APPLICATION is being made to the
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue by
manufacturers of cigarettes to assist
them in getting a reduction of tax.
The point they make is the rapid
increase of business. Six years ago
nearly all the cigarettes smoked in
this country were imported. Now
their production is almost entirely
our own, and large amount of cap
ital is invested in the business in the
United States. Congress will be
applied to for reduction of the tax
The number of cigarettes produced
in this country in 1879 was 238,
100000, from which $4,000 wal
derived. The production in 1885,
increased to 40S,O0O,000, with al
increased revenue of $4,000. Th'
business promises rapid annua
growth.

took it for granted that the work was
done by skillful. artistic hands on ivory
and other material, and could scarcely
believe their eyes when informed that
the color, as much as the form and out
line, was produced by the light of day.
Careful and minute investigation, how
ever, would then show that human
handicraft was not in it; for there were
touches and effects which natures
pencil of light could alone accomplish.
The contention is that photographs
colored by artists. however clever, must
be more or less monotouous, hard,
untrue to Nature and to the originals"
The process was discovered, it is said,
by French scientist, but has since
undergone Improvement by the pro-
Prietor of the patent for England. If
the new system prove an unqualified
success, the reward will not have been
reaped without much labor in the past;
for numerous attempts have been made
to induce the sun-pencil to fix colors in
the pictures it draws in the camera: but
chemical and mechanical difficulties
have stood in the way. In the new
process colors are said not only to be
faithfully produced, but protected from
the action of light by being passed
through a boiling solution, of which
gelatine forms the principal ingredient,
and that some of the photographs so
treated have been exposed for months
to the sun without being, in any wise.
affected by the ordeal. Unfortunately
the process is as vet unknown, as it is
likely to be for some time to come.

"It's an egg-beater." said his mother,
after an interval of embarrassed silence,
in which she vainly looked her husband
to come to the rescue.

astonishment.

is to put it to Sleep as he calls it, by

that he went to sleep before he missed
it; but I'll try not to let it happen again.
Wasn't it clever of him? He heard his

And the parents beamed fondly on
their darling, who appeared at this
juncture, fresh and smiling, with a

lips were pressed to hers, and tho clear

startling suddenness, as she turned to
the misguided parents.
How many times do you suppose

she inquired, sternly.
