that for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1881, the national banks in the United
States paid into the treasury the enor-
nous sum of %, l16, 1872 taxes on cir
culation and deposits. Besides this, the
banks paid their due proportion OF local
taxation ON capital stock and personal

Perhaps the greatest contrast in
English society as compared with
American is that in the former a
woman's Importance grows with years,
whereas in the latter it declines. AT
a large English country house some
difficulty arose as to making room for
all the guests expected at dinner.
"Why, let those girls" Indicating two
pretty young ladies' take their
dinner at luncheon time," said an old
peeress, land come down to the draw

Lady Salisbury, who stands at the
head of the great society leaders in
London to-day, is fifty-seven; Lady
Derby about the same age, and many
others conspicuous as agreeable enter
tainers at the same period of life could
be cited. But here, even now, ladies
of such an age seem to deem them
selves shelved. 1t is great pity. A
woman of fifty has knowledge and ex-
perience which, if she be naturally
intelligent, can scarcely fail to make
her society congenial to men of sense,
whether they are young or old. 1t is
often remarked by clever Young fellows
that their pleasantest hours at London
balls are spent rather in talking to
agreeable mothers than in dancing
with their daughters. Nothing could
improve society here more than a de-
termination on the part of ladies of
mature age to keep well TO the front
and assert themselves.

She Wanted to Wear Socks.

"MalInda Jane gotsto cuttin' up
her didos around the harem yester-
day." said jones' boy, sand dad up
and told her II she didn't let up and
behave herself he'd pack her of to
the farm with the OF her six rebelious
critters"
whats the matter at your ranch
now?" queried Browns boy from
over Jordan.
"You see, Malinda is four on the
harem string and dad married her
for her beauty and shape; there was
not darn bit of celestial glory about
it. She's a proud spirited kind of a
thing and wanted to wear socks.
Darn a woman that wears socks,
said dad, 'and II ye ask me again
out of the ranch you go tomorrow
mornin!' Malinda Jane fred up
like a gobbler, then she spit in dads
face, called him John Taylor's fool,
aud yanked handful of hair out of
his hoary head. Whoopee, but wasn't
it fur; dad bore testimony to the
truth of this gospel by giving Malin-
da a kick in the stomach, bending
her up like grasshopper' Malinda
then got side wiper on the old man
and sent him to grass like a true
Christian martyr, then played the
beautiful church hymn on him. Joe
and Brig are Little Angels now with
broomstick accompaniment"
"Does your family dwell together
in unity this way much? Is there
great oneness every day in the fam
ily?" asked the Brown boy.
"Gobs of 1t. But Malinda goes to
the ranch to- morrow, and when her
affectionate husband puts her hus.
band in that carrot field to hold her
own against the other cattle, she'll
wish she hadn't asked dad for socks.
Socks don't build on the Kingdom
of God. Socks don't grow on the
tithing yard bushes. Socks don't
stand the racket of our everlasting
gospel"
And Jones boy and Browns boy
rubbed their noses together, lit their
cigarettes and parted.
