Taxed for Royalty.

The most glaring instance of national
idiocy IL that of Sweden, where the pOpu-
lation of only,4, ,578, ,90l allows itself TO be
taxed six million and ninety thousand
dollars for the support of the royal falni-
lies. The total revenue is only twenty
million, five hundred aud eighty-one
thousand, nine hundred and forty dol
lars, and thus nearly thirty per cent.
of the revenue goes towards the main
tenance of royalty. Denmark pays
three hundred and eleven thousand,
one hundred and five dollars tor the
luxury of a king; Greece, two hundred.
and sixty thousand, eight hundred and
ninety dollars; Holland, three hundred
and twelve thousand, five hundred
dollars; France pays its President only
one hundred and eighty Thousand dol
lars; while the German empire allews
its Emperor, Kings and others OF that
class sixteen million, five hundred and
thirty-eight thousand, five hundred and
fifty dollars, which is about three per
cent of the total revenue. Russia is
taxed twelve million, two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars for support of its
Emperor, and Great Britain four mil
lion 4 hundred and ninety. one Thousand
and fifteen dollars. Turkey pays sixteer
million, two hundred and fifty Thousand
dollars, or nearly twenty-sever per cent
ofits total revenue. Spain allows only
two million dollars, which does no
bear out the popular notion about the
extravaganza of that country. The low
est salaried ruler is the President ol
lSwitzerland, who receives three thous
and dollars q year. The countries pay
ing the largest percentage of the revenu
for royalty and the army and navy are
Italy, twenty; Austria and Spain
twenty-one; France and Germany
twenty.one; Denmark, twenty-five

A Square Boy.

Two or three weeks ago a pedestrian
who was passing house on Riopelle
street heard the sounds OF terrific
struggle going on, and as he looked in
at the front door boy about twelve
years of age, who sat in the hall, quiet
|ly observed:
:" It's only the old folks having little
row, stranger"
"Do they have 'em often?" asked the
man.
"Almost every day.
"IfI were in your place I'd stand at
the door here and charge ten cents ad-
mission fee. It's worth the money to
see a family riot like this, and you might
as we'll make a few dollars ~ to let
the chances slip"
The boy said he would think of it,
and the pedestrian waited until the man
had choked the woman as black rs q
p.um and then passed on. Yesterday
he chanced that way again, and there
was another row going on, and thu
same boy sat on the doorstep.
"I'll see the show" said the man. al
he pulled out his wallet. Has my ad
vice protited you?'
Stranger, can't take your money,
replied the lad, :.
Why?"
Because I'm square boy. For
week or 30 every fight in. there was a
: square as dice and worth the pric
: of admission, but as soon as
crowd began to come and the gat
money began to run up TO eighty o

RATS IN CELLARS. Shortly before
winter. as the stores go to cribs in Gel
lars says the Neto York Tribune, young
rats, raised by careful mothers, in hot-
low trees or other safe and sheltered
corners, busy themselves looking for
winter quarters where there will be de.
fence from cold, and where food will be
at hand When cellar is stored with
fruit, vegetables, ETC., it is very difficult
to drive out rats, and the damage they.
do in such place is enormous. All the
finest fruits are soon bitten into, defiled,
and spoiled A little anticipatory care,
to prevent their establishing a colony,
pays well. The openings for ventilation
should have rat-proof screens; the floors
and walls should be searched for holes;
empty barrels or boxes moved, holes
stopped with glass and mortar, and a
fresh coat of whitewash given. If doubt
full places remain, a good sprinkling OF
copperas and, lime is hateful and deter
rent to these troublesome animals. If
from any cause the cellar itself cannot
be made secure, choice samples of fruit
may be kept safe in old tin boilers or
similar vessels, or in boxes suspended
from the joists above by wire hooks.
The rats that go out to form new colo
Enies are mostly young, and much. more
keasil yscaught than older ones. If fed for
two or three nights on a pan of sawdust
a steel trap placed in the tray will not
be seen or suspected, and will generally
catch and bold at least one marauder."
