Communities Where No One Pays Taxes
and Everybody Has Pension.
Prof de Lavelcye in Contemporary Review:
In the course OF last summer, while in
Switzerland and Baden, / visited several
villages where each family is supplied
from forests belonging to the commune
with wood for building purposes and for
fuel; also with pasturage for their cattle
and with small plot of ground on which
to grow potatoes, fruit and vegetables.
In addition to this. the wages OF all
public servants are paid for from tho
communal revenue, so that there Is no
local taxation whatever.
may mention. as an example, the
township OF Trendenstadt, ut the foot
OF the Kniebis, in Baden. Not single
farthing OF taxation has been paid since
its foundation in 1851 The commune
possesses about 5000 acres Of pine forest
and meadow land, worth about a10, 900
sterling. The 1,42O inhabitants have
each as much wood for their building
purposes and firing as they wish for,
and each one can send out to pasture,
during the summer, has cattle, which no
feeds during the winter months. The
schools, church, thoroughfares and foun-
tains are all we'll cared for, and every
year considerable improvements arc
made. One hundred thousand marks
were employed in 1888 for the establish
ment in tho village of distribution OF
water with iron pipes. A hospital has
been built and pavilion in the market
place, where band plays on fete days
Each year q distribution Of the surplus
revenue is made among the families and
they each obtain from fifty to sixty
marks, or shillings, and more still when
an extraordinary quantity Of timber has
been sold. In 1882 $4,000 marks were
distributed among the 1,490 villagers.

Suppose that these woods and mead
ows and this land all belonged to land

he would go and lavish the revenue in
large capitals or in travelling. What an
immense difference this would make to
the inhabitantsl To appreciate this it
suffices merely to compare the condition
Of the Highland crofters, the free citi-
gems of one OF the richest countries OF
the world. and whose race has ever been

Of these villages, hidden away in the

land and Baden, partly reserved for the
inhabitants and partly employed in OBJ

poor people! Had they but been allowed
to keep for themselves the sea weed and
the help which the sea brings them,

cd; but that wasn't the case all. Tho cat

sand / have missed you very much
myself, Mr.. Fassett," said the cat.
Out learned great deal from the cat
about what had happened, but that was
nothing to him beside the instruction 1t
gave him in the way Of becoming him
self once moro. "You can not change
back again" explained the cat, ''unless
you 90 to the same spot on tho lawn
where you became crow, and in the
hearing Of the last person you talked to
while you were Q. Fassett, Esq, say
aloud the last words you used before this
spell came over YOU"
Qui waited impatiently many days for
the builder to come to his house. He
was we'll fed now and had something
better than the bare limb OF tree for q
bed, for the little girl took excellen5
care OF him; but often enough he feared
that he would not see the builder until
the family returned to the city and then
he would have to remain crow all win
ter. But one day. to his great Joy, he
saw the builder coming up the walk.
His daughter had him in her arms ut the
time. and before she could grasp him
tightly his wings were spread and he
was away. Up over the tree he went
and then down upon the lawn where he
had thrown himself in the early sum-
mer. He lost no time, for he feared
the builder might get out Of his hearing,
and opening his bill to the utmost he
croaked:
'Oh dear! oh dear! shall I ever be able
to sell those LOTS"
But 1t was not croak. 1t was the
veritable voice Of Q. Fassett, Esq, and
there stood Qui in his own proper per-
son.
my God!" calculated the builder.
Mr.. Fassett's little girl never saw her
pet crow again.
Though there are many mysterious
disappearances recorded in the police
archives, few are ever explained. Some
attempts ut explanation have been
made, but they are mainly speculative.
The most plausible speculation of this
kind was elaborated by journalist .
few years ago, who attributed these dis
appearances to holes in space, into
which the victims accidentally tumble,
and are forever afterward invisible, in.
tangible, immortal and incapable Of
escaping. The mystery of Qui Fassett's
disappearance is truthfully given here.
His case may be an isolated one, but it
is wholly improbable that transforma-
lions such as his occur, and that the VIC
Tins are helpless for want Of the aid Of
some intelligent and friendly cat?
