THOSE MARRIED LAST OF YEAR
 MUST PAY TAX

Brtdegrooms are worrying as to how they shall figure their Income Tax. A constant stream of inquiries from the newlyweds is reaching the Inter nal Revenue officials. In many of these cases both the bride and groom were employed up to the wedding date and the principal point on which ad- vice is asked is as to whether the brides income must be shown on the groon's return.
 The answer as given by the Internal Revenue men is that all of the earn ings and other income of both the bride and the groom for the year 1919 must be considered, even if it was all spent on trosseau, diamonds, wedding trips and bonbons. The fact that they were married on or before December S1 joins them for the whole year, so far as Income Tax is con cerned.
 A bride of 1919 is in duty bound to figure up her income and add it to hubby's earnings for 1919 to determine e whether an Income Tax return is re- quired. If the total was $2,000 ol' more, a return must be made; in which case both bride and groom may file separate returns, or must file a joint return. The latter method is preferred by the collectors, unless the aggregate net income of both husband and wife is $5 eco or over.
 And they all want to know whether although married only part of the year 1919, they are entitled to claim full exemption as a married couple. The answer is yes; they are allowed $2, 900, plus $2O0 for each dependent who is under Is or who, through age, defect, etc., is incapable of self-sup- port. This exemption may be split in any proportions on the separate returns of husband and wife, if they file that way.
 And remember that March 15 is the final date for filing returns and paying Income Taxes" is the warn ing that the Revenue men add to the above advice.

preserved skeletons. bones and teeth.
 On account of the pecuharities of their bony skeletons these great beasts allied to the lizards and crocodiles of today, are classed as a special order of reptiles called Dinosauria- This order is again divided into many groups, according to the structure of the limbs.
 The first of these Dinosauria to be discovered and described Cby their bones and teeth) were found by Dr. Manten in the rocks quarried in Til lbury Forest, in Sussex, in the earlier part of the last century. Such were the iguanodon Ca kangaroo shaped herbivor seventeen feet high as it stood. the megalosaurusu Ca carnivor ! twice as big as a tiger), and others described by Mantell and Owen. l Now complete skeletons of many lDinosaurs have been found in var- ous parts of the world, in strata l deposited before the chalk; but the most remarkable kinds, and many per feet specimens have been obtained in North America and described by Marsh, while others have since been made known by Osborne
 | Actually the largest and most per fectly preserved of these is the DipIo- docus--a creature with a relatively very small head two feet long, a mar
 row neck twenty-one feet long, body thirteen and one-ha1f feet long and 1izardlike tail forty-seven feet long
 giving a total length of eighty-three feet.
 The thigh bone of this creature is
 five feet in length. The thigh bone of
 a similar reptile has been also found in the United States measuring a foot
 more in length, and called AtIanto-
 saurus. The upper arm bone is three
 feet two inches in length.
 If the bones are put together Gas is done with the cast presented to the Natural History Museum by Andrew ICarnegie) so as to raise the body on Ithe vertically set limbs,

LUXURY TAX IS DEDUCTIBLE ON
 CROSS INCOME
Cent Taxes Amount to Big Sum During
 Year

All persons who have not kept an accurate account of the luxury taxes paid during the year, and this equals approximately 100 per cent of the inhabitants of the United States, are privileged to make an estimate of such expenditure and list it among deductions in making an income tax wards today.
 There can be no percentage a1- 1owance for such a deduction" the collector stated. Every man must make his own estimate. His word is as good as the governments. As a matter of fact, he should be able to produce bills showing where he has paid the luxury tax; but of course it is realized that in most cases this will be impossible. And when man makes an affidavit as to his income tax return, the govern ment presumes that his statement is correct and that he is not attempting to tell an untruth.''
 This luxury tax deduction is prov ing one of the most perp1exing phases of the problem to those who are attempting to solve the intrica- cies of the income tax return. It is entirely new angle on the income
 
 stood in the majority of instances means an appreciable saving.
 The person who has not been fully aware of the provisions of the law which permit the deduction of all luxury taxes paid from the gross in- come, has in most instances neg Iected to make note of the many minor payments of luxury taxes such as those on theatre tickets soft drinks, and others in which no bill is submitted.
 Even those who were aware of the laws provisions have been neglect full and it is for the benefit of all that the government in permitting the estimate rather than demanding such taxes paid.
 Luxury taxes, which the income tax payer is entitled to deduct, in clude the following:
 Ten per cent. of the price of al theatre, opera and otFer amufpe- ment tickets; 15 per cent of the price of cabaret, roof garden o1 similar entertainment; 10 per cent of all dues and membership fees ot social, athletic or sporting club or ganizations, when such fees ars more than s10 per year; 5 per cent of the price of motor vehicles ant accessories; per cent. of the price of pianos, organs (except pipt organs), photographs, or similar musical instruments or phonograpf records; 10 per cent. of the price o. all sporting equipment; 3 per cent | of chewing gum; 10 per cent.

animals belong to the group of warm -blooded, hair-covered Asuck lerS'' known as the mammals. These biggest land animals are the elephant and it is probable that the largest elephants measure twelve feet in height at the shoulder and are near ly as big as any of the extinct kinds, such as mammoths and Inastodons, which we know by bones, teeth and complete skeletons dug out of the sands and clays deposited during the later tertiary period.
 There are many remarkable extinct mammals known to US by their skel- etons, some quite peculiar and unlike living mammals in their hornss and teeth and general shape. But none are as big as. a big elephant.
 To find extinct animals approaching or surpassing the elephants in size we have to go back further in time to the period when the white chalk cliffs of England were being deposited as a, sediment in deep ~"ean.
 On the land surface then and for a long lapse of ages previously, there were many and various kinds of huge quadrupeds. The mammals of that time were small, obscure creatures the day of fbig mammals can" later. These big animals of the pre-chalk ages were reptiles, coldJblooded, ha1r- less, often scale-covered animals like our lizards and crocodfIes, but many of them far larger and having the size and build some of rhinoceroses some of huge grazing animals, some like enormous tigers twice the length of those now living, and others quite peculiar, herbivorous brutes walking on their hind legs like kangaroos.
 They were as varied aTS& abundant as the mammals of today. Many kinds quietly browsed in large herds and were the victims of others, swift and powerful, armed with great claws and fangs, who hunted them and fed on their flesh. All are known by we'll

 Five per cent is the tax on candy, photographic films or plates, tl,ernos bottles or similar containers. and portable electric fans. The tax on dirk knives, daggers, sword, canes, stilettos and brass or metallic knI1ck- les is 100 per cent of the cost price.
 On livery boots and hats, hunting and shooting garments and riding habits, and fur garments, yachts and other pleasure boats, costing more than s15, the tax is 10 per cent.
 Toilet soaps and soap powders are taxed per cent; works of art, 10 per cent Ten per cent is the tax on car pets and rugs on an amount more than $5 per yard; picture frames on an amount more than S1O each; trunks on an amount more than $50: travel ing and similar bags on an amount more than $25.
 The tax is 10 per cent on the amount exceeding $7.50 paid for purses and similar articles; s25 for portable light fixtures, s4 for umbrellas, parasols etc.; $1 for fans, s7.50 for house jack cts, lounging robes, etc; &5 for men's S waistcoats, SIS for women's hats, $5 for mems hats, 8 for mems caps, s10 for shoes of all kinds, $2 for mems neckwear, $1 for silk hose for men g for women's silk hose, s for mems shirts, $5 for pajamas both sexes, s15 for kimonos, petticoats and similar garments.

NET PROFITS OF COMPANY 27
 PER CENT. HIGHER

The report of the directors of the United Illuminating Company made at the annual meeting in New Havet yesterday shows that the net profits of the company were 27 per cent. moro in 1919 than in 1918.
 Regarding the new great power plant improvement at Bridgeport, the report says:
 Plans are partially complete, and
 some contracts already placed for buildings anli equipment and work will be started in the early spring. Ii is hoped that 10000 K. W. of equip nent will be in operation early in 1921. The plans of building are such that future extensions, as they are needed, can Fbe made without detri- ment to buildings already placed. Room enough in land has been pro vided to the end that 100000 K. W. ot equipment can be placed thereon" l The company reports that practi- cally all of the issue of 12,40O shares of the new stock of the company has been taken up Gby stockholders or by persons anxious to secure some DOT | ton of these valuable shares.

DINOSAURUS NO
 ANIMAL TO HAVE
 IN YOUR GARDEN
Eighty Three Feet Too
 Large For Bungalow Type of Pet.

An important precaution, in com pairing the reported "size'' of differ ent animals, whether living or ex- tinct, is to make sure that we are really comparing bulk with bulk.
 The "tai1'' of a. whale that is to say, the part of the body beyond the vent--is not excessively narrowed, but only gradually tapering, and is not more than a fourth of the whole length. The shape of the entire whale is that of an elongated egg, narrower at one end than the other.
 In a whale of eighty feet long the bulk of the body, even excluding the head and tail, is at least forty times greater than that of the biggest e1e- phant. That is, in. fact indicated by their relative weights-the one two hundred and the other five tons
 So, it appears, we must take into consideration the shape and propor- ton of neck, trunk and tail when comparing the sizes of different kinds of gigantic animals.
