Courtesy Pays Uncle Sam appreciates the worth of courtesy as a business asset. He is collecting $3,500,000,000 in internal revenue this year. A collection agency with a contract to collect this sum would hold a school of instruction for the employes that were to, approach the persons who owed the money. Employes would be taught first of all that it pays to be courteous. Uncle Sam is insisting that his collectors be fair and courteous in their dealings with the thousands of taxpayers who are being assessed to help win the war. His motto is, "When you start out to collect .$3,500,000;000 be nice." The bureau of internal revenue has prepared a manual for the guidance of the men who come into contact with the taxpayers. It has codified the suggestions of collectors of internal revenue, deputy collectors, revenue agents and the field force. Some of the suggestions follow : "The Government representative should be courteous at all times, have a cheery manner and forget the grouch, never, under any circumstances lose his temper and avoid all arguments.
"He should never accept a gift or favor of any kind from a taxpayer. "Should there arise a difference of opinion with regard to details the attitude and manner of the representative of the Government must invariably be one which gives no suggestion of doubt as to the taxpayer's motives." "Never put anything over on the taxpayers, because that is a kaiser-like abuse of authority and the man who does it isn't fit to be vested with authority." "Tell the taxpayer all his rights. The Government wants every cent due it and it wants the taxpayer to keep every cent he is entitled to keep." "A man in the field force should never lose
sight of the fact that ours is a Government of
the people, by the people and for the people. The people with whom we come in contact constitute this Government which employes us to serve them." It is a pleasure to note that the bureau which has in hand the collecting of $3,500,000,000 believes in tact, fairness and courtesy. It is operating on the theory that the taxpayer is not a crook but an honest person, possessed of patriotism that believes it a pleasure to pay the tax as his bit to help make the world safe for democracy. It is a complimtnt to the bureau that it has instructed it3 employes' to make courtesy the basis of their dealing with the men and women who must pay the tax.
Billy Sunday Says War Is in Last Half of Ninth Inning By Billy Sunday. That international game of war being played on the western firing line in France is in the last half of the ninth inning Uncle Sam has been called in as a clean up hitter. He needs our help to win the game. He must have cannon, guns, ships, autos, trucks, flying machines, battleships, submarine chasers, clothes, medicine, food, and it is up to us to do something beside sit in the grandstand and yell. We must win or Liberty will perish in the trenches. Our little trouble with Spain was a coon hunt compared with this scrap we have on hand with that bunch of pretzel, chewing sauerkraut spawn of bloodthirsty Huns. Sympathy is one of the loveliest traits of human character, but all the sympathy in the world can't win this war unless we come across with the coin. We did not win the war when we declared war, we did not declare war because we wanted German gold or land, we do not want a dollar of their dough nor one acre of their land. We drew the sword in defense of free govern
ment bounded on the sovereignty of the people, which is in eternal conflict with the baseless, arrogant and hellish claims of the Kaiser and his gang of cut-throats. The tragedy of the Kaiser is not that he is hellish and cruel but that he thinks he is decent. It is pot that he is the mouthpiece of the Devil but that he thinks ha is the Viceroy of God. It is not only our duty, but a great privilege to loan our money to the Government in this hour of staggering need. We can win, we must win. We shall win, so dig down deep and let us fill Uncle Sam's Bank Vault high with our money and help send a shiver down the crooked spine of the Hohenzollerns who are dancing on the thin, thin crust of hell, and thus help the guns of the army and navy to dig their graves, then the world will live in peace.
Conquest and Kultur "We are the salt of the earth.'-Kaiser's speech, Bremen, March 22, 1905. Christian Gauss, The German Emperor as Shown in His Public Utterances, 1915, p. 239.
"If you ask me 'How shall I build up the Kingdom of God ?' my answer is : 'Be a good German.' Stand fast by the Fatherland. Do your duty and fulfill your mission. Seek to submerge yourself in German spirit, in German mind. Be German in piety and will, which simply means be true, faithful, and valiant. Help as best you can toward our victory; help to make our Fatherland grow and wax mighty." Protestantenblatt, No. 13, 1915. B., p. 134.
Hotels and Restaurants Co-operate The Wayne County Hotel and Restaurant Association has been launched. It is a government enterprise with one purpose to assist the federal food administrator regulate the consumption of foodstuffs. Every proprietor of a boarding house, restaurant and hotel, as well as the stewards of boarding clubs and associations, such as the Y. M. C. A. and kindred organizations, is given an opportunity to prove that he is in line with the federal policy. The big hotels of Chicago and New York, according to statistics compiled by the federal food administration, have made a brilliant showing in cutting down wheat and meat consumption. The
men who cater to the public appetite in smaller establishments are now organizing to prove their
loyal co-operation.
Food must be saved everywhere. The boarding house owner who serves meals to six or twelve persons a day is given an excellent oppor
tunity to help. Most of them in Wayne county
have proved before this that the call of the government did not fall on deaf ears. An organization of hotel, restaurant and boarding house owners can carry this work on with great success by devising new forms of economy and by frequent consultations at stated meetings. It is a proof of loyalty for the owners to affiliate themselves officially with the organization.

The Food Administration Says: The email dally service In food substitution asked by the Food Administration can be done by all; the saving in waste by the majo ity, and the lessening of food consumed by many. This individual daily service in 20,000,000 kitchens and on 20,000,000 tables multiplied by 100,000,000, which is the sum of all of us, will make that total quantity which is the solution of the problem.
PANCAKELESS DAY According to a western paper, Bro. Hoover has, through the proper channels, requested all householders to refrain from making griddle cakes and pies. Of course, such a request is equivalent to an order, which will no doubt be universally obeyed. And this leads Fitz -Nigel, an old contrib, to send in the following: "Like straw that broke the camel's back. Now Hoover strikes the fatal blow. No griddle cakes, no griddle cakes. For us poor mortals here below. "Deprived of such a luscious food, Our lives will be a dreary waste Without the flapjack sweet and brown To see, to smell, admire or taste. "To win the war we'd gladly die And Hoover praise to our last breath, Could we but quickly pass away. But how we hate a lingering death!" Now they are talking of uniforms for farmers. Not a bad idea. The farmers are serving their country. How about hickory or blue denim overalls with bib and straps over the shoulder, cowhide boots and large straw hat? That is the way farmers are supposed to dress, but no farmer in the world ever dressed that way off the stage. They really should have some sort of uniform to distinguish them from the city folks. Nowadays the farmers and the city folks look much alike, only the farmers are slightly better dressed.
trumphets did they blow. They simply took a couple of guns and captured Jericho. The farce In Russia Is about over. Lenine and Trotzky have delivered the goods to the employer, and are no doubt waiting to receive their money. Our only hope is that they don't get it. A celebrated temperance advocate has been shocked by the information that 90 per cent of the bartenders in this country are sober and industrious citizens. If nobody drank any more whisky than the bartenders do, there would never be an agitation for prohibition. It's a queer world, after all. T. R. is out of the hospital and deaf in his left ear. But he is stilL there with a strong right, as usual. D INNER 5 TORI E S Uncle Hiram bought a clock so tall that it was almost impossible to get It Into the house. The old man was extremely proud of it and found it very good company. He would lie awake nights to hear it tick. One night the clock got out of order and began to strike. The old man awoke and counted 102. He promptly sat up in bed and called to his wife: "Betsy, get up, get up! It's later than I've ever knew it to be."
The White Comrade
From New York rimes.
AR out upon the battlefields
In watches of the night,
Tis said the wounded sold'er sees
A comrade robed in white.

He bends upon each sufferer A look of tender grace. Ineffable compassion lights His marred but kingly face. He touches dying brows, and lo! The fear and pain are fled, And smiles of joyful wonder wreathe The faces of the dead. He lifts His hands all bleeding, Nor robe, nor sandals, hide The print of nails upon His feet. The spear ihrust in His side. Oh, if 'tis true, I know not, Or a vision of the night, Formed by the fever-tortured brain The Comrade robed in white; Well mi?ht the agony of earth Have called Him once again To mingle in His human forin Among the sons of men. Seen or unseen, He walketh Within the place of pain; Let not the Great White Comrade Call to your soul in vain.
Aerial mail service is to be established between New York and Wash
ington. The postage will be 27 cents instead of 3 cents. It will not be used exclusively by authors sending manuscripts to the magazines. And now we must give a little space
to M. M., a contributor, who has said that last word on the Jericho business and has driven all other jokesters on that subject from the field : The British, everybody knows, proverbially slow, Have eft impatiently been told to "go to Jericho." The British are so literally minded, you must know. They took it at face value and they went to Jericho. The British like themselves, yet no
A Philadelphia servant sought her mistress with the announcement that her mother was sick, and that she therefore desired permission to go home for a few days. "Certainly," said the woman, "but do not stay longer than necessary, as we need you." A week passed and not a word from the maid. Then a note came which read : 4 "Dear Mrs. Jones I will be back next week. Please keep my place for me, as my mother is dying as fast as she can." "Why, I fell in love with first one girl and then another before I got married," said the susceptible young man. "I scattered my affections all over the map." "That's all right, son," replied the elderly philosopher. "Nobody will object to what you did then, just so you broke yourself of the scattering habit on your wedding day."

WOMEN WHO FASCINATE
The art of fascination and attractiveness in women is founded on good health. Women who drag through long hours, dajs, weeks and sometimes months of suffering with headaches, backache, and dragging-down pains soon wear the tell-tale expression of woe and misery. If every such woman would only turn to that good old-fashioned root and herb remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, to alleviate such ailments, it would surely prove the greatest aid to health and consequent beauty that she has ever known. Adv.
