Bachelor Tax.
From the London Chronicle.

We joke in this country over the ques-
tion of imposing a tax on bachelors, but
In Germany they have taken the matter
seriously. AT least that is what new
scheme being introduced next year will
really come to. At present in Germany
the income tax on an income of G32J
amounts to about 915. Next year this
sum will be reduced in the case of the
taxpayer who has two children, with fur
ther reductions for larger families. Rea-
tives for whose support taxpayer is
legally responsible will be considered as
children" Some bachelors might be abb 2
to score a point in this respect.

it soon became clear that raid was
being made on the place. After a search
warrant was read to Mrs. NJ Blume.
one of the officers said they had reason
TO believe that liquor was being sold

And accordingly in a short space of

and seventeen cases of bottled beer

of the Blumes.
