Ii women sometimes convey their
feelings too strongly in their letters
it must not be forgotten that men
are guilty Of the same offense, writes
Edward w. Box in The Ladies'
Home journal There Is no man
living who would not gladly call
back some letter which, some time
in his life, be has written and re-
GREETED afterward. Men are as often
swayed BY angry passions in their
letters as women are oy their emo
tious. A woman writes far more
natural letter than does man. She
may require more space wherein tc
do it, where man would employ
terseness. But what man ever yet
begrudged a woman an extra sheet,
or that inevitable postscript which
80 often says more than her letter.
A woman always ignores all formu-
las and writes as she feels. True,
woman's way may not always be the
safest. but it is the most delightful
all the same. It's inst the difference
between spontaniety and study.

A TIE-UP OF BUTTERlNE,

How Many Thousand Pounds Have
Been Sud Without Paying Taxes.
The internal revenue officials and the pro-
prietors of the Armour Packing Company
have been in a muddle for the past week
in effectng a compromise for the non-pay-
ment of the tax on an immense quantity Of
oleomargarine or butterine. which by mis-
take has been sold without the revenue tax
being paid. AS a result all of the butterine
in prints is held by the revenue officers,
and will not be allowed to be sold until the
affair is settled. The company, unknowing-
ly, have been delivering to merchants from
sixty-four to sixty-seven pounds of print in
what were supposed to be sixty pound
boxes. charging for, 1t is said, and paying
tax on only sixty pounds. Last week while
the inspectors were making their usual
rounds this irregularity by which the
United States would lose two cents per
pound taxes was discovered, and the off,

was Immediately sent to Washington to as

there is overweight but claims IL to be the
fault of the molds.

books and are trying to arrive at a settle

stated, already lost between twenty-five anc
thirty thousand dollars. when the take:
would have amounted to only about thre'
or four thousand.
To arrive at a settlement the officers will
be compelled to go back to the time of tn
casting of the print molds, estimate tn

and calculate the amount Of butterine oil
which the tax remains unpaid. The com

compromise and pay up the unpaid taxes

House. Minister Gray came direct from the
city of Mexico to Chicago.
IF the United States government wants

to look across the Rio Grande and investi-
gate the financial status Of Mexico, said
Minister Gray.
"Mexico's entire financial system is
on a silver basis and what is
the result? Today the business
men and merchants of Mexico are
compelled to pay seventy-four per cent Tor
exchange on any bank in the United States
or in Europe. This is due to the great de-
probation in silver. AS Mexico is on a sill
yer basis. its money therefore depreciates
with silver and becomes cheap. Business. In
Mexico is almost at standstill just now.

will be when the United States takes final
action on the repeal BILL
