richest commercial and financial railroad
centers in the east, controlling much Of
the trade in the south and east and the
Allegheny region, besides having nearly
twice the population of Washington As
against the Washington s15.75 per capita
tax levy. the Baltimore per capita tax
levy was $15.53. Many OF the cities have
a much lower per capita tax levy. That
of Philadelphia was $14.30; New Orleans,

capita tax levy is the only uniform basis
of comparison between cities. The per
capita revenue may include in different
cities different items. as for example. spe-
cial assessments and other local charges
which are not comparable. It Is also ex-
planned that the comparison in bulletin

thousand population includes all county
taxes. and as to all other cities all school
taxes. and that state taxes In other cities
are either balanced by state privileges or
state grants not possible here Moreover.

A Simple Way to
Reduce Wrinkles

Remember that wrinkles and bagginess
OF cheek or chin are due to the muscular
tissue losing its strength and shrinking.
The skin is then too large in area to fit
such tissue smoothly. 1t wrinkles or says.
To remedy this condition. there's moth
ing SO effective, so quick acting, as a SIM
pie and harmless wash lotion easily made
at home. Get an ounce Of powdered sax
olite at your druggists, and a half pint
witch hazel, mix the two and battle your
face in the liquid. This at once tightens
tissue-which, OF course, smooths out the
lines and draws in the sagging skin. 1t
also stimulates circulation, bringing a
feeling Of freshness and snugness to a
tired face-Adv.
