Riding Habits.

The skirts are still made SO narrow that as
a fashionable tailor told me the other day
they are becoming each season closer allied
to breeches By the by, these articles, made
in doeskin, are beginning to be worn in pref
erence to any other kind. They are expen-
sive to start with, but they last practically
forever, and are the perfection of comfort in
wear. Reindeer is another material used for
the same purpose. There has been great
effort made by some of the best tailors to re-
introduce the all round basque again, but it
has not found favor. Plain clothes, not
braided, fitting closely, high sleeves to wrist,
are what are to be seen in the parks. The
novelty seems to lie in the waistcoats, which
are seen sometimes only at the neck, some
times at the waist also, and are made of
check woolens, speckled linen and some
times of leather. Some Of the habits only
open enough to show mans necktie. Dark
blue, green and browns are still the favorite
colors. A few habits have been made this
year in pepper and salt mixtures. Elastic
cloth, Venetian cloth, doeskin (which is an
improved make, much stronger than the old
kinds, serges, are all employed, and most of
the cloths are waterproofed.

Not in the Dictionaries.

Rev. DR.. Hyde, president of the theolog-
ical seminary at Honolulu, tells how he was
once greatly puzzled over native word. A
young Hawaiian who had applied to him for
admission to the seminary was relating his
experience He said that before his CONVEX
sion he had been a wild and worthless fellow,
in fact "Kamepule" pronounced Kammy-
pooly). This word stuck Dr. Hyde. He
went to all the dictionaries and gloSSaries,
but couldn't find it. Then he asked other ex-
perts in the language, but they could not en-
tighten him, till finally one of the professors
stumbled upon the correct etymology. 1t
appears that Hawaiians have no sd" or #"
in their language, but in adopting foreign
words substitute "k' for I'd" and Up" for
ST" The student had adopted an English
expression which he had often heard and sup
posed to be perfectly orthodox to character
ize bis total depravity. Chicago Herald

WIN you hold me close to your heart tonight
Aye, closer than ever beforei
Can fly on thought to your distant height,
And feel the warm sunlight once moref
Can you hear the song Of my soul tonight,
Better than ever you've donef
The song Of my soul in its upward fight,
Its flight to you and the sum-
Am nearer to-night-tho' the world Is between
Near as long to bef
Can you feel the light that Is not seen,
That shineth for you and meS
Do you listen, and look, and hope and wait
For spirit message-as II
Is fate as strong as the hand Of fate!
Will 1t conquer by and bys
Do you hear me, see me, bless me, my friend,
As bless you In thought and prayer
win you faithful prove to the bitter end,

armed with pistols; he gees into a
legislative lobby, and arms himself
with a stutute. In the name of pat
ri .tism and the workingman he is au-
thorized by this statute TO collect
taxes from his neighbors with which
he can buy beef to his stouaeh's con-
tent There is no show of violence,
no outcry, nor hot pursuit, nor un-
seemly lowing OF overdri7en kline; all
is done decently and in order. He
has violated no law and fears no pun
ishment. On the contrary ne poses
as the benefactor and best friend of
the plundered man instead of wrong
doer. And yet the process is robbery
pure robbery !; meaner than that of
the Riever, because more cawardly ;
baser than that of anv other, because
right and justice and all tn noble ell
ements of law are prostitute and de-
graded in the service of seldsh greed.
In all ages and among all peoples tax
es have been considered hardship,
and the laying of them reg led with
the utmost jealousy. They are the
favorite and peculiar i'm olement of
despotism-the time honortd and dis
honored means whereby an unscrupu
lous ruler coniscates the property of
the citizen under pretense of public
necessity. And yet no Bourbon, Tu
dor or Plantagenet prince ever extor-
ted a tax to support unjus wars or
pamper royal vanity more outrageous
ly violative of private right than the
Congress OF free America now impos-
es on our people and refuses TO reduce.
They at least had the plea Of public
necessity to justify their exactions,
whilst we are taxing our people thir-
ty-three per cent. beyond the public
needs to benefit private irdividualsl !
The sum which we now collect over
and above the public needs IS greater
almost double-than the entire or
binary yearly expenditure O. the gov
ernment for twenty years just Preced-
ing the war. This takes No account
whatever ofthe sum-estimated to be
three times greater than tae whole
which goes into the public which is
paid in tariff duties into the pockets of
protected manufacturers !! Ii the test
of a peoples freedom be in6sed their
exemption from unjust and unneces-
sary taxation, I fear we should fall
very low.
Aside, then, from any question Of
policy or economy, there is no kind Of
doubt in my mind that So c. ed "pro-
tective taxation is wrongi il morals as
