The toll amount received for personal services must be 1 returned as gross Income.' Direct exiensea Incurred in earning his com- ; pensatloa, however, are allowable deli (tactions. For example, a traveling J man selling on commission may deduct i his railroad tare and amounts paid for ; hire of Tehloles in calling on his cus- ( tamers as a "business expense." but ; not his hotel hoard, which is a personal ; or living expense. r t Salaries must be reported as Income (or the year in which they are received. I regardless of when they are earned, J Thus a man who Is paid on the 6th of I' the month and received his salary for r.tbe month of December, 1918, on January 6, 1919. will include the amount in his return for 1919. His ', salary for December, 1919. which is loot received until January 5, 1920, tneed not be included in his 1919 income, although it was entirely earned aunng max year, t Bonuses Must Be Reported .

Fleet Kirk, Furnishers' association, at the preliminary gathering of the National Association of Retail Clothiers here Monday. "It is a case of supply and demand," he said.

Thaw, and advanced the theory that Thaw was suffering from . a "brain storm" at the time he killed Stanford White. The name of macaroni originated from a Greek phrase meaning "the blessed dead." Scoffers and Doubters Why Let Prejudice Bind You to Life of Rheumatic Torture? Be fair to yourSelt, you sufferers from rheumatism, no matter what form. Get from your druggist a package of Rheuma, the guaranteed prescription. Use the entire bottle, and tf you dont think it has given you quick and satisfying relief, say bo, and yon can have your money back. Isnt that a fair offer? Then start the Rheuma treatment today. It's a reputable physician's prescription, altogether different from remedies usually prescribed- free from narcotics, and perfectly harmless. Rheuma acts on the kidneys and helps to force the uric acid from the swollen joints and other lodging places. It will please you In a day and make yon hopeful and happy in a week or money refunded. Rheuma has released from bondage rheumatic sufferers who thought nothing would give relief. It should do as much for you it seldom fails.

WHEAT PRICE WARNING, '- . Julius H. Barnes, U. 8. wheat director, has lust mailed a "warning of price hazards"! to the 43.000 holders of grain licenses, Issued from his officeThe price guarantee will be off next June and speculation in wheat will presumably be resumed by the brokers as Soon as the bars are down. With reference to our last wheat crop, and the surplus for export, Mr. Barnes says: ,.-. "Our total wheat crop exceeded that of 1818 and exports for the last six months are 83 million bushels less than. for the same period last year. Difficult finances abroad forcing utmost curtailment of purchases, will continue. Cheaper rye also will replace some wheat, and of rye there is 10 million bushels - available tor export, against 35 million a year ago, '. "Farmers, millers, and dealers (outside of the grain corporation) own and are carrying 437,000,000 bushels of wheat, against 299,000,000 a year ago, Seriously ponder on - this statement. After June 1 next the grain corporation authority to buy wheat at the guaranteed prices expires, and there after the security o fthat basis is withdrawn, "Price fluctuation always is follow ed by distress and loss, Wisdom dictates the reduction of commitments to the minimum required for the con duct of necessary current business." Mr. Barnes states that the eastern mills wiU probably fill all their need for "strong wheats" from Canada and the Argentines, and that California and the southwest will supply this want , to the northwestern mills, so that these may grind equal to last years' large production, "and still Clark Station, 0.

1,000 FARMERS START PURDUE SHORT WORK

LAFAYETTE. Ind, Jan. 13. More than 1.000 farmers and their wives ar rived Monday to attend the seven-' teenth annual farmers' short course, which opened at Purdue University at 1:30 Monday afternoon. Most of tho early arrivals were in the, opening classes ot the various sections ot the short course. The address by Dean J. H. Skinner was the feature ot the first day's program. All sections of the short course, which include home economics, horticulture, dairying, live stock, poultry, soils andcrops, got under way in the afternoon, with lectures being delivered by various members of the university staff. The work in the animal husbandry section was ot peculiar interest. K. P. Warner, representing a Chicago packing house, gave a practical demonstration ot butchering, and a hog was killed. Mr. Warner explained the proper method of sticking a porker to insure free and proper bleeding. This was followed by a discussion led by J. R. Wiley ot Purdue on Judging market hogs. "The day of the large hog on the American markets is undoubtedly past." said Mr. Wiley. "The American demand is tending largely toward light loin, small bacon cuts and small bams. The hog that will meet this demand is the good butcher hog weighing 175 to 250 pounds. The butchering hog must be in high condition, but not excessively fat. Another prime essential is smoothness,' tor such a hog dresses out a carcass that works Into smooth, well-shaped cuts." Liquor Thieves Active In North Dakota City (By Associated Press) SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Jan. 13. Laquor and not money or jewelry has been the aim of Sioux Falls thieves for the past three weeks. During this period, three cellars have suffered losses aggregating approximately sio.ooo, At one house, the thieves drove a truck down the alley, broke into the cellar and carried away many bottles of expensive whiskey and wine using the family clothes basket to carry the wet goods to the truck. The thieves worked so quietly that the owner did not discover the loss until he inspected his "private stock" the next day. Three nights later another cellar was robbed of a heavy stock of liquor. At this place, however, the night visitors generously left half a pint of whiskey. Several days later, a promi nent man of the city was called out of town on business. Certain unidentified men learned by telephone of his ab sence and that night the cellar was robbed of a valuable supply of liquor. Police officials have not been notified formally of the robberies, but they have heard the stories. fROUP Spasmodic croup is usually relieved with one application of v.7 VlCffSVAPORI fOUR BODYGUARD" -30f.

Berger, the German-Austrian Socialist of Milwaukee, would be made Ineligible to be voted on for membership in congress by the provisions of a bill introduced in the house of representatives Monday by Representative Ray Luhrlng of Indiana. .The application of . the proposed federal act Is general in its nature, but it strikes at Berger by forbidding the use on an official ballot of the bame of any man who has been excluded from congress, ."for giving aid and comfort to an enemy of this country." The bill gives jurisdiction ni such cases to federal courts. Berger who is a native ot Austria, has a long prison sentence hanging over him for violating the espionage act while America was at war; and the house of representatives has twice excluded him from membership after finding him guilty of giving aid and Comfort to Germany and the other enemy powers. To the discredit of the Milwaukee congressional district, he has been nominated tor a third time and will doubtless be elected again by a constituency which seems to approve of his disloyalty, unless the Luhrlng measure Is adopted and serves to prevent his name from going on the bal lot. 6URVIVORS OF SHIP LANDED (By Associated Press) PARI8, Jan. 13 The steamer Ceylon landed a number of passengers from the lost ship Afrique at LaPallice last night, according to advices! to the Matin.
