Span of Life,” Illustrating the seven
ages of man.' Commencing with “In
fancy,” consisting of figures she had
modeled in clay of a mother with a . babe
on her bosom. The next, “Childhood,”
presenting children in gay-colored cloth
ing sitting on a well, and others playing
jn sportive glee. The third is 1 ‘ Ro

A WOMAN TESTIFIES
Here it the Help Most Women Need
•t Some Time in Life
Covington,' Ky.—“Some years ago I
was awfully run-down and nervouB from
feminine trouble and my physician rec
ommended Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
scription—told me that it was the best
medicine on the market for women.
Whether it is the best or not, it is the
best I have found, for a few bottles
helped me wonderfully and by continu
ing its use I was cured entirely.”—Mrs.
Edith Ford, 1320 Bunklick St.
The use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
scription makes women happy by mak
ing them healthy. A great many women

SEEKING UNLIMITED TAXATION.
Meriwether Vindicator.
Oov. Hardwick has entered upon a
speech-making campaign to devise new
methods for raising moro money for
Legislatures to spend.
With the skill of u shrewd politician
lie luuils his sentences with the poison
of prejudice, while the wisdom of can
did 'statesmanship is wholly nbsotit from
his utterances.
His uppcal is entirely olio of preju
dice, ns he attempts to ram an income
tux law down the throat* of Georgia
tnx-ppyors.
His advocacy of un income tux is a
palpable effort to put a system of un
limited taxation upon the State.
An income tax cannot and will not
relieve the bunion of taxation. The
measure the Governor advocates is con
fessedly unfair. Nowhere in it is th we
an element of equity or justice.
If the Governor is really in earnest
ubout .wishing to reach intangible prop
erty, why not call on the Legislature to
strengthen the present law by requiring
notes to be stamped by- the Tux Collector
before they are made collectible! Such n
measure would go a long way towards
reaching the hidden property,
As a matter of fact, the present law
is ample to reach nil classes of property.
The trouble' arises over its non-enforce
ment, and the sanio tiling woulcl ti[iply
under nil income tax law.
The Governor knows that Federal tax
returns nre hot open to the public, and
when he declares that these would be
available for the State lie is fudging on
the facts.
Gen. Toombs, the author of the taxa
tion feature in our State Constitution,
found tlie only fair, and equitable sys
tem. It seeks to make every dollar's
wortli of proprety bear its equal part of
taxation. It created no etnsses, and al
lowed no exemptions. It declared that
tlie burdens of taxation should fall
equally upon every species of property.'
Everyone witli a thimble full of sense
knows that the underlying purpose of
the proposed tax legislation is to in
crease the income of the State nnd to
make the will of the Legislature the
only limit to taxation.
The Constitution of Georgia wisely
provides a limit of live mills, and
but for this limitation heaven only knows
wlint would have becomo of the tax
payer.
Mark you, the Governor docs not nsk
for the repeal of tlie ad valorem Bystem,
but wishes tlie income tax to bo an addi
tional levy.
It is simply nil effort to evade tlio
present Constitutional limitation and
place the limit ns high as heaven and
as deep as hell, so that up question can
j be raised!as to the power of the Lcgis-
' lature to tax and appropriate.
Taxes have gone higher ami higher
with the years, and halting time has ar
rived. -
Already the burdens are too grievous
to be borne.
Instead of adding to them, why not
investigate the matter of practicing
economy I

Peculiar Racial Resemblance.
There nre a great many points of re
semblance between tlie Mongolian and
the American Indian. They extend to
personal and even religious observ
ances, notwithstanding the fact that
the Mongols lmve long been converted

There was an nmusing ending of a civil
ease tried In n Wyoming court. It was
tin appeal case, and on ono side was a
testy lawyer and on the other a number
of Inexperienced attorneys., Tim argu
ments on both sides hhd boon heard mid
the case closed for judgment. Suddoily
ono of the Inexperienced lawyers got up
nnd addressed the court once moro. The
testy lawyer stood It for a moment, hut,
losing patience, he also arose and ad
dressed the court in tills wise:
'Your honor, I would beg, with all
respect, to point to the Vuurt that my
learned friend opposite is entirely out
of order in addressing tlie court, and if
I may lie permitted to say so, the court
lias no right to lie listening to him.”
The court, who at that time was
writing, put iiis heml.out in a belligev
ent way mid saids-
“Mr. Smith, it is u groat pieco of
impertinence on your part to assume
that tlie court is listening to him.”
