March |, 1913, if acquired prior there
to, cost of subsequent improvements,
if any, and depreciation subsequently
sustained.
No Speculative Profits.
In the case of property acquired prior
to March /, 1913, the return must show
how the fair value of that date is de-
termined In the case of real estate,
machinery. merchandise, or other prop
erty which does not have public mar
ket price, any relevant evidence may
be considered, such as the opinion of
experts, prices asked or offered for sim
liar property at that time, and other
facts. The value as of that date should
not include any prospective or specu
lative profits, but should represent the
price at which the property could have
been sold under conditions then exist
ing.
In determining the profit on the sale
of property the amount of deprecia
tion as well as the actual cost of such
property must be considered. For eX
ample, an owner sells in 1919 for $40,
600 a building which in 1915 cost him
$4,000
Figuring per cent annually as the
proper allowance for depreciation, the
total allowance is 81 ,440, which amount
must be included in his profit on the
transaction Because the depreciation
represents loss in prior years it may
not be deducted in ascertaining the
profits realized in the taxable year.

FATIGUE IS GREAT
BEAUTY DESTROYER

Thin. blooded people experience a
form of fatigue which robs them OF
strength to get about and deprlves
them of restful sleep. This fatigue Is
not to be confused with the healthy
reaction which follows day of work
and is relieved by sound slumber
The fatigue which accompanies an
anemic or thin blooded condition robs
women of beauty, for it causes their
color to fade and leaves the face bag
gard and drawn. In addition TO the
feeling of exhaustion there is generally
nervousness, headache, stomach trouble
and dizziness.
These systems indicate the need OF
the tonic that Mrs. Eva NJ. Carter, OF

the property is bettered or improved
as by the erection of a building, the
expense of such improvement may be
added 10 the cost and deducted by the
owner in determining the amount of
his profit. The above items, if deducted
from gross income when the expendi-
ture was made, cannot later be consid-
cred in arriving at the profit, or, in 9th
err words, cannot be included as a bust

cost of property.
Selling Price.
The selling price of property includes
promissory notes, securities, or any
thing accepted as cash and the profit
must be included as income when re-
ceived Installment sales involving
relatively small initial payment and
deferred payments are governed by
special treasury regulations. The profit
upon an instsllment sale is appOrtioned
10 each installment and is only report
ed for taxation as collected Except
where these special regulations for in
stallments sales apply, notes, mort
cages and other deferred payments
must be considered as if the entire
price was paid in cash. In case any
notes should be worthless, or a deferred
payment cannot be collected when due,
the taxpayer, after eXhausting every
reasonable means for collection, may
charge the amount off as bad debt in
subsequent year The sale of the
property is regarded as a closed trans
action and the collection Of the notes
as a new item.
The return must show the kind of
property on which the profit was real
