HOW TO FIGURE INCOME TAX.

Take the first three figures of your automobile and add to it the size of your shoes; then subtract from it the buttons on your last summers suit.
 Divide this by the size of your col lar; add this to the amount of your unpaid taxes and laundry bills, and then divide this by 30 per cent of your telephone number.
 Next add the total weight of your entire family plus the pumber of peo- pie who had the "flu" in your coun- ty last year; divide by all the speeches on the increase in pay for shipyard employees that have been made, and this will constitute your income tax.
 This reliable information has been found to be the only system there is to correctly figure out your income tax. If you do not find it to be cor rect the first g times you have fig ured it out, try it 13 more.-Ex. -i
