Income Tax Has Never
Had Great Popularity

Imaginative persons seem never to
tire of conjecturing as to which Of
modern mans accomplishments would
most astound our ancestors.
Inc motorcar or the airplane Is
usually the favorite, but If one could
select a chosen few, comprising many
Of the kings of England along with
their councillors. probably the>achieve
ment which would bulk largest in
their eyes would be the collection of
the income tax
Starting with Edward III, who dis
tinguished himself by collecting $780,,
600 by a graduated capital levy in
1921 without causing revolution, the
history of the efforts of the rulers of
our race to yoke US with this burden
is interesting. Edward HIS levy was
very modest, says A. G. d. in the Win
nipeg Free Press. 1t ranged from $50
to s cents, according to the position
of the taxpayer.
Richard Ibis ill-starred grand
son-almost lost his throne before he
had got firmly seated on 1t, because he
levied still more modest tax, rang
ing from SIS to cents. Wat Tyler,
before he was murdered, so convinced
the rulers Of Britain that an income
tax was not practical form Of taxa
ton that Il was more than 200 years
before such a levy was again at
tempted.

Almonds Queer Habifs

The almond tree has peculiar whims.
It seems to prefer California as its
habitat, as 9S per cent of the almonds
grown in America are produced In that
state, and in a rather restricted terri
tory at that. The bulk of the crop is
grown around Banning, says Nature
Magazine. 1t seems to require the
spots where extremes of cold and heat
are present In their respective seasons,
and photographs have been taken Of an
orchard with snow on the ground on
the first of February, and again with
the trees in full bloom by the 26th Of
the month. The same variety will not
fertilize one another. Growers must
plant alternating rows Of hardshells
and papershells in order to insure a
harvest.

Marvellous Natural Bridge

The Rainbow natural bridge is To-
Gated within the Navajo Indian reser-
walton near the southern boundary of
Utah, and spans canyon and small
stream which drains the northwest
ern slope of-the Navajo mountains.
This bridge is unique in that it is not
only a symmetrical arch below but
presents also a curved surface above,
thus roughly suggesting a rainbow.
Its height above the surface of the
water is 800 feet, and its span is 27S
feet. The bridge and its neighboring
canyon walls are gorgeously clothed
in notified red and yellow. The In
dian story concerning its origin Is that
rainbow was turned to stone, thus
permitting certain hero gods to es-
cape flood waters in the canyon De
vout Indians will not pass under this
bridge without saying their prayers.
The Indian name was Nagee-lid Nom
ne-zoshi-"The rainbow turned to
stone"

The average yield Of honey this year

states the yield is less than average,
Yields In Texas and In southern Cali

Safe Makers Only One
Jump Ahead of Thieues

Recent defensive experiments and in
ventions might lead us to forecast an
end to bank burglary. But to bring
this about in fact is not SO easy, as
serts the Scientific American. What
concerns safe makers Immediately is
the possibility Of deyising some metal
or other substance capable Of resisting
the devastating onslaught of the vari-
GUS types of the acetylene torch, a
high temperature device which will eat
its fiery way through metal defenses
once thought absolutely impregnable.
The contest between the safe cracker
and the safe maker is fast resolving
itself into the old problem of the ir-
resistible force and the immovable
body-with the odds in favor Of the
safe cracker.
Since the beginning of safe making
the inventors have had two sets of
men to deal with-the burglars who
use the drill and those who use ex-
plosives. Each new improvement of
safes has been met, on the part of the
burglar, with methods for successfully
attacking 1t.

Writing on Pinheod
No Longer Novelty

wandering about town one might
get the idea that America had de-
yeloped new industry-that Of en-
craving the Lords prayer on pinheads
The impression is strengthened if one
takes to visiting the regions in which
sideshows flourish, near town or along
the rustic routes of the travelling
shows.
Considering that the man who en-
graved the prayer on a pin a few
years ago was reported to have gone
blind and insane as a result Of his
three years Of application, one might
almost pause to ask IL all this pin en-
craving were not dangerous. There
is no fear, however; the engraved pin
business has been placed on safe
and sane basis, remarks the New York
Times.
The original pin was all that has
been said for it. On a disk forty
seven one-thousandths of an inch in d.
ameter there were engraved 65 words
with 254 letters. and nearly 1900 lines
had to be cut in doing 1t. The original
might conceivably have got lost in a
sewing basket and gone the way Of
all pins. But die was made Of It
no inconsiderable job In itself-and
the market Is now supplied from the
die.

Likes and DisIikes for
Various Kinds of Food

Many races, many foods, many fads.
The luxury Of one people Is the bane
OF another. An attempt is being made
to Introduce snails as an article of food
in certain London restaurants. The
French, Of course, regard snails as a
delicacy, while Britishers almost shud-
der at the thought of eating them! Yet
English folks eat mussels, whelks and
wrinkles, which In some countries are
regarded as being unfit for human con-
sumption. In England the eel Is rel
ished by many people, but in Scotland
1t Is detested by nearly everybody.
Rabbits are looked upon as vermin in
some parts of America and Australia
and are seldom served at table. In
Britain rabbit pie is a favorite dish.
Swede turnips are often eaten in Scot.
land and Canada with other yegets-
bles, whereas In some parts Of England
they are cordially disliked and gives
only to cattle. Turnip-tops in Scotland,
again, are not considered worth cook
ing. But In Covent Garden they sell
by the ton.-London Mail.

Groufh of JeIIyffsh

The manner In which jellyfish pro-
duces its children" is really wonder
full.
In most cases the beginning is an
egg, which, lying on the bottom, pre-
duces beautiful tree-like growth. The
tree" fastens itself to the bottom and
brings forth buds which, when ripe,
drop off and develop into jellyfish. The
latter, In turn, lay eggs and the process
Is repeated, as told in London Tit-BitA
Most of the very large species have
different way of reproducing them
selves. The egg is set free In the water
and develops into pear-shaped larvae,
which for while swims about rapidly,
being provided with hair-like append
ages that serve the purpose of ears.
Then the larvae settles down, anchors
itself to the bottom, increases in size
rapidly and finally splits up into thin,
fat discs which swim of and grow up
into large jellyflshes.

Sweet clover may be sown the same

Usually sown. 1t may be sown with
wheat, oats or barley, and when sown
on wheat early in the spring some
provision should be made for getting
the seed covered soon after sowing
From 10 to II pounds of seed per

Black Maria

Everybody knows that prison vans
are called "Black Marias." The rea.
son for that appellation is given in the
following terms in the Star Of Novem-

from a correspondent:
"About 1885 or 1910 there resided
In New York city lady of African de-
scent and bacchanalian habits bearing
the classical name of Maria. Her
sprees were frequent and glorious. 1t
came to pass that whenever she in

Builds Miniature Rail
Line on Country Estate

". Cecil Gage, retired broker, Of
Flshkill, N. z. has just completed q
two-mile miniature railway system,
which he has constructed with his
own hands entirely from odds and
eaGs found lying about his estate.
The tracks and switches We're
made from the floor beams and the
cars and locomotive from the parti-
lions Of dismantled farm buildings.
Ashes from the family furnace served
Is ballast for the tracks. A gasolins
motor to run the locomotive and
wheels for locomotive and carr are
the only parts Of the system fhAt are
not homemade.
Mr.. Gage began constructing his lit
tie road five years ago In order to
supply himself with an easy way
Of disposing Of ashes. He has been
steadily adding to 1t since then until
row he has two miles Of track, i've

car, eight switches, four crossings
equipped with warning signs, a turn
table. a snowplow and half a dozen
stations. At night and during severe
weather long chicken house serves
as "roundhouse" for the protection
Of the rolling stock.
The road Is used to carry farm
products, frewood and similar mate
rails about the estate DIS well as to
take the children of Fishkill and the
surrounding towns for joyriding. Mr..
Gage estimates his yearly mileage an
something above 10000. The tiny
cars attain speed of 20 miles an hour
or more on straight runs. and. al

have been carried as passengers,

Horses Repay Kindness

Il is said the Arabs were the first to
appreciate a horses intelligence and
to treat him accordingly. They kept
the history Of their horses written on
tablets of ivory and traced their parent
age back to the time Of the pharaohs
They were extremely thoughtful of the
comfort Of the horse and it was even
said they took better care Of their
horses than they did of their families.
Constant companionship made the Ara
bian horse quick TO understand the
meaning Of words, and kindness made
them fearless, brave and obedienf. The
intelligence Of the horse varies just as
1t does In other animals, or even peo-
pie. and is developed or retarded ac-
cording to mans treatment of him,
says bulletin of the American Society
for the Prevention Of Cruelty to AMI
mails.
