big mogul in charge of publicity
insisted upon having Ben pose for
q fresh batch of photos.
"Make me look like a genius
heh! heh!" heh-heh'd the Old
Maestro, flicking the ashes
from the end of his La StinkOla.
"YOu know. I've been trying to
look like a genius for years."
"I'Il do the very best 1 can,"
offered the man with the
camera. Lets have a little
more of your cuff"
ooh, yes, the cuff" agreed
Ben, as he tugged at the white
shirt sleeve. There ought to
be more of that-there's plenty
on it."
Fine, that's the pose. Hold
it! NOw-yOu look just like

BOY! Quick, some water! Mr..
Bernie is out of the picture. He

Filling Station
Bandit a Failure
Attempt to Hold Up Former Sank
Centre Man Meets With I'm
expected Opposition

L. w. ellison, who in company
with his father, w. H. ellison, form
er Sank Centre residents, had a
rather unusual experience a few
evenings ago when an attempt was
made to hold up the oil station of
w. H. ellison & Son, DEBORAH la.
The holdup was attempted short
ly before midnight by a young man
about 81 years of age. The near
bandit drove up to the filling sta
ton in a Ford Tudor and requested
that his car be filled. In the
meantime he stepped into the sta
ton and as ellison entered the sta
ton he was facing gun, with a
demand for the station money. Gill
son pointed to the cash register
and opened it upon demand. While
the money was being extracted the
gun in the right had was pointed
toward the floor. Sensing the STU
alton ellison grabbed the gun with
his left hand and landed well di-
rected blow in the face of the rob-
Der. Knocking him back against a
couple of oil barrels. Recovering
quickly the bandit lost any appe-
tite to hold up the station and dash
ed for the door and down the
street leaving his car behind. The
car proved to be a stolen one. A
straw hat and pair of glasses are
the My clews of the identity of the
robber the sheriff has to work on.

235 Employees Added Since
January 1881, State Aud
itor Claims in Letter

st. Paul, June Estate depart
ments under the jurisdiction of
Governor Floyd B. Olson, have add
ed 235 employees to their stats in
two years, with a yearly payroll in
crease Of $2O3,276.67, State Auditor
Stafford King declared today in a
letter in which he charged the
governor with being "insincere and
unfair in the whole matter of pay
reductions.
Mr.. King, a republican official,
said he called the governors at
tention to increased costs in these
departments, both verbally and by
letter, as long ago as Oct. z, 1881.
The continuation of these costs to
which then called your attention,
does not give me any kindly feeling
of cooperation in the plan you now
suggest, which 7 believe is sub
mitted only that you may overcome
before the first of July, a very pos
sible overdraft on your own estab-
lished budget.
1.-The original fault was and is
yours. 1t should be corrected where
it was permitted to grow, before
you ask any other department Of
state for assistance.
eff you are sincere in this mat
ter, why not readjust salaries in
these departments back to your
decentralization salary rates?
And, If you had been entirely sim
cere why did your original discus
sion take place in the public press
rather than the accredited confer
ences of the executive council, es-
tablished by law for that and for
other purposes?"

Cosmetics Included in $235
Annual Levy Against Mar
ried Man Earning $4,000

Washington, June eff you are
a married business man with one
child and a net income of $4,000,
the new federal taxes will cost you
something like $235 year.
That sum is arrived at on the
basis of figures used by members
of the house and senate when the
new rates were before congress
taking $4,000 as a starting point SO
as to allow a man enough money
to buy some of the taxed luxuries.
If you are that $4,000 man, your
exemptions will be $4,000, including
$500 for your son or daughter. The
income tax on the remaining $500
will be $124 against the old levy of
$23.63.
The automobile you buy that the
manufacturer sells for $500 will cost
you $1S in taxes. Unless the car
comes fully equipped, you'll prob
ably buy a couple of bumpers and
a spare tire costing $50, on which
you will be taxed go cents.
You'll use, say TOO gallons of
gasoline a year, if you take any
trips, on which you'll pay 81. If
you use 80 gallons of lubricating
oil, you'll give another $1,20 to the
treasury. You tires and tubes will
cost about 81 a year in taxes.
If your wife gets 5000 fur coat,
that's another $40 tax. Should you
by chance indulge in beer making
using brewers wort, the national
treasury collects another So.
Then your wife's perfumes, cold
creams, powder, rouge and what
not will cost another So in taxes,
and If you buy her a $50 watch the
government gets S. more.
