To the lawyer was deputized the task

Nforier declares that It parents had
to pay a tax on babies people would

"little strangers" into the World, and
that it would be one step forward to.
"better babies,"
' This would not be the first tax on
babies, however, for in 1695 there Was
an actual .tax babies in England.
A tax of two shillings had to be padd
at the birth of each baby. This fell
VerY heavily upon the parents, for at
that time a shilling meant much more
than it does to -day. The nobility, too,
felt the burden of the taxes, for each
baby was taxed accOrding to rank,
and the birth of a child of a duke,
added thirty pounds to the revenue.
Beards were once the subect of tax-
a.tion. In the time of Peter the Great
each man was taxed one hUndred
rubles if he wore a beard. Queen
Elizabeth put a tax upon beards, too,
and each man was taxed three farth-
