Irisnot permitted in Vermont to the rich,
and notably the bondhoders, to escape the
full force of the assessment for taxes, and it
would be but just to see the same Iron
clad" statutes everywhere. An exchange
says; In Vermont it is impossible to escape
the payment OF taxes on property, because
the legislature has passed law which
seems to be iron.clad in its nature. The
taxpayer makes the usual return of all his
property, but this return must include a
detailed statement Of all debts due him, to-
gcther with the bonds, stocks and mort
cages held by him, and his return is to be
bolstered up by an iron.clad oath, Under
this law the taxable property of the state
has gone up from one hundred millions to
one hundred and sixty-threc millions of
dollars. The state has clearly shown that
she intends to educate her people up to the
doctrine that there is nothing certain but
death and taxation"

Two Doc Stories,

A guano ox-cart stopped in front OF
the postoffce at Dublin, Ca, and the
driver left the team in charge of large
black dog. Presently one of our enter
prising town COWS dragged out of the
cart bag of corn and a bundle of fod-
der. The dog few out, took the bag
from the cow, dragged it under the cart,
went back and protected the fodder till
the driver returned.
Mr.. A. L. Harrison, of Columbus.
Ga, has a young Newfoundland dog,
which is very sagacious, considering he
has had little or no training. Yesterday
morning gentleman tied his horse to
one of the posts near the sidewalk in
front of the store. AS soon as he left
the horse, the dog Rollo reared on his
hind feet and, with his teeth, united the
knot and led the horse out into the street.
The horse was brought back and tied and
the dog repeated the same thing. In the
afternoon the horse was tied in front of
the store again and as soon as the dog
discovered him he proceeded to unite
him again and was leading him into the
store to the proprietor, when he was
stopped. Rollo does not intend that the
riders shall hitch their horses too near
the store door.

WHAT TO EAT, AND WHEN.

When 4 piece of land is exhausted of
the element which is the principal ia
gredient of certain crop, that ingre-
dent must be supplied, or the crop Will
fail in quantity and quality; hence the
thrifty farmer ascertains the wants of
the soil, and supplies it with the needed
manure every year. The human body
is exhausted of its elements day by day,
and day by day must these elements be
supplied by eat and drink; but the re-
CURED proportion of these elements
changes with the seasons, with the tenn
perature of the weather; and he who
eats the same in quantity and quality in
July as at Christmas will die In month.
because the adult eats for two reasons
to warm and to nourish. All food con-
tains two chief principles-carbon, to
keep from freezing; nitrogen, to keep
from furnishing. The proportion of
these elements varies with the food.
Those who work great deal require a
great deal of nourishment-of nitrogen,
for it is the flesh forming principle.
Those who are exposed a great deal to
