COMES TO RESCUE
OF MARRIED MEN
Uncle Sam Increases Ex-
en1ption on Income Tax
to $500.
SOME STILL THE SAME
Single Taxpayers Continue to
Have $1,000 Exemption; $4OO
for Each Dependent.

Uncle Sam has come to the rescue of
the married man, wAe believes himself
burdened with the federal income tax.
This was demonstrated this morning
when A. w. Foster, eollector of inter
nal revenue for Kenosha, received cop
les Of the Revenue Act of 1921, reveal
ing that important changes have hSsn
made in personal exemptions to be
claimed by the taxpayers.
Those who complied the new law
evidently took intO consideration the
fact that the exemption for a married
man was too low at $4,000. The big
geat change made in the law is that
the personal exemption for q married
man 10 to be $4,000 instead Of $4,000
fer ell with salaries less than $4,000
year. II the salary exceeds $4,000 q
year. the old exemption Of $4,000 is
held adequate.
Dependent Claim Changed.
The new law also allows q larger ex-
emption for the care of children or
other dependents. Prier to this year,
an exemption Of $500 was allowed for
each dependent receiving entire sup
port from the taxpayer. The new law
prescribes that the exemption for de-
aendeHts will be s4oo each and this
change applies to all incomes,
The easing up Of the burden did not
extend 10 the single taxpayer. Under
the new Law, the exemption there is
still fixed at $1,000.
Fer the married man with salary
Of less than $4,000 year. the new pro-
visioH will mean . saving Of $40 . year
In his federal income tax.
OsssF Important Changes.
Collector Foster also pointed out
that an important change had been
made regarding losses incurred by a
taxpayer. Heretofore a heavy loss
could be suharacssd emily in compiling
the income for the year in which it
occurred. Under the new ruling the
iesses may be carried over from year
to year, dedueting the balance from
The loss claimed in a previous year.
The amount which is deducted each
year remains the same but if this
does not account for the entire loss,
the remainder may be deducted in sub
sequent years.
The new law also provides that the
entire amount of travelling expenses
incurred by tha taxpayer in the carry
ing on Of business may be suhtracted
instead Of tina difference between that
and normal expenses as in previous
years.
The new blanks have not yet arrived
but they are expected to reach Keno
sha in few days. The rate Of taxa
tien on the net taxable income re-
mains the sams~-4 per cent.

Optimistic On
Irish Situation
tpr A.,oelated Press Leased wIre.l

London Dispatches to the morn

view previously published that the
split in the Dali Eireann cabinet is
not likely to prevent passage of the
peace treaty by the southern Irish
parliament although views differ whe-
Their the majority in it's favor will be
large or small. Hardly any new light
Is thrown on the situation by these
reports, the correspondents speeula-

sign as head of the Dali government
and Arthur Griffith will succeed him.

Pure, Healthy Blood Destroys Germs, Removes the Waste
 Tissues and Rebuilds Bone and Muscle
If Your Blood Is Weak, Don't
 Delay
Take Gude's Pepto-Mangan,
 the Red Blood Builder

In your body are two gallons (more or less) of blood, which is constantly at work keeping your system free of germs, removing the waste tissues and building up new strength in bone and muscle.
 This blood must be healthy or your resistance to disease and fatigue will be lowered, you will lose weight and both body and mind will have less vigor.
 For building up blood weakened by overwork, illness or other causes, Gude's Pepto- -Mangan. for years pre- scribed by physicians is now generally known as prompt and harmless tonic.
 Gude's Pepto Mangan soon produces marked beneficial results. The tired. worn-out, rundown feeling disappears. And in its stead a vigorous wholesome ness and happiness proves that the blood has been supplied with the sore ly needed richness to supply the entire system with renewed strength.
 When you buy Pepto- -Mangan at your druggists, be sure the name "Gudes' Is on the package. You can get it in either liquid or tablet form. If the name "Gude's' is not on the package it Is not Pepto- o-Mangan.-Ady
