BOUND TO KEEP PACE.

There are hardware men in Detroit who
keep cook-stove at the store door as a
sign, and that the stove may not be in
jured by rust they paint it over. The
other day one of them who had stove
with red legs, white covers and blue
top secured an old farmer for customer.
The farmer stipulated for stove "just
like that" and ordered it sent home by the
team of neighbor. A stove the size and
pattern was selected and sent away in
good shape, and all was lovely until the
next day. Then the farmer and his wife
came in with their own team, having the
stove in the wagon. The husband held
the lines while the wife entered the store
and remarked:
when we buy certain kind of stove
we don't like to be put off with an
other"
why, madam, isn't that stove alright"
asked the man that sold it.
mo, sir, it isn't! you sold my old man
stove with red legs and white covers, and
a blue border around the top, and that
one out in the wagon is nothing but a
scrub-looking old black stovel"
"Why-why-" he tried to explain,
but she waved him around and declared:
"We're old folks, and we live out among
the frogs and owls, but we keep pace
with the styles just as much as any one,
and you can't palm off any scrub stoves
on usl"
The men could hardly lift ten pounds
apiece as they exchanged the nicely pol
ished stove for the one with red legs, but
the old lady thought it was because they
were so mad.
"There-that stove has got some tone
about !" she muttered as it was loaded
up. IT don't want to appear capturous
but if style demands d red-legged stovt
then go in for the gorgeous with the res
of 'em, and I'll gild the stove pipe te
bootl"--F,e Pes. ...

TEE COUNTRY KOK CATS.

Diana or Pasht, as that goddess was
called in Egypt, was the tutalary deity of
cats. Various reasons are assigned for
this curious selection of the cat as the ami
NAL worthy of being dedicated to the
moon. We find that according to Plutarch,
the cat was not only sacred to the moon,
but an emblem of it; and that figure of
cat was fixed ON . sistrum to denote the
moon, just as the figure of frog on a
ring denoted q man in embryo. And fur
ther, it was supposed that the pupils of
cats eyes always dilated as the moon got
toward the full, and then decreased as
the moon waned again. This has been
given by some of the reasons why cats
were held sacred to the goddess Diana.
The Egyptians treated cats with unusual
care and attention during their lifetime;
hence it is not surprising to find that the
death of cat was regarded as family
misfortune, in consequences, Of which the
household went into mourning, Their re-
gret for the defunct cat was displayed then
by the curious custom of shaving off the
eyebrows before attending the funeral,
which they invariably conducted with great
pomp. Previous to interment, the bodies
of these pets were embalmed, and then,
when it was possible, conveyed to the city
of Bubastis, where they were placed in the
temples sacred to Pasht.
The willful destruction of a cat In Egyptis
looked upon as very serious ofsnse even
now; but in the good old days (for cats) at
Bubastis the offense, even supposing it te
have been accidental, was punished with
prompt severity. The unfortunate Offend
err as in the case of a Roman soldier
whose story is told by Diodorus, was taken
prisoner, tried, condemned and sentenced
to death. Puss had fine times of it in
those early years of superstition and ami
NAL worship; but, unfortunately for her,
other people formed very different notions
concerning her character and occupations
generally; for in the middle ages cats got
the reputation of being the only animals
that il-famed old women could induce to
live in their houses; consequently they
naturally became associated with witch
craft and all that was diabolical and un-
canny by the credulous people of these
times.

gress. It may be considered, to some extent,
~ o compromise measure to which the East
ern members will not make serious opposi-
ton. Under the working Of somewhat
analogous law, In force some years ago, the
States Of New York, Pennsylvania and Massa-
chusetts paid far more than one-half OF the
whole income tax OF the country; 1t is prob
able that they will pay an even larger pro-
portion to-day. OF the Southern States, Lou
isiana was the largest contributor to this tax.
The first section Of this internal revenue
bill also provides for reduction OF the tax
ON tobacco from twenty-four TO sixteen cents,
reduction OF one third. twas thought that
these two provisions taken together would
relieve the South and West, In the matter of
taxes, at the expense Of the East The reve
nue. derived from the income tax will more
than supply the deficiency resulting from
decrease In the tax on tobacco.

one, and will save the people Of that State
tens Of thousands OF dollars annually
This newly created official is styled Public
Examiner, and Is paid q nominal yearly
salary OF $500. How much more money he
can make can readily be seen by an enumer-
alton Of his duties and powers,
The Public Examiner is nothing else but a
grand public inquisitor, a sort Of universal
investigator, governmental Paul Pry. He
exercises supervisory and examining powers
over every financial officer of the State, and
Of every county in the State; over the flnan-
cial management of all State institutions and
over all banking, savings and other corpora
tions created by State law. He is to visit
them at unexpected times, examine all their
books, accounts and vouchers, enforce prop
er and as far as possible, a uniform system
of bookkeeping in country and State offices,
SO that the Auditors and Treasurers books
will be q check on their mutual action; he is
finally empowered at all times to call for
statements under oath, etc.
The advantages of this office may be seen
at a glance. AS might be expected, there Is
an immense rush for 1t. Leading Minnesota
politicians have been heard to declare that the
governorship is a petty position compared
with that Of grand inquisitor, and to predict
that the lucky man who gets this Office will
come out OF 1t great, rich and powerful. The
position Of public examiner Of Minnesota Is
undoubtedly the best position in the United
States Our collectorship of customs does
not begin to compare with 1t.

The income tax bill rs finally prepared by
the Committee on Ways and Means turns out
to be quite different affair from the bill
originally proposed on this subject. few
week ago, so the Cincinnati Enquirer asserted
most positively, an income tax bill had been
drawn up. which placed graduated tax On
incomes; 3 per cent on all incomes between
$4,000 and $1,000; per cent on incomes between
$4,000 and $4,000, and per cent on incomes
over $4,000. This bill would probably have
served the purpose for which 1t was designed
the equalization of taxation In the different
sections of the Union by making the rich East
pay its proper share towards the support Of
thegovernment. Theincome tax was designed,
OF course, TO make the richer classes, and par
hcularly the Eastern hondholdefs, contribute
their quota Of taxes. The bill, however. offered
to Congress some two or three days ago by
the Ways and Means Committee, is quite
different from the original one proposed; it
laws an equal tax of per cent on all incomes
over $4,000. Such a bill will bear lightly on
the miilionaires and prove burden only to
the middle classes.
The tax Is laid on every species Of income;
interest upon notes, bonds or other securities
OF the United States; gains, profits, salaries,
including those OF all government officials
and army officers; profits on real estate sold
during the year, II the real estate was pur-
chased within two years preceding the sale;
profits on the sales of cattle, sugar. ETC., on
all the products of an estate: in fact, on
every species OF known income. The only
are the salaries OF the Presi-
dent, United States judges, State officers, the
Of soldiers or sailors. Of United
States service and the income of foreign con-
suls. All attempts to evade this law. all false
swearing as to income, etc, are punished by
j fine OF $4,000 for each offense.
1t is thought that the bill will pass Con-

The movement In favor of repeating the
tax ON the circulation Of State banks s going
rapidly forward. The Board OF Trade Of Nash
vile was the first commercial body In tho
South to speak out on this subject. In defense Of
the old financial system, under which the en-
tire Union prospered. The resolutions adopt
cd by this board were sent TO the various
commercial bodies OF the leading Southern
cities, with request that they also express
their views on this question. which had with
In very short time. become leading finan-
cial ISSUE The Board of Trade of Mobile re-
piled to this invitation Tuesday, by indorsing
and ratirying tie Nashville resolutions, and
requesting the members Of Congress from
Alabama to vote for the bill repeating the tax
lately introduced by Mr.. Harris. Of Tennes-
see. 1t behooves New Orleans. rs the leading
commercial city Of the South, TO express its
opinion on this subject ut once. New Orleans
can do this without hesitation, because II has
thoroughly tested the state bank system !;
because commerce and business were carried
on through the State banks. in its most pros
porous days.
There can be no doubt that return to the
old system would greatly benefit New Or
leans; would bring 1t capital, build up Its
trade, restore confidence, benefit bonds, and
prove beneficial In q thousand different
ways.
II any action is to be taken In this matter,
1t should be taken as soon as possible. Con-
gress will be- in session less than two months
longer. If we want this tax on the circula-
ton of State banks repealed, 1t would be well
to have an expression Of commercial opinion
upon this question in very few days. The
Eastern members OF Congress are willing to
vote for this measure, the New York Herald
says, because they think 1t the surest safe
guard against that unlimited Issue Of green
backs that the West Is always threatening
These Congressman are waiting for express
sions of Southern opinion on the subject be-
fore taking any action. Any Endorsement Of
this measure, therefore, on the part Of the
commercial bodies OF New Orleans would
probably carry ii through Congress, as 1t
would draw forth similar action by the
boards of trades of smaller towns and give
this measure that outhern support that is
necessary and sufficient to carry IL. New Or
leans has now an opportunity which will
probably never be offered 1t again. Of obtain
ing more capital and Of benefiting State bonds
by a simple expression of opinion on this sub
ject
