bachelors TO be Taxed iu France.
A tax is proposed on bachelors in the
next French budget. Tho preamble reads:
"Considering the growing decrease in the
population in France, it has become neces-
sary to impose a tax on all single persons
over years of age Of the male sex"
Some of the causes Of this decrease are
that no Frenchman under rs years Of age
can marry without the consent OF his
parents. This consent is invariably with
held if the girl is portionless. On the
other hand, if the girl be we'll provided
for, her kinsfolk will not only not let her
marry unless the mans marriage portion
be in proportion to hers, but they will
effectually prevent all possibility Of her
making the acquaintance OF a poor man.

The November MeteOrs.

The earth, as she swings her ponderous
bulk in her orbit, encounters about the
18th OF November the meteor zone. This
gigantic hoop or elipse consists Of q swarm
Of particles following Temples comet In
Its orbit. This unfortunate visitor from
the star-depths on arriving within the
Solar domain uuwarily ventured too near
the planet Uranus. The planet captured
the comet, and forced 1t henceforth to re.
volve within the boundaries Of the Solar
System, the event occurring probably
within the second century OF the Christian
era. The perihelion Of the comets orbit
rests on the earth's orbit where she passes
on the 18th Of November, and its aphelion
extends beyond the orbit Of Uranus. A
process Of disintegration is going on, and
the debris OF the comet and the swarm OF
meteors are gradually scattering through
the whole zone. only one-tenth OF which Ia
now filled densely with the meteor swarms.
The period Of revolution is about SO years,
and a grand display occurs only at these
intervals, when the earth crosses the
densest portion OF the zone. The last
memorable display was in 1966-67. The
next is expected in 1899. Observers on the
nights Of the 18th, 18th, 18th and 14th
will be sure to see q few meteors radiatine
from the constellation Leo, and there ID
always a possibility that an unexpected
number Of falling stars may make the
sheavens Respondent with their fiery trains.
