INCOME TAX FACTS
 ALL SHOULD KNOW
Of Interest to All Who Are Liable for
 This Tax

In making out his income-tax re- turn the taxpayer is required to show both gross and net income. Gross in come includes practically every dol lar the taxpayer received during the year 1919. In arriving at net in come, upon which the tax is assessed, he is allowed certain deductions, which will be explained later, plus the amount of his exemption.
 Incomes below $5,000 are exempt from surtax. The single man with no dependents and an income for 1919 of $2,O00 will Bay a tax of $40 instead of $60 as for 1918, and married man with an income of $2,500, and no dependents except his wife will pay $20 instead of $50.
 Surtax Rates -.--.-s-.
 The surtax rate is 1 per cent on the net income in excess of $5,000 and not over $6,0OO, and increases by steps of 1 per cent. for each $2,000 of net income up to and including IS per cent. on net income in excess of $98,000 and not over $100,000. F IOIu IUIS pOlIlL IllS IdJCS run edS lOl- lows: Fifty-two per cent. on net in- come over $100,000 and not over S150;O00, 56 per cent. on net income over $150,000 and not over $200,000, 60 per cent on net income over $200,- 900 and not over $300,000, 63 per cent on net income over $300,000 and not over $5OO,000, 64 per cent on net income over $500,000 and not over $1,000,O00 and 65 per cent on net income over $1,000,000. k. .H r How to Compute Taxes The following illustration will show the average taxpayer whose net in- come was more than S5,000 how to compute his tax:
 A single man had a net income for 1919 of $6,000. First he deducts his personal exemption of $1,000, leaving balance of s5,000. On the first $4,000 he pays at the normal rate of 4 per cent, $160. On the re- maining $1,000 he pays at the normal rate of per cent, $80. In addition he pays a surtax of s1Q, per cent on the amount of his net income be- tewen $5,00O and $6,0OO. His total tax is $250, as compared with S370 for 1918.
 Rate for Married Men
 A married man with two depend ents had net income for 1919 for $7,500.- From this he deducts his personal exemption of $2,000, plus $200 for each dependent. On the first $4,O0O of the balance of $5,100 he pays, at the normal rate of per cent. S160. On the remaining $1,110 he will pay, at the normal rate of 8 per cent, $88. On the amount of his income between $5,000 and $6,000 he pays surtax of 1 per cent, or $10. On the amount of his income be- tween $6,000 and $7,500 he pays a surtax of per cent. The total, nor mai and surtax, is $288 as compared with $412 for 1918. N
 Husband and wife whose combin- ed net income for 1919 equalled or exceeded S2,000 must file arreturn, either separate or joint as desired. A widow, woman living apart from her husband, or a maid must file d return if her net income equaled or exceeded $1,000. A minor whose in- come for 1919 was $1,000 or more must make a return. If the minors income was less than $1,000, it must be included in the return of the par ent.

CHINESE HOLD HILL SACRED
Huang Shan Created a Shrine More
Than Three Hundred Years Ago,
Is Tradition.

More than 300 years ago in the Ming
dhas and was called Thousand God pa
Men visited the Huang Shan in the
South Anhul hills. He was charmed
with the place and became infatuated
with the idea of making it a sacred
mountain. A journey to Peking and
an audience with the royal household
resulted in the appropriation of large
sums of money for developing this
fairyland of the gods. A brass pagoda
was prepared for the first temple. 1t
was decorated with 1000 little Bud
dhas and was called Thousand God ua-
CODA. The temple whose halls it
decked, was chrlStened the Purple
Sand temple and is now restored and
called the Merciful Light hall.
At that time, says the North China
Herald, hundreds of priests came to
the mountains, and there was a period
of Buddhist prosperity. Roads were
built to the tops of all the important
peaks, and at least one temple was
erected far above the line of perennial
springs.
