Washington, Aug. 3.—Income
tax returns were filed by 3,472,-
890 persons, about 3 per cent of
the population,“for the calendar
year, 1917, according to final re-
ports just completed by the
bureau of internal revenue-
They showed total net income of
$13,652,383,207. The increase
over 1916, before the Idw was ex-
pandedf to meet war expenses,
was 3,035,854 returns and $7,353,-
805,587 in net income, the former
being so much greater compar-
atively because the extension of
the law took in small incomes
previously exempt. Taxes paid
totaled $675,249,450, an average
of $368.56 per individual or 6.03
per cent of the income. Returns
were made oh 1,640,758 incomes
ranging from $1,000 to $2,000,
and ranged in the hundreds of
thousands up to $25,000,000.
There? were 30,391 incomes be-
tween $25,000 and $50,000; 12,439
returns from $50,000 to $100,000;
3,302 from $100,000 to $150,000;
2,347 from $150,000 to $300,000;
559 from|$300,000 to $500,000; 315
from $500,000 to $1,000,000, and
141 over that figure.
A notableffeature of the report
was the showing that while there
were 1.296 incomes over $300,000
in 1916, the number was reduced
to 1,015 in 1917. The million
dollar incomes decreased from
206 to 141 and the decrease in
the amount reported by persons
in that class was $147,537,000.
The million dollar men, however,
paid more taxes than any other
class, contributing $109,424,999
to the government out of $306,-
835,914 in income reported. Per-
sons with income of $2,000 to
$3,000 paid the smallest amount
of taxes, $9,097,378 on returns of
$2,461,137,000.

said that she did not need to marry.
She had a parrot/that swore, a

A Traveling Man’s Experience
You may learn something form
the following by W. H. Ireland, a
traveling salesman of Louisville,
Ky. “In the summer 1888 I had
a severe attact of cholera morbus.
I gave the hotel porter fifty cents

reported but Ohio came fourth in
the number of taxable incomes.

In the good old days when a
boy got up in the morning he
didn’t have to fill the radiator of
a Ford with water and crank it
when his daddy was ready to go
to town. No, siree! All he had
to do was to crawl out of bed at |
sunrise, grease the . buckboard <
and walk two miles across a
patch of stubble for the mules
Of course the backs of his heels
would generally be popped open
and it would make him flinch a
little when a straw speared him]
in a tender place. But that, was
all right. He could molify his
feelings by belting one of the
mules in the side with a rock.
Another thing we didn’t have
to do in those days, either, was

The liver acts as a guard over
well-being, sifting out the cinders and
ashes from the general circulation.
A blockake in the intestines piles
a heavy burden upon the liver. If
the intestines are choked or clogged
up, the circulation of the blood
becomes poisoned and the system
becomes loaded with toxic waste,
and we suffer from headache, yel-
low-coated tongue, bad taste in
aouth, nausea, or gas, acid dys-
pepsia, languor, debility, yellow skin
or eyes. At such times one should
take castor oil or a pleasant laxa-
tive. Such a one is made of May-
apple, leaves of aloe and jalap, put

Pierce, nearly fifty years ago, and
