SCALE FOR INCOME TAX RETURNS

; Here's a simple scale to help people who are haying trouble with their income tax returns. The law prorldes that the returns and the first quarterly payment must be in by March 15. A single person is allowed exemption on an income of $1,000, but must pay 6 percent on all earnings or other Income, above $1,000. A married person, man or woman, is exempt from all taxes up to $2,000, and for each child has additional exemption of $200. Thus if you have one child ' in your family and an income of $2,199, you are exempt from tax. ' .. ' v" , Your tax is based - solely on the amount you received last year. Your income may have been in the taxable class so far as weekly pay is concerned, but if you did not work all the year, or were paid a lower rate part of the time, so that your total Income is below the figures given, you do not have to pay tax.

While your Income may not be In the taxable class you must make a return showlnc what it was, if it Is

hll.OOO or more. Below is a scale of I Incomes less than $5,000.

CONKEYTORIALETS SAFEGUARD YOUR HEALTH The fundamental reason for the existence of a drug store is because of the fact that it is a place which makes a business of supplying the public with standard drugs, medicines, and preparations, and the compounding of physician's prescriptions. : From these facts it is manifestly unjust both to the public and the registered pharmacist alike to allow the unqualified to direct the activities of a drug store. The State of (Indiana requires that a drug store be conducted by a Full Registered Pharmacist only. An Assistant Registered Pharmacist may be left In charge of store only during meal hour and during said meal hour said Assistant Registered Pharmacist cannot fill a prescription. It Is an should be the ultimate concern of the State to accord everyone the proper protection in the dispensing and compounding of medicines. The State law requires that this work be done by qualified pharmacists who have had proper training and have passed an examination. Non-Compliance with these requirements is not only an open and flagrant violation of the State Law and thereby menacing the health of you and yours, but is a gross injustice to the Legitimate Druggist who employs Graduated Full Registered Pharmacists at salaries commensurate with their ability. Moral Patronize the Pharmacist who employs competent help and thereby safeguard the priceless health of you and yours. RECONSTRUCTION Now that the war is over one hears much talk of "reconstruction.' Honestly now, isn't all the reconstruction America needs just an honest buckling down to work? Let those who were builders before the war turn to building now; let those who were painters turn to painting but in any event let us all turn to work and reconstruction will reconstruct itself. THEREFORE when we solve the problems left us by the war, let us not forget what we are striving for. As we reconstruct the temple we're to build; Let us bear in mind that future strife must cease And consecrate our work to lasting peace, That the full hope of our vlct'ry be fulfilled. PLAN NOW FOR POSTERITY. OPTIMISM Optimism is the keynote of the business world for 1919, a year that will live in history as the most remarkable since the world began. History repeats itself. All previous wars have been followed directly by periods of unusual commercial activity and widespread prosperity. 1919 will be no exception provided you do your share in making it a prosperous year. When you get in a tight place ' and everything goes . against you until it seems as if you cannot, hold on a minute longer, never give up; for that is just the place and the time that the tide will turn. Harriet Beecher Stowe. . Thrift is such a simple thing and it means so much. It is the foundation of success In business, of contentment in the home, of standing society. Russell Sage. . Are you able to save money? It not. drop out. You will fail as sure as you live. You - may not think so. but you will. The seed of success is not in you. James - J. Hill.. . . It is good to have money and the things that money, can buy; but It's good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you baven't lost the things that money can't buy. Lorimer. Dont be content with doing only your duty. Do more than your duty. It's the horse who finishes a neck ahead who wins the race. Andrew Carnegie. "Life is like baseball: The hits you made yesterday won't win the game today." - "Keep your temper1 nobody else wants it."; ...

'Ad man tells us that several people had been asked recently what had become of Conkey's and their Ads?' Not one of them could give the desired information altho a few seemed to recall the name.
