' \ Sure He'd Catch It.?In the days before "prohibition, the temperance nitor always pictured a drunken married man aa going1 straight home from the saloon and beating his wife. However there have been Instances of a drunken married man going home .and being beaten by his wife. Thomas fc. Woolwine, the district attorney of ' Loi Angeles county, tells of an In- * stance where a married man was so 1 -often and so severely punished by his ( wife for arriving home peacefully ( drunk, that the neighbors protested. { "When he comes home loaded like that, why don't you treat him right?" j they said. "I do treat him right," slip replied, i "the last time I nearly broke his **k." f "But why don't you try kindness for a change?" they suggested. "When be comes home like that, make a fuss t over him. Hand him his slippers and { "4-*- Him a nlea. hot CUD of , ??0 |/? pv ivuvi ...... ? ? _ ^ ?oflfee. See if that won't cure him." Accordingly the next time he arrived j "home drunk, instead of greeting him with a flatlron, she led him to a chair i in front of the fire, unlaced his shoes, r brought hlrti his slippers and a feyr mtnutes later he was sipping a fresh- t mode cup of coffee. . r I "There, my dear." she said. "How < do-you feel now?" \ ' He pressed her hand and spoke to e Cher affectionately if a trifle muzzily; t "I f-feel f-flne," he said. "But I'll -catch it from my wife when I get t bome." e * , ^ , ? Going SomOrf?Felix Lamond, direc- ^ tor of the music .department in the < American academy at .Rome, was at ^ .^re time assistant conductor of the Carl Rosa opera company of which T Iiuigi Arditi was the conductor.

Then he picked up a stone from the c walk and threw it at the window. It p broke with a startling noise, and instantly an old gentleman?his .face purple with rage?appeared at the ruined sash. "And that," the undergraduate con- ~ eluded Imperturbably, "is the master himself." . .. v . . Part of Him Native.?"Are you a native of this parlBh?" asked the Scottish sheriff of a witness.

U - 21! ? A Fine Lecture.?One of the numerous English novelists who came to America to tour the lyceum circuit, delivered, a lecture in Lbs Angeles last winter, and Rob Wagner who writes about moving picture people and also writer for them with equal success, went to hear him. l"Dld he deliver a good lecture?" I j ashed Rob. Wo Pr?h ?cniri- "He I V 1UU irxjx. i iv uiu, delivered a peach of a lecture. J "What was it about?" I asked. "He didn't say," Rob replied. "And I nobody ktiew him well enough to ask him." Made Same Sound.?Some time ago in Life there appeared the picture of j a New York child sojourning in the i coiintry on a fresh-air excursion. He j is pointing to a tree on which a bird ; is singing. "Oh. look .ft "the boyd!" he said. "That's a bird not a boyd," the teacher tells him. "Well," the fresh-air youngster says, "it makes a oolse like a boyd." j BONUS IN THE SENATE. Measuro Will Probably Be Put to Sleep Until After Elections. Washington, March 24.?Scarcely had the senate finished its fight over the four power treaty today when the house laid the long controverted soldiers' bonus bill in its 'ap. Senate business woe halted for the presentation of the measure which was accomplished with the usual formalities. Appearing in the midst of a controversy as to the time for taking up the next series or treaties me I1UUOC clerk was escorted part of the way iown the center aisle by the clerk of he senate, who announced: "Mr. President, a message from the louse Of representatives." Immediately recognized by Senator Wadsworth (Republican) of New York, who was presiding, the house clerk nadc a deep bow. "Mr. President," he said, "I am dj;ected by the house of representatives o inform the senate that the house has >assed H. R. 10,874, to provide adjusted compensation for veterans of the (Vorld war in which the concurrence of ho senate is resDectfully requested." A titter ran arour^d the crowded galeries and there were broad smiles by nany of the senators. There was a suggestion that the bill >e referred" to the appropriation comnittee. Senator Harrison (Democrat) )f Mississippi, declared, he did not yant it sent to the finance committee, ocplaining it might "disturb'the bonus >ill that is sleepifig there." "There is no telling," he said, "when hat bill will wake up and I believe we ?ught to send this measure to some jommittc-e that will act on it."( There followed a squabble as to vhat committee should consider it, but Senator Wadsworth decreed it should ro to the finance committee. Chairman McCumber of that comnittee, said the bonus measure could rot be taken up until after the tariff >111 had been reported to the senate, >ut he thought there would be quick ictlon on both in the committee and ?n the senate floor. He said the tariff >111 probably would be sidetracked emporarily in the senate to let it .h rough. Senator Smoot of Utah, the ranking ^publican on the committee, said the neasurc prooaoiy wuuiu, u? ??! :hanged. "The bonus bill that passes the senite will carry a means of financing it," le declared, adding1 that the financing vould not. be done by means of bonds." Asked if a sales tax would be the Inancing medium as recommended by 'resident Harding to the house ways ind means committee, the Utah senaor said: "I think so, if we have to pome to hat." Senator McCumher was of the opinon that members of the committee rould want to confer with President iarding on the subject before acting Inally. Hanford MacNider, national comnander of the American Legion, in a ormal statement today discussing the tonus measure, expressed confidence hat it weuld meet with the approval if former service men and declared hat legislation that had twice passed he house was inevitable. THE INHERITANCE TAX. )oubtful Features of the Law Will Be Settled by the Courts. Plans to collect the newly created nheritance tax are being put into cfect by the state tax commission, intructions having gone out from the ommisslon's office at Columbia, to the irobate Judges of the state, through rhom the assessments for the tax will e made. .

The question has been raised.in "connection with such a case in Richland county, that the estate is not subject to the tax. This case will probably be taken to the courts to settle the point in question. The inheritance tax became a law February 2?, 1922. Blank forms on which reports of estates and beneficiaries are to be made have been sent by the tax commission to all probate Judges and instructions for reporting: the amount of estates have also been sent. The state tax commission is a busy agency these days. Its office force is being increased to take care of its work, more than doubled over night by the recently enacted revenue measures. Collection of the gasoline tax, the income tax and the inheritance tax as well as the equalization of assess merits air*.inst other classes of property, is now the work of this commission. Cases to test the constitutionality~of the state income ta* and the test case in regard to the inheritance tax arc probably to be brought, but the commission will proceed with its duty, as provided by the new law, according to a statement by the tax commission. JUMPED FROM TRAIN ! ' ' ' . ' ' - !. Wily Negro Prisoner. Makes Slick Getaway. Jumping from a window of a moving train between Greenwood and Atlanta, Weslty Davis, said by officers to be the wiliest desperado ever sen?. to the chaingang of this county, once more escaped from Greenwood officers last Sunday. W. J. Canfleld/ superintendent, was on his way back from Atlanta with Davis when the prisoner escaped near Howell's station, a short distance out of Atlanta. Davis claimed to be crippled and was walking with a crutch. The hand with which the crutch was grasped i was not nanacunea. rsting ?uuir<.u enter a lavatory on the car, Davis thumbolted the door and jumped from the window before Mr. Canfleld could have the door unlocked. The negro left his crutch and. a small wallet containing several- bottles of medicine, a tattered Bible and a few letters. Sent up for a year for attempting to break jail where he was confined'for a minor offense, Davis escaped from the Greenwood county gang last March, relea Ring six other prisoners, two of whom were life termors. He was arrested ini Atlanta on a minor charge and while waiting trial is alleged to have stolen |50 from a fellow prisoner, later receiving a prison sentence for the latter offense. At the expiration of his sentence in Atlanta Greenwood 'authorities were notified to come for him. A Remarkable Man. ? Monandaa Gandhi, the non-cooperationlst leader of India, has been sentenced to spend six years in rlpson. He pleaded guilty to all the charges made against him. Also he made a long statement which is summarized as follows in an Associated Press dispatch: "He admitted that teaching disaffection against the existing system of government had become almost a passion with him. He declared he took all the blame for the disorders in Madras, Bombay and Chauri Chaura; but he added that if he were liberated he would keep up his work. Non-vtolenoc was the first and last article of his faith, he bore no ill-will against any administrator of Bargains IT HAS long been ac;nowledged of all men rho know that when the msiness people of York mite for any special pur>ose, whether it be busi- . less, social or otherwise, he result is an occasion hat spells success and ,rives the people somehing to remember.

The pollen extracts are in no way ! like dope, but the process of immunlI zation is similar. Beginning with one part of the pollen to 20,000 parts of diluent, eventuully the doctor works up , to injections of one part of pollen to , only 100 parts of diluent. I If the patient fails to react to this strong a dose i f pollen it is presumed that she is no longer sensitive to that particular agent of hay fever. If her nasal mcmbrance is especially sensitive it may be that other untested . agents will still attack it and she may buffer from hay fever in spite of im, munization to one kind of pollen, but i the chances are good that the patient will escape, or at mopt she will have a slight attack. , Succesaos anti Failures " , The clinic doctor says that according to tine experience of men working in this field 25 to 30 per cent of the cases given preventive treatment are cured. Ten per cent, are not benefited the first year. The rest are benefited 50 to 75 per cent. Hay fever is not easily cured. Once a person has an attack, the membrane of the nose is weakened. Thereafter, that person is apt to be less able to withstand the pollen In the atmosphere. Regularly the attacks come at i the time of the' year when the air is * 1 i. Ulm filled with the agent wnicn auevia mm, unless he is cured by some treatment or unless he goes to a- place where the disturbing pollens do not follow. Doctors find that if the attacks arc prevented for several years the resist nor any disaffection toward the king's person." A remarkable utterance and a remarkable man. The, statement itself would surely be worth reading. It is not hard to imagine its effect upon Gandhi's followers as i t spreads through India. They will soon know it by heart; and we may be sure that t the brief summary which has come over the cables, though indicating accurately its character'and contents, conveys a" picture pallid as well as incomplete. It remains to be seen whether Gandhi in fell will not give the British government more trouble than Gafidhi at liberty.?News and Courier.
