LA FOLLETTE'S PLAN REJECTED BY SENATE VOTE 58 TO 21 ‘Washington, Aug. 24.—After an- other day’s debate, embittered by charges that those desiring to make the war unpopular and embarrass the administration were behind the movement greatly to increase tax rates in the war bill, the senate late yesterday rejected, 58 to 21, Senator La Follette’s amendment to raise $658,784,000 from individuals® incomes instead of $490,164,000 as proposed in the bill. WOULD DOUBLE TAX (By United Press) ‘Washington, Aug. 24.—The senate today tentativel yagreed to double the two per cent normal tax on cor- porations. Miss Bess Altman of Duluth is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Green- blat. “Woman Suffrage Very Largely a War Question.” “Women of the United States want to be enfranchised NOW,” says the Na- tional American Woman Suffrage asso- clation. *“Other countries at war are glving women the ballet as a meas- ure of justice in wartime. If mon- archies can give women the ballot the greatest democracy in the world can- not afford not to do so.” Five Canadian provinces and Great Britain and Russia went into the war opposing votes for women. - Their statesmen now acknowledge that war itself demands the enfranchisement of women. “Having taken our women into partnership with us in our tre- mendous task,” saild Premier Hearst of Ontario, Canada, “I feel that we should give them a greater part in;pub- He affairs and the greater service that ballots afford.” The premier of Great Britain, Lloyd George, has frankly stated that “the woman question has become very large- ly a war measure.” “Frenchwomen,” acknowledged M. Etienne Flandin of the French cham- ber of deputies, “have been the back- bone of the national defense. They should have the right to vote.” Soleful. It was a very high class boarding House, and the landlady prided her- gelf on the fact that the conversation at table was always very intellectual. “It was a strange theory,” she re- marked as she wrestled with the fowl, “that the souls of the dead entered birds and animals. But I think our ancestors held that belief.” “I'm rather inclined to think some- thing like that does happen,” comment- ed the qulet man. “No, really, Mr, Cutting? How 'in- teresting!” “Yes,” sald Mr. Cutting. “I'm con- vinced that this chicken, for instance, is inhabited by the sole of a shoel”— Topeka State Journal. The Lion and the Lamb. One of the most familiar quotations from the Bible which are not to be found there upon research is “the llon lying down with the lamb.” The spir- it of the reference is correct enough, but turn up the passage In Isalah and you will find, “The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kld, and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together.” The popular mind has con- densed the zoological miscellany, and to the incorrect version alliteration has no doubt contributed.—Exchange.

GIVEN Issued Weekl ‘We show you ihe real implements —not simply pictures of them. A picture often hides a multitude of flaws which would be quickly de- tected by inspection of the pictured object itself. Suppose you want to buy a horse. One mah bring to you a picture of a horse; another man brings a real horse. Which interests you the most —the picture or the real horse? The picture tells you nothing ex- cent in a general way. What you _ want to know, as a prospective pur- THEN TH' INCREASE Iy chaser, is in & particular way. You want to know whether the horse is sound of limb and body; how old, p sturdy and active it is, and some- i thing definite as it its spirit. The / picture tells you none of these things. You can learn them only by inspect- ing the horse closely and seeing it in action. It's just as unsatisfactory to buy a farm implement from a picture as it is to buy a horse from a picture. You can’t tell from an illustration whether or not the implement shown has material of inferior quality in the construction of some of its parts. You can’t tell whether or not it has operating faults. You CAN tell you closely inspect the implement itself and watch the operatiom of its parts. We have a high-class line of im- plements for your inmspectiom. Call b and see them and satisfy yowrself as to their quality and operating capa- bilities. - That’s the safe preparation for buying.
