There is little doubt that the rev.
enue bill of the next congress will
contain clause imposing tax up
on incomes over a certain amount
Say over $4,000 -and that from
this source can be raised revenue
enough 10 supply any deficiency
that may result from a new adjust
ment of the tariff.
The proposition Is already warm
y advocated by leading Democratic
papers IN the west and south, such
a tax having always commanded the
support Of large majority Of the
Democrats in congress.
Many leading Republicans also
have favored il. Secretary Fessen-
den urged the continuance Of the tax
in speech in 1864 and John Sher-
man made speech in the senate
advocating it In 1882. Mr. Wells,
when commissioner OF internal rev.
enue, earnestly advocated il.
The objection that such laws offer
temptations 10 fraud and false swear
isg and cannot be enforced Is met
by the facts that Ghe system operates
satisfactorily in England. France
and Germany. as we'll as in other
European countries, and that we
easily raised over $40, ,00O, 900 from
it in 1866. Besides, nearly all
forms of taxation are open TO the
same objection. Frauds are COM
mitted under the tariff laws, in the
assessment Of lands and the listing
Of personal property; but govern
menls do not hesitate to impose taxes
merely because some men succeed
in evading them.
II would not be difficult to i'm
prove on the previous law and TO
provide methods for ascertaining
the amount OF incomes with such
penalties for evasions as will insure
The fair enforcement of the act
We can discover no objection TO
The proposition that does not apply
10 other forms OF taxation, while it
possesses merits which no other
form has. II is equitable it falls
upon those most able to bear il and
who require most government pro-
.ection.-N. Y. World.

HOW
Yon ask teachers to answer som.
problems, which have perplexed many
teachers. / gladl give young teach,
ers the benefit Of my experience which
has in some cases been satisfactoril,
successful with me, though they may
not prove to be with others.
l am OF the opinion, teacher must
suit the remedy to the case, he must
possess sufficient amount Of origi-
nality to apply the proper remedy.
A physician who cannot skiIlfully di-
agnose a disease cannot apply a prop
er remedy, SO a teacher who cannot
diagnose his cases must not hope to
be successful in applying remedy.
Study each individual case, as there
may be complication of diseases to
cure and careful and long treat
ment needed to cure some chronic all
ment before the case at hand can be
touched.
How to prevent tardiness.
Very much depends upon individ-
ual cases, /. e., the same course might
not prove as successful in one school
as in another. II tardiness is gener-
al, would advise the teacher to an
nounce at night that at 8 o'clock
sharp next morning he will perform.
some work that will interest all /;
something none can afford to miss.
Then let him set his wits TO work to
do something that he knows will
please that particular neighborhood.
OF course this requires tact, and
the teacher who is not wise enough
to follow this mp with increased vigor
must fail with this method.
The teacher should constantly
bring before his pupils in lectures,
readings, recitations, and songs the
necessity of being on time. Show
the pupil that it is his duty to be
ready to commence work promptly
at 8 q. m.
The teacher must be prompt, now
ever, or all efforts viii be in vain.
Much Of our tardiness arises from no
fault on part Of any in particular, but
rather lack of convenience for
knowing when or what is the proper
time. Pupils may live too far away
to hear the bell II there be one, or
they may have poor tlmepieces or
none ut all.
Before remedy can be used, we
must first seek the cause sec the pa
rent and urge the necessity OF FORM
ing one of the most important les
sons for child TO learn-that Of |
puncluaIity.
Tn cities where, parents are in the
habit OF retiring late and consequent
" have late breakfasts it is better to |
have school time little slow, bnt IN |
sist on being on time at the ringing
of the bell. II it is the pupils fault, |
let MIN romain alter 1 o'clock aad |
make up double time BY performing |
somo stipulated task such as to com |
mit to memory suitable memory -goms
0n hardness, ETC., etc.
Nothing punisbes such pupils more
than 10 make up lost time. Let this
be fixed fact with All trouble

The following choice bit of word painting
occurs in Hawthorne's Marble Faun:
"Women be they of what earthly rank
they may, however gifted with intellect or
genius, or endowed with awful beauty, have
always some little handiwork ready to fill
the tiny gap of every vacant moment. A
needle is familiar to the fingers of them all.
A queen, no doubt, plies it on occasion; the
woman poet can use it as adroitly as her
pen; the woman's eye, that has discovered
a new star, turns from its glory to send the
polished little instrument cleaning along
the hem of her kerchief, or to darn casual
fray in her dress. And they have greatly
the advantage of us in this respect. The
slender thread of silk or cotton keeps them
united with the small familiar, gentle in
terests OF life, the continually operating in
fiuences of which do so much for the health
of the character, and carry Off what would
Otherwise be dangerous accumulation of
morbid sensibility. A vast deal of human
sympathy runs along this electric line,
stretching from the throne to the wicker
chair of the humblest seamstress, and
keeping high and low in a species of COM
munion with their kindred Beings"
Housewives, while you ply the needle,
have you ever reflected on the vicissitudes
of life? See to it that your husbands pro-
vide for the future welfare of their families
by at once applying for Policy in the
