Herndon states that Lincoln used Tikes; a casual reference has been found to his use of DabolTs. Neither book seems to have been used to copy the examples that the boy wrote in his famous copybook. Apparently tlie Lincoln family did not own an arithmetic and he had to copy what he wanted to keep for reference.

Be- he may have had a copy In Kentucky before tlie family moved to Indiana, when he was seven years old; at all events, in a speech In New Jersey in 18G1 Lincoln said he got hold of it In tlie earliest days of his reading. This Is the book that tells the famous story about tlie cherry tree. There is a strong moral tone running throughout, but there was much to kindle the Imagination of a boy, such as the account of the capture of Trenton. Tradition says that Aesops Fables belonged to Lincoln in Keutucky. At any rate, we are sure he had It in his early years and probably could repeat most of it word for word. Tlie copy Iu this collection with Instructive Applications is and a Irint before each Fable. In tlie frontispiece the scribe Is seen surrounded by all the animals he has written about, and the little cuts above each fable show much imagination. Lincolns first law book he found In Indiana.

The tax on safe deposit boxes is still In effect. Acting Commissioner of Internal Revenue Wright Mathews made this statement today to clear up a misunderstanding on the part of taxpayers regarding the provisions of Section 606 of the Revenue Act of 1934 termin- ayng be ax on checks, The tax imposed by section 751 of the Revenue Act of 1932 on bank checks was terminated on January 1, 1935, by the specific provisions of section 606 of the Revenue Act of 1934. The tax of 2 cents does not attach to any checks, drafts or orders for the payment of money presented for payment on or after January 1 1935. The tax of 10 per cent on the amount paid for the use of safe deposit boxes imposed by section 711 of the Revenue Act of 1932, remains in force unless and until specifically repealed by Congress. There is no provision for the termination of this tax in the Revenue Act of 1932, or in any amendments thereto.
