List year some newspapers conducted cohuAPs of questions ud answers on the income tax. Learned ruthor'ties offered answers surrounded by much le>;a’. v utage, over which the perplexed |J taxpayer puzzled his head as best itAtaht. ( Last year's law was put tin.'ugh in haste, hot this year the blauk return is in very - much hct;<' shape, and seems clear enough ordinary cases. Space is left lor the wife’s return after each item, so that one blank can covet the income of both husband and

vife. 32

While many income tax payers arc not reconciled to this tax, and rgue that it is uufair, this is a couutrylirhere it pays to submit goodnaturedly to the will of the majoritv. The average man can not get much excited about the sufferings ol his neighbor on a $10,000 in-

come who is taxed $60 under the law.T/.yW

L IFE INSURANCE is playing an important part in human affairs to-day. As a medium for saving money and an investment furnishing protection to the family it stands alone. Millions have found life insurance indispensable in the hour ol trouble.

7Y/ZT PF/CF 0/ B/tEAD. The sensational rise in the price ofldour makes a higher price for bread inevitable. If the bakers do not advance the.price of the single loaf, they must reduce its size <>1 dilute its qu&lily For the poor immigrant who often pays not over ft per week for food, bread is the main dependence. He may have his kettle of soup . brewed from bony bunks of meat that no one else will touch, but this costs little and is merely an a|ij«tlseE. His long rolled loaf, serving lor several meals, is the main buckbone for his muscular task. When he acquires a family his board bill increases, but a household ol bread eaters lives cheaply. Yet a 25 to 50 per cent, advance is a blow. Mrs. Julian Heath, of New York. 1 resident of the Housewives 1 .vague, says that in this exigency more families should accustom liictuselves to the use of corn bread, the price of which has uot risen appieciably. Also much might be said of the value and health-

fulness of rye.

It is a singular fact that a great main well-to-<U> families always use corn and rye bread prominently, preferring their finror, while many poor families continue to stick to white wheat bread, even in •times of scarcity, and in spite of the fact that much of the nutriment

.f wheat is lost in the process of bolting. 'M

lu many old homes, corn Johnny cakt was a special treat tliat made the children's eyes sparkle. Served --teaming hot, it brought ! the comfort of summer sunshine on a wintry morning, and uts gol-

I Irii color made it seem almost like sponge enke.

Hasty pudding was another staple that the old timers would i piefer to the most fancy dessert your modem* cook could devise. White flour products will come high befpfp the new crop is on

i the market, and thrifty cooks will seek substitutes.

TIMES’ » Health Talks ° By a PKysIctan q mumps. One ol the commonest of the contagions diseases of children in Isle winter and spring, as well as fall, is mumps. This disease is one tliat is looked upon very lightly by most people, and although, io Until, it 16 a mild affection tases, yet occasionally it may cause serious complications. This (act, ) the occurrence of intense suffering in tome, is sufficient reason to guard our children as far as possible from infection. Mnmps occur mostcomniouly between the ages of fire and fourteen, although adults sometimes become affected, in whom it may cause quite painful and serious complications. Mumps is described as ai ■nation and swelling o I the parotid glnnd, the aaliva-eecreting gland which is locaied in front o! and beneath the ear. Hie period of Incubation, that it the lime elapsing between ezpoeur first symptoms, ranges fiom fourteen up to twenty-one day*. Tlie contagion may be spread by one even before the first symptoms, .which are pain and swelling of the jaw. Close contact it usually necessary to convey the contagion, although it is remotely possible for a third person lo spread it. The infection may be transmitted to others several days after the symptoms have all disappeared. Although second attacks of mumps are rare in tlie tame individual, yet tael cases have been known to occur. The common symptoms, pain and swelling on one or both aide* of the face, first appearing in front of the ear, accompanied by moderate fever, last fiom aeven to ten day*. In some cases the symptoms are very alight, tlie child complaining ol very little inconvenience, while in others Uie symptoms are quite severe, causing such intense pain upon chewing or swallowing Uiat a child will refuse food, leaving the sufferer oftentimes pale and weak, and therelore more euscepUble to develop other diseases' Umt may be prevalent. A case ol mumps is on record occurring in a man ninety-nine years of age, Uie paUent

dying.

Among the complications reported are deafness, paralysis of one tide of the face, and inflammation of the kidney (Bright’s disease). In view of Uiese possibilities, there is no jastificaUon in not exercising all proper precautions to prevent the spread of iufecUon, especially to delicate children. Deliberate exposure of a child to any disease, even as light as mumps, is never justified on the theory of “ Oh, they have to hare it sometime, and they oiighl as well have it now and be over with it." 6uch ideas, common enough in the past, aud based on ignorance, are gradually disappearing, loading to the saving of many useful lives and a inore vigorous Young America.
