Under th< resolution- passed the time is extend ed until June 1, 1922, with graduate* penalties and executions to go in th hands of sheriffs on September 1. Senator Wells could hardly recog nize his original resolution as passed but the amendments carried out hii desire to a lprge extent. The resolu tion provides for the following pen alties: One per cent for January, 1 per cent for February, 3 per cent foi March, 4 per cent for April, 5 per ceni for May and 7 per cent beginning June 1 and running until Septembei 1. They are not cumulative. Senatoi Beasley offered the amendment to de lay the placing of the executions ir the hands of sheriffs until Septembei 1 -?.t J. UIIUUI wie atwuii ui tiiu ocuatc the various county treasurers will is .sue the executions on and after Jum 1 but tlfey will be held until September 1 so any taxpayer may pay his taxes prior to September 1 withoul - dealing with the sheriff and payinp the cost of collections. Another important amendment of fercd b ySenator Moise of Sumter was adopted to provide that any persor paying taxes prior to June 1 would be construed to have paid his taxes "within the time allowed by law" ant thereby be entitled to vote in any general or special election for 1922. This amendment was to protect the rights of voters who did not pay their taxes prior to December 31, as the supremt court has held that a person is nol eligible to vote unless he has paic his tnxes within the time allowed bj law. RATS OVERRUN CITY OF BUDAPEST from the Russian famine area art by the death of cats which were eater by thousands during the war. Attention, Ex-Service Men! Here's news! Good news! On January 2, 1922, new rules concerning re instatement became effective and youi chance to get this insurance again was extended to March 4, 1926. If you are one of the unfortunate ex-service men who has allowed his insurance to lapse, Uncle Sam has t generous proposition to make to you. If you are in good health you car reinstate your term (war time) insurance by paying for only two months the cun-ent month and a month oi grace, and submitting a report of e medical examination. You can get this examination at any Veterans' Bureai Office. Take the example of a mar 24 years of age, he can reinstate $1,000 worth of term insurance foi $1.32 or $10,000 for $13.20. If he is older than 24 it will cost him more for each birthday; if he is younger il will cost less. If you are suffering from an injurj or disease contracted in, or aggravatec by, active military or naval service during the world war, you may reinstate, provided you are not totally anc permanently disabled, by payment ol all premiums in arrears, plus 5 pei cent interest. This must be accom panied by full medical examinatior (which may be made by any physiciar who is employed by the U. S. Vet erans' Bureau at the expense of th< government), in order that it maj be determined if your disabilities ar< due to service and furthermore thai you are not permanently and totally disabled. Forms for application for reinstate ment will be furnished by any offic? * of the U. S. Veterans' Bureau. At some time before March 4, 1926 all those who have not changed then war time policies into one of the si) forms of converted insurance must d< so, or their insurance will automati cally expire. These forms are Ordi nary Life, 20-Payment Life, 30-Pay ment Life, 20-Yenr Endowment, 30 Year Endowment, and Endowment ai age of f>2. It is to any man's ad vantage to convert soon, as he save! himself money in the long run. Pro tection on a converted policy is lesi than that on a term policy, and at th< end of a year any converted policy ha; a cash surrender value, cash loai value, paid up insurance, and extende< insurance. The premium rates 01 converted insurance never change, bu the dividends (which are payable an nually) will constantly increase. Any man owes protection to hii loved ones; he owes it to himself t< invest wisely, therefore, it is best t< exercise good judgment and reinstat and convert now. Mrs. Mary L.

DIAL OPPOSES TAX ON CHECKS By Hugh \Y. Roberts. Washington, Jan. 27.?The suggostion of the secretary of the treasury that if a soldiers' bonus is voted it will necessitate the enactment of slat utes requiring stamps for bank checks drew a vigorous protest front Senator N. B. Dial of South Carolina today. Senator Dial made the point that the tax .would cause the withdrawal of money from circulation and to a great extent retard business in its efsuggest hoarding with attendant dan-1 ger of permanent loss of money and would impose an unwarranted burden j on the small depositor of the country. "What the country needs is confidence in the future," Senator Dial said. "Such tax as is suggested would cause irritation and disgust, more costly to the government than the sum to be derived from its operation.-' The South Carolina senator, in course of his remarks, declared the pYosperous to be erroneous, and added that in South Carolina, probably] throughout the South, banks had lost money during the last two years. DAY OF ROUTINE IN I.OWF.R HOIISF. Its strenuous work filled meetings of the early days of the week left the house with little work to hej transacted yesterday and the repre-1 sentatives, after a session devoted to routine matters, adjourned early yesterday afternoon to meet again next Monday night. The large number of bills introduced was the only feature of the day. The only debate of the session came on the measure to enlarge the time for the redemption of property seized by sheriffs in default of taxes due from six months to one year. The bill, of which Representative J. H. West of Georgetown county is the author, was given a majority unfavorable reure, moving to strike out the enacting words. The motion, however, was defeated by a vote of 5 to fi.r>, the only members favoring the killing of the hill being: W. D. Rarnett of Columbia, .T. T.yles Glenn, Jr., of Ches-1 ter, J. Carl Kearse of Romberg, R. I.. McDavid of Greenville and W. T<. Riley of Bamberg. The defeating of the motion to strike out the enacting words of the hill was followed by the passage of the measure to third reading without a further record vote. The bill to require all telegraph and telephone companies to transmit messages between points in the stale by I the nearest direct route was sent to 11. _ ! tile senate* alter iiniiK |ia?seii <ui iu third reading without further debate.

"South Carolina Product," was also among the number of bills passed on final reading and sent to the senate. The measure, introduced by Representative Eugene S. Blease of Newberry, to prevent the exhibition of all tented shows, except circuses, in the state, was also sent to the senate with the house's approval. Carnivals exhibiting at state and county fairs are exempted from the provisions of the bill. The Sheppard-Barnett had check bill was reached on the 30 minute caP for local and uncontested matters but was not taken up for action when F. W. Toole of Aiken objected to its immediate consideration. The Hamblin-Hendrieks cotton mill 48 hour bill was again reported out favorably by the judiciary committee by substitute, the substitute making 55 hours the maximum working week and ten hours the maximum working day in the cotton mills of the state. The bill takes its place at the head of the list of special orders.
