Income Tax to Show Increase.
Prom the examination thus far
made of the income tax returns for
1913, it is safe to say that the tax
this year will exceed that of last year
by considerable amount"
This is the statement made by Nils
P. Haugen, chairman of the state tax
commission.
''The counties from which returns
have been examined have been taken
1ndiscriminately from various parts
of the state" said Mr.. Haugen, "and
while some of the corporations show
slight decrease in income, by far
the greater number and especially the
large ones, show an increase.
The corporation income tax collect
ed last year was $2,792, 605.4O. This
amount was $407,8S9.10 larger than
the year before. OF the entire tax col
lected, 20 per cent is paid to the To-
cality where the corporation has it's
headquarters, 20 per cent goes to the
county and 10 per cent to the state.
The cost Of collection Is about fifty
thousand dollars, borne by the state.
This increase in corporation in
come tax denotes an increase In the
prosperity of Wisconsin," said Mr..
Haugen.

ERUPTION OVER cHILD's BODY

Route No. 8, Box g., Little Falls,
Minn.-"Our little boy was taken sick
with a fever and after the fever he
broke out with sore eruption all over
his body. We could get nothing to
help him. The sores were large and
red and bleeding. They started with
blisters as if he were burned and
when they broke they would bleed
and they itched SO that he could not
sleep for some time. We had him all
tied up with bandages and then we
had to soak them off every day.

DISAPPEARED
Coffee Ais Vanish Before Postum.

1t seems almost too good to be
true, the way headache, nervousness,
insomnia, and many other obscure
troubles vanish when coffee is dis
missed and Postum used as the regu-
lar table beverage.
The reason is clear. Coffee con-
tains a poisonous drug-caffeine-
which causes the trouble, but Postum
contains only the food elements in
choice hard wheat with a little mo-
lasses.
A Phila. man grew enthusiastic and
wrote as follows:
Until IS months ago l used coffee
regularly every day and suffered from
headache, bitter taste in my mouth.

The Guarantee.

William ]. Burns, the famous de-
tective, was talking in New York
about the recent dropping of his name
from the honorary list of police chiefs.
1T is easy" Mr.. Burns said, ito
read the significance of that action.
It's significance is evil. 1t relates to
certain graft exposures on my part.
Yes, it's significance is as evil as the
clothier's guarantee.
"a young fellow went to a clothier
to buy a pair of flannel pants.
1.-THE last pair got here shrunk,
he said. 7 was caught in the rain in
them and they shrunk something ter

George Bernard Shaw is one of the

to a woman, reproaching her for her
fight against the aigrette when she

"The lack of logic prevails every
