OWED GOVERNMENT 1 CENT FOR 2 YEARS
lacoae' TaxfMiyer LearM Of Debt Aad Renib WHk AdifitioMiI : ContribiriioB in Verse
HompAtMul, April 19.—Were yon ever; thrMitened with jali Ix'cauiie ymi owed! one cent? i
No? Weil, don't go around bramfing ab6ut tt, for you rt*ti;t know yet wiiat ia coming to you. especially If you have been payinK an Income tax for the paat couple of yeans or more.
You aee. It taken the government In- t^otnm tax "expertui" anywhere frvjm two to fonr yeara to »co over the retnma, and whl)« you may have conirratulatcd your- •eif that you »ot away with il all right, tbere ia no telllni; hut you receive a j WU nome day for the Ijalance of your i income tax that you thought you had paid wveral years back.
Thla U exactly the case of Mliw H. Fulcher of Main ntreet, Hempstead, who is employed in the office c^ Doubleday, Page A Co. MlAn Fulcher sent to the Internal Revenue offlce the report of her 1919 tax, together wllh the money fcr payment. Much to her surprise the other day she received notice that Hhe was ono cent short, and that to avoid penalty and Interest il must be paid on or before April 23, 1J>21. The penalty is a heavy flne or imprisonment or both, so, needless to .say, MIbh Fulcher Im¬ mediately forwarded a check for one cent, which .she accompanied with the following verse:

The Infernal Offlce Is sorely grieved. And .so am I over mail Just received. My Income tax report, which to you I

WHY RESIDENTS DO NOT PATRONIZE MERCHANTS IN THEIR OWN TOWN
The following letter r«c^ivc<l today Is on exqmple of why »onw> people do not patronlw merchants in their own town.s. II is self explanatory.
22 Vernon Avenne Rocl<vlIle Centre, N. V.,
April ISth, 1921. Editor. The Dally Review.
r>ear Sir":—Apropos of your campalfrn to "Ruy At Home," I wish to call your attention to an experience I had this morninK with one of the local merchonts.
I wantM to buy two hundred and twenty-flve yartis of un¬ bleached muslin for the show I am doing for the Veterans of F^or- eign Wars—the first weel( in May.
When 1 approached the proprietor of the shop I had gone in to malcc this purchase, he told me mMslin was selling at twelve and a half cents a yard. I asiced him what the best price was for thc number of yards I' wunted nnd hc told mc "My priee is twelve ami a half cents a ydrd—and I wouldn't take anything oti if you lionght a million yards."
I told him t could buy a better grade—which was wider, at several retail establishments In town for ten and a half cents a yard. He Informed me thut I had lielter ko there to get It, as hc never changed a price once hc made It.
Needless to tell, I did get It In the city, and If this Is the attitude of one of the local merchants, on orders which, while not record breaking, arc at least larger than usual for such materials, I will hiivo lo buy the rest of my gooda In the clly, which, of course, is not what I would like to do.

GLORIOUS IMAGE OF BUDDHA
Idol In the "Lama City" la Worahlpod ^by Devotees With Almost ' ' Insane Devotion.
An 80-foot wooden image of Buddha standing on a golden lotu* flower with¬ in a sacred temple in "ThetLama City," reserved for residences of Mon¬ golian priests, is worshiped with nil the Insane devotion pojssible by the Mongolians. The great figure Is lieav- lly gilded, Incrusted with precious stones, and drnpiHl with silken clotbs.
When ths temple Is opt-nsd trt the faithful of the city ot Urga a priest at tho entrance gives each .person n few drops of holy wnttu- from a llithy Jug, arid the people, silent with awe, bathe their faces witli tlie fluid and prostrate themselves before th-e stntne, whose head Is lost in the shadows of
the temple roof. Tliey kiss its silken Iraperles. sotle<l by ttie lips of thou- tonda, and «mch one gathers a hand¬ ful of sacred dirt from flic temple poor.
From niches in the wnll hundreds jof tiny Buddlias gaze impassively on th« worshiping Mongols.-The scene of worship is described by Roy Chopman Andrews in Harper's Magazine as one ''intoxicating in Its barbaric splendor." The choras of prayers which rise nnd, fall In a meaningless half wild chant are broken by the clash of cymbals ¦nd the boom of sunkeskln drums, and one Is fully able to understand the religious fanaticism of the East when the people are seen nt prayer in one at these temples.

There are today but 2,500 persons In the SO Paumotu islands, separated from each other by hbout 40 iniles of water In the South seas, where 15 years ago there were more thnn 4,000. If equally distributed there would be but 30 persons to each Island, but on more than half of them no person llTes. Epidemics have cut the people down in throngv, nnd it Is the belief ot Frederick O'Brien, writing In the Century Magazine, that the time Is not far oft when tlie last Pnumotu WlU curse the white man for the gifts he may have brought. When Captain Cook made his survey of the Tahiti Islands there were 70,000 happy, healthy people, and today there sur¬ vive scarcely 2,000.

Ribbon Fish's Oddities.
"The ribbon fishes," said John T. Nichols, head of the deportment of p*. cent flshes nt tho Museum of Natural History, occordlnK to the New York Times, "nre perhaps thc least known of tlic larger niarlno species. They arc elonKnte, fliittoned from side to side with n mnnelike fln on the bock. Specimens nre W to 20 feet long, be¬ ing from 10 to 12 Indies deep, and nbout nn inch or two broad nt their thickest part. They have big eyes nnd smnll mouths."
Very few specimens ever come to light and these are usiiully washed up on some shore or nre found floating at tlie surface In n dead or dying con¬ dition. The lnrf?c»r ones are known to gi'ow to be 20 fc<>r or so in length nnd very likely attain a considerably greater size, bnt this is a mntter ot pure conjecture.

Lettuce and Conversation.
Lettuce to me is a most interesting sttidy. It is like conversation; It must be fresh and crisp, so sparkling that you scarcely notice the bitter in it. Like most talkers lettuce is npt to run rap¬ idly to seed. -Blessed is that kind that comes to a hend, and so remains, like a few people I know, growing more 8ati»- factory and at the eume time whiter in the center and more crisp. Lettuce, like conversntlon, requires a good deal of oil, to nvold friction, and keep the company smooth; a pinch of salt, a dnsh of pepper, a bit of mustard und vinegar, but so mixed tbere will be no sharp contrasts.
I feel timt I am with the beat society when I am with lettuce. It is In tbe select circle of vegetables.—Charles Dudley Warner.

la Wednesday Your Birthday? People bom on Wednesday (Mei^ cnry's day) will never make great for¬ tunes, but will hold high i>o8ltion% probably as judges. It will be a strugk gle Ull after middle life with them, and then a esmfortable position. They are In danger of at some time losing their liberty, and their marriage may prove nnhappy. They would make good orators, philosophers, doitors. astrologers, counterfeiters and vaga¬ bonds. They will be subject to heart disease, gout and nervousnesf, ar'« not llkdy to live much over flfty jeani. They will marry three limes, and Ihave >!pven>l children.
Strolling ilown tbe boardwalk at txMig Beech on a recent snnoy i^nday ftemoon. a guardian of the peace passed a party of four, among whom was an attractive brunette. "Toota" is her name. And she wouldn's take a dare.
t.'oyly she glanced at the 'cop. Her eyes played hai'oo wllh "Handsome Jerry." Thc "party passed hack and forth, and each time Jerry met it com¬ ing In the opposite direction. Glances Were exchanged, true vampire style.
"TOot.H" and her companions, tired of walking, betook themselves lo a com¬ fortable automobile nearby. Soon the uniformed Individual hove in sight .again. "Toota" was rlglil there with the latest means—I'nlm Iteneh style—of
acquiring nttention. She ujuhI them. And they talked for half an hour. Then the car started a«-ay. and the crestfalKeii policetnan in his natty uniform gazed wistfully at the vanishing' "Toots."
The car wns soon out of sight, but ere long it eame by itg^ln. This time aomethlng a little different happened. A gold bndge ftlittpred on the coat laj>el of the driver. It aufflciently resembled a deputy sherifr^ badge from whcr*^ tho cop stood, to cause him to move iin- eaaily. And It w.i.h, only n Utile gold affair, long since om of use. but it nerve* a purpcio. The omcei no longer gazed,nftor "Toots." He h;i.stene<l on his dreary way,
"Toots" won the bet. She "vamped" the cop.
