ALLEN COMPANY HEADS LIST
Big Losses Through
Enfo, cement of the Income Tax Law
Personal Tax Assessment for Year
Will be Much Larger Than in 1912.

The assessors completed the work of
assessing personal property in the city
on Wednesday afternoon and notWith-
standing the fact that many of the
large personal assessments have been
cut off by the operation of the income
tax law, the list shows that the per-
sonal assessment for the year will be
considerable in advance of the assess
ment of last year. As in former years
the great bulk of the personal proper
ty taxes will be paid by less than
thirty people and corporations in the
city In few cases a slight reduction
has been made in the personal property
assessments, but for the most part the
assessments are either the same as last
year or increased. There are some de-
cidedly large increases in The personal
assessments. The total of the assess
ment for personal property where the
amount is in excess of $4,000 shows
an amount considerable over the totaa
amount assessed for personal taxes
last year. The total of this amount
is $7,234,237.00 There are a vast num-
Der of smaller assessments returned
this year and the total of these will
bring probably two million dollars
more to the tax roll.
The total Of the books will not be
figured out for several days as the as
SCISSORS have been decidedly busy in the
closing days of the assessment period
and the writing up of the books was
left until after the last assessment had
been made. The list of the larger pay
ers of personal taxes will show num-
Der of familiar names missing, but this
is due to the fact that these people
have been assessed for income taxes
and under the law the same property
is not assessable as personal property.
This is particularly true of large
estates in the city where the estate has
its holdings invested in intangible
property. While the city would pre-
fer. to have this property assessed as
personal property the income tax will
add largely to the eity's fund.
1t must be remembered that the
figures given for the industrial plants
are for personal property only and that
the real estate owned by these COM
panies and the machinery in the plants
has been assessed under the head Of
real estate. The personal assessments
where the amounts are above 10000
follow:
American Brass Co. ......$ 512,868.00

TOILET SUGGESTIONS.


To remove stains on the nails, lem
on juice may be used with advantage.
Liquid ammonia, diluted, is also an
excellent: cleanser for: stains on che
nails and under the free edge of them,
but it should be charity used and not
taken as an everyday remedy for the
purpose. Qccasioi1aaly q little pumlce
stone Gin powderC OF. powdered cutie
fish bone may be used with water for
keeping the nails free from stains.
The white opaque spots that appear
so frequently on nails are said by
some to denote a weakness in the nail
formation matter, while others attrib-
ute them to a peculiar mental atti-
tude, hence they are commonly called
"gifts.'
. A simple nail rouge Is made by mix
Ing together some fresh lard and DOW
dered carmfne and pertaining with a
few drops of oil of. lavender or rose.
One of the finest manicure acids for
cleansing the nails consists Of tea
spoonful Of lime-juice, or vinegar,
added to three times the quantity of
warm water.
An excellent lotion for whitening
and softening the hands is made of
equal parts Of pure olive oil and gly-
cerine, beaten together and pertumed
with oil Of violets. Where glycerine is
objected to. a paste made of two
ounces Of beeswax and one ounce of
sweet almonds, may be used, instead
Of the lotion. Place the ingredients
in jar in a SAUCEPAN of boiling wa
ter, and let them melt together. Stir
until we'll mixed; and, when cold, pot
the paste and apply=it as often as nee.
essary: to the hands, or smear it in.
side sleeping gloves.
