How They Enjoy Life In a Prison In the
Mar0uesas,

How They Enjoy Life In a Prison In the
Marquesas.
That 'the French are good natured
people and make easy masters" was
Robert Louis Stevenson's conclusion
when ne had studied the various pro-
tectorates that serve for governments III
the south sea islands. The Marquesas
group, for instance, is under French
control. Mr.. Stevenson tells in I'm the
South Seas" how he visited the Gala
boose at Tai-o-hae-the port of entry
and found it empty.
From this noontide quietude it must
not be supposed the prison was unten-
anted. The calaboose at Tai-o-hae does
a good business. But some Of its occu-
pants were gardening at the residency,
and the rest were probably at work up
ON the streets, as free as our scavengers
at home, although not SO industrious.
On the approach Of evening they
would be called in like children from
play, and the harbor master, who is al
so the jailer, would go through the
form of locking them up until the
next morning.
town, whether of pleasure or affairs, he
has but to unhook the window shutter,
and if he is back again and the shutter
decently replaced by the hour Of call on
the morrow-he may have met the har-
Dor master in the avenue-there will be
no complaint, far less any punishment.
But this is not all. The charming
French resident, NJ Delarnelle, carried
me one day to the calaboose on an Off
oial visit. In the green court very rag

the island elephantiasis, salutod US,
smiling.
Zone of our political prisoners-an
insurgent from Raiatea, said the resi-
dent, and then TO the jailer, 81 thought
1 had ordered him new pair Of trou-
sers?''
Meanwhile no other convict was to
be eeen.
"WelI," said tho resident, "where
are our prisoners?''
Monsieur the Resident" replied
the jailer, saluting with soldierly for
mality, "as this is feast day let
them go to the chase. F." They were all
upon the mountains hunting goats.
Presently we came to the quarters of
the women, likewise deserted.
"Where are our good ladies?" asked
the resident, and the jailer cheerfully
responded, ~ think, monsieur, that
they have gone somewhere TO make
visit.
1t had been the design Of M. Delar-
nellie, who was much in love with the
whimsicalities of his small realm, to
elicit something comioal, but not even
he expected anything SO perfect as the
last.
To complete the picture Of convict
life in Tai-o-hae, it remains to be add
ed that these criminals draw salary
as regularly as the president of the re-
public. Ten sous day is their hire.
Thus they have money, food, shelter,
clothing, and, was about to write,

A Crime of Women.

According to the Mosaic law, person
passing birds nest, either in the fields
or in the trees, should leave the bird,
its eggs or its young unframed. But
now, $500 years later, 10 Christian
land, by Christian men and boys, for
Christian women, millions of birds are
annually snatched from their mes ., leav'
ing untold numbers of eggs and starving
young ones TO perish, in order that the
so.called Christian woman Of our land
might make walking undertaking eslab-
lishments Of themselves by wearing the
corpses Of mangled birds upon their hats
all this being done because 1t is the
style. II you women wore these dead
birds where you could see them, 1t might
be different. But to place them upon
your heads, where you can't see them
after you leave the looking glass, just
to satisfy your vanity, makes the crime
infinitely worse. Rev. o. p. Clifford,

A Dlvlneny-Appoln,ea Occupation

We think that, in central, II Is poor
policy-if not something worse-to dis
courage and dishr.rten the farmers Of the
country by dwelling too much upon the
dark side Of their occupation, for mere
political effect. This 10 no way healps
th EN-, but leads TO discomfort and dis
satisfaction. Why not dwell more upon
the bright side of this dvinely appointed
occupation Of the tilling of the ground,
ont OF which comes all the basic wealth of
the world
The recent campaign, in spite OF the
politicians, brought out some interesting
facts as TO the real condition OF the farmers
in various parts of the country.
Rev. MIR. Cromwell of Pennsylvania,
spending the Summer months in New
England, says that, upon careful obser-
walton, the hill farms in that State do pay
In the hands OF industrious, common
sense men, who make fortunes upon them.
AS striking illustration, he gives the
figures for one such farm, quite stony,
situated on the top and sides of a rugged
hill, IL miles from any railroad. The
owner bought the farm in 1887 for $2700,
and gave u mortgage for $4,000 to u saw
ings bank at 8 per cent. Besides raising
corn and potatoes and looking after a
garden OF two acres, the owner has put 10
his barn an average hay crop of 100 tons.
One year he was offered $40 ton for all
OF 1t in the barn, and the lowest figure
hay has reached at any time has been $40
per ton. Striking a conservative average
for five years. the hay in his barn has
been worth $15 ton at some one season
OF each year, so that his hay crop alone
was worth in cash $500 year, which is
the interest on $50, 200 year at the usual
rate OF invested capital in the United States
The cost OF all the fertilizer used and the.
total expense of fencing and harvesting
was only $242 year, allowing interest
for invested actual capital in the land -

Dutter and Cream as Medicine.

One of the favorite remedies of ply
sicians is cod liver oil. and why is one
of the mysteries of the world of medi-
cine, when all there il about it is an oil
or fatty substance is wanted that is
easily digested and quite as easily as
simulated, fish oil being appropriated
with small outlay of digestive power.
Why cod liver oil, product Of the de-
composition of fish refuse, should ever
have been CHANGED upon when butter
and cream are natures supply and at
once the most readily obtainable is un-
explainable While any one can take
cream or butter the consuming Of fish
oil requires the fortitude of II saint and
the heroism of martyr, and, as we
| know, the oil does lot agree with anany
| and is hard of digestion in others. Now,
it has been demonstrated that fresh, I'M
sailed butter is rather more digestible
than oil and is pleasant to take, ON
| thinly cut slices of bread, and as high
as four ounces day of this butter can
be eaten with impunity by even deli
cate persons, and cream can be taken to
the full desire of the patient. Where
one is recovering from prostrating sick
ness and the body needs nourishment
this fresh butter, it is now asserted, has
no equal in building up the wasted It's
sues of the body, and as u stimulant
very hot, fresh milk is without rival,
outside of the use of alcohol, which
last is better left alone, when possible.
Growing children may be greatly bene-
fitted by indulging in generous amounts
Of butter, though it may seem expen-
sive, but it may prove the cheapest in
the end. Either of these remedies can
be taken without u doctors prescrip-
ton and is outside of the kill or cure
warrant. -Practica Farmer.

Changes in the Tax Law.

The Equal Taxation Committee OF the
State Board OF Trade held a meeting in
Trenton recently, at which they reported
several recommendations for amendments
to the State Tax laws in the interest of

Assessors as it now exists. Make all As.
SCISSORS OF the State subject to the State
Board OF Taxation, to be removed by said
board for cause after fair trial before the

Do away with all local charters that now
affect the general State Tax laws, and
make all taxing districts subject to the
State law and the State Board OF Taxation.
All assessments to be made and COM
pleted between Jan. | and Aug. l of each
year, assessment notices to be delivered
during the first two weeks in August and
be advertised in the papers.
There shall be poll, school, personal
and real estate tax.
All male householders shall be assessed
81 year as school tax. All corporation
stocks and bonds to be assessed at the
home office Of such corporation, when 10
the State, and through the individual when
holding the stocks or bonds OF foreign
corporation.
All real estate shall be assessed accord
ing to Its true value.

Hydrophobia Vaccination.

1t is NOW proposed that instead of

Pasteur method, dogs should be inocu-
lated with the virus of rabies, in the
hope that they may thereby be made

bite of mad dog, just as human sub
