INCOME TAXES TO
DROP ONE THIRD

That income taxes for 1920 will come
down third from this years schsd-
ule was the prediction made by JOIN
d. Murphy, chief revenue agent Cf
the Bureau of Internal Revenue, In
an address before the Washington
Association of Credit Men at the
Commercial Club last night.
This $4,000, ,OOO 900 is the largest
amount ever raised bv taxes in tHo
history Of the world" he said, and
is made necessary by our part in tie
war. But business men generally are
glad to do their share and seem II
say not How little can l pay" but
How much"
The 1919 schedule supersedes all
other income taxes and calls for L
normal tax Of 6 per cent on incOmts
up TO $4,000 above the exempted
amount. For the next $4,000 1t is 12
per cent, and is thus graduated until
a person with high income pays 81
per cent of it to the Government.
The only exemptions are on inter
est from municipal, State and Liberty
bonds; $1,000 for a single person.
$4,000 for a married man, and $2Uo
for each child under eighteen or
other dependent, and $500 for any
one in the military or naval service.

Editorial

1t isn't often that a store has
the honor of welcoming the
returning heroes from three
victorious wars.
We will have had that honor
with the setting of the sun
tomorrow night.
The civil war ended soon after
this store was founded, and
many veterans of that strug-
gle came to US for employ
ment. A few are still with
US, and we arc proud of them.
The Spanish-American war
took many of our employees,
and it was our pleasure to
welcome them home.
Tomorrow the men who made
the world a safe place in
which to live will march
down the avenue and we'll
cheer them until we're so
hoarse we can't talk. We're
proud that some of them arc
members of our store family.
And they know that their
places are ready for them
whenever they wish to come
back.

Beauty Tips for School Girls

The young girls who are going away
o school-and the young girls who are
;oing TO hunt and MI their FIRST job
IRE looking about for ways 10 make
themselves prettler-and more attrac-
i've.
The first essential OF all beauty Is
neatness-eXquisite neatness and clean
mess OF person and clothes.
The daily bath Is absolutely neces-
sary TO the girl who longs for a clear,
fresh complexion which needs no cos
netics.
Young girls have little need for the
massage creams Of older women, but
even girls need a good cleansing cream
TO take out dust, and to warn away
chaps
Girls with oily skin should use daily,
on bits Of absorbent cotton the follow
ing lotion: i-2 ounces Of rose water,
i-2 ounce Of alcohol. and i-2 dram Of
boric acid
A saturated solution OF boric. acid
used night and morning with an eye
cup. will keep the eyes bright and
rested and the lids in healthy condition.
a very little vaseline rubbed into lashes
and brows will make them grow.
The neat, well-groomed school or
business girl viii be sure that hooks.
eyes, buttons and snappers are always
In place on her belts and blouses and
plackets so that her clothes never cape
OF sag unbecOmingly.
Shoes. too. well polished. and with
straight heels and neat laces, mark. the
well-groomed girl. and so do the white
shoes kept absolutely clean. Shoe trees
'or each pair owned is an excellent in
gestment. They cost little, and save
lime and money keeping the shoes in
good condition.
No business girl should attempt TO
wear wash shirtwaist more than one
day-unless she is EXTREMITY neat
and careful about her clothes Looking
capable and prosperous invites real
prosperity and the world respects the
person who respects herself enough to
be clean and neat.
Remember 10 use one n the many
toilet preparations designed 20 prevent
excessive persDiraiion and its Odors Use
little perfume. Perfect cleanliness is
the sweetest fragrance
Keep the hair clean and shining by
frequent shampoos and nightly brush
