ZODIACAL


pective groom, who is as modest a man
as ever drew this mortal breath, con-
ceived the idea of giving his prospective
bride pair of jeweled carriers. He
went into a jeWelry store, looked at
shirt studs, passed from them to gold
headed umbrellas, and so on by
easy stages to the desired object.
With blushing brow and modest mien.
he finally gave his order for a pair of
carriers that are enough to make a girl
forget her catechism to pc sess., On the
buckle Of one was her monogram IN
diamonds and Opals, and on the other
his monogram in sapphires and pearls.
He felt aWfully proud of himself when
he carried them up to her, and he al
most cried when she gave them one
glance, handed them back to him, and
in freezing tones inquired. "When may
IeXpect hustle and pair of corsets?'
She was so badly inSulted that she
went through the ceremony of return
ing his ring for the forty-ninth time in
the brief period of their engagement,
and she wrote him note saying she
never could trust her happiness in the
hands of man so incOnSiderate of her
most sacred feelings.a The carriers went
back to the jewelers. with instruct
ions from the frantic man to give
them away if they could not
be sold. He succeeded in time
in soothing the wounded sensibilities
of the girl, and when they were married
one of the solemn vows he registered
silently in his own heart was to let his
wife keep her stock-hose-up with a
simple Irvine string to the end of her
days before he would interfere in the
delicate matter again.
All young women, however. are not
so prudish about trifies, and it is quite
as presents to girls. to whom, of course,
they must first have given some token
of a pledge to marry. Rings set with
the birth-month stone of the adored are
selected more than any other at present

Exhausted and used up quite;

looked on her. The latter was be-
coming, the former was not; so she
dried her eyes, powdered her nose, kept
the collar on and called the prince to
behold how pretty the effect was. Albert
Edward liked it immensely. He went
right down town and ordered the dog

favorite, Mrs. Langtry. That settled it.
The style ragged for while, and had it's
run, as all styles will. Lately, however,
it has been revived in the East, and by
a year from next Fourth of July it will
probably rage in ST. Paul. When Paul

"Oh!"-a flood of light breaking upon

forth a girdle. Nobody can blame
man for getting everlastingly mixed up
ON a woman'S combination, and, not
knowing the difference between her
collar and surcingle, when girls them
selves become so COMPOUNDED about it
sometimes that they sit in the middle of

One of the latest feminine freaks is
the dOg-collar, ''a little dearer than his
dogs, and little better than his
horse's," sighed the man as he paid $50
for an oxidized silver collar for his
wife. Then a bright idea struck him,
and he had the clasp engraved. "Jennie;
John Blank, Owner; 90 Blank avenue"
And was Jennie mad? Not bit of it.
She was delighted to think that her
collar was more exactly like a dogs
than any of her neighbors'.
The Princess of Wales is said
to be responsible for this craze.
She had pretty collie. to whom
she was greatly attached. The
beast had the bad sense to go the
way of all the earth one day. In an
agony of grief the princess took his
silver collar from his neck and fastened
it about her own. Like any common

TWIN F~ALLAOIES.
s"Der Freisinnige Schulverein,'
which may be translated as the Free
Thinking School Society was organized
last Monday, in Chicago, at a meeting
of anarchists and socialists. With the
ultimate design of forming q system OF
day schools as well, its object for the
present is the establishment Of secular
Sunday schools in Chicago. Discard
Ing the Bible as unfit to be put in the
hands of children, it proposes TO teach
as a substitute history, science and
socialism. The movement is part of the
most important work now in progress
among the socialists of the country.
Similar organizations are perfecting In
New York, Milwaukee and at other
points, and are ostensibly the outcome
of a resolution passed at the last annual
meeting of the Northwestern Turner
Bund."
When a political party great enough
to capture the control of the govern
ment of the United States, teaches
the atrocious doctrine that the govern
ment may tax the citizen for other than
public purposes, may tax one citizen
for the benefit Of another, then the
socialist seems justified in making
efforts to establish a propaganda.
The republican doctrine is a violation
of the command, "Thou shalt not
STEAL" aud an infraction of the consti.
tuition, IS Mr.. Justice Miller, u OF
their own judges on the supreme
bench, said in Loan Association vs..
Topeka, 20 Wallace. i'm these wOrds:--
"To lay with one hand the power Of
government on the property Of the citi-
zen, and with the other to bestow it
upon favored individuals to aid private
| enterprises and build up private for
tunes, is none the less a robbery be-
cause It Is done under the forms of law
and is called taxation. The
merchant, the mechanic, the Inn
keeper, the banker, the builder, the
steamboat owner, are equally pro-
moters of the public good, and equally
deserving the aid OF the citizens by
forced contributions. No line can be
drawn In favor of the manufacturer
which would not open the Golfers of
the public treasury to the importuni-
ties of two-thirds of the business men
of the city or town"
And Judge Thomas M. Cooley, OF
Michigan, in his Unconstitutional Limi-
tations," said:-
"Constitutionally a tax can have no
other basis than the raising OF revenues
for public purposes, and whatever
government exsction has not this basis
is tyrannical and unlawful. A tax on
imports, therefore, the purpose of
which is not to raise revenue, but to
discourage and indirectly prohibit
some particular import for the benefit
of some home manufacturer, may well
be questioned as being merely color
able, and, therefore, not warranted by
constitutional principles"
Now, in view of the fact that tie
policy of the government, contrary to
the will of a large majority of the peo-
| nla- il 10 he used To collect frnm the
