Boston, Dec IA special dispatch to The

able that Finance Minister Lamantour will soon
take up some minor matters OF tariff reform,
pecially giving attention articles which, owing
to high exchange and heavy duties combined, do
not yield the Government revenue. He is still
in favor of tariff reform. but believes the country
must go slowly in changing the tariff. especially
as the great reform OF abolshing interstate and
intermunic!pal duties Is about TO go into effect de-
pr,ving the Government of accustomed revenue.
The Government at present is obliged TO provide
revenue TO make good the loss occasioned by this
sweeping reform. which removes ancient obstacles

with the growth OF every traffic
This is the most important fiscal reform in Mex

followed by taxation of lands. which will break

cried the Justice. My good fellow, we

VII-The Distinguished Stranger.
Once upon a time there came to this
earth a visitor from a neighboring
planet. And it was met at the place of
descent by a great philosopher, who
was to show him everything.
First of all they came through a
wood, and the stranger looked upon the
trees. Whom have we here?" he said.
These are only vegetables - said the
philosopher. HThey are alive but not
at all interesting"
81 don't know about that said the
stranger. They seem to have very
good manners. Do they never speak?''
''They lack the gift" said the phil
osopher
Yet I think hear them sing" said
the other.
THAT is only the wind among the
leaves" said the philosopher. Il will
explain to you the theory of winds; it
is very interesting
WELL" said the stranger, ct wish I
knew what they were thinking"
They cannot Think said the phil
osopher
81 don't know about that" returned
the stranger, and then laying his hand
upon the trunk: 81 like these people"
said he.
''They are not people at all,n said the
philosopher. Come along"
Next they came through a meadow
where there were cows.
These are very dirty people," said
the stranger.
''They are not people at aT,'' said the
philosopher; and he explained what a
cow is in scientific words which [ have
forgotten
THAT is. all one to me.' said the
stranger. "But why do they. never look
up?'
Because they are griminivorous.''
said the philosopher; land to live upon
grass, which is not highly nutritious,
requires SO close an attention to bust
ness that they have no time to think
or speak. or look at the scenery. or
keep themselves clean"
Well" said the stranger, chat is
one way to live no doubt. But [ prefer
the people with the green heads
Next they came into a city, and the
streets We're full of men and women.
These are very odd people," said the
stranger.
!Acy are lne people OIL the greatest

osopher.
Are they, indeed?" said the strang-
er. They scarcely look So"

(Tshe fable, as form of literary art,
had at all times a great attraction for
Mr.. Stevenson, and in an early re-
view at Lord Lytton's FABLES and
Song he attempted to define some of
its proper aims and methods. TO this
~class of work, according to his con-
ception Of the matter. belonged essen
italy. several of his own shorter, semi
supernatural stories, such as ''Win Of
the Mill" and "Markheim." He was ac-
customed also to try his hand occa-
sionally on the composition of fables
in a stricter sense, and i'll the conven-
tional brief and concentrated form. By
the winter of 1888 he had enough of
these by him, together with a few
others running to great length, and
conceived in a more mystic and leg
endaly vein, to enable him, as he
thought, to see his way towards maxi
ing a book of them. Then came his
voyage in the Pacific and residence in
Samoa. In the multitude of new inter
ests and images which filled his mind
during the last six years of his life,
he seems to have given little thought

1t is true that municipal affairs are,
generally speaking. conducted here
more economically and much more
thoroughly than is the case in Amer
lean cities. Thus in S72 streets of Ber-
lin, covering a total area of 6,7S0,OO0
square metres, were cleaned at an
annual expenditure of million
marks (half million dollars. Now
the area of Berlin streets, hav-
ing increased by 1895 to over eight
million ouare metres the streets are
cleaned for but S40O, 600 and cleaned
better than in any other large city in
the world This is due to system, to
the excellent pavements. constantly
renewed and mended. And to machine
sweeping, which costs 90 per cent. less
than the sweeping done by hand It
is the slime with street sprinkling.
This is done during the season when
ever needed; on hot, dusty days twice,
and 100000 cubic metres of water are
used up in the thorough system of
sprinkling between April LIST and No

expense of but 1854, 900 marks this
