musical performances. He was a dog
and his name in public was Parade.

home was never known. At the begin.

Dramatic Little incidents Connected with
the Reception ef Its Exact Fare.
Everybody who has lived in London
dents connected with cabhy's reception
Of his exact fare. Els hirer, having
alighted, stands on the pavement and
feels for his purse. Cabby meanwhile
leans over the railing Of his seat with a
benignant and ingratiating smile. That
smile, it may be stated at once, Is a
fraud. 1t is not a genuine beam of good
nature, but il one of cabby's business
sprops." 1t Is a smile of much mean
ing, and cabby throws his whole soul
into it. Ii is trusting and confident. 1t
insinuates that cabby feels that he has
met in You a man in whom he recog-
nizes a peculiarly generous nature. 1t
means that cabby has no anxiety. lie
knows that you are going to give him
something for himself.
But as a matter of fact, IL you watch
cabby closely, you will see the hollow
ness Of its professions. Cabby's eyes are
very wide open, and he is scanning a
greet deal more carefully than his fare
the little pile of silver that gentleman is
turning over in his hand. Then he
stretches down his hand. broad and fat,
but trustingly, assured that he is about
to be treated as a man should be. The
fat palm as3ends again, but as his fare
turns to depart, the smile dies away.
For a moment. as if dazed, he gaZes
blankly into his hand; then q look OF
mingled contempt and indignation passes
over his expressive face. He turns fierce

By this time his fare, il he knows any

Some of the diseases which flesh is heir
TO are contagious in every sense of the
word. A contact so slight that it does
not reach even skin contact, but merely
contact with the air which smallpox
patients breathe, is sufficient to cause
smallpox in man. So, toe, mediate con-
tact-that is to say, the handling by the
well of material touched by the sick
has been proved to be the cause OF many
diseases. Of which erysipelas and scarlet
fever may be cited as examples. The
products of certain other diseases -
typhoid fever, for example-require to
be- taken into the economy to become
malefcent. Still others, such as CHAMBERS,
must be introduced into the blood cur

These facts have been proved by long
observation and are not to be disputed.

Future American Literature.

Mr.. Hamlin Garland drops into proph.
ecy in The Forum. He writes of the
future of American literature, and cur.
rent Of enthusiasm like the sweep of a
prairie wind runs through his thoughts.
The east is to hold no longer its supre-
macy in literary authority and criticism,
he says. 1t cannot, for the Atlantic
coast model of literature and criticism
Is English, not American. Already the
commercial supremacy has been wrested
from New York by the northwest.
Artistic supremacy will shortly be, for
following the Columbian exposition the
rise of Chicago as literary and art CEN
ter is only question of time. "Maga-
zines and publishing houses are to come.
The writers have already risen"
"Henceforth when men of the old
world speak Of America they will not
think of Boston and New York and
Philadelphia, they will mean Chicago
and the Mississippi valley" Mr.. Gar
land quotes this as the estimate already
put on his part of the country by the
man of the middle section of the I'm
ion, and it is plain Mr.. Garland more
than half agrees with the valuation.
He shocks the Atlantic coast as with an
earthquake when he patronizingly tells
1t that the New England literary group
wrote gentle and polite poems on books
and events" But the real American
literature, that which is springing up in
the west and south, is literature not
of books, but of life. ''It draws its in.
spiration from contact with men and
nature. 1t has the rough hewn quality
of first hand work. 1t has few limita-
tions. 1t is free"
1t is enough to make the very stones
of Boston pavements cry out when Mr..
Garland goes on and says, Culture is
not creative power" He believes, too,
that today, in spite of it's foreign popu-
lation, Chicago is really the most repre-
sentative American city. Not even Chi
cago, however, can permanently arro-
gate to itself the authority in artistic
and literary criticism. "With cities of
half millisn inhabitants scattered from
Pittsburg to Seattle, New York and Chi
cago will alike be made humble" Then
Mr. Garland delivers the following ex-
hortation:
Stand up o young man and woman Of the
westl Stand erect Face the future with
song on your lips and the light Of a broader
day in your eyes. Turn your back on the past,
not in scorn, but in justice to the future. Re-
iect the scholssticism Of the east. Cease try
ing to be correct and become creative. This

An Income Tax Bill.

Representative de Almonds scheme
for raising government revenues has
some features slightly unusual. Mr.. de
Almond wants to accumulate annual
revenues large enough to meet the out
lay for pensions, be the same great or
small For this purpose he would i'm
pose graded tax on all incomes beyond
$4,000. The secretary of the treasury
shall fix the annual rate of the income
tax and proportion 1t to the amount
needed to pay the pensions. The $4,000
income is to be taken as basis and is to
be taxed certain per cent. All incomes
up to $50, 900 shall be taxed at the same
rate. For incomes between $4,000 and
100000 the rates shall be doubled. In
comes between 100000 and 5000
shall be levied on M rate three times
as great as that of the SIC, 900 income. A
man with $l,0O0,000 year will pay
rate six times as great as the person
worth $l0,OO0a year, This measure will
probably be favored by all persons with
an income Ct less than $4,000 a year
and pronounced robbery by those who
have that and more. If such law
should be passed, the poor millionaires
will have as desperate struggle to evaae
it as they now have to get out of paying
real estate taxes.
