very few commodities." Ho would not
outline what they would bo.
The president does not think the spe-
cial tax will remain in effect long;
Sees III Duty.
The president said:
"1 come to you to discharge a. duty
which I wish with all ray heart I might
have been spared but it is a duty
which is very clear and therefore I per-
form it without hesitation or apology.
I come to ask very earnestly that ad-
ditional revenue be provided for the
government
"During the month of August there
was. as compared with the correspond-
ing month of last year a falling off of
J10.629.53S in the revenue collected from
customs. A Jcon tinuation of this de-
crease In the same proportion through-
out the current fiscal year would prob
ably mean a loss of customs revenues
of from 0e.0O to 100900000. I need
not tell you to what this falling off is
due. It is due chief in part not to the
reduction recently nude in the customs
duty but to the great decrease in im-
portations and that is dje to the extra-
ordinary extent or the industrial area
affected by the present war in Europe.
Conditions have arisen which no man
foresaw they affect the world of com-
merce and economic production; and
they must be faced and dealt with.
Delay Would be Unwise.
"It would be very unwise to postpone
dealing with them. Delay in such a
matter and in the particular circum-
stances in which we now find ourselves
as a nation might involve consequences
of the most embarrassing and most de-
plorable sort for which I. for one
would not care to be responsible. It
would be very dangerous In the present
circumstances to create a moment's
doubt as to the strength and sufficiency
of the treasury of the United States;

Its ability to assist to steady and to
sustain the financial operations of the
country's business. If the treasury Is
known or even thought to be weak
where would be our peace of mind?
The whole industrial activity of the
country would be chilled and demoral-
ized Just now the peculiar difficult
financial problems are being successful-
ly dealt with with great self possession
iA rrj n!M and very sound judg
ment- but they are only In process of
being worked out. If the process of
solution is to be completed no one must
be given reason to doubt the solidity
and adequacy of the government which
stands behind the whole method by
which our difficulties are being met
and handled.
Distress Would Follow Recall.
"The treasury itself could get along
for a considerable period no doubt
without immediate resort to new
sources of taxation. But at what cost
to the business of the community? Ap-
proximately J75.O00.0O0. a large part of
the present treasury balance. Is now on
deposit with national banks distributed
throughout the country. It is deposited
of course on calL I need not point out
to you what the probable consequences of
inconvenience and distress and con-
fusion would be if the diminishing in
come of the treasury should make it
necessary rapidly to withdraw these de-
posits. And yet without additional
revenue that plainly mifrht become nec
essary and the time when It became
necessary could not be controled or de-
termined by the convenience of the
country It would have to be de-
termined by the operations and neces-
sities of the treasury Itself. Such risks
are not necessary and ought not to be
run. We cannot too scrupulously or
carefully safeguard a financial situa-
tion which is at best while war con-
tinues in Europe difficult and abnor-
mal. Hesitation and delay are the
worst forms of bad policy under such
conaitions.
Should Not Borrow.
"And we ought not to borrow. We
ought to resort to taxation however
we may regret the necessity of put-
ting additional temporary burdens on
our people. To sell bonds would be
to make a most untimely and unjusti-
fiable demand on the money market;
untimely because this is manifestly
not the time to withdraw working
capital from other uses to vay the
government's bills; unjustifiable be-
cause unnecessary. The country Is
abl to pay any Just and reasonable
taxes without iSstress. And to every
other form of borrowing whether for
long periods or for short there is the
same objection. These are not the
circumstances this is at this particu-
lar moment and in this particular exi-
gency not the market to borrow large
sums of money. What we are seeking
is to ease and assist every financial
transaction not to add & single addi-
tional embarrassment to the situation.
The people of this country are both
intelligent and profoundly patriotic.
They are ready to meet the present
conditions in the right way and to
support the government with generous
self denial. They know and under-
stand and will be intolerant only of
those who dodge responsibility or who
are not frank with. them.
Not of Our Own Making.
"The occasion is not of our own
making. We had no part In making
it But It is here. It affects us as
directly and palpably almost as If we
were participants in the circumstances
which gave rise to it. We must ac-
cept the Inevitable with calm Judg-
ment and unruffled spirits like men
accustomed to deal with the unex-
pected habituated to take care of
themselves masters of their own af-
fairs and their own fortunes. We
shall pay the bill though we did not
deliberately Incur It.
Urges 100000.000 Be Railed.
"In order to meet every demand
upon the treasury without delay or
peradventure. and In order to keep
the treasury strong unquestionably
strong and strong throughout the
present anxieties I respectfully urge
that additional revenue of flOfl.OOO-
000 be raised through Internal taxes
devised in your wisdom to meet the
emergency. The only suggestion I
take the liberty of making is that
such sources of revenue be chosen as
will begin to yield at once and yield
with a certain and constant flow."

Belgium Is no bigger than a con-

energetic automobile can cross it in
two hours. But it is one of the busi-
est spots on the globe. It exports
J1S0.000.000 worth of goods eaci. year
and raises almost enough product on
its corner lot farms and pocket gar-
dens to feed Its population. Ever

have to draw milk carts though when
a Belgian farmer Las a valuable dog;
he does not risk it in hot weather. He
makes his wife draw the cart.
Belgium produces coal. lace porce-

immense quantities. It also does a
flourishing business with tourists.

Belgium is a monarchy but Is not as

X FTER Mrs.
Tabby had talked .
AA about the gardens In Tabbyland
and had given Teddy such a de-
lightful surprise because his was so well
kept all of the kitties and puppies
began to take a great Interest in their
special plots of ground. They watered
them and tended them until there was
scarcely anything left of them. Tes-
sle and Tottle. the two kitty girls at
Mrs. Tabbys house never let a morn-
ing go by without getting out to their
gardens.
One morning they went out as usual
with their clean aprons on and their
shoes off and everything ready for
regular garden work. Tottle carried
the watering pot full of water and
Tessie carried the wooden rake. The
day before Tommy and Ted had dug
up a new plot of ground and she was
to rake it clear of stones and weeds.
The walk from the house seemed
long and the watering pot heavy and
Tettle looked enviously at Tessie. She
carried the rake under her arm and
it seemed no trouble at all. Then they
came to the garden: Tessie set to work
with a will pulling away the stones
and weeds and humming as she did so.
.tome lootcea at her so much more

that the garden really suffered for
most oi the water went in one place.
"Tessie always does get the easy
things to do." thought the envious lit-
tle kitty girL "She picks out what is
easiest of all and does It. I wish I
had choen to rake." She sighed and
shifted the pot to the other paw mak-
ing up her mind as she did so that she
would get Mrs. Tabby to let them
change about.
So she said nothing to Tessie. but
when Mrs. Tabby came out to see how
they were getting along. Tottie asked:
"Mother mav I rake awhile I want to
change about?" Mrs. Tabby looked at
her sharply but merely smiled and
said: "Verv well don't quarrel about
it Tessie trade with your sister" and
without anv complaint good na tared
Tessie took the watering pot add gave
up the rake.
Mrs. Tabby stood by to see how they
progressed.
Then Tottle began to rake pulling
and working very hard. Soon she
stopped and wiped her face with her
paw. and pushed back her hat. "My
goodness gracious but this is hard
work." She glanced over at Tessie.
but that kitty girl seemed very well .

In both hands and watched that erery

really seemed to enjoy it Just as much
as she had the raking.
Tottle raked for several minutes In
ground few nations can compare with
them.
Belgium Is composed of Flemish
and Walloons and for many centuries
was run over by the greater nations
as if It had been merely a chicken in
the road. Thousands of battles have
been fought on Belgian soil with the
Belgians as Innocent bystanders.
Waterloo was fought within IS mlls
of Brussels and forms a great natural
resource of the country today the sale
of souvenir cards and bullets being
enormous. For hundreds of years
Belgium as a territory was handed
around from one nation to another
and In the last century it was given to

the Dutch. This was too much. After
the Dutch had tried to compel the
Belgians to learn the peculiar and ter-
rifying Dutch language the latter re-
volted and became a separate nation.
Belgium also produces the famous
Belgian hare which seems to be the
only citizen of the country who knows
how to run.

several great ugly angle worms she
gave up. "res lets change again.
she called. "I don't like this either I
think that I want to do the watering."
Mrs. Tabby paid no attention for Tes-
sie gave up the pot at once and began
raking again as it she had never
stopped. Tottle watered the garden
but a little distance when again she
looked at Tessie. That kitty girl was
just as happy and contented as ever.
Tottle looked longingly she had made
a mistake and the raking was easier.
But as she started to call Tessie. she
met the eyes of Mother Tabby. Then
somehow or other she felt ashamed
and hung her head and Mrs. Tabby
shook hers.
"Come over to me dear." she said
quietly and Tottle set down the big
pot and went slowly toward Mrs. (
Tabby. "Don't you know what the
trouDie is. aear"' sne said as sne
stooped and put her arms about the
frowning kitty girl. Tottle pouted with
her paw in her mouth and shook her
head.
"Ifs Just this. You are not trying
to make the garden prettier but are
trying to amuse yourself. That Is why
you are dissatisfied. If there were a
hundred other things to do you would
want to try them all and then not be
content. But Tessie Is working for
the flowers for she loves them. It
does not matter to her what It is any
work that helps the flowers makes her
content. Now go back and think of the
plants that will grow and not about
yourself or whether or not you are
happy or have the easiest Job." Tot-
tle kissed her mother shook herself
