WHOLESALE TAX DODGING.

count OF George Gould's assessment and
taxation at Lakewood was correct, and
that Mr. Gould pays there a tax OF
S'eA.2S on an assessment OF 500. 200. In
Guiding one dollar for poll-tax.
Considering that the personal property
Of the Gould estate was valued for pro-
bate duty at about seventy million dol
lars; that a large portion OF this was un-
taxed securities and property. and that
the Tax Commissioners OF New York
put on the Goulds an assessment on per-

cult TO say whether the injustice OF this

Delicate French Foods.

In France a great many things are put
up in small earthen dishes, named ter
rines. They are rather shallow and
either oval or round. The foie gras that
we get in America comes in these dishes.
All sorts OF meats, game and poultry
are put up in terrnes, and they are then
termed pate en- terrine. These pates are
really delicious potted meats. Cooked
tripe is cut in small pieces. covered
with a broth and sold in these earthen
dishes. All that Is necessary is to put
the terrine In the oven long enough
to heat the contents, which is then
ready for the table. In the quarters
where the workingpeople live there are
cook-shops where one can go at certain
hours and purchase hot meats and veg
etables. These are sold in what are
called portions.
