He Is of slight build, weighing hardly more
than a hundred pounds apparently, has a
broad, full forehead, gentle, kindly ex-
preston in his hazel eyes, soft lines about
his well-shaped mouth, ana merry dim
pie in each of his beardless checks. His
hair is nut brown and clusters about his
temples in wavy rnglGts. He is about
thirty years old and loved by all his friends
and dreaded as they dread death by all
violatorS of the law, for it is said that not
less than fifteen of this class of gentry
now lie under the daisies, vic

'Something quiet, said Carrie, "ior mamma

'Ob, it's easy enough. I'll say I'm Turk

Then I'll name three things good to eat that

around again and name something different"
So the three little heads pondered over good
things, till all declared themselves ready, and
Grace began:
"I'm Turkish merchant"
"What can buy of you?" asked Phil.
''No," said Carrie, ''that isn't right. What
do you sell?'
''Gooseberries Dates and Hulled Corn"
''Now I'm a Turkish merchant" said Phil.
'What do you sell?''

Whiskey, Tobacco and Other Per-
fumery.

The subcommittee of Ways and Means
has under con sideration, it is said, plan
for sweeping reduction of taxation. 1t
should hasten slowly. Doubtless some tax
es, amounting to considerable sum, may
with benefit be lowered or entirely be done
away with. But the articles mentioned in
the deliberations of the committee for places
on the free list or the reduced list do not
seem to most people to have any proper
claim for exemption, wholly or in part,
from the tax-gatherer The taxes on whis-
key and tobacco certainly should not be low
cred. These are emphatically articles of
luxury, and those who take delight in them
ought not to gu mble at the revenue derived
by the government from these prolific sour
ces. The tax levied ought to be as large as
can be easily and economically collected.
The burden may be heavy but the backs of
the asses who bear it can be readily accomo-
dated to the load. No worthy industry is
oppressed by the tax, and no class of con-
sumers will be really benefited by the re-
moval 1t does not seem possible that Con-
gress can undertake the removal.
There is another class of taxes that will, IL
is thought, be abolished. These taxes are
those of proprietary medicines, cosmetics,
perfumery, playing cards, and matches.
Except, possibly, matches, not one of these
articles should, as long as our National debt
continues in existence, be put on the free list
They all minister to the vanity or amuse-
ment of people and the users of them should
be made to contribute to the National treas
ury. There is no reason why perfumery
and cosmetics and playing cards should not
be taxed. They are luxuries. The
duty is easily collected and lightly borne.
Its removal would benefit no one.
Patent medicines are in the same case.
Indeed it would be a positive benefit
if some of them could be taxed out of exis-
tence. Even the tax on matches, though
large relatively to the cost of production, is
not felt to be burdensome, and the relief its
abolition would give to the consumer would
be so slight as to be scarcely recognizable.
1t is urged that this whole class of articles
yield but about $12,OOO,00O year. Well,
that is pretty sum, and lessons the Nation
al debt so much. 1t is worth holding to,
surely.
Congress should consider carefully this
scheme of the Ways and Means com mittee,
and tken reject it.

The SURGEONS KNIFE.
Wonderful Surgical Removal
of Urinary Stones from the Bladder
Successful.

Mr. Simeon Tetsell of Saugerties, N. Y. had been
treated for seven years by various physicians for
what they call Structure of the Urethra, without
benefit. He finally consulted DR.. David Kennedy, of
Rondout, N. Y. who found his trouble to be Urinary
Calculi or Stones in the Bladder. The doctor at
once removed the foreignbodies with the knife and
then gave his great Blood Specific, "Favorite Rene
dy'' to prevent their reformation. The entire treat
ment was eminently successful, and Mr.. Tietsell's
recovery was rapid and perfect.
While "Fayorite Remedy is a specific in all Kid
ney and Bladder Diseases it is equally valuable in
cases of Bilious Disorders, Constipation of the
Bowels and all the class of ills apparently inseper
able from the constitutions of women. Try it, Your
druggist has it, and its cost is only dollar bot
tie. The lucky man is he who puts this advice in
practice. Don't forget the name and address, DIR.

Mr.. Gregory told US that, going the other
day by steamer from Liverpool to London, he
sat by an old gentleman who would not talk,
but only answered his inquiries by mods or
shakes of the head. When they went down
to dinner he determined to make him speak If
possible, so he proceeded: You're going to
London, I suppose?" A nod. 81 shall be
happy to meet you there; whore are your quar-
ters?' There was no repelling this, so his

PROF. LEWIS SWIFT, Director OF the War
ner Astronomical Observatory in Rochester,
n Y, has been awarded by the Academy of
Science of Paris the Lelande astronomy
prize, given in honor of Joseph Jerome lie
Francais de Lelande, the famous astrono'
mer of the last century. The Lelande prize
is much coveted by astronomers-Prof. Hall
of the Naval Observatory, for the discovery
of the moons of Mars, and Alyira G.. Clark,
of Cambridge, Mass, for the discovery of
the companion to the dog-star, Sirius, being
other Americans who have woni it. The LIE
lande prize consists of 800 in gold or a
medal, at the option of the recipient. Swift
has discovered seven comets, six the last five
years, and the prize is awarded in recogni-
ton of his distinguished services to astrono-
my. He has received three gold medals
from the Vienna Academy, each of 500
value, and 5000 from II. H. Warner. This
makes total of $1,000 won by Swift in
prizes in astronomical discovery the past
three years.

THE readiness with which Germany takes
up the cudgels for Austria in matter of al
legged Russian encouragement of the insur-
rection in Herzegovina and Bosnia only
serves to confirm the thoroughness of the
German and Austrian alliance. The Ger
man Minister at ST. Petersburg wasinstruct-
ed by Bismarck to ask the Russian Govern
ment for an explanation of the speech Gen.
Skobeloff was reported to have made in fa-
vor of Pan-Slavism. On the reply of the
Russian Secretary that he knew nothing of
such speech, the German Minister, treat
ing it as an evasive answer, announced that
his recall might ensue if Russia appeared in
any way to support the insurgents against
Austria. The news comes that, acting un-
der this pressure, Russia has informed
Prince Nitika that he need not expect any
assistance. 1t nevertheless remains fact
that Russian subjects are giving substantial
encouragement to the disaffected Slavs.

THE investigations into the condition of
the schools of Cincinnati disclose the aston
ishing fact that twenty-five per cent. of the
girls and eighteen per cent. of the boys were
forced to withdraw ON account of ill-health,
and that of this number thus withdrawn
ninety-nine per cent. were classed as in
good health at the time of their entering,
and that since leaving The school large per
cent. have recovered. The Vermont Chron-
icle affirms that the high-pressure examining
process is working like results in that State.
That journal declared from the personal
knowledge of the writer that "a large num-
ber of cases of physical weakness, life
long suffering, insanity and death, are clear
ly traceable to this high pressure principle
in the schools" A Manchester, n. H., pa
per affirms that the brain-forcing process in
schools in that State is producing an invalid

The:Magic Flute.
Ian the Year Round.l


The most wonderful instrument OF the magi-
cal orchestra is described in a Hessian legend,
recorded by the Brothers Grimm. A man kills
his brother while they are out hunting, and
buries the corpse under the arch of bridge.
Years pass. One day shepherd crossing the
bridge with his flock, sees below little white
bone, shining like ivory. He goes down, picks
it up, and carves it into mouthpiece for his
bagpipes. When he began to play the mouth
piece to his horror began to sing of its own ac-
cord: "Oh. my dear shepherd you are play
ing on one of my bonesl my brother assassi-
mated me. and buried me under the bridge"
the King, who put the mouthpiece to his lips,
when straightway the refrain began; "oh, my
dear King you are playing on one OF my
bones; my brother assasslnated me, and buried
me under the bridge" The King ordered all
his subjects to try in turL the bagpips. From
mouth to mouth the instrument passed to that
of the fratricide, and then it sang: "Oh, my dear
brotherl you are playing on one of my bones;
it was you who assassinated me; and the King
caused the murderer to be executed
