m,000,000 Gallons of

Liquor in Bond on Jan lb

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6. Estimates Of $6,000,000,000 as the yield of the present revenue law for the first twelve months of its operation will be closely approached If not fully realized. Internal Revenue Commissioner

Roper said today in his annual report.

Payments of the first two installments, March 15 and June 15, brought

Into the Treasury a total of $2,600,783,000, Mr. Roper said, while reports already in hand of the third Installment Payable Sept. 15, fully support the ureau's estimate. Commissioner Roper said the tobacco industry had developed Into one of the greatest sources of federal revenue the total receipts from this source alone for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1919, being $206,003,000, an Increase of $48,800,000 over those of the preceding year. An enormous increase in the number of cigarettes manufactured was

v thfl rPp0rtSf the total for the

last fiscal year being approximately ik'tr- tlmos larger than in 1910. In tbt voir 8.500,000,000 cigarettes and 8,000,000,000 cigars were manufactur

ed, while in the last fiscal year the

manufacture of cigarettes had increas

ed to 45,500,000,000 while the number

of cigars remained practically sta

tionary.

Discussing constitutional prohibition

Mr. Rope said that probably 60,000,000

gallons of splritous liquors would -re

main in bonded warehouses when the

constitutional amendment becomes ef

fective January 16.

During the year ended June SO, approximately 99,000,000 gallons of distilled liquor were -produced from materials other than fruits, this figure

representing a decrease of near 75,"VXOO.000 gallons from the previous year's production.

The effect of wartime prohibition has presented a problem which is causing revenue officials "serious embarrassment," Mr. Roper said. Holders of heavy stocks of liquor in bond were forced, under provisions of the last revenue act, to pay an additional tax Sept. 15. The law closing the saloons for the period of the war has left those interests with their products and without means of obtaining money to make the payments, he said. "Under 'the law the discretion of the bureau is limited to extending the time for payment of these taxes seven months." Mr. Roper explained. "Serious embarrassment has resulted as to the course of action which should be taken in these cases to protect the interests of the government without im

posing undue financial hardships on the taxpayers which presumably were not intended by congress." The report revealed a menace in Illegitimate ttafflo In drugs between this country and Canada an J Mexico. Mr. Roper urged that some temporary arrangement be established, which would mit a stop to this smuggling.

Expenditures of the Bureau during

the last fiscal year, Mr. Roper said, were $20,573,771, an Increase of $12,-

003.214 over the previous nscai year. On this basis he said. It had cost the government 0.543 per cent to administer the revenue 'laws and collect the second greatest tax bill the nation ever has laid.

"I feel it my duty to write you a letter of thanks for your wonderful Peterson's Ointment. I had a running sore on my left leg for one year. I - began to use Peterson's Ointment three weeks ago and now it is healed." A. C. Gilbrath, 703 Reed Street, Erie, Pa. I'd rather get a letter like that, says Peterson of Buffalo, than have John D. Rockefeller give me a thousand dol- - lars. It does me a lot of good to be pable to be of use to my fellow man. For vears I have been selline

Now Declares That Every Sore is Healed and Eczema Disappeared Entirely Since He Took Dreco, the Great Herbal Remedy "I had bad blood with sores all over my body and a breaking out on my hands, and arms, which looked like eczema. It Itched so bad I would

wake up during the night scratching"

are the exact words of that well known and highly respected man, Mr. George Arnold of South Walnut St., Muncie, Ind.

I have lived tere eleven years,

own my own blacksmith shop and am

known to thousands of local citizens and they will believe me when I say I would not take a thousand dollars for getting rid of this awful eczema. In addition to having' bad blood, my liver wouldn't act well which gave me dizzy spells, dull drowsy feeling; my nerves were shattered, I couldn't sleep sound and my appetite was off. "I have been taking Dreco, the new root and herb remedy, and it is remarkable to see the change in me. My skin Is smooth with not a sore on it, the itching, burning eczema is all gone. I never have dizzy spells, sleep sound and my appetite is improved so much that I have gained four pounds and fetel better than in the past several years. Dreco has certainly done me worlds of good." Dreco is composed of the juices and extracts of many different roots, herbs, barks and berries, which act on the stomach, kidneys, liver and bowels and purify the blood. It relieves constipation, prevents gas forming in the stomach, Increases the appetite, insures sound, refreshing sleep, banishes catarrh of the head and takes the pain out of rheumatic Joints. Mr. Powers, the well known Dreco expert, has headquarters at Thistlethwaite's Drug Store, 6th and Main
