COST OF REVENUE COLLECTING. A resilient if Unvklyn h;ta been iuititiei! by tlie commissioner of intonwil revenue that an adai! nf his income tax return for the calendar year 1 ; 1 S reveals an urnierpnymeiit of one rent. As prnvido'l by Jaw, the eomiaisioner warns the taxpayer that "to avoid penalty and interest" the- one tent mutt be ptM by a specified date. This reads like a joke. Tt i.. on the contrary, ? serimiH procedure, unavoidable if the law is administered justly. The fact that the : mount involved is the smallest possible to collect in out currency i;-- of no gignificance, save as it exhibits the extreme care taken by the bureau of internal revenue to pee tliat nc single cent justly due I'ncle Sam is withheld, either guiltily or ienorantly. It is an instructive incident, the lesson of which should not be lost on congress, which even now is wrestling with the problem of taxaiiou. Net infrequently argument is made favorable to some proposed form of taxation that "it would be e; sy and inexpensive to collect." Other propositions are rejected on the ground that it would cost too much to collect the revenue that might be derived frr.m them. Some 0,600,0(10 individuals ;ind corporations make income reports and the expense of collecting tin- taxes they pay is more than ?27, 000,000. The auditing of accounts must account for the greater pan of ibis expenditure. And yet. the bureau is three years behind. 5n the auditing of return?. : Gathering the- federal revenue is apt to cost more j rather than less unless ' ingress finds si urcec of in-1 come that will yield without the necessity of n great force of checkers. It is uo simple matter to devise a eveuue system that will operate with a sort cf automatic honesty. JUit the simpler the system the better. It cost about 50 cents to collect every $100 revenue. That this is too much may be deduced from the case of the underpayment of one cent by the Brooklyn man.

beguile their babies may sound very foolish to oirTera It seems to sound good to the by. and whilf the claim that it makes stutterers and causes ether detects in speech may have some truth in it, the 'baby talV will bear comparison with much other talk heard by children. Whilt good speech is important, the mater is of more importance than (he manner; in fact good matUT naturally tends to good manner in speech, it i: at least uviito as important that parents, fnthers ad well as mothers, are careful to st i ct the right subjict matter for talk before and to their children as that babv i;-.lk be eliminated. Try as they may the teachers are likely to have a bard time anyway to convince many mothers that baby talk 19 not the proper language in which to address the baby, both as to subject matter and method if speech.

WORRYING ABOUT A WIFE. The travels of the young l'rince of Wales, soon to be extended to India ami Japan, have created an intimate personal interest in his affairs throughout the empire, and no detail arouses more comment than the delay in finding him a wife. He is past -7, with no sign of a bride being chosen, and his lojal subjects think it high time something was being done. A column in the Tort nto Mail and Kmpire devoted to the subject remarks that despite the widespread hope that he may wed of his own choice, the Hritish royal marriage act still stands unamended and forbids his marrying anyone not of royal blood. The relations between "Willy" and "Nicky" and other royalties on the eve of the war

disposed forever of the old idea of royal marriages ; strengthening alliances and making for peace. Besides ; the overthrow of so many thrones has limited the royal j eligible? to a very few. j There is a furtive hope throughout the empire j th?t the young prince will eventually find his own solution by picking a bride of his own choice, regard-

less of marriage acts. If he does there is reason to believe parliament, if necessary, will be glad to amend the restrictive act and the people to approve
