MAKING M1LLIoNA1REs

San Bernardino Sun: We do not
refer to it for the purpose or indicat-
ing how far the income tax bureau
of the internal revenue division OF the
treasury department is behind with its
work, but the income tax report of 1919
is Just released, and it shows that G5
citizens that year enjoyed an income
of 81 100000 or more. Five or those
plethoric ones admit their incomes
exceed $4,000, 900 each-how far in ex-
cess nobody knows. Henry Ford has
publicly stated that his income tax for
one recent year was $77,000,000. There
are 189 others who get in the "exceed.
ing $500, 900 class, "and computing the
entire number who admit incomes in
excess Of $4,000, there is grand
total of 6,639 who may properly be
elased as "millionaires, 100000 be-
ing six per cent interest on $l,500,000.
1t is pointe dout that in 1860, the
year before the Civil War broke out,
the, imperfect Investigations of that
time revealed but 10 persons credited
with possessing money and property
aetually in excess of 100000. In
1890, 30 years later, the National City
Bank issued pamphlet placing the
number Of actual millionaires in the
United States at 1000. From which it
would appear that the country made
nillionaires faster in the so years from
1880 to 1890, than it did in the three
decades between 1890 and 1920 real
ly surprising fact.

One Minute Essay

The superstition that it is bad luck
to upset the salt at table is sometimes
said to have originated from Leonardo
de Vinci's painting Of the Last Sup
per- in which Judas Iscariot is repre-
sented as upsetting a saltcellar. But
the superstition is much older than that
In ancient times salt was compara-
lively scarce commodity; frequently it
was served at meal time in one dish for
; all to dip into, and just as dinner
guest of today would feel that he was
having a sun Of hard luck If he acci-
dentally broke sevres plate, so would
one of the ancients feel about aeciden-
tally overturning the saltceliar.
Furthermore, .as the ancients regarded
salt as emblematic Of redemption, 1t
was not unnatural they should have
looked upon the spilling Of it as an
ieyil omen. The custom Of throwing a
pinch of spilled salt over the left
shoulder three times to break the "hoo-
doc" is clearly pagan survival of the
times when salt was one Of the propitia'
tory offerings made 10 the evil deities
who sent bad luck.

WASHINGTON, May 13.--Back home

dozen ears.
The cook stuck his head out of the
kitchen door "just to get look at dat
man." and finally the hotel proprietor,
| who few moments before had been

hurry trip to store after more corn,
came in to have a personal look at
the person who was consuming so
much of it and to tell him that he would
have to wait until new batch of corn
was cooked.
