HOLY sMoKEl"

Some Churches Allowed Pipes and Cigars
 Curing Service Time.
 We often hear men say in answer to urgent invitations from their wives and daughters to accompany them to church: "Oh. if I could only smoke in church I would go," and this is looked upon as D knocl-down argument, for no ono in these days would think of dcsecrating church with the fumes of tobacco. 1t may, therefore, be interest ing to some people to know that there was time when smoking in church was practiced in England and Scot land.
 Sir Walter Scott, in his Heart of Midlothian" refers to one Duncan of Knockunder, nn important parsonage, who smoked during the whole of the sermon from an iron pipe tobacco bor- rowed from other worshipers. We are told that at ''the end of the discourse he knocked the ashes from his pipe, re- placed it in his sporan, returned the to- bacco pouch to it's owner, and joined in tho prayer with deccncy and atten- tion."
 The same practice existed in the Hud- sons Boy territory and some other of the British possessions beyond the seas for some time after the erection of the first churches in those carly settle rncnts. there being a general recourse, at the commencement of tho sermon, to the soothing weed, the minister whit ing until the pipes were fairly under way before proceeding with his dis course.
 It is also an interesting fact that smoking in church was by no means confined to the congregation or even to the minor elcrgymen, for it is recorded that the archbishop of York was once roproved by the vicar of St. Mary's, Nottingham, for attempting to smoke ia the chursh vestry. Rev. John Disnez, of Swinduly, in Lincolnshire, writing on December IS, 1733, to James Granger, s@ys: ,
 "Thc archbishop ordered some of the appositors, or oticr attendants, to bring pipes and tobacco and some liquor for his rcfrcshmcnt after the fatiAue of confirmation, and this com inr to Mr. Disnez's cars he forbade their being brought hither, and with a becoming spirit rcmonstrated with the archbishop upon the irpropricty of his conduct, at the same time telling lis grace that his vc5try should not be converted into smoking room"
 We have no evidence of the fact. but according to tradition smoking was al- iowablc in tho churches of the Amer q ican colonies something over one hun | dred and fifty years ago, but the good sense of the people put stop to it, and 1t is never likely to be revived in this part of the world, so that it is quite safe for men to say they will go to T church when they are allowed to smoke a there.

was on it's step, when suddenly voice
-Lily's voics-sounded in my ears, and
it was sweet and kind.
Thomas" said the voice, "Thoma as,
before you go will you not take count
of the gold and goods and land that you
placed in my keeping?"
Now | turned amazed, and, 10, Lily
came toward me slowly and with out
stretched arms
"Oh, foolish man, ''she whispered low,
"did you think to deceive woman's
heart thus clumsily-you who talked of
the beech in the Hall garden, you who
found your way so we'll to this dark
chamber and spoke the writing in the
ring with the very voice of one who has
been dead so long! Listen, l forgive
that friend of yours his broken troth,
for he was honest in the telling of his
fault, and it is hard for man to live
alone So many years, and in strange
countries come strange adventures.
Moreover, l will say it, still love him
as it seems shat he loves me, though in
truth l grow somewhat old for love,
who have fingered long waiting to find
it beyond my grave"
Thus Lily spoke, sobbing as she spoke,
then my arms closed around her, and
she said no more. And yet as our lips
met thought of Otomie, remembering
her words, and remem bering also that
she had died on this very day year ago.

CHAPTER XXXVII.
AMEN

And now there IS little left for me to
tell.
The tidings of my return and of my
strange adventures among the nations of
the Indies were noised abroad far and
wide, and people came from miles round,
aye, even from Norwich and Yarmouth,
to see me, and [ was pressed to tell my
tale till grew weary of it; also service
of thanksgiving for my safe deliverance
from many dangers by land and sea was
held in the Church of st. Mary's here
in buckingham.
When that ceremony was over and
all people had gone to their homes,
came back again TO the empty church
from the Hall, where abode awhile as
the guest of my sister and her husband,
till Lily and were wed.
And there in the quiet light of the
June evening I knelt in the chancel
upon the rushes that strewed the grave
of my father and my mother and sent
my spirit up toward them in the place
of their eternal rest and to the God who
guards them. A great calm came upon
nae as knelt thus, and felt how mad
had been that oath of mine that as q
lad had sworn to be avenged upon De
Garcia, and | saw how as a tree from 2
seed all my sorrows had grown from it.
But even then could not do other than
hate De Garcia-no, nor can | to this
hour-and after all it was natural that
should desire vengeance on the murderer
of my mother, though the wreaking of
it had best been left in another hand.
Without the little chancel door l met
Lily, who was lingering there, knowing
me to be within, and we spoke together.
Lilly" said, II would ask you some
thing After all that has been, will you
take me for your husband, unworthy as
| amp

Thomas" she answered, speaking very
low and blushing like the wild rose that
bloomed upon grave beside her, land
have never changed my mind. In
deed for many years have looked upon
you as my husband, though l thought
you dead"
''Perhaps it is more than deserve"
said, "but if it is to be say when it shall
be, for youth has left us, and we have
little time to loose"
when you will, Thomas" she an
swered placing her hand in mine.
Within week from that evening we
were wed.

A STORY OF ST. VALENTINES DAY.

airy days, all shine and snow and
jingle and bells-that is, for most
people. To Laddie it was rather
gloomy, though he saw the sun
shine and the snow sparkle and
heard the sleigh bells t1nkle, as
everybody did. But Laddie was
little fellow-very little for 7
years-and he hadn't many ways
of amusing himself when shut up
in the house, especially when
mamma was too weak and tired to
read to him or invent games. This
was the case now, and it was very
hard time for poor Laddie, as you
may imagine. He waited on
mamma quite cheerfully, however,
and even helped Hannah, the
woman who came now and then to
do the heavy housework, with
good grace, but still there were
many empty hours and some very
sad ones.
Mammals headache seemed to
grow worse, instead of better, as
the days went by, and often he saw
her crying quietly. He knew then
that she was thinking of papa, for
she always cried when she thought
or spoke of him. Papa had gone
away in a big ship somewhere,
long ago, when Laddie was baby,
and the ship had been wrecked,
and he never came back. Laddie
often asked if there was no hope of
his ever coming, but mamma
looked so sorry when she SAID,
'I'm afraid not, little one," that
he had about given up trying to
find out any more.
One day, it was the 18th day of
this sparkling February, Hannah
sent Laddie down town on an er-
rand, and he gayly set off, glad of
any chance to be out, if only for a
short time. AS he passed the gay
shops he eagerly looked at the
bright pictures their windows pre-
sented, wishing he were rich
enough to buy some of the lovely
things for mamma.
His cheeks burned with excite.
ment as he looked at the gay pic
lures and thought how surprised
and glad his mamma would be if
he should send her one.
Without stopping to remember
that he owned only three pennies
in the world, and that money was
scarce at home, he began trying to
decide which one of the valentines
would be most appropriate for his
sweetheart mamma. Finally he
chose one which had a blue back
ground, with Cupid riding across
it on a rose colored cloud. The
card wac framed with o1uSh hOr-

PRAWDA'S TRICKS.
He Has Been Trying Choice One on the
State Prison Oficials-His Dead Faint.

Warden s. a. Allen, of the Maine State
Prison. was in the city last evening. In
response to the inquiry of The representa-
tive of the PRESS he said that all his
boarders were getting on WE'LL A. NJ. Praw-
da, recently sentenced for life for killing
Mrs. Myers at Yarmouth, is doing very we'll
now. although he gave the officers some
business at first. 1t was Prawda's choice
to go to work in the blacksmith shop; but
after he had been thererawhile he got, tired
of the work and wanted a place out in the
yard. He is poor mechanic and does not
take to blacksmithing. But the officials
refused to make the change he decided; !;
fit and spasms. They carried him Einto the
guard room and laid him on cot. Warden
Allen felt o f his pulse and found it normal.
He also noticed that when "a spasm would
come on the arm which he was holding did
not twitch as Prawdas other members did.
When the doctor arrived he found also that
the heart was beating normally. Prawda,
however, kept his eyes shut persistently,
and did all in his power to simulate dead
faint. But once convinced that he was
shamming the prison ofh cials took means
which speedily brought him out of Els

FLAWS IN INCOME TAX.
Poitions of the Instructions Issued Re
garding Its Collection Cannot Be En-
forced.

Washington, April 12.--Much additional
income tag litigation is confidently expeced
by the United States supreme court Off
cials, though they have no Information as
to what shape it will take. The regula-
ti3ns issued yesterday by the internal rev.
enue division, attorneys say. cannot lie en-
forced in full. 1t is pointed that the decis-
ion of the Supreme court on Monday wipes
out of the law all reference to incomes
from rent and the statute stands as if in
comes from that source were never mel
TONED. Requirement that returns shall in-
elude Inc amount received from that source
lawyers say, cannot be enforced, as there
is no provision upon which the process can
be based. Every return made since Mon
day, from which mas been omitted the in
come for rents is, in the opinion of these
att orneys, in full compliance with The law.
Another discrimination made by the law
is discovered, attorneys say, where the
wife has an income independent from The
husband, which is less than $4,000. il cannot
be taxed and it need not be included within
his return. If it bs more than $4,000 it must
be added 10 the total of the husbands tax
able income, and but one deduction of $4,000
made from the gross sum. 1t is claimed
that no return at all need be made by per-
sons whose incomes are wholly derived
fr ON rents regardless of the amount.

APPARENTLY SWINDLERs.
Three Men Open An Office and Secure
Money BY An Advertisement.

Last Wednesday, three men inquired of
the janitor of he Oxford building if thera
We're any looms to let in the building
The ia hitor did not like the appearance of
the men. and replied that he didn't think
there were any vacant rooms, but that they
would have to see the owner of the proper
t. Mr.. Chapman. The men were dressed in
manner that, with thei1 general style
made the janItor think they wanted the
rooms in order to operate OF the bank or
else to work some skin game.
The men applied to Mr. Chapman and he
let them have a room. Then they put an
advertisement in a paper that men were
wanted to go to Boston and act as street
bosses. those deserving the positions to
apply at once at.the Oxford building at the
room designated. The advertisement ap-
peared Thursday morning, and before noon
there were eight or nine applicants for the
positions. These applicants had to pay
$3.50 each, and were told 10 meet The men
at the Union station next Monday when
they would all be taken 10 Boston, The
men engaging them to pay the railroad
fares. IL happened that former police
officer made application and asked what
the objection was to his paying his own
swer came that the business wasn't done
that way. This answer-satisfied the ex-
officer that the thing was a swindle. He
notified Marshal Trickey and Deputy Sterl-
ing and couple of policemen in plain
clothes were sent to the Oxford building al
once, but the men were gone. 1t appears
one of them told the janltor that he had
better keep the key of the room, as he and
his comrades were liable TO cone in al
different time and that if he, the janil or.
had the key he could let them in.
The men have not been seen since that
time, Thursday noon. 1t is suspected that
they were satisfied that their little game
was discovered and cleared out with the
eighteen or twenty dollars they had secured
from their Thursday morning clients. The
police have telegrapghed Bangor. Lewiston
and other Maine cities TO look out for them.
