A National Budget. ‘Few successful business men and fewer national governments try to operate without having a definite re- lation between income and expendi- tures. The budget system is used by all large business concerns and many small ones; it is used by the majority of foreign governments; in fact President Taft is authority for the statement that the United States is the only nation which does not have a budget. There is hardly a business man in the country who will question the ad- visability of placing the government on a business basis by the use of the budget system as proposed by the president an dsubmitted to congress. by him in his June message. At the present time certain estimates are required by law but these are un- systematic, lacking in uniformity, and are incapable of being summar- ized in such a manner as to give anyone an adequate idea of what is to be done during the coming fiscal year. President Taft says, “Each year congress has been making increas- ingly large appropriations, based on estimates which are submitted by officers acting in the capacity of min- istrial agents to congress, under a law which makes no provisions what- ever for executive review and revi- sion. This I have sought in a meas- ure to correct by asking the heads of departments to send estimates to me before they were printed, bul the conditions attached by congress have been such as to make effective re- view imposible. - “The present legal directions as to estimates are based on the theory that there is no need to take stock before pasing appropriations; that it is not necessary to consider on revenues or treasury resources. Con- gress has directed each .executive cfficer to submit an estimate through the secretary of the treasury, who is made to serve in the capacity of an official messenger without any di- scretion whatever unless a depart- ment head may fail to prepare a re- quest for appropriations in the form prescribed by congress, in which event the secretary of the treasury has imposed upon him the duty oo submit an estimate for him, “Congress has created certain com- mittees on appropriations, who alone have power to review and revise re- quests of department heads. Even ic its own Organization, however, congre.. has failed to make provision msidering expenditures and es- for appropriations in relation iues. 10rity is granted for the ex- re of a thousand million dol- :h year without any thought where the money is coming This is done on the theory ere will be no deficit—con- as been doing what has been “surplus financing.” While istitution makes congress re- —eni- le for money raising, as well appropriations, responsibility rowing has been shifted to sident by empowering him to : loans to meet deficits in case t may result. great question of national ‘acy, which is raised by the Of congress above referred to, 1l we or shall we not have a 4l budget?” 2 Country such as this where tome is practically certain to the expengitures could long /ut of bankruptey and follow ‘ourse the United States has S following. The time is rapid- proaching when congress will vompelled to put the adminis- pn on a modern business basis. —_— resolutions on marriage and divorce that are in line with the most ad- vanced ideas of eugenists and others interested in seeing the human race improve physically. Each year finds more people believing that a physical examination should be necesasry be- fore marriages and more are agreeing that marriage divorce laws should be made by the national gov- ernment and so be uniform all over and the country. Following the adopted by the church: “Marriage and divorce should be regulated by the state in a most care- The safe-guarding of are resolutions ful manner. the home is the state’s chief business. The interest of the state in the family is paramount to the interest of the, of the family, because the citizens of the state come from the home, and are trained for the individual member citizenship, in large part, in home. “We hold that it is the bounden duty of both the state and church to throw about he home every safe- guard, not only for the physical well- being of the nation, but for the spiritual welfare of generations yet unborn. To this end we believe there should be: 1. Federal control of the entire subject of marriage and divorce, in- suring uniformity of laws. 2. Physical examination of the contracting parties to a marriage. 3. Wide publicity of the intention of the parties to enter the marriage state. 4. A law compelling the filing of a setting forth all places of previous residence. 5. A statute providing that no di- may be granted except on seriptural should be provided, however, be granted, in right of separate maintenance. 6. A statute making abandon- ment husband a felony. 7.

When gray hairs appear it is a sign that Nature needs assistance. It is Nature’s call for help. Gray Lair, dull, lifeless hair, or hair that is faliing out, is not necessarily a sign of advancing age, for there are thousands of elderly people with per- fect heads of hair without a single streak of gray. When gray hairs come, or when the hair seems to be lifeless or dead, some good, reliable hair restoring treatment should be resorted to at once. Specialists say that one of the best preparations to use is the old- fashioned “sage tea” which our grand parents used. The best preparation of this kind is Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur Hair Remedy, a preparation of domestic sage and sulphur, scientifi- cally compounded with later discov- ered hair tonics and stimulants, the whole mixture being carefully bal- anced and tested by experts. Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur is clean and wholesome and perfectly harm- less. Tt refreshes dry, parched hair, removes dandruff and gradually re- stores faded or gray hair to its na- tural color, Don’t delay another minute. Start using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at once.and see what a difference a few days’ treatment will make in your hair. This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all drug- gists.—Adv.
