DEALERS FAIL

Negligence I'm Filling Out Blanks
Attributed to Mfsunderstand-
ing Of Tobacco Forms.
CHARGING IN EXCESS OF TAX
No Penalty Attached for Increase
Of Price Of Stock Above
Assessment Mark.

Four-nfths of the cigar, cfgaret
and tobacco dealers in Rock Island
nave not begun taking inventory OF
their stock in order TO estimate the
amount of tax they viii have to
pay. Earl Rudell, an authority on
tobacco taxes, is busy visiting the
dealers to ascertain how many have
made an attempt to I'LL the blanks.
Tho main reason" stated J. II.
Hanson, deputy internal revenue
collector, way retailers who han
die the tobacco line, have not filled
out the blanks, is that they do not
understand the tax law. There is
but one thing that they can do and
shat is to apply at my office in the
federal building and l VIII give
them information On the interpre-
tation of the law"
Inventory of stock on hand be-
fore Feb. rs is to be taken and esti-
mates held 25 days until govern
ment men call for them. II in that
line calls for the forms have not
been made, dealers should take
them to the federal building. Mr..
Rudell has recommended that pen
alties from SO to 500, according to
the size OF the store, be levied on
dealers who fail TO fill the forms.
Increase Profits.
Regarding the excess in price on
cigars and cigarets, Mr.. Hanson
stated that the dealers are increas-
ing their profits. According to the
law an increase of about 2 cents
should be made on all 10 cent Gig
ars. Instead local retailers are
charging the consumer Is cents.
The extra cents is added to his
profit There should be no increase
on cent cigar.
There is, however, no penalty at
Stached for charging prices in ex-
csss of the tax on goods 1t prob
ably will take one month before
prices throughout the city will be
uniform It is expected that by
that time forms will be completed
and that dealers will agree on a
standard price for their stock.

the picture. 1t is equal to all require

pretty collar Of beaver plush and but
tons and pocket flaps to match. And
the same thing is true of the hat Of
castor clipped beaver, worn with it.
Serge, tricotine or any good wool
material is used for dresses like that
at the right Of the picture. 1t has 8
plated skirt Joined to body that
opens at the left front, and fastens
with loops over round buttons covered
with the cloth. A soft belt of the ma
terial has diagonal Sits in it at the
front that open into small. square
pockets suspended from the under side.
These pockets are bound with fancy
silk braid, and the same braid appears
as a band on the sleeves and in a
neck decoration. Altogether this little
dress bespeaks careful attention on
the part of an expert designer and
the very clever management Of the
pockets is enough to make any small
girl determine to wear it every day

"Iike bees about the honeysuckle,
women have begun to swarm about the
ribbon counters in the big stores,
where there are SO many beautiful
dress accessories on display. Christ
mas time is harvest time for the rib
bon department and already the stores
are showing enticing articles made OF
ribbons in order to point the way to
using them. There are whole fiocks Of
gay ribbon hair bows for the younger
generation, and there are dance caps
and breakfast caps for young and old,
corsage flowers and bouquets, innumer-
able bags for all sorts of purposes and
lovely girdles and sashes. Vestees and
hat crowns suggest uses for the rich
est brocaded ribbons and many shop
ping bags are made of these.
Ribbons for lingerie have story of
their own which it is important to
know at Christmas time as they fur
nish the most acceptable and least
costly of ribbon gifts. And there are
the pretty neckwear fancies and the
house-furnishing pieces, all meriting
attention of the Christmas shopper.
But it is not possible to describe all
of these ribbon articles at one time. In
the group of dress accessories shown
here there appear three corsage orna-
ments, dance cap and party bag,
any one of them gift that any wom-
an will enjoy. OF the corsage orna-
ments one is rose made of dark red
satin ribbon; the other rose is of vel
vet ribbon in rose pink and the small
cluster of little roses in several light
colors forms little bouquet that will
find a place for itself in many toilettes.

The farmer who possesses an auto
