An 1
By ROBERT McBLAIR.
Mr. Slmpklns gazed at the portrait
on the wall till his eyes filled with
tears. It was a portrait of his father.
Colonel Slmpklns. who had four times
lieen promoted for valor during the
Civil War and hnd died bravely on the
field of action. Mr. Slmpklns' throat
nched now for two reasons: First, he
reverenced and adored the memory of
his father; secondly, his age and his
eyes and his game leg wouldn't let him
go to war himself. And as he observed
the martial bearing and uncompromis
ing gnze of Colonel Slmpklns he saw,
In Imagination, the khnkl-clad lads of
the new generation marching forth and
crossing three thousand miles of sea to
fight, maybe die, for liberty.
Mr. Slmpklns peered around to make
sure that neither Bess nor John (who
were at the teasing ages of sixteen
and seventeen) were where they could
see him, then he straightened nnd
threw his right arm up for a salute.
But his gouty shoulder twinged, and he
groaned. He couldn't even salute.
"Damn !" said Mr. Slmpklns, and
with his other hand fiercely twirled his
white mustaehlos.
He turned and limped Into the li
brary and sat down Cfsaklly before the
mahogany desk on Which were lying
the blanks for his Income tax state
ment, blanks which he hnd rather
grumpily got from the Internal Reve
nue officer only that day after lunch
eon on his way home from the club.
Mr. Slmpklns' Income for 1017 had
mounted to Just about $15,000, nnd he
had been rather snappy on the sub
ject of taxes ever since he hnd discov
ers! that the more InCriUM a man hns
the greater the percentage of It he
pays In taxes. He could think of sev
eral men who, like himself, were mar
ried and had two children, nnd yet,
although their Incomes were nearly
half of his, they would pay only a
small fraction of the amount he pnbj.
He gloomily drew the blnnk nearer
nnd began filling In the Information
that It nsked for.
As Mr. Sttnpklni' Income was $1!,000
j he had to figure out the amounts pay
j nhle on each of the successive smaller
classes of incomes In order to arrive
at the total due from himself. He
I passed over the first class who must
pay taxes, that Is. single men making
Over 1.000. His calculation for mnr
I ried men then showed up as follows:
First, they pny 2 per cent, (under
the l'.Mfl law) on all Income over
$1 .000, deducting S'JOO for each of their
' children under eighteen years. In Mr.
j Slmpklns' case this was $212, which he
I put down In the "payable" column.
He saw next that, under the 1017
Inw, married men pay an additional 2
per cent, on all over $2,000 with Ihe
same allowance for children. This
added $2.12 to his "payable" column.
He then observed that for every
12,500 Jump In his income over $5,000
he had to pay a Surtax, the percentage
growing larger with each Jump. This
was $230 more added to his burden.
And on ton of all this came an "Ex
cess Profits" tax of 8 per cent, on all
"occupation" Income over $6,000, mak
ing $720 more.
The total, then, he must pay was four
teen hundred and thirty-four dollars.
"Whew I" exclaimed Mr. Slmpklns
angrily. "There's young Henry Wll
klns, who married Jake Johnson's girl,
he makes $2,000 and he doesn't pay a
cent of taxes. I guess this Is his war
as well as mine!"
Thinking of young nenry Wllkins,
he remembered that Mrs. Wllkins went
every afternoon to make bandages for
the Red Cross and that Henry, who
was a lawyer, was aiding the Local
Draft Board with Its questionnaires.
"Well," he admitted to himself,
"that makes a difference."
He thought next of Judge Wlllough
by, whose Income was about $.1,000.
"He only pays $20," commented Mr.
Simpklns, not quite so angrily this
time; and then a thought struck him
and he sat up rigidly In his chair.
Judge Wtlloughby's son had been
drowned on the Tuseanla when it was
submarined with the loss of two hun
dred soldiers.
"Judge Wllloughl'.v gave his son to
America," muttered Mr. Slmpklns.
He leaned forward suddenly and put
his face In his hands.
For n long time Mr. Slmpklns sat
very still In that position. There was
no sound in the library except the
ticking of the tall clock and an occa
atonal trill of laughter from the chll
dren skylarking upstairs. The square
of light on the carpet gradually with
drew Itself through the window, nnd
first twilight and then darkness settled
In about the quiet, white haired, some
times irascible old man.
Mr. Slmpklns was thinking things
which he would never afterward speak
of, he was thinking things that were
too sacred ever to be put Into words.
But some Inkling of his thoughts may
be found In his .rejoinder to Mrs.
Slmpklns when that placid lady came
In and turned on the lights, and asked
him whether he was ready fur dinner.
"Judge Willoughby's only son was
worth us much as fourteen hundred
and thirty-four dollars, wasn't he?"
Mr. Slmpklns demanded of her.
As his wife, who was not unused to
his superficial irrltatlous, vatched him
in mild astonishment, Mr. Sluipkins
limped out to the hall and took his
old felt hat and silver-headed cane
from the hat rack. Letting himself out
Into the foggy evening, he tapped his
way down to the comer, and mailed his
Income tax statement and check with
hi own hands.
"Now, fjatd be thanked.' said Mi.
Sintpkliis as the lid chinked shu' over
his missive. "I can do this much for
f country, anyhow."
