A Gallant Fellow Passenger.

Lily Berties, the Juvenile soubrette, had
been spending her holidays Oh the lake OF
Geneva When about to return t. Paris,
she was accOsted at the railway station by
young gentleman whom she had never
seen before. He handed her large basket
of gold straw filled with the choicest
flowers, and said: II am also going to Paris,
and these flowers shall serve to introduce US
to each other"
When, ON their arrival in Paris, Mile
Lily stepped into cab, the stranger said to
her: "If you will wait moment, will
have the basket filled with sweets in place
of the flowers, as the latter are faded"
On receiving the basket five minutes after
ward the soubrctte was astonished at ita
lightness and told her companion 50.
'No wo!.der,' said the gentleman, your
little hands have conveyed duty free across
the frontier IS keyless watches, which lay
concealed in the moss" SO saying, he lift
ed his hat and disappeared. Paris Figaro.

CHARITY THAT COST NOTHING.


Captain jack Crawford. the poet Of the
plains, tells story ou himself that will
bear repeating The captain, o. may he
stated for the information Of those who
never saw him, Is % tall, muscular fellow,
who wears bis coal black hair down over
his shoulders "a la joaquin Miller aud Buff
falo Bin and presents striking appear
ance.
lie is a- mild q man a5 ever drew breath,
with q heart as tender 90. "a uumau'- but to

that Of the hero ola yellow backed romance.
Well, the captain was ou bis way Co lunch
one day when n E,edy specimen accosted
him with q request for quarter TO buy
meal
Indeed, mister haven't had bite to
eat for 2i hours, be put in appealingly as
he saw the long haired westerner hesi-
tated.
II am here on expense and can't well
spare a quarter, but | am going TO yet
something to eat myself and II you will
come along with me | will give YOU "a
square meal'
The man followed sulkily, and they en-
tered q cheap restaurant where the cap
tain ordered two big boiled dinners Be
ing hungry, he iOon dispatched his own
dinner. when he CHANGED to look over at
the mendicant and was surprised to see the
latter nibbliug his food daiutily, not at all
like "A hungry man.
Look here, said the host, leaning over
and speaking in a low voice to his guest,
II brought you in here because | believed
you We're starving You lied to me- Now,
| want to say to you that if you don't eat
every bite Of that boiled dinner and polish
the platter I'll give you the cusSedest licking
"A white man ever got Now get to work"
The man obeyed with terror inspired alac-
rity and swallowed his corned beef and
cabbage like a starving harvest hand. The
waiter, who had overheard the captains
threat, told the proprietor of the restau-
rant, and he shook his fat sides rs he
watched the gastronomic performance of
the frightened tramp When the meal was
dispatched, the captain called for pudding
and ice cream for two.
The fraud gave "a great gasp, and throw
ing up both hands turned bcseechingly to
the poet with this SuppliCatiun: Say, cum

1t wasn't something to eat | wanted, but
something TO drink Please, cunnel, have
pity on feller, won't yOuy'
The 'cunnel" told the fellow to 90 aud
be quick about It, or he would kick him
through every street in town. No second
invitation was needed. The gorged bcggar
"skated"
When the charitable captain tried to pay
his bill, the jolly Teutonic proprietor re-
fused to let him liquidate for the tramp.

A story is told of Brillat- at-Savarin, the
master Of French cooks, which shows that
1t is not easy to tell where safety begins In
oyster eating,
The despair of my life is that eau never
get my I'LL of oysters" said a friend.
Come and dine with me, and you shall
have your ill, ," replied Savarin.
The friend, one NJ. Laperte, came, and for
one hour devoted himself to eating oysters
When he had swallowed 81 dozen and was
proceeding to eat the thirty-second, the
host rung for the soup, saying;
Not today, my friend, will destiny allow
you to eat at your fill" NJ. Laperte did
ample justice to the dinuerwhich followed

United States and mortgaging the future
OF the country to meet a comparative
trifiing present deficit, and to bridge over
the very short period during which there
may be further interruption of revenues
by the tightening of stocks imported at
higher rates to prepare for business under
a low tarin system? There is one simple
ana easy way of getting what money the
needs, of securing sufficient to
meet all the demands of the current fiscal
year while making certain of ample reve-
nues thereafter to prevent the recurrence
of shortage between the current obliga-
tons OF the government and its collec-
tions.
That way is by the increase Of internal
revenue taxes on articles already taxed
The new revenues from 1t would be collect
able by the system and official force now in
existence, without increased expense or
of the army of office holders
Whisky is the most fruitful source of
revenue. The present tax of 30 cents a GAL
Ion has been collected without appreciable
loss through fraud by the excellent system
which was devised when the tax was fixed
at so cents per gallon. This system has
stood the strain of almost a double tax
fact, with increasing closeness of collec-
tions year by year. A tax of $l.5O, an in
crease of 30 cents gallon, would certainly
add to the revenues more than $50 900, 900
a year; but that Is not all The imposition
or such tax to take effect at day in the
near future-say sixty days after the en-
actment Of the law-would bring within
tnat time TO the treasury an additional rev.
