THE BIG CHANGE: — Article Ten —yfou remember it in j tho league of nations and surely you! have not forgotten what a terrible j thing it was and how Woodrow Wil*! son had forever wrecked this country by putting it in and trying to book us j up with the rest of those who agreed. I And now we have the disarmament. convention —four great powers—in-' 6tead of fifty nations—and they bavei been working nights on their by-laws, j For some unaccountable reason they included a section that will remind many of terrible article ten for about the only real difference we find is the number. Here is Article Two of the arms association: If the said rights are threatened by the aggressive action of any other power, the high contracting parties I shall communicate with one another fully and frankly in order to arrive at an understanding as to the most efficient measures to be taken, joint- j ly or separately, to meet the exigen cies of the particular situation. And after you have read that, here is Article Ten of the league:— The members of the league undertake to respect and preserve as against external aggression the terri- ( torial integrity and existing political independence of all members of the league. In case of any such aggres-

To the Physicians of Decatur SUSTO is the Only Vitamine Tonic Food Ever 0. K'd by a World Famous Nutritional Expert Dr. Philip H. Hawk is the Professor of Physiological Chemistry at Jefferson Medical College. Philadelphia. He analyzed SUSTO, checked up its action, scientifically tested its nutritive value and digestibility in normal human beings and its therapeutic and reconstructive powers in numerous cases of Run-Down Conditions, Loss of Flesh, Anemia, Lack of Strength, Convalescence, Malnutrition, Under Weight and Under Nourishment of men, women and children. After which he made a most favorable report, extracts from which we hereafter reprint. This is the first time in history that a tonic reconstructive has been offered to the public backed by the full approval of world-recognized, scientific authority. It is the first time such a perparation has been ethically tested in every possible way before being placed on the market. Here is what Dr. Hawk said concerning this test: “In all cases of a general run-down system or in convalescence from such diseases as typhoid fever or influenza, SUSTO played a very important part in stimulating the appetite and causing increases in body weight. “In practically every case the tonic or stimulating effect was apparent at the start of the feeding and persisted. “In every instance where under-nourished infants and children were given SUSTO, important body-weight increases were registered. A notable case is that of a boy of eleven who had been under weight for three or four years in spite of the best medical and dietetic treatment. The feeding of SUSTO produced a gain of six pounds. “SUSTO also caused normal adult persons to put on weight. One of our cases (a normal young woman) gained seven pounds in two months by the use of it. And still another, a married woman, gained twelve pounds in three months. "One old lady of 75, who had weighed under 96 pounds for 30 years, increased her weight to 100 pounds by the use of SUSTO. “In no case did any patient object to the taste of SUSTO. In fact, one physician associated with us reports that one of bis child patients now refuses to take any milk unless it contains SUSTO. "Some individuals were found who could not digest straight milk but who could handle milk with SUSTO very nicely. “SUSTO as improved by us is an excellent nutritive tonic and growth-promoting therapeutic product. It should prove useful to all convalescents, to normal adults who wish to put on weight, to undernourished children and adults, and to men, women and children in general who show signs of a run-down system.’’ It would be impossible to secure higher testimony as to the tonic food value of SUSTO. ' SUSTO is rich in the Vita mines of Rice, Eggs, Mrlk and Yeast—notably rich in Fat Soluble and. Water Soluble Vitamines A. B. C„ together with Beef Protein, Nuclein and Iron —and indicated for malnutrition and allied diseases. A copy, of Dr. Hawk’s full report Vill be sent to any physician. A postal request will bring il.

The difference is that one is number two and the other number ten ■ and that Wilßon proposed the latter and some politicians were after bis scalp. a———p wmmmtmmmmmmm \ , England, Japan and France ap I prove the treaty and the newspapers i of those countries praise it but what 1 about the forty-alx other nations who \ comprjaed the original league?. Don't you believe that since we are to have a league the little country or the big one less fortunate should also have recognition? Time will tell but a lot of great international diplomats are guessing that either the new league will soon embrace the old league or the old will swallow the new or there will be trouble. And if a league at all why go to all this j trouble and expense of a new one when we could have adopted the J other easily and proceeded to real business of reconstruction? There ! are some things to think about. === A French airplane expert, M. ! Hreguet, predicts we will travel , ' through the air in a few years at the ; rate of twenty-seven miles per min- 1 ute, faster than the shell from a gun travels, which will be whisking ' along rather rapidly. Think of it, you will go from here to Fort Wayne in a minute and have time to spare and from here to New York City in ' half an hour. From New York to San Francisco now using up five i ' days will be done in a couple of hours. If they keep on they will be bringing ns back from Mars in less 1 : time than it takes to go to London. ——— Reappraisement of real estate in this state will occur in the spring. , it is to be presumed that th eassess- < ments will show the decline in values, j of which there is no doubt.

At I present the valuation is about eight 1 million dollars and it would seem reasonable that this would decline one-eighth or more which would cause us to revert to the fifth class. i I I The sale of Christmas seals is not a society tad or a joke to be lightly considered. The money thus raised goes to the treasury of the AntiTuberculosis Society, an age nay which has assisted thousands afflicted with the greatest scourge known to civilization—tuberculosis. Use all of these stamps you can afford and with each send a prayer that Ute work will be blessed with good results. The special session is on and for a few days at least will be a subject of important interest to citizens of Hooaierdom. The governor insists' that only one bill, that to correct the error made in the act providing for the removal of the reformatory shall be taken up, while numerous representatives have pet bills tucked away in their inside pockets. Liberty bonds in the United States are advancing rapidly these days and the increase in value of these se curities the past few weeks makes a total according to Wall street financiers if two billion dollars. The little fellow has been forced to sell his bonds at the low dollar and now he who hath will have more. Its as old as the Bible. The arms conference will soon be over and it will be necessary for ttfe administration to really get busy to make good. ANKLE IS BROKEN — Porfirio Medina, a Mexican beet J worker, m the etnpipy of the Holland- j St. Louis Sugar company, had the misfortune to break the bones of j his left ankle while at work near Geneva late last evening.

Collector of Revenue M. B. ( Thurman /Wants People to Know Changes in THE REVENUE BILL Enacted by Special Congress -Reports Must Be Made After January First. The following statement is Issued by M. Bert Thurman, Collector of Internal Revenue, District of Indiana: “Enactment of new revenue legislation has brought to the offices of Collectors of Internal Revenue a flood of inquiries regarding various provisions. The Revenue Act of 1921 became effective November 23, 1921, "unless otherwise provided for.” “To avoid error in the preparation of their returns and later difficulties with the Bureau of Internal Revenue tax payers are advised to carefully note the changes and when they become effective.” “The excess profits tax is repealed as of January 1, 1922. The rates for 1921 are unchanged.” “The surtax rates for the calendar year, 1921, are unchanged, and range from 1 percent, on the amount of net income between $5,090 and $6,000 to 65 percent, on the amount of net income in excess of $1,000,000. For the calendar 1922 the surtax rates range ] from 1 percent, on the amount of netj ! income between $6,000 and SIO,OOO to 50 percent, on the amount by which the income exceeds $200,000. "The exemption allowed for a dependent is increased from S2OO to S4OO. Married persons living with i husband or wife and heads of families are allowed a personal exemption of $2,500 (instead of $2,000) unless the net income is in excess of $5,000, in which case the personal exemption is only $2,000. The act provides that in no case shall the reduction of the personal exemption from ; $2,500 to $2,000 operate to increase the I tax which would be payable if the exi emption were $2,500 by more than the I amount of the net income in excess of $5,000. This is to overcome the disparity in the case of two taxpayers, I one of whom is just within the lower I $2,000; exemption and the other just I wltfiin the hifeher $2,500 exemption.” I "Single persons, ■ and mqnrifd perI sons not living with husband or wile, I are allowed an exemption of SI,OOO. I Non-resident aliens are a I single personal exemption of SI,OOO. i Persons having gross incomes jfor I 1921 of $5,000 or over are required to I wake a rei-ura, regardless of the ■ amount of net income.”

"Provision is made for the repeal as of January 1, 192$ of the tax on stockholders of a personal service corporation as such. After that date such corporations are to be taxed L% the same manner as other corporations.” "The income tax on corporations for the calendar year 1922 and thereafter is increased from ten to twelve and one-half percent. The $2,000 exemption heretofore allowed corporations is to be granted only to thoso corpor atiuns whose net income is $25,000 or less." "Many persons are under the impression that the taxea on ice cream, soft drinks, etc., monthly returns of which are required, have been re pealed with the enactment of the new act. These taxes remain in force until the end of the calendar year, 1921. "No change is made in the tax on admissions, except that after January 1, 1922 there will be no tax where the admission is 10 cents or leas. Effective January 1, 1922 the following taxes are also abolished: no musical instruments, sporting goods, chewing gum, portable electric fans, thermos bottles, fur articles, pleasure boats and pleasure canoes (unless sold for more than $100), toilet articles, medicines and numerous articles of ap parel.” "On and after January 1, 1922 the tax on various works of art is reduced from 10 percent, to 5 percent., the tax on candy from 5 percent, to 3 percent, and the tax on carpets, rugs, trunks, valises, purses, fans, etc., from 10 percent, of sale price in excess of specified amounts to 5 percent, of sales price in excess of specified amounts.” “The tax on parcel post packages is eliminated effective January 1, 1922. “The new act provides that no taxpayer shall be subjected to unnecessary examinations or investigations, and only one insection of bis books of accounts shall be made for each taxable year unless the taxpayer requests otherwise, or the Commissioner notifies the taxpayer in writing that on additional inspection is necessary.” “The period for filing returns on the calendar year basis is from Jan. 1 to March 15, 1922. This year, as last the tax may be paid in full at the timeof filing the return or in four equal installments, due on or before March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15th.” "Copies of the revenue act may be had by application to this office.”
