AMERICAS GROWING INCOMES

The effect of the great prosperity
Of America on the individual in
comes of persons and corporations
is strikingly shown in the figures of
income tax receipts for the fiscal
year Of 1916, made public in the lat
ter part OF November by the Com
missioner of Internal Revenue.
There is a jump from 1915 collec-
lions from individuals OF no less
than $27.0O0,OOO. in round figures,
over the s41.OOO,OO0 received in the
earlier year. An even greater rate
Of increase is given In the payments
, from corporations which last year
contributed $57.OOO.OOO toward the
national expenses as compared with
$39. 100000 in 1915. Three humid
red and thirty-six thousand six humid
red and fifty-two persons paid an
income tax last year. and more than
one-third Of these were assessed on
net incomes of between $1,000 and
$4,000 a year. Net incomes OF
100000 or more were reported

nine individuals paid tax on incomes
from 100000 to $1,OOO,O0O. and

THE HARD-WORKING NEIGHBOR
By G., w, futile,

True, the Woodworking neighbor
may not always have time for all
the little amenities and courtesies
of life, but he is man whom we
treat with great respect. He is the
man who does his level best to make
two blades of grass grow where on
ly one fourished beforehand per-
chance a sickly one at that.
He is UP and at 1t while we are
taking our last forty winks in the
morning; in fact. he stretches the
day at both ends, and prevails over
both the morning and the evening.
Sometimes his absorption in his
work is SO great that he misses the
glory Of the sunset, or his ears are
closed to the music of sweet song
sters Of his fields. or the perfume
Of the blossoms and the glory of
the springtime fail to awaken re-
Spouse within.
Have you notice that an extremely
hard-working man seldom forms
many bad habits? II he has them
the chances are that they came to
birth in some idle days Of the long
ago before he had acquired the pre-
sent habit OF overtime industry.
The Woodworking neighbor needs
warning sometimes; he builds so
many additions on the day that his
neighbors are really puzzled as to
where his day ends and his night
begins. Some of us are old-fashion-
ed enough to think the Lord made
the day for work and the night for
rest, but he mixes the two as If he
hoped they might amalgamate en-
tirely in time.
Many virtues cluster about the
Woodworking neighbor: he pays his
debts; he heeds the Biblical injunc.
ton to provide things honest in the
sight of all men; he almost invari.
ably makes kind neighbor; he has
neither time nor disposition to find
fault with his neighbors; he usual.
ly has a happy home. where there
are creature comforts to enjoy and
loving voices to greet him in the
cleaning, with sweet rest when the
labor Of the day is at last ended
and the dreamless sleep that heart
ems him for the tasks Of another
day.
The hard-working neighbor might
lengthen his days by an occasional
day spent in fishing or in recreation
Of some kind with his family. AZ
the bow that is always bcnt loses
its residence at last. so the man who
never let's up loses the spring from
his footsteps and the vigor from his
movements, and ages prcmaturely
