Japan's Land Tax

The land tax is continual grievance
in Japan. In Mitford's "Tales of Old
Japan" is related the story of Sakura,
who met his death in the seventeenth
century by his resolution in bringing be-
fore the Shotgun in person the grievances
of his fellow agriculturists, oppressed by
their feudal lord. Unable to obtain re-
dress from any subordinate authority,
he concealed himself beneath bridge
over which the shogun's procession must
inevitably pass, and climbing out at the
crucial moment thrust his memorial at
the. end of o bamboo stick into the die
tator'slitter. This was capital offense,
and even handed justice punished the
oppressors, but executed the complain
ent.
An Englishman travelling lately in the
part of the country inhabited by this
Japanese tribune found his tomb and a
temple erected to his memory, which has
been highly honored of late years The
visitor pointed out that Sakura had been
crucifed for complaining of the rent.
EYES," said the malcontent farmers,
"but the rent was decreased. They don't
cruelty us now, but they don't lower the
tax" Everything" continues the OBJ
server, "was the fault of thegovernment
if it rained, if the dams burst, if there
was blight. It was all in consequence
of land ax."-Nineteenth Century.

A Travellers Tale,

It was In first class carriage, and the
passengers, throwing off all cold reserve,
had been beguiling the journey with
pleasant conversation. One man in par
ticular, whose bronzed and sun burned
features told of long sojourns in foreign
lands, had kept them all interested with
his anecdotes and stories of far distant
climes.
Eyes, gentlemen" said he, "there is
nothing like travel to expand the mind.
You see so many sights that are novel
and have SO many strange experiences
that foreign tour is an education in it
self. Now, don't suppose, for instance,
that many of you gentlemen have ever
seen beet root putting on a waistcoat. )"
The company sat up, staring in sur
prise.
"Seen beet root putting on q waist
coat2 No, we certainly have not"
"Nor a lettuce DOMINIC pair of trou-
sers!"
mo"
"Nor pile of mustard and cress get
ting into shooting jacket%
"No."
"Nor spring onion fixing on its tie
and collar?"
mo, not oven that"
"Well, gentlemen" said the traveller
as the train drew up in the station and
he prepared to escape, you may believe
me or believe me not, as you like. But
several times in my wanderings have
seen with my own eyes not only beet
root, or lettuce, or an onion, but a
whole salad dressing. London Tit-Bits.

Servants, Cockades In England.

One of the officials of the College of
Arms estimated that upward of rs per
cent of those using the cockade on the
hats of their servants did SO without an
atom of right, and he branded this as
sumption, like all other assumptions, as
alike unmeaning, ridiculous and con-
temptible in the highest degree.
The following may lead many to dis
criminate between those who rightly and
those who wrongly use such distinction:
The cockade is the symbol of immedi-
ate service to the crown, and in the hats
of servants actually means this: II serve
one, who now serves the queen"
All naval and military officers, there
fore, while in or holding commission, all
holding Offices by patent, her majesty's
lieutenants of counties, the county sher--
ifs while exercising their Office, govern
ment ministers, judges, queens counsel
and others holding distinct Offices under
the sovereign or in the great public de-
partments of the state are entitled to use
it. 1t has also been laid down that officers
and others on their retirement from i'm
mediate crown service should cease cock;
ade use.-London Correspondent.

A Kick From Boston Boys.

The boys in the city proper are finding
fault because in picking out streets on
which coasting will be allowed this win
ter the aldermen did not pick out more
streets that are tipped up at one end.
This is on the dead level, like nearly al.
the streets named in the published list.
All men who have been boys once like
to see boys coasting. Any bitter old
cynic who complains against this sport
was always a bitter old cynic and was
never boy himself. At the same time
boys should not coast where they endan-
ger their own safety or the safety Of
others.-Boston Globe. xs

Spiked to the ground of Jael's tent
lay the dead commander in chief of the
Canaanitish host, General Sisera, not
far from the river Kishon, which was
only dry bed of pebbles when in 1889,
in Palestine, we crossed it, but the gul.

Gated the possibility of great freshets
like the one at the time of the text.
General Sisera had gone out with 900
iron chariots, but he was defeated, and,
his chariot wheels :rter]ncked with the
wheels of other chariots, he could not
retreat fast enough, and SO he leaped to
the ground and ran till, exhausted, he
went into Jael's tent for safety. She
had just been churning, and when he
asked for water she gave him butter
milk, which in the east is considered a
most refreshing drink. Very tired, and
supposing he was safe he went to sleep
upon the floor, but Jael, who had re-
solved upon his death, took tent pin,
long and round and sharp, in one hand
and hammer in her other hand, and,
putting the sharp end of the tent pin to
the forehead Of Sisera. with her other
hand she lifted the hammer and
brought it down OH the head of the pin
with stout stroke. when Sisera strug-

AN AposTRopHE no MOTHERS.

But if you still press the question,
where's mother?" l will tell you
where she is not, though once she was
there. Some of you started with her
likeness in your face and her principles
in your soul. But you have cast her
out. That was an awful thing for you
to do, but you have doneit. That hard,
grinding, dissipated look you never got
from her. If you had seen any one
strike her, you would have struck him
down without much care whether the
blow was just sufficient or fatal; but,
my boy, you have struck her down
struck her innocence from your face and
struck her principles from your soul.
You struck her down. The tent pin
thrt Jael drove three times into the
skull of Sisera was not so cruel as the
stab you have made more than three
times through your mothers heart. But
she is waiting yet, for mothers are slow
to give up their boys-waiting at some
window, it may be window on earth
or at some window in heaven. All 9th
ers may cast you off. Your wife may
seek divorce and have no more patience
with you. Your father may disinherit
you and say, "Let him never again
darken the door of our house." But
there are two persons who do not give
you up-God and mother.
