TAXES

MOREFUNDS

With June income tax collec-
tions rejecting a SO per cent gain
over last year, Treasury studies
indicated today that Federal reve.
nues for the 1887 fiscal year will
greatly exceed budget expecta-
tions.
Preliminary reports from the
nations internal revenue districts
showed sass. S41,709 has been col
lected so far from second quarter
income tax returns. At this time
a year ago collections aggregated
$276,s $40.
The June is tax yield swelled
the amount Of money taken in BY
the Treasury since last July TO
$5,l72, 100000. This is only $751;
600 900 short Of the revenue
volume forecast recently by Presl-
dent Roosevelt in his revised
budget estimates.
At that time, the President pre-
dicted receipts for the year would
total $5,224,00 900.
On the basis of income tax
trends in former. additional pay
ments between June is and the
end Of the month should be more
than ample to bring revenues up to
the budget prediction.
During the final two weeks OF
June, 1895, the Treasury collected
$33, 256, 900 in additional income
taxes. This year these additional
collections are expected to be at
least so per cent greater this year.
Since July /, the income levtes
have enriched the Treasury by
42,07e, 200, 900. -

Manners
of the
Moment

YOU'D think that there were
enough lines for a person to
stand in these days without his
clambering for a place in the line
which always forms on train half an
hour before the train pulls into the
station. But no. We must all rush
pell-mell into the aisle and hang
YEARLY to our bags while We inch into
the railroad station.
But on serious thought, isn't it all a
silly shambles? 1t may take you a
minute longer to get off the train #
you sit in your seat than if you are
at the head Of the line But if you're
like us you won't be at the head OF
the line. Whether you're sitting or
standing during the last lap of the
journey, you'll be in. the middle of the
car. So what's the difference?
We advise therefore, that you sit
tight and take a nap. It's good for
your eyes. JEAN.

Travelling
With Tiny
Children
A Nurse Wears Dark
Clothes in Public
Rooms of Hotel.
BY EMILY POST.

l 1EAFt MftS. POS L. MY huSDdnd ana
I are taking a long trip, and this
is the first time We have travelled with
our Two small children and their nurse
VIII you tell me whether the hotels
have any rules about bringing baby's
nurse, who is colored, and how does
my husband register for the children
and her? Naturally we want her there
when we 20 out in the evening. Please
tell us how she is expected to dress
when travelling At home she wears
white dress and shoes.
Answer: Your husband registers
"Mr. and Mrs. John Blank and on
the lines below, two children and
nurse" A baby's nurse occupies the
same room in the hotel with the chill
dren, or an adjoining one. She goes
IN and out the front entrance whether
she is with or without the children
In the morning or whenever she is
bathing the children or staying IN
their room for long. she wears yhite.
But in the public halls or rooms OF
the hotel or on train or boat she
dresses as she does on the street in
a very simple tailored suit Cor dress
either blue or gray to match.
DEAR MRS. POST: Will you please
~ tell me the duties of house
keeper. I am finding it necessary a.
the age of As to earn my living. The
one field in which l feel myself equip
ped is in running a house. MY nus
band was in public life and for morf
than 20 years I have had big house
(seven servants) and have done mucf
entertaining. I have done all my mar
keting personally have never had serr-
ant trouble and have never eXceede'
nv budget But have never employee
a housekeeper and do not know luS'
what such duties entail. Does house
keeper always live in har employer
| house? What is visiting housekeeper!
| Answer-The visiting housekeeper
| comes each morning for as long as
she is needed She does the mar
keting and inspects the general Work
| of the house. She usually engage
and always directs the servants, and
orders the meals Visiting housekeep-
ers often take care Of two or three
houses. The resident. housekeeper de-
votes all her time to the house II
/ which she lives. She has her owl
bed room and bath and sitting room
She has charge of the entire runnint
Of the house-sometimes directly
sometimes by cooperation with the
! cook and butler, who in very big house
are usually in charge Of their oV1
departments. The housekeeper nevel
has charge of the children's nursf
nor of the lady's personal maid, no.
of the gentlemans valet, nor Of tn
! chauffeur. 1t is only fair to TEL
YOU that great houses such as these
are very scarce today-and growing
scarcer. The position Of workins
housekeeper in the house OF an invalid
| lady or Of widoWer with children
is necessarily one Of particular re-
quirement.

Let's start with the toothbrush

new brush now that fits into its own
handle instead of separate case and
is a grand little. space saver. The girl
in the photograph above is shown
with the brush inserted in the handle
ready for use. The brush section un-
screws just where it joins the large
tubular handle and when placed in
side and covered with a screw cap
that is perforated for ventilation the
whole thing is only 81 inches long
and may be slowed away in almost
no space at all. You can even slip
it into your purse if you find that you
forgot to put it in your bag.
The toothbrush is one of the we'll

both medium and hard round end
bristles and the cases are available
in six attractive colors, maize, jade,
rose, black, blue and red.

No. No. The little girl down

Rose Marie needs goat. I've

walks through the yard. She needs

some fun and she gets none. Shes

about nice children to play with,
about nice language to grow up on,
about sterlized food and furniture

gave would cure heap of troubles,
and the fun she gave the youngsters
would cure plenty others. There S
