The French taxation scheme is n curl
ous thing to an American. Everything
is taxed, II the taxation is boil direct
and Indirect. There is II house tax paid
in proportion to the rental, The privilege
of working ut II trade or II profession is
taxed. There is n lane tax, and there is
II tariff ON articles imported from abroad.
There IS also the Octroi tax, which makes
every article brought into II city pay II
duty, and there are revenue stamps for
bills, checks md receipts. If n French
farmer brings a dozen eggs into Paris he
must pay n tax upon them ut the entrance
To the city, and if his wife carries in "A
pound of butter she pays a percentage
upon it before it can be sold. Funeral
matters are taxed, and the government
makes all Of the tobacco made in the
country.
II is very poor tobacco, too, and the
prices show that its revenue from this
source must he very large. The govern
ment of Paris also does the pawnbroking
of the city. The interest charged is
from 81 Ia II per cent, and the pledges
can not be redeemed until one day after
the money is paid back. With such
taxation it is no wonder that France has
nm immensc revenue, and that its eXpen-
diturcs are c~Ntrayagant. Last year it is
estimated more than $500, 600, 900 were
collected and spent, and l don't believe
there is much lying awake among French
politicians in thinking what shall he
done with the surplus.-Frank G. Car

The company that | work for would
make itself popular by paying its portcrs
good wages instead Of requiring the tray

is sure of Il fun car, and each passenger
means 10 him twenty five cents. Take n
car on the Southern line, where the pal
ace coaches are not patronized much, and
you will find the porter getting from $40
to $50 n month, because that is all they
have TO depend upon. The company does
moi say that the price of n berth is S225

would fail to give the porter his quarter.

their pay is never over so Il month. l

But it is positively inexcusable to admin
lister or take narcotics or potent sedatives
to relieve %intranquility of the nerves, the
easily d~iscoverable cause of which is simply
Indigestion. Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters
is the remedy indicated when the nervous
system is weak, and consequently super
sensitive and untranquil. Braced and
quoted by this superlative tonic, the sys.
tenn obtains needlul repose at night, dys-
pcptic qualms cease to disturb the stom-
ach, and mental inquictude disappears.
The habit of body becomes regular, the
liver and kidneys are beautifully stimu-
lated, and bodily or mental exertion ceases
to be- a wearisome and difficult task. Neu-
ralgia, rheumatism and mallrial disor-
ders. and kidney troubles, are entirely
eradicatcd by this matchless invigorant
ard regulator.

SUNRISE.

The east Is blossomingl Yea, a rose,
Vast as the heavens, soft as a kiss,
Sweet as the presence of n woman is.
Rises and reaches, and widens and grows.
large and luminous, up from the sea
And out of the sea, as a blossoming tree
Richer and richer, 80 higher and higher,
Deeper and deeper it takes It's hue;
brighter and brighter it reaches through
The space Of heaven and the place OF stars,
Till all is rich AS a rose can be,
And my rose leaves fall into pillows Of nns.
Then beams reach upward as arms from the sen;
Then lances and arrows are aimed at me.
Then lances and spangles and spars and bars
Are broken and shivered and strewn on the sea;
And, around and about me, tower and spire
Start from the pillows Ike tongues Of fire

Queen Victoria is very strict in the
matter of court etiquette. She even makes
grammatical rules. She wishes to be re
ferrcd to rs Her Majesty, not Ms her
Majesty. This is more modest than the
requirement Of Russian royalty, which
has the names of the imperial family
printed on the title page Of the orthodox
prayer books in big capitals, while the
name OF God appears in small type.-The

As the season advances, the pains and
aches by which rheumatism makes Itself
known, are experienced after every ex-
posture. 1t is not claimed that Hood
Sarsaparilla is a specific for rheumatism
we doubt if there is, or can be. such a
remedy. But the thousands benefited
by Hoods Sarsaparilla, warrant us in
urging others who suffer from rheumatism
to take it before the first keen twinge.
