Here's an idea that hit U3 all in a heap: Why not put the face of pretty girls on postage stamps, instead of those hard-visaged men who are famous chiefly for hold office? Bet ter still, why not a special issue of postage stamps fo reach community, bearing a picture of its prettiest girl? t . Wouldn't that make things nice for the stamp collectors? And just think how it would boom the sale of postage stamps. PER YEAR IN ADVANCE A THOUGHT FOR TODAY -J. V. Some people forgive and say they forget, but they never get it out of their minds. !t.

TAXES AND PUBLIC rroperty owned by the federal gov eminent is not suDjectea to taxauou. A A. ' A ! I If public ownership were adopted In the country and the tax free exemp tion continued, there would be enor- mous losses of public treasuries, quite enough to force a radical revision of public expenditure or a hunt for new j sources of income. During 1921 railways paid taxes amounting to $275. 12S, 134. Of that sum $37,176,773 went to the United States government and the remain- der, $237,951,361, went to the state and local governments. Public ownership would mean the loss of all that sum to the public treasuries. There is an increase in taxation paid by railways. Statistics indicate the total for 1922 will be about $304,000,000. On these properties in 1916 the taxes amounted to $162, - 474,733. In that year the railways paid taxes of $6S1 per mile on track, j This concoction, according to Brad while in 1921 the taxes per mile had ley. would prolong life and mean- been increased to $1,223. These are some of the practicalities and disorders ever claimed for questions involved in any campaign for ownership of utilities, and trans - portation. They are of interest to There are many home brewers am the public because the inforamtion bilious enough to attempt to manu kas a large value to the taxpayers facture Bradley's formula, no doubt. who will be affected by heavier taxes! falling on all property that remains in private ownership. :o: YOUR OWN BOSS The Armour meat packing com- pany tells its 60.000 employes theyjoid thines over and over "ir-iin in can become silent partners in partners in the business by buying preferred stock This stock will be sold to employes on the installment plan. It will pay guaranteed dividends of 7 per cent. Only a few years since the Armour rm was Practically "a closed cor portion. That is to say, the Armour family owned most of it and con trolled all of it. Observe a straw showing which way the wind's blowing. There's really nothing unusual about the Armour method of letting employes buy an interest in the busi- ness. Many businesses alreadv haveh,. i the same system in operation. I It's the ideal way to save. The m.-inuu usuaiiy is lor me employe to 1 1 11 . I subscribe to pay 60 much a week, then that amount is regularly taken from his pay envelope. The employe with stock In the bus iness is more loyal and works harder. That s the theory, at any rate, and it averages true. So it's a definite part of the "efficiency" movement. You never can tell where such a thing, once started, will lead. Take a business employing 100,000 men. If each of them investigated $1,000, there's a fund of 100 mMlion dollars. Quite a fund, that. Will the day come when emploj-cs by their savings, will buy a controll ing interest, then gradually take 07or the business that employs them? An interesting prospect, decidedly a possibility. :o: OLD DAN'S DEFI Dan O'Leary, the famous long dis tance walker, is S2 years old but he chall enges all comers, regardless of age. to walk 500 miles for a side bet of $1,000 to $3,000. Dan's certainly ambitious for his years.

At 8, the average man drcad3 walking farther than the corner. O'Leary's greatest stunt, year ago. was walking 1.000 miles in 1.000 nours. Doctors had claimed that such a feat was Impossible, that no !,, i , ,.t ... , iuuim t,iaiiu me strain. uan cnu It because he had the "nothing is impossible" attitude. So have all people who accomplish great things uur mental attitude toward an ob- stacle, when we fear it. is nnt to hold us back more than the obstacle it- All told, Dan O'Leary has walked more than 125,000 miles in contests And 26,000 of these miles have been covered since 1908 when he passed his sixty-seventh birthday.

ETERNAL HOKUM About 200 years ago Richard Brad ley published a "family dictionary" in which he said: "To attain an ad- vanced and extreme old age, take j three pound 3 of. rosewater, five ounces of orange and lemon peel I dried in the shade, nutmeg, clove land cinnamon, of each three ounces; a pound of red rosea that have been J gathered two days, a pinch of laurel j leaves; put all these together with some rosewater, bed upon bed, into a glass of limebeck, distill them very gently with a Bath Mary, and keep Jthe water that comes out for your I use." jtime effect all the cures for infirmi- Jany patent medicine by a street faker.

The trouble with these attempts to find a method of making people live 150 or more years is that, even if scientists discovered how. no one would live up to the rules. It is like going to a doctor.
