Copper Tax Returns.

II was reported yesterday that the
Government had started. or at least was
contemplating. beginning suits against
several leading copper companies for
additional taxes for 1917. According to
information received the Governments
revenue bureau takes the position that
writeoffs for depreciation. amortization,
&c. were entirely too large, and that an
effort Is to be made in the courts TO have
them set aside. The cases probably will
be tests rs TO how far the Government g

which companies shall allow for. these

Mexico City.-Investigations by the
government to find out who built the
great pyramids at San Juan Teotihua-
can, 27 miles from Mexico City. have
brought to light two great granite
heads Of the ancient Mexican god Of
the air, Quetzalcoatl.
These heads are almost perfect spec
linens, bearing all the symbolic mark
ings.
The long disputed point as to who
erected the pyramids is, as yet, I'M
solved. These huge mounds. M to
the sun and the other to the moon, the
former being 761 by 721 feet at the
base and 216 feet high, are generally
attributed to a tribe that preceded the
Toitecs, probably dating from about

as joys, and making new plans.
\ In Bentsville we don't have such
frantic times deciding whether we

and gratitude are enough to marry

We feel more than we think. Yet
we don't go wrong so very often.
You are right In saying these prob
lens are absolutely individual. What

When I say ''your kind of people" I
mean people in whom the life of big
cities has dulled the taste for simple,
plain, homely things.
