How To Pay Your Income Tax.
(Bureau of Internal Revenue.)
Poy your income tax, if possible,
by check, money order, or draft.
This is the urgent request of the Bu
reau of International Revenue.
More than 6,000,000 persons this
year will pay an income tax. The
total to be collected under the war
revenue act of October 3, 1917 ,in
individual income majority of these
payments will be small amounts. If
paid as requested it will avoid tne
necessity for the issuance of a re
ceipt, and save much time and la
bor. Taxes paid to deputies who are
visiting every county in the United
States to assist taxpayers in making
out their returns are sent to the col
lector of internal revenue of the dis
trict in which the taxes are collect
ed. Checks, money orders, or
drafts can be handled without diffi
culty. Cash has to be sent by reg
istered mail or by insured express. .
In the conduct of the war Uncle
Sam is beset with many difliculties.
You can vender one of his innumer
able tasks less difficult by paying
your income tax promptly, and by
check, money order or draft.
Would Hang 10,000 .
"We will not be a strickly free
people until 10,000 German propa
gandists in this State have been
hanged to telegraph poles and shot
full of holes." Howard Heinz, Fed
eral food administrator for Pennsyl
vania declared at a conference of
food officials in Philedelphia. Mr.
Heinz has just returned from a State
wide speaking tour. He reported
that the activities of the German
agents had been making serious in
roads on food conservation.
LEMONS BRING OUT
THE HIDDEN BEAUTY
Make this lotion for very little
cost and just see
for yourself.
12
An attractive skin wins admira
tion. In social life and in business
the girl or woman whose face and
hands show edivence of constant
care enjoys a tremendous advantage
over those who do not realize the
value of a healthy skin and a spot
less complexion.
At the cost of a small jar of or
dinary cold cream one can prepare
a full quarter pint of the most won
derful lemon skin softener and com
plexion beautifier, by squeezing the
juice of two fresh lemons into a bot
tle containing three oucces of or
chard white. Care should be taken
to strain the juice through a fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and re
move such blemishes as freckles,
sallowness and tan, and is the ideal
skin softener, smoothener and beau
tifier. Just try it!. .Get three ounces cf
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and
make up a quarter pint of this
sweetly fragrant lemon lotion and
massage it daily into the face, neck,
arms and hands. It naturally
should help to soften, freshen,
bleach and bring out the roses and
beauty of any skin.

TAKE "CASCARETS" IP 4
HEADACHY, BILIOUS.
AND CONSTD7ATED.
Best for liver and bowels, bad
breath, bad colds sour stomach.
Get a 10-cent box.
Sick headache, biliousness, coated
tongue, head and nose clogged up
with a cold always trace this to a
torpid liver; delayed, fermenting
food in the bowels, or sour, gassy
stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the
intestines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches
the delicate brain tissue it causes
congestion and that dull, throbbing,
sickeneing headache.
Cascarets immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undi
gested food and foul gases, take the
excess bile from the liver and carry
out all the constipated waste mat
ter and poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret to-night will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your
head clear, stomach sweet and your
liver and bowels regular for months.
