Cemetery Wreaths Which Were Filled
with Costly Liquors.
The French customs officers who are
stationed at the gates of Paris to guard
against excisable goods entering with
out paying the duty have occasion ally
to deal with very ingenious att empts
at smuggling. Last week, for ms lance,
an attempted fraud was laid bare which
goes to show how fertile the contra
bandist, are in expedients. At the
Menllmontant gate man in charge of
a pony cart, in which were three large
wooden boxes, attempted to pass the
barriers. "Havc you anything to de-
clare" asked one of the officials
Nothing" said the man, unless
government has put tax on cemetery
wreaths,'' and as he spoke he drew
the lid off one of the boxes, revealing a
number of the wreaths and crosses of
artificial flowers so common in French
burying grounds. The man was about
to pass on when something about him
aroused the suspicious of the chief
official. lie took the cover off one of
the boxes and admired the beauty of
the flowers and their remarkable fidel-
ity to nature. Lifting one casually in
his hand he found it was remarkably
heavy, and closer examination showed
that when stripped of flowers and moss
it was zinc case filled with the finest
brandy. The rest of the contents of the
BOXES were of the same nature, and
were at once confscated. AS frauds of
the kind are severely punished by the
Partisan authorities, the ingenious in
ventor of the trick will probably be
allowed leisure enough in Mazas to de-
sign something novel.-Pittsburgh Dis

Different Opinions of the Ladies Respect

There is great difference of opinion
on the subject of dogs. BY some peo-

petted, and have collars around their
necks, and embroidered blankets for
their backs, and they lie on the lady's
pillow, and take their siestas on the
lounge, and are members of the family.

the dogs you see bear the marks of
humiliation. They never saw a bone
till all the meat was picked off, and no
sooner did they find the gill of behead-

howled away. They have had split
sticks on their tail, and tin pans ap-

Inland mission alone that is authority

And now the British government in
India, to increase its revenue, has au-

very unusual form. Those who take
the license come under obligation to

ONE of the most active and best in

as his solid conviction that some thirty
thousand men and women 20 to bed

THE opium habit is dangerous con-
tagion which is spreading from it's
center in Asia into other countries. AS
a form of iniquity it is unsurpassed
and should be met with most relentless
opposition.
A NEW schoolhouse in Efiingham
county, I'LL, has been named for Frances
E. Willard, because it is situated just
across the road from big spring
which gushes in an unfailing stream
from the hillside and forms a rivulet
that never runs dry.
BISHOP HARRISON, of Glasgow, speak

truest way of honoring the memory of
Burns is to fight against the giant in

too often struggled in vain.

been so completely leather-coated by

is already SO general that the govern

AN anti-treating league that has been
formed in Philadelphia is stirring up
club circles. 1t originated with several
members of the Union League club,
and inside of twenty-four hours more
than score of the members of the
club joined the league. Applications
for membership have poured in since
from all the clubs in the city. No
doubt about the earnestness of the pro-
lnoters and members of the league is
expressed. Its promoters say that the
league gives q man new liberty, and

deny that it is a temperance movement.

And from LIES round OF care can turn
To question wisely. gayly,
All things that grow-the earth, the sky,
And fruits and flowers in season,
And always getting some reply
That satisfies her reason;
And satisfied, she comes to know

And learn her steps to follow,
