SUPPLIES TO ISLANDERS.
Food Carried over the Ice to Magdalene
Islands.

Sydney. n. s, Feb. 24.-Supplies for
the inhabitants of the Magdalene Is
lands. ice bound and on limited ra
tions for several weeks, have been land
ed on Grindstone island, one of the
group, according to wireless message
received here yesterday from the gov
ernment steamer Montcalm. The yes
sci succeeded Sunday in making her
way to within a mile Of Pleasant bay
and there transferred the provisions to
teams from the island, which drove out
over the frozen surface of the bay.
The Montcalm's captain virtually
had given up all hope of getting the
supplies 10 the islands after bucking
the ice fields for several weeks. The
storm of last week shifted the ice foes
and permitted him TO break through,
the message said.

Paris. Feb. 24-The final documents
to the Hungarian reply to the allied
peace terms were presented to the sec
rotary of the peace conference on Sat
urday last. The Hungarian attitude has
been represented here as an uncompro-

tachment of Transylvania and other
territories and the economic terms of
the treaty. 1t became known yester
day, however, that the reply is based
rather on the principle of self deter

BUSINESS DEDUCTIONS.
More Instructions Regarding the In
come Tax.

Before claiming as deduction IN
the preparation of an income tax re-
turn "all the ordinary and necessary
expenses paid or incurred during the
taxable year in carrying on any trade
or business it must be determined
Just what constitutes a trade or bust
ness.
Trade or business has been held to
include professions and vocations The
trade or business of an individual Is
the pursuit OF an occupation TO which
he devotes wholly or in part his time
and attention for the purpose of liveli-
hood or profit. A single transaction or
series of isolated transactions Is not
regarded as business.
4 person may carry on more than
one business or trade if he devotes sui
ficient time and attention to each en-
terprise, and may claim as deductions
the business expenses of each. Mere in
vestment of capital for profit, however
is not sufficient to allow such claim,
For example, a merchant investing IN
oil stocks who desires to visit the scene
of operations may not include the cost

Allowable Items.
From his gross sales, n manufac-
turer or merchant should deduct the
cost of goods sold during the year, the
result being his gross income for the
year In this computation he should
take into consideration the inventories
of goods on hand at the beginning and
end of the taxable year.
From his gross income he is allowed
to deduct as business expenses such
items rs salaries and wages, rent paid
for use of business property in which
taxpayer has no equity, interest on
business indebtedness TO others, taxes
on business and business property, mi
nor repairs, a reasonable allowance for

CLERGYMEN'S FEES TAXABLE.
But Bonafide Gifts Are Immune from
Government Levy.

Aside from the salary which clergy
man receives during the year, he must
consider as taxable income the fees re-
ceived for special services performed
for individuals or organizations. Also,
in case he is furnished with rectory,
or living quarters, the fair rental value
of the accommodations thus provided
must be considered income just as truly
as though he were paid the value in
cash and expended it for his home or
quarters as personal expense. If his
meals are provided by the congregation,
free of charge to him, the fair value Of
such board is taxable income.
In addition, there may be bank in
terest, bond interest, and number of
other kinds Of income which must be
considered taxable to a clergyman, as
in the case of the farmer, business man
and wage worker.
Many clergymen receive fees for spe-
cal services, which may cover simple
recitals of prayers for the dead, or
marriages, christenings and other eere-
monies and services which are incident
to their calling.
No Tax on Gifts.
Bonafde gifts are not taxable under
the income tax laws. However, there
Is a clear distinction to be made be-
tween fee and a gift. The annual
Christmas offering to the pastor, which
is custom in many parishes, is purely
and simply gift. Bat the Easter col
lection for his benefit is considered TO
be in the nature of additional compen-
sation for his services to the individ-
uals contributing.
A clergyman may receive an un-
usually large fee, which might have
the appearance of gift. But if that
fee was in consideration of the per
Torrance Of some service, the offering
must be considered taxable income.

An immense amount of new mer-

The Operation of This 20 Per
Cent Deduction Sale Is of
Extraordinary Interest in the
DOun Stairs
Store ..

AS the people of Philadelphia know,
this Down Stairs Store is the only one of
it's kind in the world. s.
The most usual conception of the
usefulness of a separate store below the
Main Floor is to have bargain base
ment,' for riddance of undesirable
goods.
The Wanamaker Down Stairs Store
is altogether different.
1t is a complete store of
fresh, neW goods bought
especially for it and neUer be-
longing to any other section.
1t is store developed upon the idea
of having merchandise of sterling
quality and proven utility at low prices.
1t is Philadelphia's favorite, original and
Incompatible lower-priced store. .
1t is famous for it's good shoes, it's
smart millinery, its clothing for men,
women and children; for it's low-priced
rugs its gloves, it's handkerchiefs, it's
ShiltWalsts, its undermuslins, for it's
fashion and dress accessories of every
sort, to be found here in better qualities
at lower prices than they can be found in
any other loW-priced store, no matter
how greatsmay be reductions claimed or
special values cited.

Some people who are doubters
that it was only an advertising scheme
at first and would not come are now
among the earliest inside the doors in
the mornings. .,~
For the word has gone round that
it is authentic, that it is real, that it is
straightforward, as all Wanamakeran-
nouncements always have been.
Everythingin our two Stores is for
sale at 20 per cent less than the regular
market prices with the exception of
about $4,000 worth of restricted
goods.

>included, but we are glad to say right
here that the greater part of the busi-
ness we are doing is in the. necessity
rather than the luxury class.
People are buying furniture and
. floor coverings and necessary clothing,
shoes and house furnishing utensils,
linens and dress goods and china and
bedding, more than anything else. A
great many pianos are sold, too, but
the piano is hardly to be classed as a
luxury; it is necessity in these days
