On Mistakes.

There are fifty-seven or more
methods of making up schedules for
taxes and no one pays any attention
to either one of these methods. In
framing up the tax schedule for the
Chicago Valley Bodies the Finance
Committee adopted the attached sug-
gestion-and the total figured out alb
solutely correct:
How to Arrive at Your Income Tax
First, take your income,
Add wife's income,
Divide by your eldest sons age,
Add your telephone number,
Subtract your auto-license number,
Add electric light bill,
Divide by the number of kilowatts,
Multiply by your fathers age,
Add number of gold filings in teeth,
Add your house number,
Subtract wife's age (approximate) b,
Divide by the number of aunts you
have,
Add the number of uncles,
Subtract the number of daughters
Multiply by the number of times you
have gone up in airplanes,
Subtract your best golf score,
Add a pinch of salt,
And then go out and borrow the
money and pay the tax.

Europe Redeems
Printed Money

times was worth at what is called the
par of exchange, nearly a quarter in
American money now is so cheapened
that you can buy three marks for an
American penny. The Austrian crown
has been as cheap as 1900 for 81. A
$40 bill of American money in Russia
would exchange for enough rubles to
make what would have been a Rus
sian fortune before the war.
Trade, especially international
trade, has become very difficult under
these conditions. The problem of re-
storing these currencies to something
like normal value has perpleXed Euro
pean tinanciers and economists ever
since the imitation started. 1t is one
of the big questions before the Genoa
conference which has been called TO
solve European economic and political
problems. The United States declined
an invitation to this conference, part
~ because of the danger Of becoming
involved in so unstable a condition Of
affairs as that created by the cheap
currencies.
Development Surprises Experts.
Now, the new development which
has surprised economists in connec-
tion with this situation is the discov-
cry that there is a tendency on the
part Of Europeans to bring about a
hitherto undreamed of method of cor
recting the imitation. Many plans have
been suggested but none has been
found practical The new develop
ment is one which, if it continues, viii
tend to correct the situation without
the aid Of conferences or politicians.
The development is hailed as a re-
versal of Gresham's law. The fact
seems to be that the people of Russia,
Germany and Poland and some Of the
other nations having badly depreci-
ated currencies have become so dis
gusted with the nuisance Of dealing
with cheap money that they are bring
ing out of hiding their boards of gold
and other valuable money, A case

Hen Lays Daily
on Kitchen Table

York, PA pet Plymouth
Rock hen, owned by Charles f.
Laucks of Red Lion, delivers an
egg each day on the kitchen
table with more grace and in
telIigence than the ordinary
huckster.
The fowl found the kitchen
door ajar one morning, slipped
in, flew upon the table and
scratching together several
pieces of paper, deposited a
clean white egg, ready for use.
Since her first effort the door
has been left open, but when
Mrs. Laucks forgets to do so, the
pet cackles for admission. The
hen has been so regular that
a small cushion has been placed
on the table, and each day she
comes in and deposits an egg

Currency Revolution Seen.

What economists see in this devel-
opment IS the possibility Of a gradual
revolution in European currencies.
For instance. the Russians have dis
covered that their own rubles are
nearly useless but that they can get
big value for British or American or
other good money. Consequently they
will try to get hold of as much of this
foreign money as possible.
In early days in Europe this same
phenomenon occurred. Money issued
at the great banking centers of Ven
ice, Antwerp ana a few other cities
came into general use all over Europe,
displacing cheaper native currencies
because everybody knew It was good
money.
Recently, the United States treasury
removed the ban from the free issue
of gold and gold certificates. 1t is
thought possible by economists and
students of International finance that
good deal of this gold money, known
all over the world as being obtainable,
will reach the countries abroad having
deprecated currency and become pop
ular as a valuable medium of ex-
change This has not been possible
until the last few days because the
treasury and the federal reserve banks
would not let gold 90 into general cir
culation, but now 1t is possible for
foreign-born Americans to get this
money and send it to their relatives
abroad.
1t is recognized that this process of
substitution of foreign money for the
deprecated native currencies would
be slow, but some economists believe
that it is a possible but necessarily
slow solution to the European emer-
gency problem
