I S COMING TO McHENRY Advantages Of Sales Tax Reduction Told The average Illinois citizen would be granted more than $14 a year in tax relief under a sales tax reduction plan co- sponsored in the state Senate by Senator Jack Schaffer, R- Cary. Schaffer, who sponsored the 10 per cent reduction in the state sales tax along with other Republican Senators, said the proposal is more advantageous and workable than an income tax reduction introduced by Gov. Daniel Walker. He said a major advantage of the GOP plan is that it would provide $14 per capita in tax relief annually compared to $10 per person under the Walker proposal. This would mean the average family of four in the state would receive $56 a year in tax savings via the Republican package as op­ posed to $40 in Walker's bills. The sales tax cut, according to Schaffer, would also provide direct tax relief without con­ fusion or additional ad­ ministrative costs to the state. He noted no one would have to apply for the tax saving since it would be passed on with each over-the-counter purchase. Schaffer said Walker's plan would deny relief to about a million elderly and poor Illinoisans who do not make enough money annually to file a REGULAR MAIL AND AIR MAIL: To most military post offices overseas, packages must not weigh more than 70 pounds or be more than 100 inches in length and girth combined.

STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Consumers' Corner Furniture Needs Tailored Look Tailoring is as important to a chair or sofa as it is to a well- made suit. Whether the covering is a woven fabric or a plastic, how well it is tailored to the chair or sofa should be carefully observed. McHenry, unnecessary noise (peeling). James Huse, 3303 W. Lake Shore drive, Wonder Lake, driving while license revoked or suspended. The covering should fit smooth­ ly and evenly, and patterned fab­ rics should be carefully matched. It is important to check for straight seams. Button tufting is a bit more expensive but sometimes helps secure the tilling and prevents wrinkles. Coverings on foam up­ holstery tend to wrinkle if not securely attached. Look for these details: fabric cut and placed so the weave or grainline will look even; self decking with the fabric beneath the seat cushions the same as that used on the rest of the piece; straight hanging skirts that are lined; zippered cushions and re­ versible cushions so wear can be distributed; and arm caps to pro­ tect chair and sofa arms from soil.

Just separate bacon slices and place on jelly roll pan. Bake in a hot oven (400°F.) 10 minutes. Carefully pour off drip­ pings. Return to oven and bake 2 to 5 minutes longer.
