INCOME IT, SCHEDULE.

MISUNDERSTANDING to esti-
mates completed by the treasury ex-
perts, 425, 900 American citizens must
keep such accurate account Of their
incomes this year that they will be
able to report TO the income tax col
lector next spring exactly how much
they owe the government under the
new income tax law.
SO far as the taxable American is
concerned, the income tax law is now
practically in force against him. While
the tariff law in which the law Is EN-
bodied will not be signed until next
week, the first returns do not have to
be made to the internal ven col
lectors before March /, 1914. But when
the returns are made they will Gov
er the income OF citizens from March
1, 1913, to December 81, and the first
payment of tax will be for money re-
ceived during this period.
Every single person (wcitizen or for
eign r~esident) whose annual income
exceeds $4,000. and every married per
son with an income above $4,000, Is
expected to report his or her re-
ceipts in detail to the government
agents March l of each year.
To Produce S82, oOo, 900.
The estimate completed indicates
that the income tax will produce $780,
29S,000 from the $4,000 persons taxed.
To this will be added the $685. 00, 900
or more produced by the present cor
poration tax, which is continued as
part of the law.
President Wilson. the federal judges
of the Supreme court now holding Of
fee and employees "of a state or any
political subdivision thereof" are the
only persons specifically exempted
from the tax by the new law. The
president and judges now in office
were made exempt to escape any ques-
tions of the constitutionality of the
law, and their successors in office will
be compelled to pay the al
First Burden Is on Citizen.
The general public is expected to
give close study TO the new law In
the next few months, as the first bur-
den of the tax payment rests with the
individual citizen, and his failure to
report his income is punishable by a
fine.
1t is admitted hat when first re-
turns are made many taxable persons
probably will escape payments. but
with each year the governments lists
of persons with taxable incomes will
be made more nearly complete.
Methods of Collecting Tax.
Two primary methods of collecting
the tax are contained In the law. One
Is that the individual etu made by
the citizen; the other the returns by
corporations and other employers who
pay 'Gr employees taxes AT the
source" Under the law as Ii will be
signed by President Wilson next week.
every large company employing labor
will be compelled to report any regu-
lar salaries II pays In excess OF the
$4,000 figures. and will pay the taxes
for its employees and deduct the tax
from their pay envelopes
This payment at the source" will
apply to salaries, rents, interests, roy
alties. partnership profits and some
other sources OF income. and persons
receiving such incomes must be pre-
pared to show that the money has
paid its tax at its source.

persons. The new provision allowing

HAVE DAINTY EFFECT
TABLEWARE OF GLASS SETS
FORTH DINNER TABLE.
Material Has Largely Superseded the
erstwhile Use of Heavy Silver
Lends Itself Particularly to
Matching Color Schemes.

Brilliant glassware enhances the
plalnest tables and makes the absence
OF heavy silver scarcely apparent
Beautiful glass candlesticks CLEAN as
brightly as silver ones and there is a
happy union of beauty and usefulness
IN these pleasing articles. Thick glass
is not more durable than the dainty,
thin ware. In fact, it will not with
stand hot liquids so well, as 1t cannot
so readily expand.
A heavy cut glass punch bowl came
to pieces at dinner party a few
nights ago, when hot mulled cider was
poured into it. Such accidents may be
avoided if the cool ingredients are put
IN first and a silver ladle placed in the
bowl before the hot liquids are added.
The silver, being a good conductor, abb
serbs the heat.
All fragile ware will withstand heat
if the simple precaution of placing
spoon In the dish, cup or glass is OBJ
served
New tableware shows glass dishes
and plates for uses that glass has
never been put to before. There are
salad bowls, plates, spoons and forks
OF this fragile ware that seem very ap-
propriate for crisp green salads. They
bear dainty fern-iike tracery that har
monies with the green garnishes.
The new individual salt and celery
dips and vases now have separate lin
ings OF colored glass that may be
changed to match the color scheme of
the dinner. The mahogany framed
glass trays are also lined with differ
ent colors for various affairs.
The mirror centerpiece, that is so
popular for table decorating, is now
accompanied by individual mirrors on
which are placed the flower holders
that mark each place. They multiply
the brightness of the flowers and their
delicate colors.
The life of these charming table &C
cessories may be prolonged by gentle
care. The proper method Of washing
glass is to use warm water and borax
in one pan and rinsing water of the
same temperature in the second. Clean
with soft cloth and no soap, for
soap makes glass cloudy and dull.
Glass must not drain after rinsing
or it will show streaks; wash, rinse,
dry quickly and polish at once. Soft
linen, old six or tissue paper will make
glass CLEAN brightly. If the articles to
be cleaned are obstinate let them soak
until the dirt is loosened
Salad bowls, oil cruets, milk glasses
and pitchers are troublesome to care
for, as the oils have tendency to dull
their brilliancy. Wash these first in
cold water softened with ammonia,
then clean as usual.
Decanters and water bottles soon &C
quire a deposit of lime. This may be
removed with lemon juice or vinegar.

PARIS ADOPTS NEW MATERIAL
Drap de Taffetas Has Attained Wide
Popularity for the Really Dressy
Tailor Mades.

Drap de taffetas is one of the new
materials for dressy tailor mades;
and very dashing it is, soft and bril-.
liant at the same time. Moire makes
lovely tailor suits, also cashmere de
satin, drap de satin, etc. Surah of
very coarse rep is used, but up to the
moment has not much following. Fou-
lard silk has not been fashionable in
Paris for years. This summer we see
a few examples of satin foulard,
which, however, appear cheap and
shiny. Crepe de chine, supple taffetas,
charmeuse, charmeur, all these make
splendid and practical afternoon cos
tunes, while tulle illusion, hand painted
or embroidered, and mousseline de
sole, treated the same way, compose
frocks for the women with whom
money Is of no consequence.
One of the houses on the Rue de la
Paix is making a specially Of combin-
ing many summer materials in one
frock A dress seen today, with the
foundation of crepe like shantung,
cream color, had front which formed
a rather tight oyerskirt of very fine
embroidered net. The corsage was
made half of net, half of mousseline
always in the same tone-with cuffs
and finish about the low. round neck
of black tulle illusion in the form of
a Pierrot, as the plated fiat collar is
called. At one side OF the ceinture,
which was of shantung, there was a
loose velvet orchid in violet We find
the Pierrot collar with cuff to match
on many of the summer corsages and
blouses.

New Kind of Glove.

1t is not possible to go out in the
afternoon wearing a frock with a new
kind of short sleeve and not wear the
long gloves which the manufacturers
have invented to meet the occasion.
These are 35 buttons in length, and
even longer, and they are wrinkled
from wrist to shoulder and cover all
the arm.
The effect is not pretty unless one
wears white or light gown, in which
case the long expanse of white kid on
the arm is not decided contrast; but
when one wears gown of any ordi-
nary color, and especially of black.
the white or buff sleeve is too conspic-
uous for beauty.
Yet what is one going to do if one in
sists upon wearing this new tiny
sleeve? The public should be thankful
that there has been a glove immedi-
ately made to wear with it or we
should no doubt see women going
around with bare arms swinging free
of their frocks, like prizefghters.
