to consider after one passes the me-

kittenish and not to add to ones

It is not always the most expen.
sive gowns, hats, etc., that give the
best effects. 1t is largely in choosing

There is almost as much care re-
quired in adjusting veil as in dc

creases across the face can make

hideous.
A properly adjusted veil often
makes a very plain face quite at

also very important and should be
carefully considered.

is usually most becoming. A young

FOR PERMANENT SIDEWALKS
Connecticut Avenue Bridge to Have
Two. Eight Feet Wide.

After delay of nearly seven years.
dating from the completion of the struc-
ture in the spring of 1907, arrangements
are now being made to provide the Con-
necticut Avenue bridge with two perma-
nent sidewalks eight feet wide each.
Because OF scarcity of funds at the
time the bridge was finished the engineer
department of the District government
was able to. install only temporary sde-
walks of a width of four feet each, al
though the curb lines were set out to the
full distance Of eight feet on each side.
The eurbs recently have been readjusted
and orders given for the laying of the
permanent cement walks. The expense
VIII be met out OF the general approDrta-
ton for the repair of bridges.

Forced to Reject First Proposals.

Various causes have contributed to the
long delay in getting the Q Street bridge
improvement started. After various legal
wrangles had been adjusted the District
authorities found it necessary to reject
the first lot of sealed proposals received
and prepare new specifications because
the lowest bid submitted was in excess
of the appropriation of $4,000 for the
construction of the bridge proper, with
out the approaches.
Mr.. Guidone's figures are within the
amount available, and it is considered
more than likely that he will be
awarded the contract The remainder
of the appropriation will be expended
on the approaches to the bridge and
the ornamental features.

COMPLICATIONS MET
IN TAX COLLECTION

The collection at the source of the in
come tax on salaries and rentals and
such, during what remains Of the cur
rent calendar year, is complicated by the
tax on incomes. above the exemptions
received since March /, and by reason Of
putting the law into operation after the
greater part of the year Is elapsed. 1t
has been found necessary to divide re-
sponsibility between the Withholding
agent and the observation-disclosures the
Withholding agent would bear 1t all in
normal year-and to apportion the
amount Of exemption for five-sixths of
the year. from March to December 81
In a normal year the Withholding agent
when payments Of salary or rentals to
an individual reach the aggregate Of
$1,000. will begin withholding the / per
cent at the source. keeping back not only
the tax on payments in excess of the
$1,000, but on the So, 600 already paid. The
exception to this Is when exemption is
claimed. when the Withholding agent will
withhold only the tax on the amount in
excess Of the exemption, 5000 or $1,000.
as the case may be. The responsibility Of
the Withholding agent extends over the
entire calendar year.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-11-06
Treasury Regulation.

The regulation drafted by the Treasury
Department to govern this point reads:
"A withholding agent who pays month
ly or periodically during the year interest
Except income derived from interest upon
bonds and mortgages, or deeds Of trust,
or other similar obligations Of corpora
tons, ETC., upon which the normal tax of
/ per cent has been withheld at the
source, as provided by regulations), rents,
salaries. wages. ETC., shall not withhold
the said tax until such time as the rents,
salaries. wages, ETC.. shall have reached
an aggregate amount in excess of 5000.
When such amount has been reached he.
she or it shall withhold the tax on the
whole $4,000 and excess thereof, unless
the person to whom the income is due
files with him, her or it the notice
claiming exemption in which ca se
the withholding agent shall withhold only
the tax on the income in excess of said
exemption of $1,000 or $1,000 Gas the case
may be-, and the tax SO withheld shall be
returned and paid as required by law"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-11-06
Exemption for This Year.

To meet the extraordinary conditions OF
putting the tax into operation toward
the end Of a calendar year, as Is being
DONE the regulation will not REQUIRE q
withholding agent to deduct and with
hold prior to November 1. this year. the
! per cent tax for which an individual
may be liable. Whenever the total amount
of the income paid to any person by
Withholding agent after October 81. this
year, shall be in excess of 5000. then.
in that event. the withholding agent shall
be liable for and shall deduct and with
hold the tax on such amount unless the
individual claims exemption.
The exemption allowable for this wear
is five-sixths of full normal exemp
tion-providing for income over i've
sixths of the year. from March i to De-
cember 31-or s.. 500 for unmarried indi.
viduals and s., 50 for those who are
married.
The Individual will be held responsible
for all income received prior to Noyem
Der /, and subsequent to March 1.
