II you become. bad tempered or
are dizzy or nauseated for no ac-
countable reason consult an ocul-
list. 1t may be eye strain. II there
is nothing organically wrong, your
eyes may be tired. If you are doing
close work. rest the eyes by clos
ing them or by looking casually at
distant object. When the photog-
rapher gets n distorted image in
looking through his camera he
changes the focus at once until the
object becomes clear.
The eye will do exactly the same
thing through it's muscles Of accom-
mediation. A change of work may
be the. cause of temporary eye
strain. but the normal eye can be
trained for specialization. 1t Is a well
known fact that tennis and baseball
players are advised not to play golf
for the reason that the eye In the first
instances is trained to follow a NOV
ing ball and it may become lazy"
when it has merely to rest on the
golf ball.
II the eye strain shows in local red
ness and Inflammation, it is easy
enough to consult the eye doctor; il
the symptoms are indirect in character
like those mentioned above, with the
additional ones of nervousness and
headache. the patient is at a loss to
know what to do. II any of the fore
going symptoms occur following spe-
cial eye work, see the oculist. Eye
strain may result not only from
CLOSE" work. but also from rapid
work, such as tennis, or watching a
machine. 1t may be temporary in
the person who changes from day to
night work. or from general to special
work. In that case the eye will soon
adapt itself to the new job. Mean
time get a boracic acid eye wash
from the nearest drug store and battle
the eyes night and morning.

1os,o4o Paid Income Tax in Missouri

|
Jefferson City, Dec. IA total OF
o5,056 individuals and o,9S4 corpora
tons made income tax returns to the
state for 1919, according to figures
ompiled in the office OF State Auditor
George f. Hackmann.
A total tax of $4,623,873.o4 was as
sessed against these returns, but it
was necessary to refund 40 per cent of
this amount. The assessments were
but the supreme court held the in
creased tax could not be applied to
incomes earned prior to August 7.
1919. The rate on the incomes up to
that period had to be placed at one
half of per cent.
The refunding 81 the money to
those who paid on the full rate for the
entire year has been going on for sew
eral months and is now about com
pleted according to John T. Wad-
dill -inceme-taN- supervisor in the Of
flee of the state auditor.
Kansas City paid about one-fourth
of the states income tax for last
year, St. Louis a half and the other
fourth was divided throughout the
state.
Kansas City's assessment for the
tax, with 22,S25 individuals and $500
corporations. was $I,I6S,I7o.73.- St.
Louis had 34,o3o individuals and g.
500 corporations which were assessed
$2,2o7, 226.34. These amounts are
both subject to the 30 per cent re-
fund.
The exemptions of the present state
income tax are $4,000 for married
persons and 5000 for each dependent
child. There are no exemptions for
CORPORATIONS.
1t is conceded that the coming
legislature will reduce the rate of tax
ations, but this. cannot apply to in
comes received during 1920.
