WHERE WAR TOUCHES ALL Those people who had an idea that war would be a good thing for the country and put money into circula tion will soon have an opportunity to see how the thing works in actual practice. It is true that a vast ma jority of the people of this county will not come in touch with actual hostilities, and so for as the daily routine of their lives goes,would never know that war is in progress. But we have all heard of the “sinews of war,” and we will all have a hand in providing them. War is an expestve luxury. It costs money to carry on war. Vast numbers of men have to be equipped vith arms, have to be supported and have to be paid for their services. Ships have to be bought, and many others hired: rail roads have to be paid for transport ing men and upimunit'on and guns. Coat fortifications have to be equipped and our navy kept an a war basis at vast expese Millions have to be ex pended by the government So far so good. Where so much money is paid out and put in ciruculation, there is the chance that some of it will come our way. Bat there is the other side of it. Where is the government to get all this money to pay out? Only from its citizenj, We have to pay it in before the government can pay it out That is a view of the case which many peo pie forget in rejoicing over the gov ernment's expenditure of money. In the last analysis the people are the government, and from the people must come the mouey the govern ment spends. It is well known that) for a long time the government’s in- j come has not eqnlalled its expenses, and we have been carrying a deficit ; in our revemus With the tremend ons increase of expenses caused by this war in an increase of revenue is imperative, and hence it is that con gress has now before it a special reve nue bill to raise money for the extra ordinary expenses of war, The leading provisions of the bill are the increase of the laxes on beer, tobacco mi 1 cigars: the levy of stamp taxes; provision for an issue of SSOO, 000,000 in coin bonds running for not less than ten nor morn than twenty years, bearing interest at IS per cent, and provision !or not more than SIOO, 000,000 of certificates of indebtedness also bearing interest at not exceed ing three per cent. ft is impossible to estimate defini tely what this bill will raise, but it is believed that it will produce some thing more than one hundred millions front the increased revenue taxes on tobacco, beer, and the stamp taxes. These stamp taxes take effect on the first of Juno and leave the inter vening period of five weeks for the preparation of the necessary stamps and lnarhinery by the Internal Rev enue 15iire.ni. The increase in the license tax upon dealers in tobacco and cigars takes effect on July 1, at the beginning of the new fiscal year, and the portions ot the bill increasing the taxes or. beer and tobacco take effect noon the passage of the law. It i provided that the increase on beer and tobacco shall be levied upon retailers as will as wholesale stocks in existence at the time when the act shall take effect, and a force of rev enue agents is authorized for the pur pose ot the discovery of such stocks. The stamps authorised under the stamp tax may bo sold by any post master where the faiiities for procur ing them from the internal revenue officers are not sufficient - With the exception of licenses and tonnage dues,"both easily collected, all the taxes proposed are stamp taxes, the eaisestto collect and the most readily diffused through the cnthe commun ity- Express packages, steamship tickets, bank checks for more than §2O, anil a long list of financial instruments and legal documents will pay stamp taxes from two cents up to substantial am ounts, and his method ot taxation i lias for the government the great ad vantage of being eaisly and cheap ap plied. Failure to affix the proper stamps ] invalidates the instruments upon which the stamp is required, but the securities thus affected may be given validity by voluntaty pfiym lit of the price of the proper stamps, with a penalty ol ten doilurs. With the S see tion providing for a tax upon the is sue and transfer of the securities it is intended to cover sales upon margins by prov.dmg for a stamp upon any memorandum or evidencs of the transfer for sale, entitling the holdir ! to the benefit of the house stock or to | secure tiie future payment of the I money or the future transfer of stock. United States, Hate, county aud mu nicipal securities are exempted from tiie ;t imp taxes, and the same rule is applied to the stocks and bonds issued by co-operative building and loan as sociations. JThe tax upon bank checks or drafts is framed to meet the objec uons of some members of the comtmt- tee by miking it applicable to checks for sums exceeding S"2O only. Small checks employed in retail transactions will not be subjected to taxation, the tax upon telegraphic dispacthes is not applied to press news dispatches, but applies to the inquiries and in quiries and instructions which are constantly exchanged between editors and their correspondents. Express packages are also taxed at the rate cf 1 cent where the charge is not over 25 cents, 2 cents where the charge is not over }sl and 5 cents where the charge is greater. The stamp taxes upon legal instruments like mortgages and personal bonds run to large amounts The smallest of such taxes is sl, and a mortgage for the moderate sum of $5,000 u subjected to a tax of $5. The rate runs about SI per thousand upon higher amounts. The manufacturer of patent medicines are authorized to prepare dies f>r their own stamps which shall be in the custody of the c munissioner of internal revenue, and such articles intended for export are exempted from stamp taxes under proper safeguards. There will no serious difficulty in getting through this tax and portion of the revenue bill, but there is likely to be considc-racle objections and de bate over the portion providing for the issuance of certificates of indebt edness 'o the amount one hundred millions by the secretary of the treas ury, bearing three per cent interest, and the issue of fi7e hundred millions of three per cent coin bon s. The! talk of gold bonds was dropped and J coin bonds substituted, but the silver men and Democrats prefer to coin the silver in the treasury, to issue greenbacks, or to impose an income tax—-either or all of these to issuing half a billion of bands. Thero wil likely be considerable debate in the senate over this measure though it will probably be raihoaded through the house at once. It may be found necessary to expediate things by pass mg the tax portion of the bill and putting the bond issue in a separate bill.—Augusta Chronicle.

The discovery of Mi-Elree’s Wine of Cardui has brought a revolution in the t reatment of the common coin plaints, from which all women some times suffer, called “Female Diseases' The belief that these troubles couid only be treated after examinations by physicians, and frequently oniy cured by the surgean’s knife, was once wide spread. The dread ot such treatment, and exposure kept thousands of mod est women silent about their suffering, They preferred the pains and the torture to going to a physician about such matters.

Most of the time I was so bad it was not safe for me to go out alone, as dizzy spells would cause falling. I had severe palpitation, shortness of breath and sudden pains thatrendered me helpless.

THE HORSE’S SHOES. HOW OFTEN THEY NEED REPLEN ISHING AND WHAT THEY COST. Resetting Old Shoes Costs About Kl*lf u Mach M New Ones- Tho Use of Robber Psili-Csrrisge Horsin' Shoes Cost Mere Than Thoee of Work Morses. A work horse’s shoes cost a good deal more than its driver's shoes do. Truck hursts, delivery wagon horses and tho great number of horses used for vsrioa." working purposes, including many horses driven to hacks and cthtr putlio carriages, are ordinarily shod once month at a cost of $2.30, so that tho work horse's shoes are likely to cort S3O n year anyway, and there m*y be some additional expense for sharpaalng and resetting. Sharpening costs sl. GO. \ThsMter this is necessary or upl dspends, of coat**, primarily upotl thg weathw. It may de pend i&nefa upon the time of day tho horse is driven. There may be season* in which sharpening is not necessary. Not all drivers get tho shoes of their horses sharpened even when ths going fs slippery. Such geffig may com® about suddenly aDd unexpectedly, and it may be of brief duration, and then there are drivers who under ordinary circum stances take the risk of the greater cost of a broken shaft or an injured animal to save the cost of sharpening. Of work horses ip general probably something more than half have their shoes sharp ened when the going is slippery. There are some, how-over, whose shoes are al most all kept sharpened at such times, these being the horses that work at night and in the early morning before the sun has softened the ice or melted it away. These iucludo burses driven to milk wagons, bakers' horses, and so on, bow often tho shoes aro sharpened depending on the going. Usually when a horse is shod he is shod all around. Sometimes there is oc casion to put on a single shoe, as when a horse throws a shoo. Tho cost of a single new shoe is one-fourth the cost of a sot—in the case of a work horse 63 cents. Tho charge for resetting the old shoe would ho 35 cents. Resetting in general, from one shoe up, costs about otje-haif, or a little more than half, as much as fitting a horse with Haw shoes. In putting on a single shoe an old shoe would commonly be used, to make it match those remaining on. If it is not too much worn, the shoo the horse has cast would be- put back if the driver picked it up. It is suitable and it fits. If it has not been picked up, then a slipper is put on from tho pile in the shop, slipper being tho shop name of the worn suoe taken off and thrown aside when a horse is resLod. Horses bavo peculiarities in wearing their shoes, just as men do. Some wear them off more at the toe, some more at the heel, and some wear them more on one side than on the other. Horses’ shoes wear off more quickly on granite pavements than they do on asphalt, and the greatly increased use of asphalt pavement has led to a correspondingly increased use cf robber pads in haer.m' shoes to givo the licrses a better foot hold. Rubber pads, as well ns the shoes, are fitted to the horse’s foot and mailed on with the shoe. Shoes with rubber pads of this kind for work horses, cost, put on, $4 or $5 a set. They are likely to wear longer than shoes without pads, but they are commonly replaced or re set at tho end of a mouth. The necessi ty for reshoeiug the horse at intervals of about a mouth is. due in a considera ble degree to the natural growth of the horse’s hoofs, which require trimming or other attention about ouce in so often. In the case of iron shoes, at the end of a mouth, when they ore taken off, they are likely to bo too much worn to go another mouth, and new shoes are put on. In the ease of rubber pad shoes, if they are not too muoh worn, they are reset, and this may be done in porbaps 40 or 60 per cent of the cases. Some times tho old shoes may be put back with now pads, sometimes the old pads with ii6w sbos*. It depends a good deal on the manner in which tho horse wears them. So that while the first cost of rubber pad slices is cousiderably greater than that of plain shoes the net cost is not so much greater. The price charged 3br shooing a pri vate coach or carriage horse is $1 more than for shoeing a work horse, or $8. 50, and rubber pad shoes, such as thus® de scribed, for carriage horses cost $6 or $0 a set. Such horses are reshed ordinarily, like most berets, once a mouth, and m a rule their shoes are also reset in the middle of the nioath. And the shoes of private carriage horses ere more oom- Bioniy kept eharpensd in slippery weath er theei are those of work horses. Wom en ore more likely to fcs disturbed by the (Upping c A a horse than a man would be, and the carriags horses are usually more valuable than work hors**, and less risk Ot injury is taken. In some eases it might 'll® that the charge for shoeing a horso, either a ear ring® horao cr a work horse, would ba according to the time required rather than by the Job, as. for example, in tbe ease of a lam® horse, in shoeing which more than the usual time would be needed. Shoos are made and fitted to *3eft any requirement, and the cost might be, according to the amount of work and time expended, from $1 to $6 fo# a (ingle shoe.—New York gun. Tim Critlr,.

When the deacon ivout to Pincbem, there wera red splotches on the moon. He denounc ed Closer ns a miser and a shark. The idea of his having subscribed but S3OO to such a cause was disgraceful. Piuch em put down S6OO and generously told tbe deacon to call on him if more were needed. “When Closer saw the list again, ho was tickled into a coughing fit and had word conveyed to I’incheru of his agree ment with the deaoou.

Finally her faoe lightened as she saw a leaded notice in another column of more pretensions than its fel lows. She turned to it and read eagerly. Then she threw the paper from her. “ Wbkt’a the matter?” asked the girl with her. "Seed that." And ebe gathered up the sheet and baude'd it over to the ott er one, who read this notice: , “Wanted—A young and strong wom an of good disposition and habits, obe dient and knowing her place, willing and ready, active and efficient, to oook, wash and iron, do general housework and taka care of children.

There is a certain Yorkshire man who has won considerable fame and soma wealth as an expert handler of horses. He is also the possessor of a pleasant home, a charming wife and a bright 3- yeor-old boy.

Flue sponges are used by physicians in surgical operations and are sometimes very expensive. Our finest sponges come from tbe Mediterranean sea and the Red sea. They aro obtained by divers, wbo search for them under rocks and oliffs, and who removo them carefully with a knife, that they may not be in jured. The Turks, who carry on tho trade, have between 4,000 and 5,000 men employed in collecting sponges. Tho value of the sponges annually col lected is estimated at SOO,OOO. Coarse varieties are found in tho Gulf cf Alexi oo and the Bahama islands. They are scraped off tho rocks with forked instru ments, and consequently they are often torn. In England more than 10,000,000 oil lamps are used nightly. They cause 300 deaths annually, aud in London alone 165 fires in a year have been traced to them.

Ayer’s Asthma Clift better known as Ayer’s Cherry Pec toral, has made a record for its remarkable cures of asthma. Cases that have been considered beyond hope or help have been cured by this remedy. We give two examples of such cures out of the many on record: — “My mother htis been a gre.?t sufferer from asthma for the past ten years, and her recovery is almost without a parallel. On account of her advanced age—over seventy— we had but little hopes of ever seeing her well again ; but we are sincerely grateful to inform you that she has been entirely cured by the use of Ayers Cherry Pectoral.” INGLIS BANKS, Tar Brook, N.S. “I was a sufferer for a long time from asthma, vainly endeavoring to procure relief in the use of ordinary remedies.
