INCOME TAX REDUCTION

A. H. Wilkinson, Collector of In
ternal Revenue for the State of Wis
consin, announced that the Revenue
Act of 1924, signed by the President
under date of June End, provides for
a reduction of 25@o on income taxes
payable in 1924 by individuals and
trust estates.
Mr.. Wilkinson stated that in all
cases where individuals paid three
fourths of the amount of tax reported
no further payment will be due; that
if, at the time the taxpayer filed his
return, he paid one-half. of the
amount of tax reported, no payment
will be due until September 18th.
However, if at the time the individ-
ual filed his return he paid only one
fourth of the amount of tax reported,
he will only be obliged to pay, on or
before June 18th, one-half of the
amount paid by him when he filed
his return. In handling the tax pay
ment in this manner the individual
will be receiving credit on his June
18th installment of the excess paid
at the time the return was filed,
which results from the $3.50 reduc-
ton incorporated in the new tax bill.
Mr.. Wilkinson also called attention
to the fact that the $3.50 reduction
does not apply to corporations.

Old age should be happy-NOt Time
of sickness and suffering.
Too many people begin to suffer at
middle age with constant backache,
urinary ills and rheumatic pains and
aches. Weak kidneys are usually the
cause and, if neglected, there is dan
ger of hardened arteries, dropsy, gra-
vel or Bright's disease. Help your
weakened kidneys with a stimulant
diuretic before kidney disease gets a
firm hold! Use Doan's Pills. Thou
sands of old folks recommend DOan's.
Here is River Falls proof:
S. B. Wilton, retired blacksmith,
121 N. Sixth St., says: "My kidneys
were run down and / had dull ache
in my back. When I leaned over,
sharp pains through my kidneys put
me in misery. My kidneys acted too
frequently and / had to get up sew

Pills and they cured me. l haven't
