nat the servant who opened the door
Tould not let him in. thinking he was
l burglar"
Morris had a temper, also sound
-eeth. Once in n fury. he bit silver
liable fork all out of shape. On anoth-
n occasion he hurled fifteenth cen
curry folio at workman. The book
vent through the workshop door. In
his fits of anger Morris would drive his
dead against wall or bite deep into
the window frame.
Morris was honestly socialist. When
his workshops and their contents were
worth $4,000, he surrendered all prof
S and took foreman's wages, thus en-
bin. the business to pay $40 per
.,-cek better wages 70 each man.
Morris began designing wall papers
al decorations by accident, because
ne couldn't find any Gt to buy. Nor
lid he use in designing, except ut first,
sad colors. Once he showed rich
customer some bright Hammersmith
carpets.
Are these all?" asked the buyer.
but I thought your colors were sub
dued"

WASHINGTON. July 13-It Is alto
gether probable that the next annual
report OF the Internal Revenue Bureau

the commissioner This. however. was
something less than the estimates ac'
cepted by generally welI-informed men,

the opinion that the law might probably
