LOWER INCOME TAX OFFERING SOME SOLACE Substantial Reduction Will Save Average \Salaried- Man Twenty Dollars Casting a shadow over holiday Joys was the prospect of Uncle Sam’s an- nual.

The farmer pays the women for gathering the stones and sells them later to the district council. Now comes the truly Bucks spirit for saving the rate- payer's money. Instead of count- ing the “yards,” as they stand In the fields, the read authorities: have them all heaped into a cart - and removed to where they are heeded on the roads. Here they are dumped down by the road- side in immense mounds, Before the farmers are paid these heaps of flints have to be again meas- $ ured into “yards” by old toad- men. These roadmen are deserving fellows and it is up to the au-. % thorities to see that they are § kept employed. Perhaps that is the reason why the “yards” are not counted on the field. How Leprosy Has Dwindied. Most of the leprosy of the world {sin Asia and Africa, though it is found in South and Central America, in South Russia, Greece, Turkey and Spain and on the shores of the Baltic. The disease Still lingers in Norway and Iceland, and is not uncommon in Australia and Hawall, where it was supposedly carried by the Chinese. Tt was anciently prevalent in all the known world, and in the middle ages was extensively diffused in Europe. Every considerable city on ihe contl- nent had its leper house, and in Eng- land at one time there were 95 re- ligious hospitals for people thus afflict- ed. In the fifteenth century, however, it underwent a sudde and remark- able dimination and has now virtual- ly disappeared from civilized lands. Most of the cases in this country are of Norwegian origin and are found in the northern tier of our western states, How Sand Dunes Were Stopped. On the coast of Gascony there are points where the dunes push forward. more than. four yards, annually. 1780 the advance of sand upon the jntid of Bordeaux was the oécasion’ of despair to horticulturists and crop growers, and the engineer, Bremontier, made himself famous by converting the movable dunes into stationary ones. The task Was undertaken to form a wall against the sand Inva- sion by making a. palisade of the dunes a Nttle more, than a meter high und putting planks’ between each pair. When the sand swept over the boards it had to break up fits volume in the effort. and little by litle « stationary dune would form with an inetination of from 7 to 12 drgr: i hind tion of the se: sohind thls patisade $ J a wide zone of the hardier shrubs, How to Avoid Influenza. There is one point regarding influ- enza on which the medical profession is In agreement. This is stated by the Journal of the American Medical As- sociation as follows: eS “The pulmonary complications of inffuenza, whiqh make it so, serious a disease, may be avoided to a large ex- tent by rest.In bed at the onset of the iliness.. Influenza itself is not usually fatal, and general insistence on the importance of rest and warmth at the onset of the illness will accomplish more than all else in preventing com- plications and reducing fatalities from the disease.” Why He Was Answering. At a marriage service perforined in a Uttle country church, when the min- {ster sais, In solemn tones, “Wilt thou have this: man to be thy wedded hus- band?” instead of the woman answer- ing for herself, a gruff man’s voice an- swered “Iwill!” The minister looked up, very much perplexed, and paused. He repeated the sentence. and ggain the: same gruff .voice answered. "I. will!”. Again the minister looked up, when a man seated at the end of the first row said, “She's deef, parson, an’ I'm answerin for her!” How Wall: Shows Chargcter. ‘The rolling gait in walking shows genlality and jollity; the stiff, upright carriage, firmness, love of convention and lack of sympathy. The former is coinmon to.sailors and people who live a very free, out-of-door kind of Ufe, and “do themselves well;” the latter to ministers, people with the legal turn of, mind, and particularly the blue stocking type of women.
