THE MKlnLeY BILL.

Its Operation "a Subject of Consider sble
Interest to the Ireasury department.
WAsmNGroN. Oct IA subject OF
considerable interest at the Treasury
Department is tho operation Of the in
ternal sections OF the Mckinley Tariff
bill Internal Revenue Commissioner
Mason states that the reduction in rev
: enue caused by the cuttlng- OF the. tobac-
co tax from eight to six cents per pound
will be about "a 900, 600, and the reduo-
tion caused by tho abolition Of special
taxes will amount to 81, 500, 600 more.
The total revenue collected by the
bureau will not fail far short Of what it
reached for the last fiscal year. which
was nearly si43 600 600, Were itnot for
the new law it is probable this revenue
would have run up during the current
fiscal year 10 sl50 600 600 The present
cost OF collection is about 90 10 per cent
OF the amount collected This percent
age will probably not be materially
altered
A statement has been published that
the new law will result in decrease OF
the number of internal revenue districts
throughout the country This, the
Commissioner says, is an error. There
will be as many collectors OF internal
revenue as before The abolition of the
special taxes however, may cause a
small reduction OF the clerical forco
both in the collectors offices and in
Washington.
In the enrolment OF the Mckinley
bill provision was omitted for rebate
upon tobacco bearing eight cent stamps
purchased after the enactment Of the
bill and before the date when its in
ternal revenue sections go into effect
January 1 next Although it was un-
questionably the intent to make this
law, the clerical error is fatal 1t is be-
lieved that the bill providing for a re-
bate Of two cents per pound upon to-
bacco paying eight cents between now
and January will be offered at the next
session Of Congress-

With the mass of men-ay, and with
many women. too-matrimony Is largely
decided by habit Men marry women be-
cause they are used to them. They de-
clare and believe that they marry because
they love them. But-here we come
back to the original statement--they
love them because they are used to
them. A wise man declares that most
men would marry their dressing gowns or
their favOrite arm chairs il they could.
And SO, you see, . clever young woman
finds herself on the royal road TO her en-
pioyer's heart in the business necessity that
keeps her constantly near him. The
private secretary who takes the burden
of his correspondence of his
shoulders. or the typewriter whose nimble
fingers click over the keys-given the man
whose heart is at leis lre-this woman in
some vague way becomes part OF his daily
atmosphere. He needs her and she is al
ways there. He learns to depend upon
her. He gets used to having her
about. She understands his ways
and humors them. One day . sudden
thought strikes him. The next day he
proposes 10 her. And then Mr.. Julian
Ralph finds that . strange new thing has
come about. And she? She guessed how
it would be from the very first
