FILE INCOME TAX
RETURNS EARLY

c. A. Rasmussen, Collector of Inter
nal Revenue, Helena, Montana, calls
attention to the fact that the last day
for filing income tax returns is on
Tuesday, March Is; and urges al
taxpayers to file early.
There are no changes in the law,
regulations, rates OF exemptions from
last year: the Act of 1926 governing
the fling Of this years returns. Those
who must file are single persons
(widows and widowers included) who
had net income of $500 or more, or
gross income of $4,000 or more; and
married couples who had net income
$4,000 or more. The personal exemp-
tions are $500 for each single individ-
ual, and $500 for each married per-
son, with an additional exemption of
$400 fo each child under 18. In addi-
ton, the taxpayer gets credit for 25
per cent Of the earned income on the
amount of his tax, basd on net in
come.
In making out his income tax for
the year 1926, the business man, pro-
fessional man, and farmer, is required
to use Fom 1910: regardless of wheth-
er his net income was or was not in
excess of $4,000. The mailer Form
1040 A is used for reporting incomes
Of SIS 900 less, derived chiefly from
salaries or wages.
Attention is called to the fact that
in previous years, in number of agri-
cultural districts in this state, farm
ers have failed to file returns, who had
gross income of $4,000 or moreover
though such returns would have prov
ed non taxable. In order to avoid
penalties by reason of Investigations
in the future, such persons as are
engaged in farming operations and
who come under the limitations of this
Act-that is to say, who have gross
incomes Of over $5,000--should file re-
turns accompanied by the Farm
Schedule known as 1910 F.
The Collector also calls attention
to the fact that disclosures must be
made by depositors Of closed banks
who have received dividends from the
receivers of such banks in excess of
the amount allowed as a deduction in
the year in which such bank closed
Forms have been sent to persons
who last year filed returns of income.
Failure to receive a form, however,
does not relieve the taxpayer from his
obligation to file return and pay
the tax within the time prescribed, on
or before March Is, 1927. All corpor-
ations and partnerships must file in
come tax returns, regardless Of the
amounts of their income, and even
though they operated at loss. Fail
ure to file returns within the time
specified by law, will result in penal
ties for delinquency. The Bureau of
Internal Revenue wishes to avoid i'm
posing penalties wherever and when
ever possible.

Franklin Would Haze
Put Maxin,s on Coins

The first third of the Nineteenth
century was the heyday of Stafford
shire ware decorated with pictures.
And not the least interesting of this
china was the series picturing maxims,
proverbs and morals
OF this didactlc china many pieces
carried reproductions of "Poor Rich
ards sayings, which our great Amer
lean, Benjamin Franklin, Industrious
ly circulated through his Poor Rich
ards Almanack for % years.
The Poor Richard maxims were
very near to Franklin's heart, and he
let no chance slip to get them into
greater circulation One of his prof.
ects-which, however, was not car
ried Out-was to imprint on one side
of the copper coins Of the new Amer
lean republic some proverbs Of Solo
mon and other sayings encouraging
thrift.
Diligence is the mother of good
luck,' and 'Plow deep while sluggards
sleep" were among those he suggested.
His practical and benevolent mind pic
tured how many a family would read
and ponder his rrecepts as they gath
cred round the bearth.-The Antigua

CAUSE AND CURE OF COLIC

CAUSE AND CURE OF COLlC
The usual treatment of collie is for
the baby's mother to waken the baby's
father at a. m. and suggest that he
take ten-mile hike. The walk is
taken in company with the baby which
he holds pressed against his shoulder,
the while patting it more or less gent
1y on the conventional part of its anat-
omy. The baby's cries are punctuated
by an occasional remark by the father
which cannot here be quoted.
This is a nightly occurrence during
the first six months of the baby's life
Many a man who started on his mari
tai career hoping he would be blessed
with a family of five or six children
undergoes a decided change of opinion
during these nocturnal eXcursions-he
wouldn't take a million dollars for the
screaming little bit of humanity he's
holding-but!l.
There are several reasons why a
baby has collie and recognition of these
causes offer clue to their prevention.
The pancreas, which has so much
to do with digestion, does not func-
tion to any extent until the infant is
about six months old, and fermentation
of the imprefectly digested food
causes gas to form in the intestine.
Peptonizing powder dissolved in warm
water, given before each feeding. is
helpful in this connection.
The musculature of the intestinal
tract Of an infant is weak and as a
result gas pockets form in the bowl,
leading to distention and severe pain.
Massage of the abdomen helps to
break up these pockets and move the
gas along.
Most infants swallow considerable
air with their food and by nighttime
this has reached a volume sufficient to
cause trouble. To counteract this
good plan is to hold the baby over
ones shoulder and pat his back, after
each, feeding, until he belches up the
air.
Causes of Chronic Attributable to-
the Mother.
Sometimes the fault lies in the mo-
theirs condition, which should be care
fully investigated in every case The
mother should have plenty of rest, be
free from worry as much as possible,
and get sufficient exercise. The nurs-
ing mother who cannot be accorded
these rights and pivi. .eges should not
be required to nurse her infant.
Many babies are fed too often and
the amount of each feeding is too
small. am convinced that after the
third month feedings should be given
not oftener than every four hours.
Nor should any night feeding be given
between 10 p. m. and 6 a. m. By at
tention to these details collie in many
eases can be prevented.
The Food as Cause of Collie
The milk itself may not be suited to
the infants needs and faulty compost
ton is frequently responsible for col
ic. The fats and proteins are usually
at the bottom of the trouble.
If there is a deficiency of fats the
mother should drink milk and eat GER
eals and fats. Where there is an ex-
cess of fats the number of feelings
should be cut down when the child
is breast-fed, or the amount of mix
in the mixture reduced in artificial
feeding.
When the proteids are the disturb
ing factor it is most likely because the
mother is getting insufficient exercise
and eating too much meat, eggs and
highly seasoned foods. She should eat
more fruits and vegetables.

ance, to make the girl feel so much at homo at the farmhouse that if she were frightened by the red bearded man she would rush to us as if to a sanctu: ry.
 Was it possible that Dicky. obsessed by his desire to obtain the girl as a model for one of the char acters in historical novel he was to illustrate, was deliberately trad ing upon my generosity? With a little shudder, l stopped my pacing and began to disrobe, determined to banish all troublesome thoughts.
 It was a long time before I went 10 sleep, even though I tried every means in my power to induce slum- Der 1 counted sheep, said the multi plication table backwards and for wards and recited to myself all the poems I knew. but it was long past midnight before l closed my eyes. And even then I was not free from the worries which had perplexed my brain.
 Through my dreams stalked the figures of the red bearded man of whose conversation with Dicky Katie had given me so vivid a description Enthusiastically Dicky trailed him, for ever shouting the phrase 1 had heard from Katie as coming from his lips:
 "Who touches hair of that red head!'
 Then the figures melted away and changed to that of Philip Veritzen. tall. stately, always with a cynical smile upon his lips as he regarded me. I dreamed that to every sug- gestion of mine he returned a dis approving comment until in despair I asked him:
 What do you want then?"
 In my dream l regretted the ques- ton, for I saw Mir. Neritzen lean toward me. his face changed into tenderness, end ask me significantly:

 katie's weird story definitely had established one thing in my mind Dicky had recognized one of the un- pleasant and mysterious neighbors, and he shared with the man patent ly disguised some prodigious jest which he did not intend to share with me. His statement that Junior was in no danger from the men fitted in with his behavior. but his warning to me concerning Eleanor Lincoln was diametrically opposed to it.
 If the red-bearded man was SO harmless that we need have no fear for Juniors safety, and also shared with Dicky a secret affording as much mirth as Katie had described. why should he fear that Miss Lin- coin would be annoyed by himo -
