.' " That sounds as if the Carthage soph omore was fully as much endowed with self Importance ns the American sophomore. I may add that St. Augus tine's criticism of "wrecking" is one more ancient proof that "boys will be boys." Philadelphia Ledger. Labby's Long Walk. Ill ''Bohemian Days In Fleet Street" Is this Laboticliero incident, which hap pened when ho was lu the diplomatic scrvlco and was sent ou n mission to St. Petersburg: Before starting lie had u dispute with the foreign olllco about bis expenses.

Iu reply to bis discoverer he coolly said, "The foreign office refused to pay me my expenses, and I'm walk ing to St. Petersburg." Precocity. Little Willie Is really too precocious. I met him the other tiny with his school bng under bis arm. "Well, well." said I. "and so you go to school now, eh?" "Sure, Mlkol" suld little Willie. "Ain't I over six?" "And do you love your toacher?" I asked. "Aber nit!" said little Willie. "The old hen's too old for me." Washington Star. Sufficient Grounds For a Divoroe.

An Unexpected Attack and a Perilout , - nd Exciting Mixup. Captain C. B. Stigand was once mauled by a Hon. and be recounts the adventure In his "Hunting the Ele phant Iu Africa." The captain had shot a lioness, and while watching the body from u tree he saw two Hons ap proach. They stood over the lioness and roared alternately for half an hour. He succeeded in shooting them both, but on approaching the body of his second victim he found that It was not ijulte so dead us It bud seemed. "I ap proached the' edge, and immediately the Inert mass assumed life and, with a run i'. sprung on me with one bound. The orderly, who was a 'few yards be hind mi'. Immediately retired precipi tately. As the lion sprang I fired into ills chest, u nd he InndeU on me, bis right paw over my left shoulder, and lie seized my left arm In his teeth. As my left arm was advanced In the firing position. It wus the first thing he met "The weight of his spring knocked me down, and I next found myself ly ing on my back, my left arm being worried and my ride still In my left hand miderncnth bis body. I scram bled around with my left arm still in his mouth until 1 was kneeling along side of him and started pommeling him with my right list on the back of the neck. He gave me a final shake and then quickly turned round and disap peared In the grass a little nearer to the stntlon thnu I was." The nuthor adds that be was drench ed with blood. aitU upon examination he found eight big holes in his arm nnd three claw marks on his back, a damage that partially disabled biro for two years. He remarks modestly that since that adventure ho bas bagged seven more Hons. THE OLD TIME "YE." It Was Simply an Abbreviation and Was Always Pronounced "The." How does It happen that In copying, and rending ancient manuscripts we call tho character our ancestors meant for "the" by the ridiculous "ye?" They said "the" Just as we do, and the only apparent reason for mistaking the character is that two centuries ago the letter "h" wus usually written with a tail below the line and with a razeed top, which made It look like our "jr." Then the word wus so frequently used that It wns contracted, just as the word "and" was then treated and con tinues to be treated to this day by inuuy of us. When 1 was a boy. more thnu eighty years ago, the alphabets In our school books always ended with the "short and." Wo enllcd It "ampersand" nnd considered It a Hue snapper when we rnttled. off the alphabet. .Sometimes when sufficiently cultured we gave it the full title "nnd-per-se-nnd." Now, it Is likely that our "&" will become obsolete. Just as "ye" bas be come. Then our descendants of the next century or two will be puzzled perhaps, but 1 do not think they will be so foolish ns to say "ampersand" when rending our manuscripts and coming to the little quirk we meant for "nnd." Do let us drop saying "ye." -Dial. Not an Octet. Cyril Maude, the English comedian, was talking about cluss distinctions. "They uru less marked with you than with us." he said. "Here you all talk alike the shopgirl's accent differs in no wise from thut of a Stuyvesnnt ot a Roosevelt. Hut with us the lowet classes talk a disgraceful jargon. "The 'h' especially. The lower class es can never mnster that 'h.' In my youth I once heard a stage manage! rehearsing 'Faust' He had sprung from the people, poor chap, and he conducted the rehearsal like this: ""Old your 'anils on your 'lps, 'old up your 'ends and look 'mighty. You're not on 'Atnpsteud 'Entli, now you're In 'Ades. Now, 'nsten off 'tirrledly, with a look of 'ate.' " 'Hut, sir,' snid I, 'there's only sir of us.' "-Washington Stnr. The Practical Side of Music. -Ho was u lover of music who had Just been to hear Puccini's "Madame Butterfly," nnd be was expatiating upon Its beauties to au unresponsive friend whom he observed to yawn. The music lover wus hurt. "Look here, John," be protested, "don't you think that music is of some practical benefit in life?" "Oh, yes," said the unresponsive one. "Why. judging from the portraits 1 have seeu of eminent musicians, es pecially plnnlsts. 1 should say that music is great to keep the hair from falling out." I.ailles' Home Journal. SUMMONS. .
