THAT INCOME TAX.
Here He Comes-The Man With the
 Hand Out.

Hartford, Jan. 19.-The Income the notice given today by the Con- necticut State Council of Defense, which is cooperating with internal revenue collector for early returns on the Federal Income Tax at the re- quest of the Council of National De- fense.
 Failure to report to the internal revenue collector is punishable by fine of from $2O to $1,000 and inn prisonment.
 Unmarried persons, not the head of families, who made S1.000 or more last year, and married persons living with wife or husband, who made $2,- 900 or more last year, are required to pay an income tax.
 Income tax returns must be made out on forms furnished by the gov- ernment. Because a good many peo- pie who must pay an income tax do not understand the law and therefore will not know how to make out their returns, the government is sending experts to every county to show them how to do it.
 Those who are not sure wheth CT they are subject to the tax are ad- vised to ask about it and make sure.
 The smaller the amount the gov .ernment raises by taxation the larger the amount that will have to be raised in bond issues so everyone is urged to do his or her patriotic duty and turn in an income tax sheet with out delay.
 The government does not have to find the man or woman who must pay the tax. The new law makes the per son who should pay the tax liable to fine or imprisonment for failure to voluntarily make a return to the gov- ernment

HURLEY ORDERS SPEED.
Visits Shipyard and Finds Work Prac-
 tically at Standsti1l.

New York, Jan. 19.-Edward N. Hurley. chairman of the United States shipping board, and Charles Piez, general manager of the Emergency Fleet Corporation, yesterday visited three of the Newark shipbuilding plants to find out what effect the order of Fuel Administrator Garfield would have in the supply of steel there and also to try to aid the super intendents of one of the yards in de- vising plans for getting 1000 more cars of materials that have delayed the work on one of the ships since the keel was laid a month ago.
 A few minutes after MT. Hurley had gone into the yard of the Submarine Boat Corporation, where the keel of the first standardized steel ship was laid on Dec. 20, he interrupted his in- spection of the yards to send a tele- gram to William G. McAdoo, direc- tor general of the railroads, asking him to redouble his efforts to get the
 1000 cars of steel parts from the con- gested railroads. The text of the
 telegram was not given out, but it was learned that MT. Hurley was
 merely emphasizing the request for speedy delivery that had been made 1 repeatedly by the officials of the Sub
 marine Corporation and by members of the shipping board.
 Of the 1000 cars of steel tied up on railroads, some of them under 1 orders for shipment before any other | kind of freight except fuel and food, ] a large number have been on the rail 1 roads since November, more than a | month before the keel of the first 1 ship was laid. No additional work ] on the ship can be done until the 1 steel is received by the yards. and ] about 5000 workers in the yards may 1 be laid off when other work has been 1 completed.

estabIishm ents which do not make cakes make no profit when selling cakes under the present regulations, which prohibit an increase on the manufa cturers price.
 "In consideration of the expenses incurred the communes attached to the Bread Card union have resolved to allow non-makers of cakes, when sell ing cake to be consumed on the prem ises in addition to beverages, to make an addition of one-third of the price paid for cake when sold across the counter. The fact must however, be announced by notices in their estab- lishments. This does not apply to makers, who will continue to sell their cake at the same price, even with ac- companying beverages

The vossische zeitung (Sept 22) reports @ meeting of the German so- ciety for Children's Therapeutics in the lecture room of the children's clinic of Leipzig university, at which Prof. Schlossmann gave a lecture on children's diseases and the war.
 He mentioned the decrease in the birth rate and said that, for instance. in the Dusseldorf district the num- Der of births had decreased from 10O,- 900 in 1914 to 60,000 in 1916 Also in the Rhine province a great decline had to be reckoned with. It is re- ported from all parts of Germany that the newborn children are in very good condition in spite of the small food rations available for the moth CTS. The mortality of infants is re- latively and absolutely favorable, a consequence of the imperial grants to nursing mothers which have encour- aged the natural feeding of infants and, further. of the reduction of the overlooking of inants which was the cause of so many deaths in peace time Tickets and eczema have near ly disappeared, and there are fewer . congentiaI syphilis. The reports of medical men examining school re- cruits are favorable. but after the tenth year of age a reduction in the increase in weight is noticed Infec- tous diseases have not increased in consequence of the prolonged war, nor have they assumed a malicious character. Many infections were caused by newly founded creches and children's homes, which were not fur nlshed or managed in a hygienic manner. The malignancy of infectious cases accepted at children's hospitals is due to the fact that medical as sistance is called in too late. In the case of phthisis it is different; this disease has increased in numbers and gravity even in well-to-do circles. The speaker regarded as the causes for this the scarcity of fat, the decrease in cleanliness owing to the scarcity of soap, and the bad housing condi- tions.
 The Cure of Trembling Of Disabled
 Soldiers.
 The orrespondenzblatt der Gener- alkomission der GewerkschafteD Deutschlands of September 1 says:
 "The nervous affection among sol- diers, which causes a. constant tren1- bling of the whole or part of the body. seems much worse to the onlookers than to the actual sufferers, and on this account has often made it very difficult for the latter to obtain en- ployment, especially as the malady was supposed to be incurable. As early as year ago, however, Sanitats- rat pr. Ernst Beyer. chief physician of the nerve hospital at Roderbirken, near Leichingen, declared that this trembling could be cured. The re- suits obtained at the time were not very satisfactory, but meanwhile it has been found possible to remove trembling and other nervous twitch- ings with a rapidity and a certainty formerly considered impossible. D1 Beyer reported lately that mary nun dred of those affected -u this way had been cured of IneIr trouble-over 300 so far in the ynstitution conducted by him, where the new process has been in use si4--e November IT, 1916. "By the app-.ation of a gentle elec- tric current, wrrc.. causes no pain, or even apart from pAat, by the exercise, according to certain instructions of the muscles affected, good results have often been obtaised in a few

CROWDS VISIT WEIRD
DEEP SEA MYSTERY
Will BE Seen BY At Least 10000
People While Here.

Not in recent years perhaps has
anything aroused such widespread
interest and discussion among all
classes of people in New Orleans as
has this unique exhibit UndOubt-
eddy it has attracted more attention
than anything of the kind which has
ever come here before.
Many thousands of visitors have
crowded the yacht every day since it
has been here and many have been
so profoundly impressed and have
become so intensely interested with
what they have seen that they have
gone away and have urged their
friends not to miss the opportunity
to see the greatest geological wonder
of all times.
On account of the wonderful
amount of interest shown it is now
conservatively estimated that the
exhibition will be seen by at least
twenty thousand people during the
next few days. 1t IS now believed,
in fact. that New Orleans will almost
equal Miami's record, where the fish
has been seen by at least forty
thousand people, including thous-
ands of tourists.
Amang the thousands who have
already seen the exhibit were a num-
Der from nearby towns. some of
whom came from a distance of fifty
and sixty miles away. Already the
people of Baton Rouge are begin
ming TO make inquiries and have
urgently requested Captain Thomp-
son to include that city in his It'll
nerary.
Although there are several lectur-
ers aboard Captain Thompson's
yacht who explain the many facts
of interest regarding the fish. Cap
tain Thompson himself seems to be
the center of attraction and he is
called upon to answer a great many
curious questions.
1T is surprising" said the cap
tain, how many people seem to be
interested in the story of Jonah and
the possibility of there being a fish
big enough to have swallowed him.
Everywhere l go people ask me about
that the very first thing"
There are two or three species of
"hdIC " NC lOuHu III the heulIeT-
ranean," he continued, but the
great fish that swallowed the prophet
cannot properly be identified with
any of them. Only the sperm whale
has a throat large enough to admit
the body of man, yet the natural
food of the whale species consists of
small animals, such as medusae and
crustacae that abound in all semi
tropical waters.
Before | caught this monster off
the Florida keys. the only fish
known to naturalists capable of swal-
lowing a man would be a large speci-
men of the white shark, which
sometimes attains the length of thirty
feet. 1t is said that the whole body
of man clad in armor has ben found
in the stomach of a white shark
Captain King, in his survey of Aus
tralia, says that he caught one that
could have swallowed a man with
the greatest ease. There is also the
well authenticated case of a shark
OF this species, having swallowed a
horse
