A THOUGHTFUL WIFE.-A friend
says he has a dear, loving little wife,
and All excellent housekeeper. On
her birthday she moved her low rock
ing-chair close to his side. lie was
reading. She placed her dear little
hand lovingly on his arm, and moved
it along softly towards his coat col
lar. lie felt nice all over. He GER
tainly expected Il kiss. Dear, sweet,
loving creature AN angel! She
moved her hand up and down his coat
sleeve. "Husband," said she. "Wlat,
my dear?" q" was just thinking"
"Was you, my love?" 81 was just
thinking how nicely this suit ofclotEes
you have on would work into a rag
carpet" He says he felt cross all day,
the disappointment was so very great.
Cracked dishes, says the Journal of
Chemistry, absorb oils and fats from
the various kinds of food put into
them. These fats soon become de-
composed in the pores ofthe dish, and
no amount of cleaning can remove the
n~auseating and poisonous deposit.
The peculiarly unpleasant taste some
times noticed in pie crust is is caused
by baking it upon old cracked dishes,
from which it absorbs the rancid fat
left by former bakings.

Preparation Of Compound
Extract Buchu.

The component parts are BtjCHII

NODE OF PREPARATION.-Bucbu- in
vaeuo. Juniper Berries, by distilIation,
to form a fine gin. Cubebs extracted BY
displacement with spirits obtained from
Juniper Berries, very little sugar is
used, and a small proportion of spirit.
1t Is more palatable than any now in
use.
Buchu, as prepared by Druggists. is
OF a dark color. 1t is a plant that emits
its fragrance; the action of a flame des-
troys this Tits active principle), leaving
a dark and g~lutinous decoction. Mine
is the color Of Ingredients. The Buchu
in my preparation prcdominates; the
smallest quantity of the other in yredi-
cts are added, to prevent fermentation
upon inspection, it will be found not t,
be a T~incture. as made in PharmacopGa.
nor is it a Syrup nd therefore can be
used in cases where fever or inflamma
ton exist. In this. you have the knowl.
edge of the ingredients and the mode OF
preparation.
Hoping that YOU will favor il with Il
trial. and that upon inspection it will
meet with your appreciation.
With a feeling OF confidence.

The Constitutional Convention has very
wisely adopted provision authorizing any
county which has adopted the township or
ganization to discontinueit by majorityvote
Of the people. This is a wholesome change,
The township organization, as it exists in
this State, hns been greatly abused; its
original purposes have been frustrated, and it
has been in too many instances converted
into mere machine for enabling the minor.
ity to govern and plander the minority.
This county is q melancholy Illustration
Of its worst results aud when the new con-
stitution is adopted the people Of Chicago
will very likely. relieve themselves Of the
unjust md expensive incubus. The con-
vention, howaver, should designate in some
general way the method whereby tie reo-
pic Of county may deliver themselves
from such bondage. To leave it discretionary
with m existing Bosrl Of Supervisors to
call IN election is equivalent to asking
them to vote themselves out Of Office. In
nino cases ont Of ten they will not do it,
however general may be the public desire
to get rid Of them.

1HE UESFEN TAY


There can be but one lnyful and booe.t
end in icvJing ta1, and that is for revenue
to support the government and to def,sy
expenditures for public purposes. Any ta1
levied in excess Of what is needed for these
purposes, any tax imposed for any other
object, is robbery under the forms Of Law.
The National Government has two systems
Of taxation; one provides for tar On
imports, and the other collects money by
what is Known as the internal revenue
syssem- From the former, the government
collected, in lsGs-o, SlG0,0o 900 iu gold.
But this amount OF revenue does not repre-
sent the amount Of ta1 paid by the people.
II NIL CAGES where the duty was collected
from articles not produced in the United
States, the nmount OF revenue collected
represents the actual amount paid by he
people. In most cases where the article is
grown. produced, or manufactured in tho
United States, as well as imported, the
price Of the domestic article is regulated By
that of the imported one; and the amount
OF tax collected from the consumer is
measured by the whole quantity consumed,
both domestic md foreign. Take the case Of
common woo9leu blankets, which ara made
in England, and are sold for % cents mn
pound IN gold Upon this article the law
imposes tux Of 20 cents per pound and 3,
per cent ad rasoren (g,ld). This tn1 il
equal to 81 cents pes pound, which. asded
to the orig1nu cost, freight, INSURANCE. and
premium on gold, renders it impossible tn
sell the English blanket in this couotry A.
less than GO cents per pound. It can bo
made and sold at q lsrge profit in the United
States fo1 so cents. The tariff operates ns
prohibition; not a pound Of blankets Of
that kind is imported, and the government
gets oot dollar of revenue; but the peopls
who purchase the 1o,0Oo, 600 pounds Of
Llaakets Of TINT grade pay the tax in the
increased price Of the blankets. Estimating
this ta1 at only 20 cent? per pound, they
pay So ,ooo, 600 tax annually to the blanket
manufacturers. The duty on foreign woods
prohibits the American woollen r1anufac-
turez making any bat the coarser goods; !;
for this be has an overstocke2 market Of
cheap wools, and all competition from
nhroad is cut off; he, therefore, pur-
chsses his principal material at 25 per cent
less than he did before the war, and sells
his blankets back to the wool-grower at m
advance Of 20 to 100 per cent.
