If YOU have card recipe cabinet you know
how much more comfortable it is to pull out
of the box the one card containing the one
recipe you need. and keep it pinned up before
you while you prepare the dish-lnstead oil

ing il open at the right page, and finally get
confused in measuring the ingredients because
three similar recipes are on the same page!
In up-to-date Offices one finds no longer the
huge ledger which the worn and weary DOCK
keener has to drag about lsboriously, but a
card cabinet. When he wants to make an
entry he handles only the one card he needs,
instead of having to handle an entire oook'

WHAT A BUDGET SYSTEM OUGHT TO BE
Now, in preparing a system of household
account keeping for Tribune readers IL was
necessary to do several things;
First-Make it easy to understand, so that
orv bousekeeper, if necessary, can prepare one
for herself.
second-Make it simple and easy to keep,
because unless it is convenient and compact no
one can take pleasure in it; even the strongest
will falter in her account keeping resolution,
and fall by the wayside long before the year is
over. ...---.-..--..-. .4..-
Third-Arrange it 50 that it tells the house
wife quickly where her money goes-on what
mart of the household she is too lavish; wnerc
she is departing from the fine budget plan tna'
she formulated at the beginning of the year
Is she spending 500 on food when her allow
,rco saws that only $50 month should be
spent? Why?
KEEPING A CHECK ON EACH ITEM
7, the butcher, the baker or the milkman
getting more than a just share! II one
months expenses for vegetables and fruit' OF
for light and heat, or for milk and eggs, are
unreasonably higher than the month before
something is wrong There may be an over
charge or a carelessness in the kitchen that
can be remedled.
One housekeeper found, to her amazsment'
Chat her expense for dairy products one week
was fully one-third larger than the previous
week. She was curious and sensible enough 70
follow the clew, and discovered that new
maid was ordering and using highest priced
fable butter for all cooking purposes.
She might not have discovered 1t for several
months more if the rigorous eye of her account
system had not brought it quickly before her.
HOW THE SYSTEM is CLASSIFIED
It is because of this simplicity and ready
accessibility that the Tribune Institute Budget
system is in the form Of card catalogue. The
box containing this is furnished with SIX guide
or tab cards, upon which are printed the main
divisions of the Budget: Food, Shelter, Cloth
ing, Operating Expenses, Advancement, SaV-
ings. Arranged in order within the divisions
indicated by these guide cards are two hun
dred plain catalogue cards, ruled and divided
into columns, so that each one may record the
expenditures made during one month for the

HOW SHALL I BEGIN TO KEEP AZ
COUNTS?

good part Of the housewives fear Of an
account system proceeds from its name. oh,
dearl she's just sure she'll never be able to
understand how to keep those ruled columns
neatly filled in so that she can-what do you
call it?-oh, yes, balance her accountsl
It is true that some of the exceedingly de-
tailed account systems are too involved for the
average homemaker, unframed in business,
even though accurate attention to them would
give her a splendid grip on her expenditures.
Also, most of the systems are in the shape
Of account books. The daily handling of
book-thumbing perhaps daily over the same
one page-makes it untidy and unattractive,
and by and by Madame Housekeeper dislikes to
touch it at all. These account books, like the

THE YEARS EXPENDITURES AT A
GLANCE

Finally comes the card containing the sum-
mary for the year. This is cross ruled in
twelve lines, one for each month in the year,
and is divided by the ledger ruling into six
columns, exclusive of Months and Totals"
At the head of each of these is printed one Of
the main divisions of the budget. The total
expenditure each month for food, shelter, cloth
ing. operating expenses, advancement and saw
ings is entered on the line set aside for that
month and in the column bearing the proper
division heading At the foot appears the
total expenditure for the year.
This gives, upon one small card, not only the
total cutgo for the year, but the exact amount
spent for the items under each division of the
budget.
We have printed the headings only upon the
guide cards and this general summary, leaving
the others to be written by the housekeeper.
This allows for any extension or alteration
that may be considered necessary.
The complete system of 207 ruled and
printed cards, in fibre box, may be had post
paid for $l.35, upon application to the Tribune

WR Young housekeeper after
H&& marketing trip. ~ try to be
economical now that prices are so high but
I'm really not extravagant in anything so
where on earth can begin to save"
And there's the rub. The more regularly you
buv. the more accustomed you are TO spend
;ne, fixed. and what seem to be absolutely nee
essarv. sums for the miscellaneous supplies for
the household, the more difficult is it to see
where to eliminate and decrease expenses.
That is what household account system is
for-to act as a mechanical eye for you, 80 10
speak-to show you how you can save money
ON YOUR regular expenditures In a previous
,rtcle was shown how making budget
stretches the buying pot0er Of your income
Rut q budget, remember, is, after all, just a
,,nn-iust New Years resolution. OF course
like other New Years resolutions, it takes will
power to enforce.
A SYSTEM THAT rs EASILY KEPT
Rut mike other annual resolutions, you
have a fine assistant to help you carry out your
budget resolve. The guide, support and ASSIST
ant that will help you live within your planned
division of expenses and will help you save is a
good system of household account keeping
Now. it is said very often that the average
bomemaker does not like to keep accounts, be-
cause she does not realize, as the business man
does. how absolutely necessary 1t is TO keep
track of what you spend and study over such
records in order to spend wisely.
Alec the very word System" is bugbear
and formidable to so many womenl
"What! A business system is a home l
DON'T want i'll" the young housekeeper often
declares, believing that she will rob home OF
some Of its sentiment if she manages 1t sys'
tematically.
But once let her discover for herself that
svsts-r is not burden, but help; not heart
less business ogre, but the best friend OF the
housekeeper in making her family more com
fortable-and she won't be happy unsess9shs

items that come under each heading on the
cards.
These items have been classified so that they
come under fifteen headings. Each one OF
these fifteen headings is TO be entered on
twelve cards ono for each month IN the year.
About twenty extra cards are provided, IN case
of extra items or Of extra expenditure IN any
one direction. This gives hexblity to the sys-
TEN, besides providing extra cards to take the
place of any that may have to be destroyed
because Of errors.
The headings and dates on these plain cards
are to be written in by the housekeeper, VINO
NAV wish to vary the items to TIT her lndl-
vidual needs Take, for example, the division
headed Food" The edger-ruled cards in the
division are separated into five groups OF
twelve each, one for each month in the year
The headings we have suggested, because they
seem to cover the ground, are: l, Dairy; 2,
Fruits and Vegetables; g, Groceries; q, Meat
and Fish; 5, Meals Outside.
GROUPING is GREATLY SIMPLIFIED
Under tho main division, shelter" are two
groups Of cards, one to be headed Rent, Rail
road and Carfare, and the other Taxes, Fire
and Burglar Insurance. Under Clothing" we
have provided but one group of twelve monthly
cards, each one headed Fabrics, Dressmaker,
Tailor, etc. A second or third group might
easily be provided from the blank cards in the
box to suit the individual requirements of the
housekeeper.
Under Operating Expenses" we have in
cluded three groups of cards. One would be
headed Fuel, Light, Ice, Telephone; the second.
Furniture and Repairs; the third Service and
Laundry. Under Advancement" are also
three groups, the first headed Education,
Church, Charity the second, Physician and
Medicine; the third, Luxuries, Gifts, Vaca-
tions.
The sixth and last group comes under the
division entitled Savings" In this are only
the twelve cards, one for each month in the
year, and each one headed Lodge, Life Insur
snce, Investment, Bank Account.

EXCESS PROFITS TAX
WILL Be PERMANENT

ATLANTA, Ga. Nov. 15.-Belief that
it IS exceedingly probable that an ex-
cess profits tax, now imposed as a
war measure, will continue as a per-
Eanent part of the American tax sys
TEN was expressed by Professor IT. s.
Adams, of Yale University, in an ad-
dress he delivered here today before
the National Tax Associatin's conven-
ton. This taxation of excess profits
would be, in Prof Adams opinion
an expression of the principle that the
state and the community stand as
silent partners in every business enter
prise. Prof Adams is now serving as
special advisor on taxation to the
treasury department
He strongly advocated the taxing of
all business units on their net in
come, the wisdom of which course has
been for many years the subject Of
considerable difference of opinion by
tax authorities and others interested in
scientific taXations methods. Professor
Adams admitted that opponents Of
this method of taxation were able to
present strong arguments in support
of their position which undoubtedly
were worthy of full consideration but
the fact remains, as he said that we
shall never have even an approximate
the necessity for separate business
taxation is recognized and imposts
laid which are consciously designed
to express the fiscal obligations of
business as SUCH"
According to Prof. Adams, the justi-
fication for this class of taxes is that
a large part of the cost of government
is traceable to the activities of bust
ness and to the protection which bust
ness as. such enjoys. 1t was Prof
Adams idea that this fiscal obliga-
ton of business is not adequately met
by the present property tax nor by a
mere personal income tax on the own
ers of the business.
! In discussing the measure of this
tax which Prof. Adams urged should be
imposed on all business concerns, he
pointed out that there is no perfect
measure of any tax but said that per-
sonally he believed the most satisfac-
tory measure would be according to
net income from the business. He
suggested, however, that the rate
! should be graduated somewhat along
the excess-profits tax which he said
as noE spread to fourteen or fifteen
countries and is yielding handsome
revenues in most Of them
