TRYING TO BEAT THE CITY.

There can be no two honest opinions
as to the outrageous injustice of the at
tempt Of the State to recover over six
hundred thousand dollars of this city as
Its share of the tax for taking care of
the State insane.
New York supports Its own insane pau
pers 1t has lands and buildings for that
purpose worth nearly ten million dollars
and 1t expended last year nearly nine
hundred thousand dollars for malnte-
nance and care OF It's unfortunate de
pendents. If the city should be- compelled
to pay the States demand our people
would be taxed twice over
Enough injut tice Is done to the city by
the Increase made every year In the as
sessments by the State Boaru of Equal
cation, which puts on New York an un-
due share OF the general taxation and
the school tax. but when an attempt Is

those who derive benefit from the law for
the support OF the insane poor by the
State the outrage becomes unbearable.
county gets rid OF the expense OF
caring for these unfortunates. and puts
the tax for their support on another
county which derives no benefit whatever

Comptroller Fitch does right to resist
this injustice. II the State law author

The Way to he Loved.

All the real advantages of life have
their roots in virtue, just as the OBJ
servances of polite society sprung first
from the Golden Rule. Everyone, ex-
Cept perhaps the few shrinking spirits
akin to those of Thoreau and Haw-
tho:re, loves to be loved; no one, with
honesty. despises a popularity which
has been GAINED without loss of self
respect. The recipe for such need of af-
lection is very simple, but one which IL.
nevertheless. hard to follow. Love and
you will be loved" is not a paradox.

For u prcttN MnIIS.

No woman is ever distngue who
doesn't walk well. In Europe every
lady of the nobility is an object-lesson
for the common women. The Princess
of Wales is slightly lame, and rarely
walks. but she carries herself superbly,
sitting and standing. Her daughters
move in dignity and grace. They are
neither healthy nor handsome. but their
shoulders are square, their heads are in
the air; their narrow, tight-laced backs
are as straight as shingles. and If the
streets were strewn with f20 notes, they
wouldn't see one of them. For a pretty
walk, little ladies, learn to toe; put n
mirror on the floor, and practise till the
step is light and fantastic. Stage pupils
do 1t. Keep the shoulders still and the
hips quiet Look up. If the chin is
pretty. tilt 1t; throw the chest out and
the stomach in, and, for the sake of
cemininity walk quietly.

Proper foods do more than appease
the appetite. Nourishment is certainly
obtained from such articles as meat,
milk, eggs butter, beans and bread,

hominy, cracked wheat, cornmeal, oat-
