government might thus be compelled to
seek elsewhere for revenue, the revolu-
ton would so fill the land with new ac-
tivity, so load the air with the perfume

whole nation would feel the impulse and
all mankind be made the happier and

The real cause Of the commercial de-

dearth of investment, but with 4 1000, 900

White Girls, Marriages with Indians.

OF the two New England girls who at
tracted notice few years ago by we'd
ding Indians, one, Nora Belle Fellows,
the former schoolteacher, has found life
unbearable with the Sioux Chaska and
has left her husband. The other, Elaine
Goodale, the poet, found life on an In
dian reservation unbearable and has
come east with her husband. The result
in both cases seems to show the nonsuc-
cess attendant on attempted affiliation
of Indian savagery and white civiliza-
tion.-Boston Home Journal

TAX BACHELORS.

Tho Matrimonial Market Would Be
Doomed and Commerce Benefited.
We commend the suggestion recently
offered by Baltimore woman to the es-
feet that a tax should be levied on bach
elors. There is something i'll this prop
osition that commends itself to the
judicial mind. 1t does not, for instance,
attack social class. 1t makes no dis
elimination between the rich and the
poor. The idea is to tax every bachelor
who cannot show that he is unable to
marry because Of having to support de-
pendent relatives to the extent of $40 per
annum. The estimate is that there are
100000 of marriageable bachelors in
the United States, ard that at least
100000 of these have no valid excuse
for their selfish and useless condition.
A tax of $40 per capita, therefore,
would yield 4O,O00O0O 1t could be COL
lected without much expense. 1t would
do no great harm, and it would have the
merit of providing its own remedy for
those who felt unwilling to pay. II it
accomplished nothing else, it would com
municate powerful boom to the matr-

little rills that run to ice cream, soda

and philopenas, but it would turn loose
whole torrents into the Golfers OF the
butcher, the baker, the grocer, the
apothecary, the family physician and the
wet nurse.

toes at one end of it or abrasing her scalp

"This little piece of boudoir furniture
is beautifully embossed. The exterior

the tub are engrossed Mrs. Gebhard's
initials in huge letters. 1t weighs 200
pounds avoirdupois weight. The market

riveted vessel suggestive of female syba-
ritism there are 5000 ounces. Ats3 cents
an ounce this amounts to 81, ,65G for the
metal alone.
"Silver workers in New York who
were allowed to feast their eyes on the
beautiful vessel before it was swathed
in tinted cotton and soft tissue paper,
preparatory to being sent to Baltimore,
say that it could not possibly be made
for less than $500. This brings the
