this about until it is opposite the size
needle desired. and the needle is then
shaken out through the hole. And
afterward the needle can be put right
back in the case again. Not only does
this save needles-there is less danger
of losing them-but it also protects the
needles and keeps them from rusting.
Isn't this good idea? The price of

want to tell you of polish that is
recommended for shoes that have tops
of light leather. It is n cleansing and
protecting oil that comes very highly
recommended. For instance, the shoe
saw that had been cleaned with It
was of dull soft leather with light kid
tops. The dressing had not only cleaned
the tops and made them fresh as new,
but it also had restored the original soft
glow of the leather. 1t appears that
this preparation has both cleansing and

$43,000,000 IN 1919 TAXES

ATLANTA, July 27.-Though the
official figures are not yet obtain
able, it is understood Georgia taxes
paid to the United States Govern
ment during 1919, total of approx
imately $43000,000. Collector of In
ternal Revenue A. o. Blalock stated
that he was not authorized to give
out any figures and declined to dis
cuss the matter. The official figures
for Georgia will be given out in
Washington along with the figures
for other states.
The total Federal taxes collected in
Georgia in 1918 was about $32,000,-
600. This total, includes income, oc-
cupation and various other taxes,
will, provided the gain is as much
as Is per cent, reach $43,000,000 for
1919.
1t is understood that the income
taxes alone for 1919 will amount to
about $33,000000.
