In memory of GEORGE VAN HERPT,
who died June goth, 1901.
He is the one we gave our love.
Gone to rest in heaven above;
With the holy and the blest,
He sweetly sleeps on Jesus breast,
He's standing down at Jordans side,
Waiting for loved ones to cross the
tide;
In that land where Angels sing,
Where death cannot give a bitter
sting.
He is looking across with watchful eye,
For loved ones coming by and by;
And their tears will be turned TO Joy
When they see their baby boy.

trloate One.
A large part OF the revenue tax will be
taken off today, and business men having
| unused stamps on hand are likely TO find
( it troublesome, though quite possible. to
| dispose of them. The Government has
made provision Tor the redemption of the
| stamps, but the red-tape requirements
are so intricate that holders OF the stamps
in small lots are likely to prefer 10 lose
them rather than 10 try to sell them.
On this account il is thought by some
| men OF business that the Government
may profit as much as s.. soc. 900. The
smallest amount redeemable is S7.oo.
Furthermore, the claimant must make
an affidavit and file it with the internal
revenue officer of the district, stating
from whom the stamps were purchased,
accompanied also by an affidavit OF the
first purchaser OF the stamps. Thus it is
necessary for the claimant TO trace the
ownership and TO secure affidavit Of each
owner back to the original purchase from
Uncle Sam.
Tohave imprinted stamps upon checks.
drafts and other documents redeemed
the holders must forward the instrument
to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
at Washington, either by express or reg
istered letter, at their own expense; and
once turned into the Government for
redemption, they cannot be returned
to the owners. This ia ruling that will
prevent many from sending in their print
ed checks, because, being in book form,
and numbered serially, they will not care
to give them up entirely especially where
there are only several dollars worth.
The result will be that long after July
/ checks with the revenue stamps print
ed thereon will be in circulation. No
stamps will be redeemed after July, 'o3,
