In telling of the hell and havoc in the wako of them, he suppressed a sob, as neatly as the Governor could have done it, yet the last trnto your corr. gazed upon the superior officer, he was sprawled out on bur. business office bench, indulg ing calmly In what he now would tear limb from limb, and banish from the surface of the earth. It Is only since the glad New Year, that the cigarette became a frightful menace to his days,' and. the youth of the nation, A floblo resolution, but reformation only hit the high mogul of the militia, a glancing lick, for he opines: , ''Those who find comfort and solace -in tobacco can find It In. , pipe and cigars, . . ." ' Why the discrimination? Why no mention of the gurgling pipe, with its reCrvolr of stored-up nicotine, and the rivulets of amber fluid plunging down, a whiskered chin, to plunge precipitously and recklessly, onto a sliqw, white shirt bosom? Yet the heavy guns of righteousness are hauled up, to batter down the nolne IcW .otid fairly tidy clgarotte. Hut whydilate, as the lawyers remark, when their air pressure gets low.

' THE MELLON tax bill offers an opportunity for the ilemiifioiruc which will be taken advantage of to the utmost oratorical limit. Secretary Mellon wants to reduce sur-taxes on the very rich and while in the opinion of financial experts, this will result in greater revenues for Uncle Sam, and n material reduction in the tax bill of 1 lie average citizen, partisan politics indulges in no such diserimina tion. , " "S.PS The millionaire will have to pay a lower tax rate! That is enough for the campaign spell-binder. From now until next November the welkin will ring, with denunciation this nefarious scheme to favor the rich and rob the poor. , TT Oh Hum!

Even P. T. Biiriium, they say, occasionally had an off season. The reason the Secretary of the Treasury wishes to reduce tho cur-tax is this: Experience has demonstrated that the present exces sive sur-taxes do not drive the rich man's excess cash into the federal treasury, but into tax exempt securities. In other words, statistics prove that to lower this stir-tax will. bring in more money to the gov ernment, than to keep it. More money to the government means, re ducing the tax burden for the country as a whole, which means bet ter business all around, which in turn, means for the average indi vidual more money coming in and less money going out.

And to the builder I would cry, "We'll change the plans, think; this franklin hath an artist's eye, he says we Ye on the blink." And so we added ami we changed, as people would advise, and nothing as at first arranged seemed goodly in our eyes. And now the builder's task is done, the hammers all are still, and I am scratching round for inon to pay the ghastly bill.

QUESTIONS AND', ANSWERS 1 S In a Hule-'M ? r On the advice of a friend I applli'd nitric acid to a wart until I had a hole an eighth of an inch deep where the wart was. Now this refuses to heal. Would it be all right to apply moro acid to burn out the hole? (C. H.) Answer. If any such caustic Ib ever advisable to use on a wart, It should be left to the skill of a compe- tent physician. Even at the solicita- tion of a friend it is unwise to try to ne your own surgeon. - ine crops of warta on the hands of youngsters or five days will often bring about their disappearance.

COMMUNICATIONS For Patients of Dr. Price To the Edlto: Of late several arti cles have appeared in ; tho papers seeking to discredit the doctrine of healing by Divine power, thru the agency of prayer, as commanded in James, - 6th" chapter, 14th an 10th verses, to-wit; "Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church and let them pray over him, anointing with oil ln the name of the "Lord: and the prayer of faith shall save the sick. and the Lord" Shall Yalse him up; and If he have committed ;slps they Bhall be forgiven.: hint." .'
